Product Information

Staked, cursed, and still single……it’s enough to make a girl start biting.

Newly vampd Sarah Dearly wants her normal life back but fate is fighting against her. She tries to get a nice regular job and gets staked at the interview, only to be rescued by a masked vampire calling himself the Red Devil. Then a wallflower-turned-witch curses her, making her a bloodthirsty, sun-allergic nightwalker - the worst type of vampire there is and the source of all the myths. And if that wasn't bad enough, she can't get married because her 600-year-old boyfriend, Thierry, is already in a centuries-long marriage of convenience he can't escape.As Sarh's nightwalker tendencies make her more dangerous, even to those she loves, she'll have to counterract the curse, unmask the intriguing Red Devil and - oh yeah - get a commitment from her man. But if that's what it takes to secure her happiness, Sarah is ready...even if it means embracing her inner vamp to do it.

Reviews

“4 Stars! Über-talented Rowen is back and once again combining the weird and the wacky as only she can. There’s plenty of humor and a touch of danger; truly a biting good time!” - Romantic Times BOOKreviews

“(Sarah’s) voice is by turns comic and sarcastic…truly funny…be warned if reading public that outbreaks of spontaneous laughter are likely. Stakes & Stilettos is the strongest book of the series so far and is recommended reading for romance fans. Hugely good fun!” - LoveVampires.com

“…a rollercoaster ride of excitement for the reader. You will be swept up in her emotional tilt-a-whirl from page one, and be begging for the next ride to begin.” - Coffee Time Romance and More

“Michelle Rowen’s books never fail to thrill…Stakes and Stilettos is delightfully charming and keeps the wonderful mixture of tongue-in-cheek (is that tongue-in-fang?) humor and well-fleshed-out plot that made her earlier books so entertaining. The story keeps you guessing, always twisting in unexpected ways.” - Bitten by Books

“Stakes & Stilettos has the perfect combination of paranormal, romance, mystery, humor, suspense, and chick lit all wrapped up into one superb novel that will knock your socks off!” – Enchanted by Books

Sarah and Theirry are back, and it’s another fun romp through the Immortality Bites world, with a hint of death, destruction and mayhem, or at least a few curses gone amiss and the good-guy being the bad-guy being the good-guy!  We’ve even got a bit of a cliff hanger ending in this, the second to last book in the series.

I enjoy Michelle Rowen’s books, they’re always nice and easy to read. The subject matter is pretty light, and she has a pleasant flow through her books. If you’re looking for the perfect book to read while soaking in a nice bubble bath with a glass of wine and of the books in the Immortality Bites series is just perfect, with Stakes & Stilettos being a great example. 

For all that there is a bit of high drama, there really is nothing strenuous about this book.  Of course, Sarah is a bit of a whiner, and although pleasant, I find her annoying enough to not worry toooo much when the fangs start a-flying.   If you’re a fan of MaryJanice Davidson, you should already been hooked on anything in this series (and vice-versa).

What else can I say? It’s fun. You’ll enjoy it. It’s book four in a series, so if you’ve made it this far, you’re going to enjoy this one too!  I will say “argh” to the ending though.  Thankfully this was released not long before book 5 (Tall, Dark and Fangsome) came out, so I’ve got it sitting on my book case waiting for me.  This book really is a wonderful set up for a nice dramatic ending to the series.
