Raven and Alexander can't seem to get a minute alone. No sooner have Alexander's parents returned to Romania (read ROYAL BLOOD) than another visitor has come knocking on the mansion's door. This time, it's Sebastian. Sebastian is Alexander's best friend from Romania. Raven is surprised. Alexander has never talked much about his old home, and now, not only has she just met his parents, she now gets to grill his best friend for hints of Alexander's history.
Sebastian can't understand how Alexander can be around Raven and not be tempted to turn her into a vampire. Sebastian has met Raven's best friend, Becky, and is instantly hypnotized by her. Raven has to take it upon herself to ensure that Sebastian doesn't do anything to Becky. She reminds him constantly of Becky's boyfriend, Matt, but Sebastian keeps turning up in odd places...like Becky's barn.
In order to find Sebastian a nice vampire girl he can settle down with, Raven and Alexander decide to throw a party at the mansion. A small intimate party with some special girls that Raven knows from the Coffin Club.
But as can be expected with the VAMPIRE KISSES series, the party doesn't go off quite as planned. Raven is afraid Becky will learn about the party and be miffed she wasn't invited. Raven's nemesis, Trevor, caught doodles in Raven's notebook hinting at a party. And Onyx and Scarlet are late showing up. It isn't until totally unexpected and uninvited guests show up to the party that things get really interesting.
Ms. Schreiber leaves the reader dangling when the final page is turned...again! How frustrating! But as with the previous installments, it just makes the reader eager for more!
Raven and Alexander are shown in a lighter context in LOVE BITES. Alexander is finally adapting to the current century with new technology (thanks to Sebastian), and Raven tries to play matchmaker and host a party. The story flows quickly and as always is entertaining until the final page. Even though the story moves fast, I can never get enough of Raven and Alexander. They are the most interesting pair, and that's what makes them so fun to read about.

Book 7 in the Vampire Kisses series.
In this book I felt a bit disconnected, from the characters, the settings and situations. Though a few interesting things happened with Alexander's best friend coming to town and all of the consequences that brought with it. I wasn't thrilled.
It all felt rushed, immature, annoying, disjointed and same ole, same ole.
At this point all of the books are starting to feel like, Ive been here, Ive done this. We are starting to see the same thing in each book.
Ill stick with it, as there are only two more books left. Ive come this far and I have to find out if Raven will finally become a vampire but in the end, I dont think that will happen.
