All Jessica knows about her life before she was adopted by the Packwood's is her name; Antanasia Dragomir. But apparently her dead biological parent's world is going to interfere with her senior year.
Because they were royal in the vampire world....
But vampires are not real, so she has nothing to worry about.
Now Lucuis Vladescu, a vampire prince, has moved into her garage and throw’s the weight of the vampire word on top of Jessica's shoulders. He says if they don't get married, there is going to be a war between the two royal families- the Vladescu and the Dragomir's.
But Jessica does not want to get married because she likes another guy- a normal, human guy. And anyway, vampires are not real so she has nothing to worry about.
Right?

It seemed like this whole plot was taken out of other books. The family dispute was like Romeo and Juliet (Shakespear) , Faith (Jessica's horse racing rival) and Lucius' relationship was like Wuthering Heights (Bronte) and the whole vampire part (The royalty and what her vampire myth) was just like vampire academy (Richelle Mead).
The only real thing the author created was the characters and she did a good job. Jessica is the girl next door with some attitude and Lucius is the over- protective big brother. She developed the characters really well, but they were just too...regular, I guess; everyone has someone like both of those characters in their lives. But even so, it felt like you could relate to each of the characters at almost every given time.
I think the part in the novel I loved was the corny romantic parts. But even though those parts were sweet, it still felt like an older brother would say the same kind of things Lucuis said.
However, even though the author did not use literacy terms well, the book was still pretty good. She used all 3 of the books well
3.5 out of 5 stars
