3.75🌟 - it was good!
Such a silly little book! Perfect for the Halloween/fall season and such an easy romance to get sucked into. These books are sooo campy, but I love it! If you love a fake dating trope and vampires then check this one out!

Tropes (IMO):
- Fake Dating
- Snowed In
- Stranger to Friends to Lovers
- Forced Proximity
- Slow burn
- Golden Retriever MMC
- Vampire x Human
- Dual POV
Reginald is a walking green flag! I love everything about him. I love how even though he is clueless, he still takes initiative and respects Amelia. I felt close to Amelia, being a workaholic and never wanting to take a break because of a deadline. It was lovely of Reginald to find ways for her to relax and force her to enjoy live. At first, I hated A's parents cause as an Asian, I can relate LOL, the neverending questions and the invasion of privacy. However, towards the end, Dad saves the day with how he treats Reggie, and their interactions are so cute. Still, an AH move to not provide food for someone you're inviting tho.
I don't know whether to feel flattered or to laugh or to keep rolling my eyes because the conflict in the story was solved by the Internal Revenue Code and the scary IRS (I am also an accountant). Like the climax and the main part of the plan are mostly reliant on codes that most people would need to look for LMAO. I guess this is a ROMCOM so I'll let it pass.
The spicy scene (it’s an abomination that there’s only one) is perfection!
Overall it was a good read, with some aspects that I didn't like, hence the 4 starts. I would recommend this book if you like to laugh and just feel giddy. This book has proven that I am not a slow burn girly haha.
This was a fun read. I did enjoy the first book more than this one, but overall I had a good time reading this one.
SO FUNNY!! This was soooo much better than the first book in this series and I'm excited to see what happens next!
This is a good book if you're looking to read just for enjoyment. There's a little to the plot here but it's mostly just vibes and nothing else. They have a meet cute, they fall in love and the whole vampire human relationship isn't a huge deal (as expected!).
okay, I really enjoyed the first book in this series, so I was looking forward to this one, and I really really really really didn’t like it. it was hard to get though. moments like during intimate scenes referencing other characters from the last book that the FMC barely knows and it wouldn’t be appropriate to reference their book preferences while naked, like what? I also just thought it was unfortunately really boring. If the series continues I will read on but damn it will have to win me back.
A delightful read! Get ready to fall in love with this fake dating, vampire romance. Amelia and Reggie make for an entertaining couple, and the banter is a delight. A perfect read for spooky season!
Amelia is tired of having to answer her family’s comments about being single. So when she receives an invitation to another family wedding, she is determined to find a date. After a random encounter with a stranger, she decides he would be the perfect option. Reginald is a bit strange, but he’s good-looking. Reggie, who is actually a vampire and over 100 years old, thinks this fake relationship sounds like so much fun. As they spend time together, Amelia realizes there’s so much more to Reggie than she expected from her first impression, and she may want to be with him for real.
This was probably my favorite paranormal romance of the season. It was truly bonkers and had me laughing out loud. This book was truly so much fun to read!
Thank you to Berkley Publishing and NetGalley for the advance copy.
Just like the first, this was quick, fun, ridiculous and just what everyone needs right now. It's completely fluffy but in the best way and I will forever read anything Jenna Levine puts out.
My Vampire Plus-One was ok, but I wasn't crazy about it. I really liked the first book though. I would recommend it though.
This was a silly, fun paranormal rom-com that just worked. I’ve read a few cheesy romances lately that came across as cringey instead of fun, but that was not the case for My Vampire Plus One. It was a breezy fun time that kept me engaged throughout. I initially picked this one up for Halloween, but I would recommend it at any time of year as it doesn’t feel seasonal.
3.5 ⭐️
thank you to Netgalley for the eARC!
this was super cute and a quick read. Reggie was a great and fun love interest and the two had very cute moments. the ending being a little open-ended was different than other romcoms but I don’t hate it!
I didn’t like how insta-lust it had been and I feel like the tension and fake-dating could’ve been drawn out a lot longer than it had been, and I needed more Reggie POVs!! I also feel like there’s a lot of loose ends left over, especially the part where Amelia’s family doesn’t respect her dietary restrictions. Also. I was hoping for more fake-dating action at the wedding. Overall, very cute but could’ve been better.

•witty banter
•fake dating
•funny misunderstanding
•slow burn romance
genuinely made me laugh out loud so many times while reading this. it's witty with fun characters and just the right amount of slow-burn in there to make you want to finish the book in one sitting!
my only wish is that we had a bit more vampirism in the books. there’s only a little bit of focus on the vampire backgrounds & also what their lives are like or were like. i would love to see more about what being around humans is like to give the men some more depth.
thank you to netgalley and berkley pub for the copy of my ebook!
I absolutely loved My Roommate is a Vampire, but Reggie wasn’t my favorite character so I wasn’t sure how I felt about a book based on him. I’m pleased to say I was put in my place and am now a Reggie fan. Jenna’s follow up novel was a great time and I don’t think I could have enjoyed myself more! I’m going to need 637282 more vampire (and tbh any other creatures) books from her STAT.
The way I love this series! @jennalevine is writing pure romcom magic here. Amelia and Reginald were so sweet and goofy and lovable together. The audiobook was also superb, featuring narrators Helen Laser and Daniel Henning. If you love a fun romcom with spice and a twist (uh, he’s a vampire!), you’ll love this book! I received an advanced reading copy, receipt of which did not impact my review.
I ended up with a copy of the audiobook, and listened to it on my morning commute to work. Thanks for the ARC!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I loved My Vampire is a Roommate and honestly, I loved this one just as much if not more. 4.5/5 stars. I definitely recommend this if you're looking for a fun fluffy rom-com. You can read the books in any order as they are interconnected but each is a standalone.
The premise of this story was cute, but this was pretty boring. I felt like as the story progressed I found myself becoming less invested. I do think for others this could be a cute palette cleanser that is just a fun read but it fell flat for me.
Amelia is sick and tired of the barrage of questions she always gets from her family about her dating life. When she receives an invitation to another family wedding, she decides to ask Reginald Cleaves to be her date.
For Reggie, being a fake boyfriend is a perfect way to practice being human because vampires are looking for him and they would rather see him dead.
I love that Reggie is a little more than he seems to be at the beginning. He is loyal and wants the best for Amelia. This was such a fun quick read and it is on the steamier side as well.
Thank you to NetGalley and Berkley for the eARC! This was so much fun! I loved Reggie since My Roommate Is A Vampire, and his book did not disappoint. Full of humor, and a slow burn fake dating trope romance, this book was made for me. I absolutely loved it! So well written - a perfect blend of genres, Jenna Levine’s writing style is unique and unmatched. This is my favorite interconnected romance series!
