Book Description

Publication Date: May 27, 2008

Love bites when a seventeen-year-old vampire and witch tangle. Marissa Lakeland faces her worst nightmare one dark and misty night when she chases a gorgeous hunk of a guy to prove he's a vampire. So why does the thought of tall, dark and vampiric appeal to Marissa, when there's no way a vampire can compel a witch to do his bidding? At least that's what she's read in vampire lore. But lore can be mistaken. Fledgling vampire Dominic Vorchowski knows Marissa's the only one who can save him. Only why does she have to be a witch? Fate has thrown him together with the bewitching Marissa and if he gains her trust, he'll have his life back again. Except for that whole eternal thirst for blood thing. And the fangs. Not to mention the aversion to intense sunlight. In any event, he's set his sights on one girl who's totally off the menu. The centuries-old vamp Lynetta wants Dominic to replace the lover she lost, and no teenaged witch is going to take her guy away. Dominic and Marissa must stop the vampiress from winning the battle of the night.but time is running out.

5.0 out of 5 stars A different take on high school, vampires, & witches, March 31, 2008

By

This review is from: The Vampire...In My Dreams (Kindle Edition)

Marissa, a young inept witch still in Witchcraft High School sets out to learn if vampires really exist. Marissa discovers they do when she encounters Dominic, a fledgling vampire, and is stunned when the gorgeous hunk insists she's his life mate and his only defense against Lynetta, a centuries old vamp determined to force him to replace the lover she lost two hundred years ago.

When Marissa consents to share her blood with Dominic, she accidentally consumes a small amount of his. As a result, she develops some vampire qualities and to the surprise of them both, Dominic acquires the traits of a warlock which allows him to enter the high school she attends. He won't leave Marissa's side as Lynetta sees her as a threat and is determined to destroy her.

As the two fight the evil Lynetta and her underlings, they learn to use their new skills to protect themselves and each other, and their love grows.

This is a fun, unusual story that combines the eeriness of witchcraft and vampires set amid the social system of teenagers in high school. I'd recommend this book for any young adult.

1.0 out of 5 stars Sexist vampires, over and over and over again, February 9, 2010

By 

Libro Joven - (Blogspot) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Vampire...in My Dreams (Paperback)

In a few words (not worth wasting my time any more than that): silly, stupid, ridiculous. And ABSOLUTELY SEXIST. Why the hell is the HOTTT!! vampire guy supposed to be soooooo much better at everything than the poor, stupid, clumsy (yes, OF COURSE she is clumsy) girl?? I mean, she is a witch who sucks at witchcraft, and he is not a wizard, but is great at it (this is just an example). My God. Awful book.
