The Vampire's Mail Order Bride Review

The Vampire's Mail Order Bride (Nocturne Falls Book 1) 

By Kristen Painter

The tourists think it's all a show: the vampires, the werewolves, the witches, the occasional gargoyle flying through the sky. But the supernaturals populating the town know better. 

Living in Nocturne Falls means being yourself. Fangs, fur, and all.

After seeing her maybe-mobster boss murder a guy, Delaney James assumes a new identity and pretends to be a mail order bride. She finds her groom-to-be living in a town that celebrates Halloween every day. Weird. But not as weird as what she doesn’t know. Her groom-to-be is a 400-year-old vampire.

Hugh Ellingham has only agreed to the arranged set up to make his overbearing grandmother happy. In thirty days, whatever bridezilla shows up at his door will be escorted right back out. His past means love is no longer an option. Not if the woman’s going to have a future. Except he never counted on Delaney and falling in love for real.

Too bad both of them are keeping some mighty big secrets...

MY REVIEW

When Delaney witnesses her boss murdering someone, she goes on the run. In her panic, she happens upon a chance to hide out in Nocturne Falls, South Carolina. The only problem with that though is that she is engaged to marry a man she has never met. Being desperate, she has no choice. What she doesn’t know is that her fiancé is a 300 years old vampire, and the town has a reason for celebrating Halloween every day of the year.

It was refreshing to read a vampire tale that was not gory, or even scary. It was truly a fun and amusing story with great character development. I can see this is going to be an interesting series with all the different supernatural characters.
