About book Casey's Love Bite (2012)

Okay, this was a purchase based predominantly on curiosity. I wanted to read a romance between a bunny shifter and a vampire. This was a new to me author and this was the ninth book in the series, but I just took a leap of faith. And I thoroughly enjoyed the story and the author's style. I will most assuredly be reading the other books in the series.This is a story involving a light and simple plot with just a slight twist to it and low angst. It is the kind of book you pick up when you just want to be entertained- not much thinking and no angsty tugs on your emotions, but still manages to engage you and make you smile.Cass is an old vampire who is sent by the vampire council to meet with a shifter pack in Colorado regarding the disturbing news they have heard about shifters being sold to human scientists for study and experimentation. He arrives at the alpha of the pack's door and after a slight misunderstanding is welcomed by Declan the alpha and his mate. Cass explains his mission, but then he is blind sided by the little albino man who helps bring in the refreshments. Cass' experiences disorientation and immediate attraction which causes him to act rashly by grabbing up the littler man and pull him into his lap. His senses tell him that he has finally found his adorata- his mate.Casey has recently been rescued from the human lab and brought back to health under the care of Declan's pack who are now his friends. He is curious when he learns there is a vampire in the house because he has never seen one. The vampire is a large gorgeous male who surprises him when he is pulled into the vampire's lap and nuzzled. His surprise turns to discomfort when he feels the scrape of fang on his neck. Casey is afraid of needles and any other sharp objects meant to puncture skin with good reason. But once his terror recedes, he too, realizes that Caspian is his mate.The rest of the story is the two mens' gradual process from first attraction, learning each other's differences, getting past Casey's past and acknowledging they might have a very bright future together. Naturally, there are some bumps along the way. Casey's kidnappers are still at large and still want him. And there is the dreaded 'meet the in-laws' type visit where Casey returns to the home and family that cast him out with Caspian in tow to warn his former pack about the rogue shifters who are selling shifters to humans.As I pointed out before, the plot was a light and easy read that also included a bit of excitement along the way. I enjoyed the main characters and the secondary characters both from the Stoney Ridge Pack and those that were Caspian's vamp friends. This was my first book in the series and I had no trouble with the world building of Charlie Richard's supernatural world or reading out of sequence. Though other couples were in this story, their stories were not mentioned much so it didn't provide spoilers.Not a heavy-hitter, just a fun romping m/m romance in the paranormal world. In this story we meet some new paranormals - vamps. Caspian works for the vampire council and he has been sent to Declan to get as much information as possible about the scientist who have been kidnapping shifters since they are worried that vampires could be next. What he is not prepared for is meeting Casey and finding his mate. Casey of course is both fascinated and terrified after his ordeal with the scientists. There is a visit to Casey's home that solves at least part of the mystery as to how and why Casey was kidnapped and sold to the scientists in the first place. Jared and Carson are along for the ride on this one since they have taken Casey in and Jared is very protective of Casey. We don't find out all that much about the vamps in this one, but maybe we'll learn more later.

Fun to read about Casey's story, but I found the story a bit bland compared to previous books.
