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!

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!

Read if you love:
- Tax laws and accounting
- Bullet Journaling
- Snowed in and One Bed
- Age Gap (have to include this when there is a vampire involved)
- Fake dating

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.
