This is a nice little break from the series. Happy, sad, steamy, interesting story. I'm very much ok with the universe expanding like this. I wonder if we'll meet these characters in the main story.

Really enjoyable.
4 stars It was a fun story and it made me feel like I was back in Sookie's world. I liked it because it takes place in the sookie realm it's so easy to digest. It reads really fast, and it doesn't feel like a short less than 100 page book, and no lie I like it. A lot
It's very "Bill and Sookie" like. A girl with a troubled past, changes her name and moves to a new town to get a fresh start meets a vampire who has never met anyone of the likes of her in many years. His a bit of the whole, "strong and silent" type with an Irish accent. And they fall in some serious like. He wants to save her and she is scared for her safety and all those all around her. I like it. It's making me miss the Sookie Stackhouse books. The ending was kinda of predictable, but it was still an awesome story.

This was a quick read and I enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed reading the True Blood series. It took less than a day to read, but for a short story the plot was quite good and there wasn't too much unnecessary information, allowing an easy flow towards the end.

Perhaps a 3.25.
It was good. I cared about the characters and could believe the conflict. It was nice to revisit characters from an earlier novel that I enjoyed.
It even had some smexy.

I do dearly love the Sookie Stackhouse universe, so I was very excited to find a bunch of short stories I hadn't read yet today. :)
A short story about Sean and Layla O'Rourke was such a surprise (they only got a bit part in All Together Dead) but a very welcome one. So enjoyable.
Except for the bit with Martha. I cried over a fictional kitty and I'm not ashamed.
