"Two of my favourite things in one! A cowboy vampire!"

Fresh Fiction Review

The Braddock Boys: Brent
Kimberly Raye

Reviewed by Aubrey MacDougall
Posted October 18, 2010

Romance Series

At first I was a bit skeptical about how this concept would work. A man who is a cowboy and a vampire? It's a marriage of my two favorite themes. Brent is a vampire who is in town for his brother's wedding. Abby is career military and looking for a man who has gone AWOL. She doesn't have the best self-esteem and thinks she is fat and ugly.

Abby does not know Brent is a vampire. She is very much attracted to him. However, she does not see how he would ever be attracted to her. After buying clothes at the local boutique, she attempts to seduce Brent. He refuses at first because he doesn't want to get close to anyone. Abby is not looking for long-term, so she believes she is perfect for Brent. Will these two misfits find love? Solace in each other? Will Abby find out that Brent is a vampire?

While not my favorite book, it was enjoyable and I laughed out loud in parts. I think if it had been a better book if it were longer to allow for more explanation of what was happening and more plot development. At times, their was just too much going on in a very short period of time and it took away from the book as a whole. I very much loved the writing style and dialogue.

SUMMARY

Brent Braddock flouts the rules. He's the ultimate charmer with his cocky wink and slow molten grin! But there's still too much range left to ride for a cowboy vampire like him to consider settling down.

Then he meets Command Master Chief Petty Officer Abigail Trent. She goes strictly by the books and is always the toughest one in the room. But damn, when Brent gets an eyeful—and then some!—of what's underneath her very unfeminine clothes… Oh, yeah, she's definitely all woman.

And she's the first one to make Brent think about ending his love 'em and leave 'em ways!

But can a woman who champions all things good and a…well…a vampire make it work? Only if bad boy Brent can regain the one thing forever denied to him…his humanity.
