The story probably won't be terrible if you like a little "will they won't they" but there are zero surprises. There's so little tension given the context of vampire rivalry and the human-vampire relationship. The main characters' respective guilt is exhausting rather than touching because it's the thing they keep going back to; it's like their lives have no other meaning or even activity to distract them from the guilt. Some of the vampire details, like having blood "fusion cuisine," veer into cozy territory (because they're represented a little too ridiculously for fantasy), but there's too much fainting-couch-level drama for a cozy in my opinion.
It's not bad, but if you find it not to your liking in the first 10% you can safely abandon it for something else.
