Ok so I have written much about this book and i haven't been as strict as I have with past books chapter wise, but I have to say its a good thing, it still takes a lot of getting used to with the Scottish accent, because there's a mix of American English and then really strong Scottish you do wonder what planet your on when reading it, you really have to read the Scottish bit with an accent just to understand it.
The story is really good, its bad vamps meets good vamps, with a human love interest for Scot vamp Ian who has taken the stay awake drug to age him from 15 to 27. Toni is the human guard who hasw been brought in to protect the vamps during the day, part of her contract is not to fall for a vampire but she does, she falls for Ian. the pair fight there feelings for each other, until a church service where Toni gets upset, by something the vicar says, Ian goes out to see if she is ok, the pair end up kissing and get caught by Connor. Toni's job looks in the balance but Ian talks Connor out of it. Toni then talks Ian into helping her save her best friend from the mental hospital her evil uncle has put her in so that he can get his dirty hands on her trust fund. Ian does save Sabrina, and Teddy who is another inmate. It take Sabrina a while to get her round Ian being a vampire, but being attacked by one it wouldtake a little bit of getting used to to know there is a section of vampire's who are good. Not on does she have to cope with the fact that vampires exist but she also has deal with the fact that werewolfs exist as well and her other best firend Carlos is one of them. this both Sabrina and Toni find out at the vampire club when the Malcontents attack, thankfully they all escape unharmed, but Ian realises that Sabrina, Carlos and Teddy cannot rmal live and return to normal life so he takes them back to the surroundings of vampire head office. Ian knows that this is far from the last attack from the Malcontents and he has to keep Toni and her friends safe. As the story goes on, Ian goes to Sabrina's uncle's house and gets him to call off the police search for Sabrina and also gets him to hand over her money and her passport and give her the free life she deserves. Mean the Malcontents attack the day house but get nothing. The good vampires however get on with planning christmas and there party, which goes ahead with them all dressed as Santa and Toni Dressed as an elf. Ian and Toni manage to break away and get some time alone, to get closer and more sexual together, its kind of kinky but dead sweet until the Malcontents attack again and Ian has to leave Toni half way through but the bad gets get sorted out which is lucky, but it does end therer. After more failed attackes by the Malcontents, and another romantic session for Ian and toni where they have sex all day due to Ian taking the stay awake drug to do so. The Malcontents strike that night at the vamp tv studio's and threathen live on air to kill all the vamps in the studio if ian doesn't take them the drug to stay awake. Well what can Ian do he has to save the vamps. So he goes to the stduio with the good vamps and Toni, to save the day, under the watchful eye of every vamp in the world. Toni, Carlos, Howard and two vamps manage to take over the control room and change the tv to th outside broadcast where millions of vamps have appeared to save Ian from b eing hurt. but the Malcontents threaten to kill him if they do not get put back on tv, so they have to go back to the stduio where Ian passes on what is believed to be the stay awake drug, the malcontent takes it and believes thathe is unkillable. He says he is going to kill Ian now, toni cannot stand it and puts herself in the libe of danger for Ian. She over powers the malcontent trying to get into her head and kills him but the down side is he mangers to stab her. Ian takes her back to head quaters to be fixed. they manage to save her after a bad moment with Ian giving her blood tranfusion and Tino's help too.

I really enjoyed through this book, it was worth the struggle through it with the accent, i would read more in the series.

Alll I want for Christmas is a vampire by Kerrelyn Spark chapters 1-5
It took me ages to get into this book, possibly because I had to read it in a Scottish accent to understand a word of it or the fact I loved the last book I read so much. But I did get into by about chapter 3, when you get to know vampire Ian and his despration to fall in love with someone honest, intelligent and pretty but also has to vampire so he can be honest. When he meets Toni the new day guard, who is tough and can quite literally kick ass big time, he falls for her but the down side is she human.
Toni falls for Ian too but he's a vampire and after a vampire attack brought her here, to gaurd the good vamps who saved her from the evil malcontents, but she also has other ideas as well she needs proof that vampires exist, to save her room mate Sabrina from the nut case ward, she was also attacked my malcontent vampire's thing is though she told the hospital that who in turn now think she is crazy.
