While I am a sucker for any vampire story, I am also incredibly critical of them. But I have to give BRIDE 5 stars. I devoured the book in one day, absolutely enamored with the two main characters and the tension/chemistry between them. The banter and evolution of their relationship is enjoyable, supporting characters are fleshed out, and Hazelwood brings some of her STEM roots to the creature origins.
Side note: as soon as I saw the dedication I thought, "No, she did knot...." But yes. Yes she did.
I received an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
