Rachel Davis will do anything to get her sister out of a bad relationship with her fiancé. Even if it involves a few fibs, a little breaking-and-entering, and blackmailing the fiancé’s potential boss, Charles, for his help. So what if the handsome Charles happens to be a vampire?

Charles Wright has found the perfect way to trap the man threatening his brother’s wife: cozy up to him, get invited along on the skiing trip, and then search for incriminating evidence. How much better that audacious but gorgeous Rachel is just as eager to nail the bastard. As far as he’s concerned, there’s nothing wrong with a little blackmail between two consenting adults. Especially when it’s time for Rachel to pay up.

Don’t Blackmail the Vampire is sexy good fun. I adored Tiffany Allee’s first Sons of Kane book, Don’t Bite the Bridesmaid, and I’m thrilled that the second story in the series lives up to the promise of the first.

Rachel is a woman on a mission. Her sister is engaged to the worst sort of man and refuses to see it. Trying to blackmail a vampire into helping her probably isn’t the wisest idea, but Rachel’s love for her sister makes her take risks, which I could appreciate. It’s impossible not to like Rachel, for she’s caring, loyal, and has a vulnerable side that makes her wary of trusting her heart to anyone. Luckily, Charles isn’t just any man. He’s a sexy-as-sin vampire with an easy charm and a deep-seated need to protect his family. He’s amused by Rachel’s blackmail attempt, but goes along with it in order to help her out while protecting his “sister,” Alice. As a couple, Rachel and Charles have the kind of sizzling chemistry that makes Don’t Blackmail the Vampire an engaging read.

As I previously mentioned, Don’t Blackmail the Vampire is the second Sons of Kane book. While it can be read as a standalone, this story is a true sequel to Don’t Bite the Bridesmaid. Rachel’s no-good-not-quite-brother-in-law is Alice’s ex and her sister is the woman Brent cheated on Alice with. Brent is the reason Charles meets Rachel, as someone seems to be threatening Alice and Brent is the chief suspect Charles is looking into. The good news for fans of Don’t Bite the Bridesmaid is that Noah and Alice appear and we get a very satisfying look into their lives now that they’ve gotten their happily ever after.

Don’t Blackmail the Vampire is funny, charming, and wholly entertaining. I adored Charles and Rachel and I can’t wait to read more Sons of Kane stories!

Review: Don't Bite the Bridesmaid by Tiffany Allee

Don’t Bite the Bridesmaid by Tiffany Allee
Series: Sons of Kane, Book 1

Alice Shepard needs a date to her sister’s wedding. And since her ex-fiancé happens to be the best man in the wedding, not just any date will do. Alice needs a man who will make her ex rue the day he decided to cheat on her. Luckily for her, she knows just the man: her sexy as hell next-door neighbor.

The last thing Noah Thorpe wants is to be stuck on a cruise ship for a week with his gorgeous neighbor. A vampire like himself must always maintain control and keep from feeding on humans, and to him Alice is delicious as hell. But Noah has a bigger problem than lust, blood or otherwise. He needs to get out of a vampire bonding that will tie him to some unknown female vampire for eternity. Leaving town for a bit in the hopes that his brothers will be able to get him out of the unwanted wedding seems like a good solution. If only he could keep his fangs — and his hands — off of Alice for the week…

Just like the appletinis Alice favors, Don’t Bite the Bridesmaid is sweet with an unexpected kick.

I absolutely loved Alice. She’s incredibly sunny and sweet, but she’s no pushover. Alice knows how to stand up for herself and she’s not easily shaken, even when it comes to falling in love with a supernatural being. Noah, in turn, is charming and suave. His predatory nature makes him a bit dark, but he’s not broody. The longer he’s around Alice the more lively Noah gets, and the change in him was entertaining to watch as it happened. The romance between Alice and Noah was simply lovely. There’s passion aplenty in Don’t Bite the Bridesmaid, along with humor and a deeply satisfying love story.

Don’t Bite the Bridesmaid is the first book in Tiffany Allee’s Sons of Kane series and I cannot wait to get my hands on the next two books. Noah’s “brothers” played small supporting roles in the story and I’m intrigued by them, as well as Noah’s creator, the enigmatic Kane.

If you like paranormal romances that will make you smile and laugh as you fall in love with the hero and heroine, then you don’t want to miss Don’t Bite the Bridesmaid!
