Review: Nice Girls Don't Date Dead Men - Molly Harper

Nice Girls Don't Dead Men
With her best friend Zeb’s Titanic-themed wedding looming ahead, new vampire Jane Jameson struggles to develop her budding relationship with her enigmatic sire, Gabriel. It seems unfair that she’s expected to master undead dating while dealing with a groom heading for a nuptial nervous breakdown, his hostile werewolf in-laws, and the ugliest bridesmaid dress in the history of marriage. Meanwhile, the passing of Jane’s future step-grandpa puts Grandma Ruthie back on the market. Her new fiancÉ, Wilbur, has his own history of suspiciously dead spouses, and he may or may not have died ten years ago. Half-Moon Hollow’s own Black Widow has finally met her match. Should Jane warn her grandmother of Wilbur’s marital habits or let things run their course? Will Jane always be an undead bridesmaid, never the undead bride? 

My thoughts:
I am gonna make this short, I really should write reviews at once, as the flow is no longer there two days later.

The series is fun and cute. It's good, it does not wow me, but then paranormal almost never do. I like the books, I just do not go rant crazy.

Jane is cool, and she loves books! What is there not to like. Though I am not sure about her and her sire Gabriel. Sure the angry sex in the last book was nice but I just do not trust him. I like his friend Dick more and that is sadly a lost cause. I like Zed more, and he is getting in this book. Maybe if Gabriel changes a bit, but then nothing is really wrong anyway. I just do not click (but the angry sex was awesome! And he is hot).

Conclusion:
But as for the book, it was fun, I like the ghosts, the trouble with the wedding and I hope Jane gets a HEA in the end.

    1. No..more like they are angry and they have sex. And then the sex is so awesome that they forget for a while why they were angry. Oh and they are angry while jumping on each other too. It's more like fight sex...messed up

  11. I love Molly Harper's Naked Werewolf series, and I've been wanting to try this one. If Jane is a book girl, then I know I'd like her.

  16. I have not read this series. Like you, I read paranormal and enjoy it, but am seldom wowed to the point of a raving review.
    This does sound like a cute book to fill in the gaps though. Thank you for your review.

  18. This series does sound fun but I'm not sure if it is for me. I like my cutesy and my romance separate from my paranormal. Hmmm...
