This was an...Okay book. Lacking in Story completely, some steamy sex, but if it's more than that you want, best to look elsewhere.

This was a really cute book. The stories were long enough to be intresting but not too long to be boring. Really good quick reads.

Nice trio of vampire love stories. MacAlister & Ashley ones are most entertaining. Webber is new author for me.

Fun, sexy vampires! Katie Macalister's short story ties right in with her vampire and guardian novels. Quirky characters, modern and upbeat.
Loved it.

katie macalisters story was a disappointment. Story needed to be a book by itself. Seemed to be incomplete. enjoyed the other two storys and will get books by both.

This was an entertaining book. I had never read anything by Minda Webber and it was a good chance to try her out - I liked her. I thought all the stories were good and the book was not a time-waster.

Not necessarily one for the keeper shelf but it's still entertaining. 3 quick, lite reads about vampires that don't fall in line with the typical dark, brooding vampire theme. Worth a trade a credit.

An ok read, the Jennifer Ashley story, Viva Las Vampires, being the best of the three, Katie Macalister's "Bring Out Your Dead" is alright, except for one character who speaks in sort of a fractured french which got on my nerves. Minda Webber has never been a favorite of mine, I have yet to get through one of her books and her short story was no different, her writing style just grates me the wrong way I guess because many others like her.

Three tales from three different authors about vampire romance. Cute, but nothing special,unless you're a vampire lover. A fast read.

I liked the Webber story, but couldn't get into the other two - despite being a Macalister fan.

JUST ONE SIP is a delightful trio of short romance novels with that paranormal twist--or I guess you could call them short paranormal novels with a nice romantic twist. In any case, cute romps!

From back cover:
---VIVA LAS VAMPIRES by Jennifer Ashley
A sunbathing vamp in Vegas? No way! Meredith Black is absolutely positive the tanned god with the gorgeous smile couldn't have possibly made her his for eternity with just one glance. But he'll sure have fun proving it.
---BRING OUT YOUR DEAD by Katie MacAlister
Battling a demon lord is all in a day's work for the Dark One named Sebastian. But now he must take on a horde of unhappy zombies and an obnoxious, know-it-all teen vampire if he wants to win the hand of the one woman who can make him whole.
---LUCY AND THE CRYPT CASANOVA by Minda Webber
Talk show host Lucy Campbell has made a career of interviewing Druid witches, trolls, and an occasional goblin. But now she wants more. Only she wasn't expecting to get involved with a vampire detective who has a slight incubus problem.

Three mini Vampire stories. They're pretty Good
froot avatar reviewed Just One Sip: Viva Las Vampires / Bring Out Your Dead / Lucy and the Crypt Casanova on + 178 more book reviews
3 short stories were nothing extraordinary and felt recycled. The first "Viva Las Vampires" was steamy and entertaining but felt rushed and lacking some points. It felt like a kernal to something that could be good. Meredith a young writer researching her new novel gets involved with Stefan master vampire...blah..heard it before..

"Bring Out Your Dead" I read three pages and skipped to the next story. It was sarcastically annoying and dumb.

"Lucy & the Crypt Casanova" lost my interest after the first chapter.

If you want a good read, this is not it.

Fun stories. Quick reading.
1PilatesMom avatar reviewed Just One Sip: Viva Las Vampires / Bring Out Your Dead / Lucy and the Crypt Casanova on
This is 3 stories in one book, each by a different author. Great for sampling short works from these 3 talented ladies. I've read a few of Katie MacAlister's Dard Ones books and her story (the second) was similar to those books. I liked the first story Viva Las Vampires by Jannifer Ashley the best. (It's the story where the title of the book comes from) Her vampires were the best drawn and gave them some weaknesses and some humor, esp Mario - yum! Gave the book 3 stars for a fun beach-type read.

The first 2 stories in this book were delightful! They have a lot of comedy along with the vampire theme. The third was a little harder to get into and was very wacky but it was cute once you got past the first part.
