<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"><em><strong>Love, Vampire Style</strong></em> is a strange offbeat little story that will, never the less, capture your imagination and hold your attention until the very last sentence. The main character goes through a mental metamorphosis as he changes from a spoiled little boy into a loyal and loving man. The best part of the book is the end, why you ask…..Read it and find out.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">&lt;img src=&quot;http://manicreaders.com/images/reviewicons/3-5 Stars Spinning.gif&quot; width=&quot;150&quot; height=&quot;150&quot; alt=&quot;3.5 Star Spinning&quot; /&gt;</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">http://www.longandshortreviews.com/LASR/1008/LoveVampireStyle-TS.htm</p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><p><strong><em>Love, Vampire Style</em></strong> was a light vampire romance of family obligations and love. Val loved his family, and had always honored his brother, yet he wished to be able to follow his heart. He didn't think it was fair that because his brother had married a human, he could not. These are simple, common, everyday issues in the lives of vampires. I enjoyed the carefree feel of the story. At times, I did find Val to be a little immature for his centuries, but perhaps as vampires live longer, they take a bit longer to mature. I would like to return to see some of his relatives find their mates. </p> <p>Kathy Andrico - KathysReviewCorner.com </p> <p class="MsoNormal">http://www.kathysreviewcorner.com/reviews/SweeneyToniLoveVampireStyle.html</p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12pt;"><em>Love Vampire Style</em> is a short, enjoyable read, which you can finish within an hour—great for a lunch break when you have no errands to run. <br /><br /> Valerius is such a warm and real character that you’ll find yourself liking him in spite of his rebellious streak. Ms. Sweeney does a wonderful job of developing Valerius within the short confines of the story, making him an engaging character with a great sense of humor. <br /><br /> I’m always looking for intriguing settings in the books I read—and who can resist the ruins of an old castle? I certainly can’t. A place like that begs to be explored, and it also brings atmosphere to the plot. <em>Love Vampire Style</em> has all of that and more. <br /><br /> Ms. Sweeney also throws in a mild twist near the end, which will leave you with an astonished grin. <br /><br /> Though <em>Love Vampire Style</em> is just a small bite of a story, it’s a good bite, and, with a great main character and a savory <a href="http://www.nightsandweekends.com/articles/08/NW0800507.php"><span class="klink"><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">love story</span></span></a>, it’s well worth your time to read. <br /><br /> I’ve always enjoyed anything written by Ms. Sweeney—and <em>Love Vampire Style</em> is no exception. I look forward to reading anything she writes in the future. </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12pt;"> </p><p></p> <span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:'Times New Roman';">http://www.simplyromancereviews.com/srrreviews/lovevampirestyle.aspx</span> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p></p>
