ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 26, 2023

Alasdair MacKenzie has never once considered himself unlucky in all the centuries he’s been an immortal rogue enforcer. Not until he meets Sophie. Finding the beautiful, smart, and funny woman who is his life mate is great luck, actually. But meeting her at a wedding full of Argeneaus, not to mention his own busybody uncles determined to “help him claim his woman,” is bad luck. And the fact that Sophie is someone else’s date? Well that’s just the next level of unlucky.

From the way her gaze travels over his body like a caress to the electric zing whenever they innocently touch…he wants her for all eternity! He’ll keep his hands off Sophie until her date is over. After that all bets are off and he’ll pull out all the stops to win her. Great plan—until he gets hit by a car. And then he’s poisoned. Is his luck that bad, or is someone out to stop this immortal from claiming Sophie as his life mate?

REVIEW: Bad Luck Vampire begins with Sophie Ferguson realizing within a few minutes that her blind date with Carl was not going well. She knew there was no reason to continue and told him she was leaving. Carl would not take no for an answer and followed her outside. Sophie defended herself and was trying to make it to her car when she noticed Carl was no longer following her. Carl, in fact, was being “detained” by two huge men who came to her aid.

Tybo and Valerian take “care” of Carl for her, which she is immensely grateful for. What she doesn’t expect is for Tybo to ask for her number. Since they had saved her from more of Carl’s antics, she gave it to him. What she doesn’t know is that Tybo and Valerian are not quite human.

When she sees Tybo again, he invites her to be his date at an upcoming family wedding. She accepts the offer. Once they arrive at the wedding, she realizes she has never seen so many beautiful people in one place. What she doesn’t understand is her attraction to another guest, Alasdair MacKenzie. She chastises herself and tries to settle in and just enjoy the festivities. She also doesn’t understand why a certain guest, whom she just met, is suddenly, subtly, pushing her to sit by Alasdair. That certain guest is none other than Marguerite Argeneau. If you know, you know!

Once the wedding is over, Alasdair starts to court Sophie, only to have so many bad things happen to him. Talk about unlucky. However, it doesn’t take long for him to figure out that someone is either trying to kill him or he is indeed has the worst bad luck of any vampire.

Bad Luck Vampire is another great addition to the series. Sophie and Alasdair are a great couple. As always, there is a huge presence of secondary beloved characters, but it is his Scottish uncles who steal the show. They are hysterical in trying to help Alasdair “woo” his life mate. Sands has always written with humor, but this one made me laugh out loud. I can only hope one of the uncles gets a story soon. If you’re a fan of the series, you’ll certainly enjoy this one. If you’ve not read the series, what are you waiting for? Well done, Lynsay Sands! Very, very well done!
