Filthy Rich Vampire by Geneva Lee Albin

medium-paced

2.5

The story was interesting at the start, even though I'm not a fan of the insta-love/insta-lust plot. I liked Thea at first, but then her personality just got so inconsistent. The naive virgin 22 year old going away with the rich, hot 900+ year old vampire she'd known for less than a week was a bit ridiculous. Not to mention, she left her sick mom behind, and Julian unilaterally decided to withdraw her from her course work for the rest of the school year. Julian's personality was basically that of a feral caveman, and him choosing to give her the nickname "pet" felt icky, and I hate how he ended up throwing that in her face in the last chapter. There was so much miscommunication and secret keeping that never got properly resolved. The characters just got sexual and moved on without any discussion. I know it's only book 1 in the series, but I feel like there's so much of the plot that was introduced that was still underdeveloped regarding the rules and norms of the vampire/witch world.
