"It was one last mission. Shannon, a demon hunter with the agency, is looking forward to leaving behind the small town and the vampire she's been stuck with for the past two years. Things are getting complicated fast and she wants out. A fresh start, free of her vampire partner, awaits her if she can survive their final mission and the lonely Christmas holidays. It was one last mission. Rafe, a vampire doing time with the agency, watches it approach with dread weighing heavily in his stomach. Two years of working with Shannon has been difficult, especially since he started falling for her, but he doesn't want their partnership to end. He has barely a few days to make her face her feelings and stop her from leaving, and he intends to do just that. When a slimy demon threatens the season of peace and goodwill, it's the chance Rafe has been waiting for and the moment Shannon secretly fears. Rafe's determination to prise open her heart and her own resolve to keep it closed clash as violently as they do with the demon, and threatens to end as messily. Can Rafe make Shannon see that his love for her is real and that she feels something for him too? Can Shannon face her fears and her past, and stop herself from running away from both? Will a wish on a star bring her what her heart truly desires-a vampire for Christmas?."--… (lisätietoja)

I'll admit that this particular book didn't grab me. I don't know why, it just didn't.

I'm not saying it's a bad read but it's not a memorable one (i.e. I read this 2 days ago and forgot that I had and just started reading it again. After 15 pages I realised I'd already done so) ( )

Novella/Short Story Ratings
Book ♥♥ 2 Stars
Author ♥♥♥♥ 4 stars
Total ♥♥♥ 3 stars

Sometimes, you can really like an author, the way they write, the things they write, and a book but you walk away from the entire story feeling as if it was not written for you to like. The book was okay typical lets love each other today, hate each other tomorrow, and love each other the next. I think that it started strong and ended strong but fizzled somewhere in the middle. The author however can write her arse off so four stars for her.

Nice read. This novella seems to be part of a series, as I didn't understand what the Agency was or its motives were, but it can be read as a standalone. ( )

AWESOME!!!! Five stars only because I can't give six.

Rafe and Shannon have been working closely together as demon hunters. Now Shannon is ready to move on, leave Rafe and strike out on her own. Rafe, however, is totally in love with her, and has only one last mission to make her face her true feelings.

Rafe is totally sweet and hot, protective towards Shannon, and their affection is the best part if this novella. Too often, 'chemistry' acts as a poor substitute for a plot where the characters fall in love, and to me that period of discovery and growing closeness is the best part of a romance. This one starts as Shannon is about to end their work partnership and move away, start on her own, so the two years of discovering each other is not there, but you can feel the affection and the openness that has resulted from it. Loved both Shannon and Rafe! Oh, and liked the goo monster too!!!

Special mention because as a PNR hero, Rafe is unusual. I would love more of him! ( )

Shannon is a demon hunter and Rafe is her partner. Only he isn’t just her partner. He’s a vampire and she hates vampires. But for two years she’s had to work side-by-side with him because the agency said she had to. Now, after one last mission she’ll be free to go. She’ll finally be free of her vampire partner, a reminder of everything she lost. But is she really ready to go? And will Rafe let her walk away without telling her how he feels about her?

An excellent short story about two broken people falling in love. So what if one’s a vampire and the other has been traumatized by one? I love great characters who can overcome difficulties to find their HEA and still manage to work together to do their jobs. Because that gross slimy snot demon is not going to sit around twiddling his um, thumbs(?) while they work out their feelings. ( )
