SYNOPSIS FROM GOODREADS:
After 130 years, you'd think I would know better than to go looking for trouble, but I just can't seem to help myself. The council wants me to catch a werewolf. I just want to paint my nails. Rose is a bitchy sarcastic vampire that ends up hunting a werewolf in, of all places, Las Vegas. She finds very quickly that things are not going to go as planned.
MY REVIEW:
I received this e-book for review from Bewitching Book Tours as part of the author's virtual book tour. I did not receive any compensation for my review, and the views expressed herein are my own.
A book with both vampires AND werewolves? What could be better? The book cover of the female vampire biting into the male is very eye-catching and appealing. The book trailer is equally appealing. I should have loved this book...I wanted to love this book...but there are two reasons primarily why this didn't happen and both can be remedied.
I actually think the plot of the story is pretty good: A vampire is hired to hunt down a werewolf. I think that the book could potentially be very good with more character development which, perhaps, could be achieved by extending the length of the novella. It is fun to enjoy a bad-ass protagonist like Rose, but I think she could be even better! I particularly liked the character of Bobbie, the fire witch.
Unfortunately, the review copy that I was given is fraught with grammatical and spelling errors, which made it difficult to read and interfered with my enjoyment of the book.
With a good editor and more character depth, the book could be improved.

Oh what a pity, and it does look as though it has potential but I also find it quite irritating when the characters are superficial, not developed enough or even when more meat has not been added to the story. It feels like a wasted idea.
