Book Review: How to Seduce a Vampire (Without Really Trying) by Kerrelyn Sparks

How to Seduce a Vampire (Without Really Trying)
Love at Stake #15
Author: Kerrelyn Sparks
Reading Level: Adult
Genre: Paranormal
Released: April 29th 2014
Review Source: Purchased

Vampire Zoltan Czakvar is on the hunt for the truth about his father's death. He's been searching for a very long time—since 1241, in fact. And he is not about to give up, even when he's attacked by a woman with striking blue eyes and a hell of a right hook!

Neona is also on the hunt. She's looking for a mate, and she thinks muscled Zoltan will work just fine. After all, men are good for only one thing. Soon, though, she realizes there's more to this handsome vampire than just sexual prowess. But she's keeping a secret from Zoltan, something so big that it will rock the vampire world.

Can their newfound love survive . . . even if their passion means the destruction of her world?

This is an Adult romance novel recommended for ages 18+ due to sexual content and mature subject matter.

It’s only natural to assume that things would be getting a little rusty when book 15 comes around. I sure didn’t see any rust. In fact, How to Seduce a Vampire (Without Really Trying) may just be one of my favourite books in the series! Kerrelyn Sparks knows how to keep the series going, every instalment has different elements, diverse characters and I never feel like the books are starting to sound the same, which is common amongst the longer series. She’s keeping the current characters alive while introducing new ones and we’re seeing new species along the way. I really can’t complain because I’m enjoying every second of it.

How to Seduce a Vampire is Zoltan’s spotlight. He’s on the hunt, determined to find the truth regarding his father’s death but ends up discovering so much more than he anticipated. Instead, he finds himself entranced with a woman, a woman who also turns out to be a non-immortal Amazon woman. Here’s the thing: she’s over 2,000 years old...but is mortal. How does that work?

After reading this installment it had me thinking there’s still a lot of this world we have yet to explore. I’m looking forward to book 16, which is due for publication this December. I’d say this book can be read as a standalone but you will appreciate the book more reading the series in chronological order.
