I fell in love with the slayer sent to destroy me.

Morgan Taylor-Jackson can't wait for high school to end. In six months she leaves for UCLA and says goodbye to La Jolla, California and her parents' messy divorce. But when Morgan is bitten by a four-year-old boy, she becomes infected with a mysterious condition. Fever, insomnia, and a new bustline are only the beginning; Morgan morphs from nerd to bombshell.

As far as Van Xander is concerned, all vampires are evil, even the ones who reject human sacrifice and call themselves Puritans. When Helsing Incorporated sends Van to La Jolla to investigate the local coven, Morgan is his prime target. Pretending to be interested in her, Van asks Morgan out and puts her through a series of tests to determine her killer nature.

Morgan is thrilled to be dating a hot guy like Van and falls for him hard. As Van strings Morgan along, he grows increasingly guilty. Morgan is kind, compassionate, and a gooey romantic. Just as Van's mind begins to change, evil forces threaten everything. When prom night arrives, there are only two ways out of the ballroom: death or immortality.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer Remixed

Bite Me by Louise Cypress is an excellent book. It reminded me so much of Buffy the Vampire Slayer mixed up. I am very impressed with this book a lot. Ms. Cypress is able to do a lot from the two different point of views she used in the book. And within those two different points of view, we got to know all the characters they were around, who the point of view characters are, and with how well they are dealing with this situation.

Morgan

The first main character is Morgan and she’s the first point of view we read from in the book. For me, I was able to relate to the character so much, especially about what life was like in high school. Except for the turning into a vampire, having a crazy mom and an actual good father. Morgan is a really great kid who doesn’t even like scary things which is kind of funny, you know because of what she is now. What I like about Morgan is that she isn’t afraid to speak her mind. She is also a bit naïve about certain things but that can’t be blamed. What I don’t like about her is that she makes some rash decisions and that she didn’t believe that she is a vampire at first. In my mind from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Morgan is Angel (you know the vampire with the soul, Buffy’s first boyfriend).

Van

The second main character is Van and he’s the other point of view we read from in the book. For me, the only thing I was able to relate to from the character is the moving around. We didn’t move around every six months but we moved. Van is a pretty nice guy when he isn’t in his slayer mode and I like that about him. Van can also be a douche about some things and that is one of the things that I dislike about him and the other is that he could have handled telling Morgan a bit better about vampires than the way he did. The things that I like about him are he is a slayer but he is also good to his sister. Van can also be a little overprotective of his sister, which is cute. He is a good guy around Morgan. In my mind from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Van is Buffy.

Big Evil

Now this one I don’t want to actually spoil it. It’s a big part of the main overall plot of the story and I don’t want to ruin it. That’s one thing that I hate about some books is spoiling the best part for some people. Anyways this big evil doesn’t exactly show up for a while in the book and it’s a crucial plot point for me to not spill. I know for a fact that you might not see the big evil coming until its already too late. That’s all I can really tell you. In my mind from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer the Big Evil is Drusilla.

Watch for the prom and let me know if it reminds you of anything. I would so tell you more but no spoilers today.

Five Stars

Bite Me by Louise Cypress is an excellent book and I can’t wait to read the next one. I am giving this book five stars as I couldn’t sleep at all last night, I had to finish this book. I am recommending this book to all my readers out there that are young adult fans that also like paranormal romance and of course are into Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Hunt Me is next book in the Puritan Coven Series and it will be released Monday, May 21st, 2018.  PreOrder on Amazon

Anyways until next time enjoy this review brought to you by
