Synopsis (Goodreads):
Shadowvale isn’t your typical small town America. The sun never shines, the gates decide who enters, magic abounds, and every resident bears some kind of curse.Thoughts on The Vampire's Cursed Kiss: It's been a while since I've spend some time in Shadowvale and hoo-boy is this a fun place. It has all sorts of supernatural individuals and all sorts of supernatural shenanigans going on.
Vampire Constantin Thibodeaux was cured of his sun "allergy" when he moved to Shadowvale. Now he runs the local bookstore, which is really just a sideline to filling his own library. Books, unlike people, are far more forgiving of his prickly nature. But he doesn’t care if people don’t like him. He is who he is. And he’s happy. Well, he’s content. Okay, he’s…fine.
Sprite and all around party girl Andromeda Merriweather loves her carefree life – or at least she did until her sister cursed her into a magical time out. Thankfully, she’s just been set free by a totally hot, but kind of grumpy vampire. Too bad this handsome grouch now holds the key to her freedom, something she’ll only get if he agrees to abide by the rules of her curse.
Constantin isn’t interested in the terms and conditions Andromeda gives him, until he needs her to be his temporary girlfriend to shut his brother up. Then Constantin agrees. But what happens after a surprisingly fun evening creates brand new problems for both of them. Sure, two opposites can attract, but will that attraction last? Or are they both too cursed to give love a chance?
This time around, Constantin is up. He's uptight, a little broody, and kind of withdrawn from the world. Well, as much as someone can be withdrawn who owns a popular bookstore in the center of town. Still, a broken engagement has left its mark on him and he's absolutely not interested in finding romance or a relationship or having anything to do with anyone who could potentially hurt him. Which works just fine, thank you, until he unleashes a little chaos into his life in the form of one cursed sprite.
Andromeda is...well, she's a party girl who doesn't always think of how her actions might hurt those around her. One hurt too many and her sister cursed her into a book and (after a little time had passed) Constantin is the lucky vampire who released her. Lucky for him, of course, because Andromeda shakes him out of his rut and has him daring to want things he'd closed his heart off to.
A catty (not literally) ex, complicated family dynamics (for both of them), a deep love of books, a vampire who desperately needed to step outside his comfort zone, and a lady who had to lose what was important to her before she realized how much she loved it. GOOD TIMES!
