Blurb: MISSING: One human bride last seen fleeing dangerous, sexy vampire.

Reward offered.

After a three-century "time out," legendary vampire Niccolo DiConti vows to fulfill an ancient prophecy and, along the way, defeat the demented queen of the damned. All he has to do is find his human mate, seduce her into agreeing to become a vampire, and bond her to him forever. Luckily, he's handsome, charming, and mind-blowing in bed. How hard could this be?

On vacation in sultry Mexico, biologist Helena Strauss makes the discovery of a lifetime when she meets Niccolo—and finds herself caught in a world of supernatural secrets and dangerous delights. Even more shocking is that he seems to know everything about her and claims her as his true immortal companion. Sure, she can't take her eyes-or mouth-off this gorgeous, perfect being. But can a hot-blooded gal like her really settle down with a cold-hearted vampire?

About Mimi Jean Pamfiloff

Before taking up a permanent residence in the San Francisco Bay Area, Mimi spent time living near NYC (became a shopaholic), in Mexico City (developed a taste for very spicy food), and Arizona (now hates jumping chollas, but pines for sherbet sunsets). Her love of pre-Hispanic culture, big cities, and romance inspires her to write when she's not busy with kids, hubby, work, and life...or getting sucked into a juicy novel.

She hopes that someday leather pants for men will make a big comeback and that her writing might make you laugh when you need it most.

GoodReads

Review: Accidentally Married to...a Vampire? was a good read and I found myself liking the same things about it that I did Accidentally in Love with...a God?. I also had some of the same issues that I had with the other book, but, to a lesser extent. One of the main reason for this may be because the characters - their backgrounds, strengths, and weaknesses - worked better for me than they did in Votan's and Emma's book.

Cimil, who I forgot to mention in my other review, stayed true to form and became a favorite part of the book in spite of her apparent lack of sanity.

Her "workaround" Niccolo's having to wait for Helena was an interesting touch.

I think the only sticky point for me was Viktor's 'dog with a bone he doesn't want to let go of' attitude.

Enjoyable read and look forward to seeing what comes next.
