But after hearing her ramblings about vampires he must convince her that he’s the man for her.I really enjoyed Vampires Like it Hot.

And, Lynsay Sands does it again. I seriously cannot believe that she can write the 28th book in this series and still keep the stories fresh and exciting and this one has a serious twist to it that totally had me scratching my head.Jess would never have believed vampires existed until she saw it with her own eyes. Now, the Captain of the Pirate Ship is saying she is his Life Mate??? Whatever that is. She just knows that she has to get off of this ship and get the authorities out there to help all the people on the ship. There is only one way to get off the ship and she's brave enough to jump but does she have the stamina to make it to shore. Then, who is going to believe her that vampires exist?Raffaele Notte, like other Immortals, hopes to find his Life Mate one day but isn't actively looking for her. What a surprise when he pulls the woman from the ocean. He can't read her, he can't control her and damn, his libido is back with a vengeance. She keeps muttering about vampires and is determined to get out of Punta Cana before Vasco, the Pirate Captain can kidnap her and make her a soulless vampire like him. So, how does he tell her that she's his Life Mate too and he's an Immortal just like Vasco?And … there's the twist. Jess is a Life Mate to two Immortals. She's now tasked with deciding which one she wants to spend her life with. Well, that's after she finally understands just what they are, where they came from and what it means to be a Life Mate.I laughed out loud in more than one place in this story. Vasco's vocabulary was hysterical. Jess's reaction to him and her reaction to everything happening was just as funny. Raffaelle was sweet and caring, Santo was his quiet self and Zanipolo was just out for a good time. But, Lynsay Sands has that knack of bringing them all together and writing a story that is enjoyable and fun to read.

This review was originally posted on Addicted To RomanceVampires Like It Hot is book number twenty eight!! I still can’t believe how large this series has become and man this book is one of the best of the SERIES. I was really impressed with how well this book was written here. I don’t know exactly what it was that really made such a big impression on me, if it was listening to this book or if this book was a bit different from anything this author has done in this series previously.This story sets off with our hero, Rafaele Notte has come with his cousins to an exotic island and resort to relax and help a friend recover from a trauma of being a hunter. But then they start seeing signs of a rogue immortals around and multiple of them. Our heroine enters the scene, Jessica has come to the resort for her cousin’s wedding. Even though her parents are passed, family has become everything to her since she spent years in foster care and her adopted family are the best thing that ever happened to her. She is asked to babysit her other female cousin who is a bit unhinged and crazy at times, But what follows is that she finds herself dragged onto a pirate cruise ship with the assumption of feeding the sharks, but she knows something is fishy as the sun goes down. But then she discovers she is on the boat of vampires, and that the leaders thinks that she is his lifemate. But she manages to escape into the ocean and is rescued from shark infested waters by Rafaelle. Rafaelle and his friends look out for Jess and there are sparks that build between Rafaelle and Jess but Jess doesn’t realize that Rafaelle is also an immortal, and the truth could either break their relationship and bring them closer than ever before?So this BOOK has it all!!! Its rare to see pirates in a contemporary type setting, and even though there are immortals (vampires) in this story its still rare to see this. At first I was VERYconfused to be honest with the hints that Jessica had two possible lifemates and meeting them around the same time? As far as I can remember (and I could be wrong) but I haven’t seen this in this series and I really enjoyed seeing this author handle this scenario and seeing Jessica realize who the right man is for her. Now its pretty obvious that Rafaelle is her choice because even though there is a lot of passion with the pirate captain but Rafaelle is her perfect match. I really enjoyed seeing Jessica discover what she needs the most between the two men.It does not happen often, but sometimes a situation occurs where one person could be a life mate to two different immortals. It is always a difficult situation, and painful for the one not chosen. But a choice must be madeI was very curious to see how Sands would take this story and it actually developed really well. I adored both of these characters. Rafaelle has lived over two thousand years, has plenty of experience on his belt and close to his family. He understands close family ties and an experienced hunter. But more than that, Rafaelle, is understanding, kind and sensual and has the perfect blend of alpha and beta in him. I love how caring and protective he is of Jessica, but also lets her be herself and not being too controlling. Jessica, is such a strong lady. I really admired her character. She has risen above quite a bit. She grew up in foster care where she was abused in every way you can imagine, but then she found her own strength to overcome the past that torments her so that she is stronger than ever and I love her positive outlook on life.Overall I found The Vampire Likes It Hot to be a stunning addition to the Argeneau series, a story of adventure, funny pirates, and a romance packed with sensuality and laughs! WELL DONE!

Before I talk about the book, I just want to say that I love this series. I can't say objectively that these are literary classics in the academic sense, but I will say that it is one of the top series I read just because I've grown so attached to this world and the characters who inhabit it, and this despite the fact that I'm not primarily a romance fan. I used a post my reviews of every Argeneau book on Lynsay Sands website before that forum exploded into a smoking digital crater (technology can be a pain sometimes). Now that I'm on this site, I'll post my reviews here, along with every other book I've read since I joined up.In any case, I think this is a good one. This won't go down as one of my favorites (if it was it would be an automatic five stars) but it's a fun romp through paradise. This is not, by the way, our first visit to a tropical vacation getaway in this series and it may not be our last but I enjoyed it nonetheless.Jess and Raffaele finding each other made me happy though I'm definitely sad for Vasco. I'm pretty sure we've been introduced to some new characters we'll meet again in upcoming books so they can find their life mates too.I must admit, though I try my best to make my reviews as unbiased as I can, I am biased when it comes to this series. The Argeneau universe will always inhabit a warm place in my heart and I'll always have good things to say about it. It's like returning to a favorite vacation spot. Also, I really miss that little forum. Goodreads is fine for what it is, but it's huge. You could get lost in here.Oh well. If I really believed Lynsay would ever see this I would say, "Another good one. If you keep writing them, I'll keep buying them.

#28 and I'm still reading this series! Formularic they may be but, damn they are almost always so good!! Interesting characters, funny plots and cool hijink abound. This one has a twist I didn't care to see at first, but Sands opened it up to even more Immortals I'd love to have find their true lifemates. We are headed to the South American region soon and I cant wait to see who kicks butt and takes names there.

I spent the first 3/4s of this book repeatedly checking if I'd somehow mistakenly picked up a previous book in the series that I'd already read, because everything felt so familiar to me. I kept going "I KNOW I've read this before!" However, I've only read one other book in the Argeneau series, and as this book only released about a month before I read it I'm positive I hadn't actually read this book before and forgotten about it in the span of a month. (Even I'm not that forgetful.)That being said, despite this entire book up until the last quarter of it basically being bookish déjà vu, I really enjoyed Vampires Like It Hot. While I felt like I'd read it before, it was in a good way, like I'd read it before and loved it. I had just enough background on the Immortals and the whole world set-up from reading one other book in the series so I wasn't lost, but I really like the scientific way that Sands approaches the concept of Immortals (never *gasp* vampires). I like that Jess has her issues that she struggles with, and that Raff isn't perfect either. The sort of love-triangle aspect was written in a way that was really interesting to me, especially as I don't read a lot of paranormal romance (which I'm given to understand has a lot of lifemate, instant-life-bond type tropes). The "vampirates" are quite possibly my favorite part of this entire book, along with all the other hilarious nicknames and terms for things Jess comes up with. This is the 28th book in the Argeneau series, and while it can be read as a stand alone it does sort of assume that you have some knowledge of the universe in which the book is set. As I said earlier in my review, I've read one other book in this series and that gave me enough of a jumping ground from which to launch myself. I think if this had been the very first book I'd read in this series, I'd have felt a little lost but still been able to muddle though - I'd probably have just identified with Jess a little more!

HUMOROUSLY BRILLIANTAnother Great Argeneau episode by Lynsay Sands, where we see some tense areas, not as much as previous episodes, but we have some pretty humorous areas with the way immortal 'PirateVampire' Vasco speaks to student holidaymaker Jess whose gone to Punta Cana for her cousin's wedding & went on to the ship for a 'feeding' expedition but not in the way they thought but she see's & decides to get away in any which way. And she comes across or well Raffaele & his cousins Santo & Zanipolo comes across her & becomes her saviours from the 'Vampires' all she knows is that she wants Raffaele & He wants her.We see that Jess doesn't just have 1 potential Lifemate wanting her, she has 2 & she knows she's attracted to these 2 strangers, which 1 of whom's a vampire. So come & see what happens when she finds out more of whom the 3 cousins are & the group from the ship. We see how & if either 1of these 2 potential lifemates & if so whom Jess decides.....😍😍😍

I loved this book! I love how this author has the ability to pull me into the story with ease and hold my attention until the end. The twists and turns left me sitting on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what will happen next. The characters are creative and made me feel part of the story. Jess is a great character that at times I wondered what she was thinking and other times yes! Raffaele makes the best book boy-friend, hot, sexy! I highly recommend reading this book, what could be better then hot, steamy immortals!

This is the story of Raffaele Notte, who is taking a break at an ocean resort with Santo and Zanipolo, after he had rescued them being tortured. Now they have time off to deal with the issues before returning to their jobs as Immortal Rogue Hunters.But this resort doesn’t want them to relax, there are more vampires and they are taking bites out of the tourists. Raffaele, Santo and Zanipolo decide they are going to look into this and report it back to Lucien.Where Rafaelle rescues Jess from the sea, and screaming there are vampires.Jess was at the resort for her cousins wedding and she had to look after her cousins sister, who can be a bit of a handful, when she decides to take a trip on a pirate ship to go shark hunting, Jess meets the Captain Vasco , who it seems is a vampire and seeing Jess he cannot hear her thoughts. In Immortal terms this means that she could be his lifemate. But Jess wasn’t having it and jumped ship where she was then rescued by Rafaelle.The twist of this story is that Rafaelle could also be a lifemate, he is unable to hear her thoughts and he starts eating again (another sign of lifemates) But how can she be lifemate to two Immortals?Jess has a reaction to Vasco, but only if he would keep his mouth shut, the language that comes from his mouth is a bit foul. Whereas when she has a reaction to Rafaelle there is definitely something there that she wants to explore.Another greats story by Lindsay Sands and can’t wait to get my hands on the next book “The Trouble with Vampires” about Santos.

I received this as an arc and OMG i LOVED it! Even though this is book 28 it doesn't feel like torture and that the author is dragging it out just for the sake of money, this book is legit awesome like all the others. The witty one liners in this book are amazing and had me laughing the entire time I read it- especially the nickname that Jess makes up for "hot naked Raff". Raff saved Jess from Vasco and Cristo and repeatedly made sure everything was thought of and but Raff did everything to keep her happy except not tell the truth the entire time and then had it blow up in his face. Vasco was a great character and although his language was crude at times he really stepped in a lot in unexpected ways which was nice to see for a "vampirate". I definitely recommend this book though as I enjoyed it a lot.
