A review by diaryofthebookdragon
High Stakes by Erin McCarthy
3.0
*** 3½ stars ***
Ethan Carrick is not just an ordinary vampire. He is 900 year old and he has seen it all. Nothing can surprise him anymore. So with his experience he is the perfect candidate for the president of the vampire nation. He just needs a fiance to further advertise his calm and professional image.
The only thing shorter than Alexis Baldizzi is her temper. When something gets on her nerve she is not ashamed to voice her opinion loudly and clearly for everyone. And the thing that irritates her most is pompous casino owner Ethan Carrick.
When these two opposites collide, sparks will fly (and some karate chops). Ethan will become 'Garlic' and Alexis 'BB' aka. 'Ball Buster'.
Light and funny reads. If characters were a little bit better developed, I would have given it maybe even 4 stars.
