Customer Reviews

Great read for Vampire lovers

I have read alot of vampire novels and this was great. it was funny, i found myself laughing outloud at some parts. i was also happy with the romance between the two main characters. they have great chemistry it is definitly worth picking it up.

Sank My Teeth Right Into It!

I picked up this book, read the first two pages, and didn't put it down until I was done. Necking is a clever, witty, and romantic page-tuner. I can wait for the next book from Salvatore. Gia is a publicist with some very strange, albeit attractive, clients. Although she has flirted with her author's agent, Johnny, for a long time, the attraction has recently come to head. It can be a bit complicated to get involved with a vampire! For Gia, it's time to sink or swim. Through Gia's eyes, we get to enjoy the fireworks as their relationship stops and starts. Throw in a few details of the underworld and you have book worth the trip. Salvatore's writing is funny and to the point - no long-winded rhetoric here. Give yourself a treat and devour this book!

amusing urban paranormal satire

Book publicist Gia Felice struggles with keeping in line her horde of supernatural fiction authors. The problem she deals with is that she must keep top secret from the buying human public that her stable consists of writers who not only write novels about the paranormal, they do it from first hand experience. Her clients are mostly vampires or werewolves; though she has an occasional ET to take care of. Gia vows to remain mortal although some of her stable have offered to change her. She has no problem rejecting their advances except for Johnny the vampire whose intense desire makes her reconsider her position of remaining mortal. Meanwhile as he turns up the heat, another vampiric writer Bella demands she find the vampire who turned her and she believes killed her husband. Taking an amusing bite out of the urban paranormal trend of vampires, werewolves and other supernatural species, Chris Salvatore provides an entertaining satire that lampoons the underworld occupation of New York. The story line is fast-paced, filled with action and stars a full blooded heroine and an anemic hero who ironically wants to serve her (thank you Twilight Zone). Fans will enjoy this lighthearted satirizing of the latest publishing rage as Ms. Salvatore slices and dices the urban vampiric society affirming that even the undead want to make it in Manhattan by taking a bite of the Big Apple.

Hilarious

Chris Salvatore's maiden voyage is hilariously funny, filled with witty double entendres,and a joy to read. I don't know how she comes up with this stuff but I can't wait for her to take another bite out of fiction.
