I received the ebook in exchange for honest review.
When starting this story expected it to be sappy and not really my favorite kind of read. Luckily I was wrong. It is a well-written, quick paced and interesting story, although it's clearly directed to teens between 16 and 20 (i would say)...

Buffy the Vampire Slayer introduced a whole new type of heroine to the vampire tradition. No longer were women damsels in distress, waiting for some hero to save them. They were saving themselves and kicking some butt in the process. Following Buffy, you had Sookie Stackhouse (the novel heroine, not the True Blood heroine), Jeaniene Frost’s Cat Crawfield from the Night Huntress series, and Chloe Neill’s Merit from The Chicagoland Vampires to name a few of the heroines who continued to “give rather than receive.” No damsels in distress were these ladies.
As such, I really was looking forward to Revenge is Sweet written by Berni Stevens, from my new favorite publisher, Choc Lit. Unfortunately, the heroine, who made her debut in Dance Until Dark, which I didn’t read, is a damsel in distress and what’s worse is that she is the type who makes really bad, impetuous decisions that cost others their lives.
