Even though a small part of this book annoyed me, I did enjoy the story and getting to know Marie and Josh. Marie is sick and determined to be changed so that she won't die but while dealing with her disease, she falls for Josh. They are a wonderful couple that I enjoyed getting to know.

This is one of those books which made me wonder how the supernatural creatures in this series have managed to exist for so long. Because they're just... a little clueless.
Marie is an employee of a supernatural dating agency and uses the resources at hand to help her find a supernatural willing to turn her. She's not picky - vampire, wereshifter, she'd even take a fae. She's not looking for a long term commitment. She just wants to live forever. Well she says she only wants to cure the sleep disorder she has which is killing her.
How do all the supernaturals with their magical senses and all that jazz not realise there's something wrong? And they don't realise she's associating with vampires etc. considering they can smell danger a mile off?
It's an okay story. I didn't warm to Marie (mostly because of her made up sounding disease and partly because of how stupid I found her to be). But her relationship with Josh

was sweet when it was actually happening. They had a lot of drama and not a huge amount of rationale to why they deserved each other. But that's their problem now. Because changing someone to an immortal after one tumble in the sheets is ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA.thegeekyblogger's review against another edition

5 Stars It was amazing!
If I do actually have something to say about a book other than what my enjoyment factor was, I will write a review and share my thoughts. If I say I didn’t like a book but there wasn’t anything about it that I thought needed to be shared, then that’s it, I just didn’t like it.
If you’d like to start a discussion about a book or you’d like an actual review, ask any question you like and I’ll be happy to try and comply/respond.
Additional note; I do not feed the trolls. If you don’t have something constructive to say, or if you can’t say it in a respectful way, you won’t get a response from me. Ever.

This started out well but then the force of stupid turned strong and lost me from the mid point onward.
It's the story of Marie, who is a human who knows about supernaturals since she works in the dating agency catering to them, and knowing that she's going to die soon from the same illness her mother suffered, decides to use her position to avoid that fate.
She goes on a hunt for someone to turn her, and after recent developments lead the shifters to ban all unauthorized turning of humans, she turns her sights to vampires. Going through the dating agency's database, she goes on a series of dates with all sorts of weird vampires, more and more desperate to find one to turn her.
In the meanwhile, Joshua, a were-cougar who has a reputation for being a serial dater, continues to tease and pester her at work, and soon discovers her plans. For reasons of his own he decides to help her, and the two of them become close and eventually fall for one another.
And here the stupid takes over. Marie hasn't told anyone about her illness and continues on her idiotic scheme to find a vampire to change her, even after some very disturbing experiences, and eventually ends up
Joshua ends up saving her, and going against the shifter council's orders, changes her, after which point the shifters realize that banning the changing of humans isn't a great idea after all
All's well that ends well, and the couple gets their happily ever after.
The series continues with a were-bear story next in [b:Bear Naked|20804054|Bear Naked (Midnight Liaisons, #3.5)|Jessica Sims|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1392311000l/20804054._SX50_.jpg|40148521].

Light, entertaining read. Good Story, likeable characters.
Again better than the last book.
But also a read-only-once read for me.
