Dark Dates Cassandra Bick Chronicles Book 1 eBook Tracey Sinclair Reviews

Vampire dating agency? I'd like to say that is a new one on me but it's not. I'm following another series that has a paranormal dating service (the title will remain anonymous) which is why I wanted to read Dark Dates. I really am enjoying the other series and I wanted to see how they compare to each other. Would there be similarities? Would it be cheesy? And my conclusion is...

I love Cassandra Bick! Oh my gosh, what a flipping riot. I laughed or snickered my whole way through. . Here's a breakdown of Dark Dates. Cassandra runs a dating agency for vampires. Her assistance, Medea, is a Wiccan and is very hot! Cass herself is a Sensitive meaning she can sense Others (not human). Business for her is doing well until she gets a visit. The PTB in town have taken notice of her services and they want her to stop...or else. There's a supernatural war that's coming to town and just when Cassandra thinks it can't get any worse, her homicidal and vampire hating ex-lover shows up. Could things get any worse?

I knew from the very beginning, from the first words of the first chapter, I was going to love Dark Dates. Anytime Buffy is referenced, you know the author has a sense of humor. By the end of that first chapter, I knew I was going to want the rest of the series. The characters are engaging, flawed and yet completely lovable. The story line is fast paced and engaging. The humor is tongue in cheek and peppered with pop culture references, which makes it twice as funny when you realize not everybody was quite up-to-date. That will make more sense after reading the book. There's action, intrigue, and lots of biscuits to devour all wrapped up it this wonderful Brit humor.

What really makes this story shine is its characters. Cassandra is witty,sarcastic and doesn't hold back. Of course, since the story is told in her first person POV it's easily to assume she is the star player. Now while she probably was, the others certainly were nothing to sneeze at. Medea is (annoyingly) unflappable and very much just not a random sidekick. Laclos (Vampire) is charming, witty, oh who am I kidding. He's a flirt and so full of himself, but he can't help but fall in love with him and his ego. Cain is her ex (sort of) one again/off again boyfriend? Not exactly sure at the beginning, but they do bump uglies, and he is easily my favorite character. Cass is not quite sure what he is, but that is a Otherness puzzle for her to figure out. I have got to give props to the author when it comes to the sex scenes. She kept them sexy without going into details, which made them all the more hot while my mind was allowed to fill in the blanks. . There's a lot of banter going on between all these characters, that is when you could get Cain to talk and you can get a word in around Laclos' naked ego. And what would a story be without bad guys. Yes, there are a few and it wasn't until they were exposed did I figure it out.

Having never read Tracey Sinclair before, I had mixed feelings when I read the blurb but that changed immediately after reading the first sentence in Chapter 1. I have found a new addiction in Cassandra Bick Chronicles! No sooner did I finish reading Dark Dates, I immediately jumped into the next book. I anticipate having a fairly hefty book hanger once I finish the whole series. I am screaming from the rooftops this is a series that must be read. Read. Dark Dates. Now.

I received this book from the JeepDiva for the express purposes of an honest review. The opinions and rating of this review are solely mine.
Stars - 5, Flames - 2.5
I recommend these stories highly. Fast moving, great plot and keeps you guessing! You don't have to be a paranormal geek to enjoy them.
This was a good read, Cass and the gang has their hand full with a murder.
And someone has her client lists.

This book started out slow, but once it got going it was a good read.
I really enjoyed this book. It was my thanksgiving break as a matter of fact. Spunky and thrilling. Cant wait to read the next one
Having read Tracey Sinclair's other books, frankly I didn't know what to expect with this first of the Cassandra Bick Chronicles. Within minutes I found myself engrossed in the book, especially the parts of London I recognized from my time there and the characters themselves.

The story romps along quite nicely and at a fast pace so you're never faced with long, pastoral scenes that don't have much to do with the action of the story. Cassandra herself has a wonderfully British sense of "humour" (i.e. dry and with biting sarcasm) that I love, and as one of the other reviewers mentioned it can be a little misplaced--that said, who knows what you would say faced with any of those situations?

I also love that the book pokes fun at its own genre, which, if omitted, would have made the novel terrible. In this day and age with Twilight and True Blood overload, it would have been a huge elephant in the room had there been no mention of other vampires/characters in our literary or cinematic history!

I'm also hoping that Cain reappears in the next novel, and that the next one comes out soon!
I very much enjoyed this novel by Tracey Sinclair. I started out by reading "A Vampire Walks Into A Bar" (the sequel short short to "Dark Dates") and enjoyed meeting Cain, so much so that I picked up a copy of "Dark Dates" as well.

Tracey Sinclair's talent for snarky wit comes through wonderfully in her lead character, Cassandra Bick. The dry British wit and humor shines, and I really enjoyed her unusual characters. Yes, there are vampires, but there are others as well, and the others (Cain, especially, and his wife) rock. I really hope to see much more of Cain in future novels. Of all the characters, he has the most potential to be highly memorable.
I loved this story because I could not put it down. I can't wait to start vol.2.
