Tall, Dark & Hungry
Product Description
It bites: New York hotels cost an arm and a leg, and Terri has flown from England to help plan her cousin’s wedding. The new in-laws offered lodging. But they’re a weird bunch — and it isn’t just that they’re Canadian! There is the sometimes-chipper-sometimes-silent Lucern, and the wacky stage-actor Vincent: she can’t imagine Broadway casting a hungrier singing-and-dancing Dracula. And then there is Bastien. Just looking into his eyes, Terri has to admit she’s falling for someone even taller, darker, and hungrier. She’s feeling a mite peckish herself. And if she stays with him, those bloodsucking hotel owners won’t get her!… More >>
After reading the 2 prior books in the series, this was terribly disappointing. Unfortunately, you feel you have to read this one if you’ve read the others, but it doesn’t measure up.
Rating: 1 / 5
I wasted an entire evening reading this book, time I’ll never get back. There’s no chemistry between Bastien and and Terri and way too much internal monologue. Not the quality I’ve come to expect from Ms. Sands.
Rating: 1 / 5
this book was one of a series of vampire books by lynsay sands and I must say that it was fantastic.
Rating: 5 / 5
Sorry got half way through and couldn’t read anymore so I skipped to the end. The main characters were extremely boring. The only character with any depth and humor was Vincent!

I’m a reader who thoroughly enjoyed Love Bites and Single White Vampire. This latest installment (Tall, Dark, and Hungry) was just plain dull. Terri, the heroine, was “nice” but way too uninteresting to ever intrigue the romantic interest of a hot male like Bastien, much less inspire him to make her his one and only lifemate. The author seems to tell us how the main characters feel about each other rather than show us how this so-called romance and passion build. From our glimpses of Bastien in the earlier books, we would expect him to have many more dimensions than the boring, flat character we ended up seeing in his featured installment (T,D,and H) Also, many of the fun vampire antics and revelations we loved in the earlier novels were noticably absent here. Maybe the author thought readers would be bored by a repeat of these issues from the other books, but it just makes Terri look plain stupid not to comment on Margerite (sp?) looking like she could be Bastien’s sister rather than his mother. The clannish sense of the Argeneau (Sp?) family is also sadly missing here. The one attempt at comedy (a minor character who has a run of bad luck accidents) didn’t even earn a chuckle IMO. Tall, Dark and Hungry was disappointing and if you must read it, borrow it free from the library.
