The book started a bit annoying with the set up for the love potion (my dudes, ladies can ask men out. What are you thinking?) but the result was pretty entertaining.
The mystery was a huge improvement over the previous book, in that our main character wasn't so clueless. The murderer wasn't so obvious, but I guessed who it was pretty early. So, that felt good.
The romance is not what I want. Bleh.cheap ways of getting rid of Ian in favor of the mary sue vampire dude who judges people based on how they look
This book had a few editing mistakes. The first was repeating the same opening line twice in a row. Not directly after each other, but perhaps a few paragraphs apart. The second was using the wrong word somewhere.
