Short synopsis: Amelia tells a little lie to her family that she has a plus one for her cousins wedding, so she asks a random stranger to be her fake boyfriend. But Reginald has a secret, he’s a Vampire.

My thoughts: I really enjoyed My Roommate is a Vampire and couldn’t wait to get Reggie’s story! I loved his backstory and relationship with Frederick. He was so tender with Amelia, especially the care that he provided in relation to her dietary restrictions, but now I’m craving a giant bag of hot Cheetos.

Amelia is an accountant, and to be honest all the tax talk at the beginning almost had me snoozing. But I did like how her job came to play in the end! Her family might have actually been the worst, I was so disappointed in their neglect for her.

The audio on this was so well done, I loved how the dual narration brought these characters to life! I’m curious if we are going to get a Witchy book next with Zelda. I’m secretly hoping so!

My Vampire Plus-One is a sweet and charming rom-com following Amelia, an accountant, who is tired of having to explain her lack of a boyfriend to her meddling family, and Reggie, an ancient vampire on the run from a vigilante group. When the two bump into each other on the street and then later at a cafe, Amelia comes up with the brilliant idea to bring Reggie as her fake boyfriend to an upcoming family wedding. This was such a fun and quirky read!

My Vampire Plus-One is Levine's second book in her standalone vampire series. These books are so incredibly funny and sweet. This is one of those perfect rom coms where I couldn't stop giggling, but I also really loved the relationship between the two characters.
When Amelia accidentally makes up a boyfriend to get her family off her back, she realizes she is going to have to produce said boyfriend for her cousin's wedding. She strikes up a faking dating scheme with someone she keeps running into, Reginald. The only problem is Reginald is a vampire and he's convinced that she knows that.

Jenna has perfected the vampire romance! i loved the fake dating & forced proximity, but miscommunication trope is just not for me

I loved this one, even better than the first book and fake dating is such a fun trope! I think I related to Amelia more since I’m also an accountant and I love a Chicago setting! Reggie was chaotic and hilarious but endearing! It was also nice to revisit the characters from the last book! Highly recommend! 4⭐️

I enjoyed Levine's first outing/Star Wars-fanfic-turned-novel My Vampire Roommate, but I think I liked this one even better! Reginald was an absolute hoot in the first book, and he really got to shine in this. The fake dating/forced proximity tropes were done well, and the comedy interwoven with the romance was so fun. Had a good time with this one!

"My Vampire Plus-One" by Jenna Levine is a captivating blend of romance and supernatural intrigue that keeps readers on their toes. The witty dialogue and playful chemistry between the characters create an engaging and entertaining dynamic. Levine's imaginative world-building immerses you in a vibrant setting where vampires and humans coexist, adding depth to the story. The themes of acceptance and self-discovery are woven seamlessly throughout, making the characters’ journeys feel relatable and meaningful. Overall, this novel is a fun and charming read that will leave fans of the genre eagerly anticipating more adventures.

5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I liked this one even more than the first!!
I love it when a book leaves me feeling good and giddy!!

Amelia is an accountant who's all work and no play. Her family is constantly on her case about being single and working too much. Reginald is a vampire fugitive questioning his existence. When he randomly bumps into Amelia on the street, neither of them thinks twice about ever seeing each other again. But, as fate would have it, they do, and Amelia asks him to be her date for a wedding.

Even in book 1, Reginald was my favorite. He's so hilarious!! As simple as the plot was—fake-dating at a wedding—this was an absolute delight! No miscommunication, funny, and romantic!! Although this is a paranormal story with a vampire MMC, the setting is modern, not a fantasy, which I really enjoy! I will say that this does not give any spooky vibes. So if thats what you want, you wont find it here. If you read books like the Fake Mate, I would say its siniliar in that setting!

I don’t know what this author puts into her books, but I can’t wait to read more!!

This book is part of a series (Book #2). The first book in the series is My Roommate Is a Vampire.
This book is written similarly to the first book, and it is a sweet fun book that holds your attention and want to keep reading. Great book, Fang-tastic series. lol
This book can be read as a stand-alone BUT... I highly recommend that you read the first book Frist and then this one to get the full background story and some other interesting facts.

Amelia Collins (her brother is best friends with Cassie Greenberg; she was the main character in the first book and love interest of Frederick J. Fitzwilliam).
Reginald Cleaves (is "friends" with Frederick; the vampire in the first book).
Amelia bumps into him in the street and then she is in desperate need of a date, a plus-one to go to her cousin's wedding. She sees him again and decides to ask him for help.
As she hangs out with him she is realizing that he makes her comfortable, can make her laugh and is good with her family. Loved the interactions between Amelia’s dad and Reggie; Reggie loves his story and was soooo excited to meet her dad who is a Historian.
Reginald is def a great character in this book, he is very funny and super entertaining. He says some off-the-wall things. He makes this book amazing. oh and the way he dresses it so funny and something you will not forget.

This is such a great book, it was well-written and added the background storyline of The Collective. You will not know about The Collective without reading the first book (this is why reading My Roommate Is a Vampire is important in my opinion). I am a fan of this author and can't wait to see what new book she has coming out.

Did Jenna Levine just become an auto-buy author to me? Probably. My Vampire Plus-One made me laugh out loud, an accomplishment not many books have achieved!

The dynamic between Reggie (a slightly deranged vampire) and Amelia is endearing, sexy and funny. Reggie is the kind of man who would kiss the floor you walk on, and who doesn't love a golden retriever? There is spice in this book, but mostly only hook ups. There's one or two sex scenes and they're well executed. I've never been into vampires but well, one wonders. 😶‍🌫️

Is this a standalone? Yes! You don't need to read My Roommate is a Vampire to understand this book (in fact, I didn't). Reggie and Amelia are friends with book 1's MCs though, so I suspect it will be the more gratifying of you read both books. My Roommate is a Vampire is definitely in my TBR now!

I ended up DNFing this one. Book one was fun and I was interested to see how Jenna would turn Reginald into a love interest. Unfortunately I dont think they were interesting enough to keep me tuned in.

Another fun read! This is book two. She’s a CPA and needs a date to a wedding. He goes with her and right off the bat (hehe 🦇) tells her he’s a vampire but she doesn’t take it seriously. He’s a history nerd. And is so considerate of her diet. Please. 🥹💕 there were times the MMC felt really odd and forced. Because this was not a life changing book - it was still a fun and adequate read, I’m rating it 3.5 stars. Will continue reading by this author.

Even though I didn't like this one as much as My Roommate is a vampire as I didn't really care for Reginald as a character in that one. I did still find this one hilarious. As Amelia is a character that most of us single women in our 3os can relate to. As we've all heard similar things from family members before.

Such a fun twist on the classic vampire trope, blending romance, humor, and a touch of supernatural spice. It definitely provided a fresh take on vampire lore while incorporating modern elements that make the story feel current.

While the stakes are relatively low (no pun intended), the charm and humor make up for it. The witty dialogue and playful interactions kept me interested much in the same way as the first book MY ROOMMATE IS A VAMPIRE. Speaking of which, I loved getting to see snippets of Freddy (my fellow Swifitie) and Cassie throughout this book!

With that being said, there were moments where the pacing lagged, especially in the first half, which took away from the overall momentum. I was very glad for the Dual POV throughout as it kept me engaged and eager to keep reading!!

Read if you 🤍:
Quirky Characters
Slow Burn
Dual POV
Fake Dating
Forced Proximity

Truthfully this was a "did not finish' read for me. I did not get overly far into the book because it was just aggressively millennial. This is not an insult, it just didn't make it a good fit for me personally. I probably would still not choose to recommend it based on the fact that there are other romance novels I'd be more eager to recommend.

A swell follow-up to 'My Roommate is a Vampire' with all the loveable characters and cheeky writing we've come to expect from Jenna Levine. If fake-dating is your trope, this one's for you.

I had read the first vampire rom com and couldn’t put it down. This one really didn’t speak to me this time abc fell flat for me .

Jenna Levine’s vampire series so far has been wonderfully quirky and fun. I think it’s a great read for Halloween season/Fall, especially for those who like light fantasy & just want to have a good time! It’s also acts as a great palette cleanser! The humor and writing mesh well together, and overall I just had a great time.

I absolutely adore this series. Rom-com plus vampires...Sold! My Vampire Plus-One is such a fun read and gives us a chance to get to know Reggie better. He is such a cinnamon roll MMC. I loved his interactions with the serious FMC, Amelia, and how he was able to bring out her fun side. I really enjoyed this one and cannot wait for the next.

This is a paranormal romance with fake dating. It was quite quirky but still an enjoyable read, the spicy in this was just three chilies.
