That is, until she comes face to face with the one vampire who wants more than just her blood.

Vamps In The City was one of those stories that had a lot of potential but seemed to fall just a little short of reaching it. It was certainly interesting enough to keep me reading and I made it through to the end to find out what happened, but it could have been a great story if the author had done things like expanded the conflicts a little more. It felt like there was one drama after another, but each was solved so quickly that it gave me the feeling of a deflated balloon.
Ms. Smith does offer some interesting and unique twists to her vampires with their powers and abilities, and I wish she’d have drawn on those a little more. The attraction between Grant and Paige is exciting and the intimacy between them certainly heats things up. I believe this author has the potential for some great writing with a little tweaking and practice at plot development. Being a vampire lover, I would read something by Ms. Smith again, as her vampire creativity certainly caught my attention. It’s always nice to see something fresh and new.
