New York Times bestselling author Lynsay Sands brings the heat in this new Argeneau novel, as one woman is rescued by an irresistible immortal …

“Vampires...”

When Raffaele Notte pulls a barely dressed, disoriented woman from the ocean, the last thing he expects is for her to utter that word. The immortal has come to the island resort to help his cousin, but now, it seems, there are rogue vampires dining on unsuspecting tourists. And he soon realizes that not only is Jess a target, she’s also the life mate he’s been waiting for…

Vampires are real. Jess would’ve never believed it until she saw them with her own eyes. She knows she has to get off the island, and her gallant rescuer has offered to help. There’s something about Raffaele that’s unlike any man she has ever met, and his touch sends pleasure through her that is beyond all imagining. But when Jess discovers who he really is, will she risk life as she knows it for a chance of forever by his side?

Editorial Reviews

Review

“Sands delivers a rip-roaring adventure with plenty of steamy interludes in a story that should make fans of even the most virulent anti-vampire readers. It’s hard to resist her witty dialogue, off-the-wall scenarios, sexy moments, and tongue-in-cheek sense of humor, all of which combine for a deliciously fun romp in this absolutely bonkers read...” — Entertainment Weekly

“Sands’ newest Argeneau title features her typical combination of pathos and humor while introducing another set of characters readers will likely meet again: the vampirates. A sexy, relatively lighthearted installment of the Argeneau saga.” — Kirkus Reviews

“The Argeneau vampire romance series is a long running series. What I love is that it remains as fresh and amazing as ever. I can’t wait for the next Argeneau book by Lynsay Sands.” — Night Owl Reviews

“Lynsay Sands’ exceptional descriptive voice shines in VAMPIRES LIKE IT HOT, as I felt smothered in humidity and heat, but the author also paints a loving picture of the place.” — Fresh Fiction

It's worth the read.
Let me say I have bought and read every book in the Argeneau series and LOVED them all. "Vampires Like It Hot" was good but not great. I liked the characters but didn't develop a kinship with any of them. Raffaele and Vasco should have been explored in more depth to make them more vibrant characters. Linda

5.0 out of 5 stars Such a GREAT book and Series!

Like I always say after reading the next book in this fantastic Argeneau Vampire Series, I LOVED Vampires Like It Hot! I love the Argeneau and Notte family and have always had a soft spot for their Aunt Marguerite (sp?) and her ability to find life mates for her family, even though I don't think she had anything to do with Raffelle finding Jess or the fact that Jess was a possible life mate for another immortal in Vasco. Vasco terminology in speaking to women was quite rude at times, but he also made me laugh a few times as well. I LOVE what Raffelle and Jess have with one another and even though these are fictional characters, I which I could meet someone like Raffelle and I wouldn't care at all that he's a vampire 😉 This was great, fun and exciting storyline that I really enjoyed. This is definitely a 5 🌟 read, I look forward to the next book in the Argeneau Vampire Series and highly recommend this book and Series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Vampires, intrigue, humor, romance!

Loved this book! Raffaele, an immortal from the Notte family of Italy, travels to a South American resort with his cousins, Zani & Santos, for a vacation. Of course, he quite by accident, swims out to rescue a person floating out in the water offshore late at night who turns out to be his lifemate. You'd think it should be simple after that & everything would fall into place for them but it's not to be, there are rogue pirate immortals involved & things aren't always what they seem. I love that Lynsay has created this series that's now on book 28 & each one is just different. No chance to get bored with this series unless you don't like a happy everafter because you never know where she will go next. At the start of the series, most of the books were closely related Argeneau family members but she then branched out to include extended family members & their extended families, significant friends & associates. The stories are set all over the world & are alway interesting, usually have some sort of intrigue, delicious lifemate sex & are always a little funny. I was hooked on her writing in the early 2000's & look forward to each new release! I have most of her other books as well but this series is one of my all-time top 5! At present, I've 4 kids in college so I do most of my reading through KU but this series I always pre-order! If you enjoy vampire/immortal stories you should give this a try!

Absolutely loved the storyline, very well written with a twist that was most unexpected. There was hilarious humor, adventure, pirates, misunderstanding, controversy and just plain excitement. Leyland sands immortal series is great and keeps getting better and better with each book. I definitely recommend this series.

Revisiting a unexplored tangent of the vast Argeneau family is a great thing in this newest book. It still has wonderful characterization, splendid humor, and wicked inventiveness for sure. It just doesn't kowtow to any of the ongoing subplots or bend to the overall mythology save for the basics about being an Immortal. Ms Sands has yet to write a bad book. Heck, she's never even produced a book that was simply average. This is another triumph for her and for any reader that opens its pages!

I love Lynsay Sands stories of the Argeneau Series with tales of immortals. This story continues with the Notte family finding their life mates as Raffaele Notte finds his. He is in Punta Cana on vacation with his two cousins Zani and Santos at the request of his family to help Santos with issues he has. While there he meets his life mate Jess in very unusual circumstances. This story also a really unusual twist, can be incredibly hilarious at times, naturally very hot as well, includes pirates and a pirate ship and a lot of intrigue. Great story and a really fun twist to it!

I really loved this book. The story was fun and I loved the new characters in the series. The heroine was strong, independent and a little flawed. I loved the hero. The book kept my attention the entire time. I didn't want to put it down. I am looking forward to story line for the new characters introduced this book.

Vampires Like it Hot (Argeneau Vampires 28)
Author: Lynsay Sands
Publisher: Gollancz
Page count: 273 pages
Release date: 20th Sept 18
Reviewer: Theresa Derwin

Student and psychologist Jess Stewart, is away at Punta Cana for her cousin’s wedding. Unfortunately she’s been lumped with the job of babysitting spoilt and whiney maid of honour Allison, another cousin.
After a visit to the Seaquarium, Allison runs into a Captain Jack Sparrow lookalike, who talks her and then Jess to join them on their boat for ‘feeding the sharks’ along with other tourists. When they get there, they find out who the sharks are, as a boat filled with vampire-pirates (vampirates) bites the tourists, mindwipes them and sends them on their way.
For Jess however, the boat trip is a nightmare, as cheesy vampire Vasco realises he can’t read or control her, concluding she’s he’s life mate. Pardon the fishy puns, he’s not exactly a fine catch!
As he traps her in his cabin and plans to snack on her cousin whilst he ravishes her, he expresses his romantic inclinations with compliments like, “Damn, I do like them jugs, lovey.” To add insult to injury, he has greasy hair and is kind of pungent. Though she does admire his choice in books.
Jess manages to escape and jump into the sea for a three hour swim back to shore.
Lucky for her, she is spotted by
immortal cousins Raffaele, Santo and Zanipolo. Santo - fans of this series may remember - was held hostage a few books ago, and tortured by Dressler. The cousins have took him on holiday as past trauma, brought back by recent months, have hit him hard and the only choice may be to wipe his mind if he doesn’t deal with this.
Back on safe land, for now, Jess is looked after by the Italian immortals. Thankfully, her attraction toward Rafaelle is ignited.
Though Vasco, the pirate is hard to resist, as long as he doesn’t open his mouth, Jess whilst attracted to Vasco, likes
Raffaele.
“Vasco was a walking nightmare, a bloodthirsty vampire eager to turn her into soulless demon spawn, while Raffaele was a knight in shining armor.”
Yes, of course. Jess has no clue Raffaele is a ‘vampire’, too.
This novel has everything I enjoy about the Argeneau series; sexy characters, erotica at just the right level for me, romance, tonnes of humour and intrigue.
In particular, I was impressed that this dealt with the theme of consensual sex, historical abuse and control in partnerships, themes she has dealt with previously in this series. A lot of the advice delivered by Jess, as she talks about her own earlier experiences, is actually very useful, sound and delicately put.
Plus, Rafe and Jess are both in love with my favourite show.
“I want to watch Supernatural with him, and action movies.”
Yep, sounds good to me!
I really hope we get to see what happens next with Vasco and Ildaria though, as well as Santo.
I can’t wait for the next novel, out on 29th April.
