Quick Bite

This is a funny book. Reading the back of the book or the synopsis on Goodreads, I really should have realized that "A Quick Bite" by Lynsay Sands was going to read on the light side. But when I started giggling and finally laughing out loud, I realized that I was reading this book without the slightest inkling as to what I was getting into. I bought this book ages ago and just let it sit there, so I had completely forgotten what to expect. Turns out it's light, sweet, quirky, sexy and fun. It almost reads more like chick-lit book…until the smokin' scenes start up with the thrusting and the biting… Then there is no mistaking that you are reading a paranormal romance title!

Lissianna is a charming character. She's smart and sweet and caring. She's also a vampire who faints at the sight of blood. In Lynsay's world, vampires are unknown to the general public and feed from bagged blood - unless you are a special case, as is Lissi. Her mother, Marguerite, desperately wants to help find a cure to Lissi's fear of blood. She reads about a psychologist who specializes in phobias…and brings him home for Lissianna as her birthday present!

Dr. Greg Hewitt is about to leave for his first vacation in over 8 years. That is until he finds himself willingly getting inside the trunk of a lovely woman's car and letting her tie him to a bed. Greg is kicking himself for getting into his situation. His internal dialogue while he's trying to figure out what to do is amusing. He's an intellectual and very smart…but he's still a man. *wink wink* He and Lissi are really cute together.

I really enjoyed every character in this book. The cousins are fantastic! I especially loved Thomas. From his pretending to be a bubble head to his wearing skin tight Spider Man pajamas, he provided many of the laugh out loud moments. There is a villain, but he's more of a nuisance…like a fly, so the overall conflict in the story is pretty low. And even though the story is somewhat predictable, it's still a joy to read because the characters are adorable.

I was told by those who have read them that the rest of the books in the Argeneau series are written on the light side, and if that is indeed the case, I think I've found my go-to books after I've read a few heavy and very emotional books in a row and I need to 'lighten up'. Smart, witty and fun. "A Quick Bite" is a good start to a long running series. And long running is right! Lynsay recently released book number 13 of the Argeneau series and book number 14 is due out in stores this November.

Centuries old vamps having a slumber party, six females in rainbow bright colored baby dolls & one male in Spiderman PJ's, very funny!

I love the Canadian content & for the Torontonian readers as you may have already deduced from your own personal experience… 'Actually, the Eaton Center and the underground Path were the perfect places for a vampire to hang out, period.' Best to keep that in mind whilst out on a Saturday night excursion in downtown Toronto!

A great offering from Sands, I like her version of Immortals evolving from Nano Technolgy & the Argeneau family offering vastly different characters each of who offer some appeal to the reader. I look forward to reading each of their individual perspectives in the books to come.

this was the first lynsay sands book i ever read and it is one of my favourites. it is book that you cant put down because you want to know what comes next. it is also rather funny!

Mother's always have the best of intentions, but this just made me laugh how Greg and Lissianna met and how their love began! Once you start this series you just want more and more. The character's are funny, strong, smart, and sexy!
