A Killer First Date is set between Out for Blood and Bleeding Hearts, where Nicholas and Lucy have finally got round to having their first date at Lucy’s school carnival with Quinn and Hunter but with the Drakes nothing stays calm and simple.

This is told from the POV of both Lucy and Hunter and it has the mixture of action, romance and humour of all Harvey’s novels but for 69p it is a bargain.

What I really like about this novella is how Nicholas and Lucy’s relationship has evolved since My Love Lies Bleeding and how they act together now they have accepted their feelings for each other.

I really like this novella and would recommend this to anyone who has read the first three books in the Drake Chronicles.

Dating the Drake boys should come with hazard pay. Seriously beginning to think this family is cursed. Even going to the fair is riddled with dangers and that's even if the newly changed vamps can resist the temptation of their very human girlfriends. Movies and popcorn at home sounds like the way forward. this book features Lucy and Hunter on dates with Nicholas and Quinn. Wierdly I think Hunter appreciates dates with a little hunting on the side so dating one of the Drakes is perfect. Lucy on the other hand though she is vicious would like a date with a few less life threatening instances. Perhaps one day...

Pretty much what it reads on the tin: A killer first date! A mix of our couples, a match of crazy that loves to throw itself in at every available turn, while people are trying to get in a good time finally, around all the insanity happening in the shotgun pace of the books themselves.

Delightful!

So, when I finished the last book of The Drake Chronicles, there was only one thing left to do; read the e-novellas, and this was the last of the e-novellas for me to read. I sad that this was the last time I'd get to read a book from the series for the first time. I have been reading them since 2010, so I have become quite attached to the characters, and I believe that this is a fitting good-bye to The characters I have come to love so much. I'll miss them and they'll always hold a special place in my heart so this book marks good-bye, I guess. Someone reading this is probably thinking, "Honey, they're fictional characters, are you really having a chick-lit moment over them?" Well, yes, I am, because this has been one of my all time favorite book series, and I have grown very attached. In, fact I am growing very nostalgic right now.

Too short, but utterly fantastic like all the other books nonetheless. I absolutely adore Lucy's smart ass comments. And Nickolas.. I agree with Nathan. Yummy.

I absolutely love Hunter & Quinn double dating with Lucy & Nick. This was definitely an interesting read and absolutely hilarious. Quinn's charm jumps right out of the page and makes you laugh and feel all warm and fuzzy. This was one of my favorite short stories alyxandria has wrote.

So this e-book finds place after the third book in The Drake Chronicles series: "Out For Blood", which by the way is my favorite of the series so far. The story follows Lucy and Nicholas and also Hunter and Quinn. They all go on their first real date on a carnival. Of course it doesn't turn out the way they all want.
I was really happy to read more about Quinn and Hunter because Quinn is my favorite Drake brother and I think Hunter is the perfect girl for him. I just love the way they are together. And Quinn is the reason why Out For Blood is my favorite Drake book.
As always the story was excellent. A fast, cute read.
I was really excited to read this one because I love The Drake Chronicles a lot. Actually, I just love everything Alyxandra Harvey writes. She never ever has disappoint me with any of her books and I've read all of them. All five stars. So be sure to check them out!
