ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 25, 2019.

For close to three thousand years the imposing, impossibly handsome Santo Notte has fought in armies across the world and battled his own, more personal enemies. Of all the places he might expect to encounter his life mate, a quiet corner of upstate New York doesn’t seem likely. But as soon as he makes contact with history professor Petronella Stone, while hunting down a suspected rogue immortal, he knows that she will be the greatest adventure of his eternal life.

He expects her to be surprised, confused, even overwhelmed. What he doesn’t expect is that Pet has a secret history of her own. There’s no mistaking the mind-blowing, mutual pleasure they share. But as Pet struggles to protect her nephew from a danger lurking too close to home, Santo realizes there’s another threat to her safety—him. And claiming their passionate future will be impossible until he leaves his past behind, forever

REVIEW: The Trouble With Vampires begins with Petronella Stone, known as Pet, babysitting her nephew due to both parents being out of town. She finds herself a bit surprised to see that the neighbors are out of town and have rented out their home to a group of people (Marguerite Argeneau Notte and her husband, Julius, among others) vacationing. She’s also surprised when her nephew tells her that the neighbor across the street has company who doesn’t seem very nice and he’s a bit worried about the elderly neighbor. After she and her nephew have gone to bed, she discovers someone trying to break into her sister’s home and calls 911.

Santo Notte has been summoned to upstate New York in order to help track a rogue immortal. While surveilling the house across the street, he and his family (who are there to help track the rogue) see someone trying to break into the house next door and leap into action. Even though the rogue gets away, they take Pet and her nephew into their ‘rental’ to keep them safe and to make the necessary repairs to Pet’s house.

Once Santo realizes that he can’t read or control Pet, he knows she is his lifemate, but moves slowly as to not run her off for more than one reason. Not only does he not want her to run because he’s an immortal, it appears that he has been keeping a secret that he fears could put her in danger……from him.

The Trouble With Vampires is another great addition to the Argeneau series. I loved Pet. And I loved that she actually already knew about immortals. That particular backstory is one of the best yet in the series. I’ve been waiting on Santo’s story for a while now. His abduction and torture at the hands of an evil doctor, and ultimate escape, has shaped him into a bit of a brooding character. However, once he realizes that Pet is his lifemate, he tries to shake loose of the past in order to have a future with her. The chemistry between the two of them, as well as their understanding of each other’s backgrounds, will endear both of them to everyone who reads their story. The Trouble With Vampires is book number 29 in the Argeneau series, and I still love them. Every one of them. They are fun, poignant with just the right amount of steam. If you’re a paranormal romance fan, you will NEVER go wrong with one of these books. The entire Argeneau family, as well as their extended family, is one of the most endearing families in paranormal romance history, in my humble opinion. Well done, Lynsay Sands! Very, very well done!
