This book was so sugary sweet, my teeth hurt.

Okay, so let me get the scary stuff out of the way. There is a vampire in the book.
Ok, done. Thats all.

Now for the amazing coincidences. This very handsome vampire happens to live isolated on a mountain and happens to come across a very beautiful young woman. They (the aforementioned beautiful vampire and beautiful girl) happen to both love literary classics, playing the piano and happen to both work in the field of medicine (actually, both happened to have previously worked in the field of medicine- again amazing coincidences). You couldnt find a better match if you searched them out on match.com.

If you want a sweet and tender romance, this is your book. If you want an urban fantasy, run away.

I didnt mind the end especially since I read the authors note.

Overall, I liked it enough to finish it but it just was too sweet, and simple for my taste.
