Florence and Quinn are the heart of this story, each bringing their own emotional baggage and quirks to the table. Florence, a vampire with a history of heartbreak and a career rooted in helping others, finds herself unexpectedly drawn to Quinn, a human who’s endured his own share of romantic disappointments. Their connection is complicated by Florence’s reluctance to love again and Quinn’s struggle to let go of his idealistic view of relationships.

This book offers a lighthearted paranormal romance with a unique twist—vampires and medical intrigue—but I found the author’s writing style detracted from my enjoyment. I am not a fan of first-person narrative, and this one goes one step further because it is a dual POV narrative which didn’t deliver distinct voices, making the perspectives blend together and feel repetitive. Additionally, the characters “breaking the fourth wall” disrupted the flow and pulled me out of the narrative, making it difficult to fully immerse myself in the characters’ experiences. Overall, the premise is fun, and the romance has its sweet moments, but there are times when the story feels overly convenient and lacks lasting tension, leaving me wishing for deeper emotional stakes. This is the second book in an interconnected series, but I didn’t read the first book and didn’t feel that it affected my reading experience.
