Spoopy romance
From different worlds
Amusing misunderstandings
My Vampire Plus-One was highly entertaining, quippy and fun. Between the pages was a real connection but I was allured to this story for the spoopy, vampiric clash with the human world.
Amelia was the straight-laced accountant who literally bumped into Reggie, a real-life bump in the night. These two fake dated their way into misapprehensions about one another and instead of it being frustrating, it was silly-fun. I enjoyed seeing the eventual realisation that Amelia came to, it was hilarious.
I was less keen on the back story of Reggie being on a vampiric wanted list and that whole plot line. I did like seeing the previous couple feature and being able to see their story move on through others' eyes.
Overall, this was fun and engaging but I don't think it will stay with me long. I'd definitely read more from the series/author however.
