I received an eARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
I have to admit: I requested this as soon as I saw the name of the publisher because I've read enough Wattpad stories to be curious about what, exactly, a Wattpad book would be.
The answer: this is a pretty standard vampire novel with a bit of romance. And it's completely fine! If you like vampire stories, this will certainly satisfy your need for something of a higher caliber than Twilight. The shift from first-person to third-person POV is disarming enough that it annoyed me as I was reading, but it's a pet peeve of mine (just pick one!), so it may not bother you as much. I enjoyed reading it and was pleasantly surprised by how endearing the side characters are, but I don't feel the immediate need to devour a sequel.
