I'm the Vampire, That's Why (Broken Heart Vampires, #1)

Sink your teeth into the first novel in New York Times bestselling author Michele Bardsley's Broken Heart series.

Broken Heart is the city with the highest rate of divorce and highest percentage of single parents in Oklahoma. And I, Jessica Matthews, have been a member of that club ever since my husband dumped me for his twenty-something secretary and then had the gall to die in a car accident.

Now I’m not just a single mother trying to make ends meet in this crazy world...I’m also a vampire. One minute I was taking out the garbage; the next I awoke sucking on the thigh of superhot vampire Patrick O’Halloran, who’d generously offered his femoral artery to save me.

But though my stretch marks have disappeared and my vision has improved, I can’t rest until the thing that did this to me is caught. My kids’ future is at stake—figuratively and literally. As is my sex life. Although I wouldn’t mind finding myself attached to Patrick’s juicy thigh again, I learned that once a vampire does the dirty deed, it hitches her to the object of her affection for at least one hundred years. I just don’t know if I’m ready for that kind of commitment...

Light story about a housewife who becomes a vampire.

When Jessica Matthews is attacked and nearly killed she's turned into a vampire by the sexy Patrick O'Halloran she finds herself living a different life. The fact that pretty much the whole town ends up living a vampiric life makes this interesting. When she discovers that if she has sex with a vampire they're partners for 100 years she has a lot of choices to make.

It's light vampire romance lit. It's nothing earthshaking but I did enjoy the read.
