Then she's captured by Bones, a vampire bounty hunter, and is forced into an unholy partnership. In exchange for finding her father, Cat agrees to train with the sexy night stalker until her battle reflexes are as sharp as his fangs. She's amazed she doesn't end up as his dinner -- are there actually good vampires? Pretty soon Bones will have her convinced that being half-dead doesn't have to be all bad. But before she can enjoy her newfound status as kick-ass demon hunter, Cat and Bones are pursued by a group of killers. Now Cat will have to choose a side . . . and Bones is turning out to be as tempting as any man with a heartbeat. " Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Just Kiss the Guy Already!Ugh! I really struggled through this book. The main character hates vampires, so it is understandable that she won't trust the vampire that decides to train her, but come on. 10 pages later she is talking about how how the vampire is and how much she wants him, yet she hates him. She really wants him, then she is scared of him. There is very little plot here, and entirely too much whining. Hard to believe that a vampire is going to fall in love with someone the first time he meets her also. It's ... Read More Rating:  - Angieville: HALFWAY TO THE GRAVEI came across a mention of HALFWAY TO THE GRAVE on Rachel Vincent's blog and decided to give it a try because the notion of a main character who is a half-vampire intrigued me. How does one become half a vampire, and what wicked cool/unbelievably lame attributes come with the package? Cat Crawfield's mother had an unfortunate encounter with a vampire and five months later Cat was born. Her reclusive mother raised her to hate the darker half of herself, encouraging her to actively hunt the ... Read More Rating:  - Wonderful!I absolutely loved this book. The characters were well developed and I loved the interaction between Cat and Bones and how he trained her to be better than she already thought she was. Rating: - Move over Anita...This being the first book in a series, Halfway to Grave has a few growing pains and a bit of a cliff-hanger ending, but it's still more than worth the read. The characters are engaging, it has a great plot including a social ill that is near and dear to my heart, and a lot of room for more. So on with the show. Catherine "Cat" Crawford has been different all her life, although it wasn't until about six years ago that she learned just how different. The product of her human mother's rape by a vampire, ... Read More Rating: - Wow! A pleasant & entertaining read!! In the midst of all the paranormal romances I'm reading, I thought I'd give this one a try given the feedback. And how thankful I did! The heroine Cat is funny, feisty & perfectly naive when it comes to love. Her male counterpart, Bones is a perfect partner-in-crime & THEN some. I love that he's business first & foremost, as she is, but the passion can't be denied. Their common ground is well written & their feelings for each other jump off the page. HOT! A page turner that I could not put down! Can't wait to ... Read More |
