Product Description:
First Betsy Taylor loses her job, then she's killed in a car accident. But what really bites is that she can't seem to stay dead. And now her new friends have the ridiculous idea that Betsy is the prophesied vampire queen, and they want her help in overthrowing the most obnoxious power-hungry vampire in five centuries.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Funny Start to the Series
Poor Betsy! First she is attacked in an alley by some nasty people (if you could call them that) that aren't that familiar with soap and water. Then she gets hit by a truck, thrown into a tree and dies. Then she wakes up only to realize that her horrible stepmother stole all her designer shoes, and oh yeah - she's now the undead.
This is a laugh out loud start to a series that I'm anxious to continue reading. It's like really good chick lit mixed with vampires! A fun read.
Rating: - So Ridiculous, It's Actually Good!
I decided to try this book one day when reading through some reviews of it online one day. I figured it might be good for a few chuckles, but I wasn't expecting it to be high on my list of favorites.

Rating:  - New Undead fan!
This is definitely an interesting read. I wasn't sure if I would like it but I will be buying the other books.
Rating: - an unexpected surprise
This is not normally my type of book not big on romance books,but like vampires and boy was I surprised! Betsy is an amazing charater I laughed and rooted her on! I cannot wait to read book 2! I will not spoil this for anyone who has not read this wonderful book but even if this is typically not your genre of book try it this is a very exciteing book !!
Rating:  - Fun, but almost *too* cute
This book is a mix of paranormal and chick lit, so if you don't like either genre you need to avoid it like a vampire avoids garlic. Oops, sorry about the slip into lame similes. I thought this was pretty good. It was cute, almost precious at points, but I liked Betsy's no-nonsense reaction to waking up and discovering that she's now undead. My one complaint is that I found the language to be rather crude at at times. I'm no prude, but the sudden switch to almost vulgarity during the sex/feeding ... Read More
