Standalone: Yes
Part of a Series: New Orleans Nocturnes boon 1
POV: Ethan and Jane

4/5

Licensed to Bite is the first book in the new Orleans Nocturnes series. It was funny and self-aware making fun of the heroine and calling her out on her annoying character traits. The premise of a vampire who faints at the sight of blood isn't new but is still fun. The cast of characters introduces were fun and Licensed to Bite was a great start to a series that can be fun.

I received this audiobook for free from Audiobooks Unleashed. This is my honest and voluntary review.

Carrie

This is a great, funny story. Jane and her best friend Sophie are in New Orleans. Jane is a blogger and she is there to blog on the Mardi Gras. What she didn't count on was running into the very sexy and handsome vampire Ethan. Ethan is a vampire, he has a strong reaction when he meets Jane, something that has not happened in a very long time. Thinking she is his late fiancée reincarnated he clams and turns her into a vampire. Jane wasn't made for this lifestyle. How is she going to adjust will she? It's a really fun listen as well.

Delicious fun...

I really enjoyed this book, the storyline was well written and developed, the characters were really likeable and the chemistry between Jane and Ethan was undeniable.
Definitely a fun and entertaining listen, can't wait to hear book 2.

So funny

Jane and Sophie are in New Orleans when they are taken home by 2 vampires as Sophie is too drunk to get home. Ethan puts a mark on Jane marking her off limits to other Vampires but he doesn’t realise he’s put the mating mark. As Jane can sense him she follows him and is run over and left for dead so Ethan turns and that’s where the fun starts. Jane isn’t what he expected she sassy and takes no crap from anyone and is not afraid to tell them what she thinks and that includes the Vampire council. Loved listening to this Jane is so funny and she’s brought to life by Hollie Jackson’s narration.

Very Funny

Thought this was a pretty amusing tale that pleasantly surprised me. It never really took itself too seriously and had me quite literally guffawing as I listened. At first, I found the narration a little jarring especially with the voices of the male characters, but after a while, I properly got into the story and even that didn't bother me, I was having too much fun. I mean, to be honest, the whole concept had an amusing genius to it that you just have to applaud, I mean a vampire that faints at the sight of blood? Hehe, it's just so wonderfully daft that it's great.

I liked Jane, I thought she was chirpy and chipper and just bursting with character, it did start to annoy me with the whole, I don't belong to anyone schtick, feel as though the point was drummed home one too many times. It was obvious that she was strong and independent from the way she conducted herself, I really didn't feel like we needed to be told so many times. I thought that Ethan was an interesting character, he got more entertaining as time went on and mostly then it was because he was bouncing off Jane, getting frustrated at her bubbliness. I also felt more connected to him when his past was revealed a little more.

I will say that you will not be bored with this, it's ridiculous and unpredictable but that is half the fun. I recommend this to anyone looking for a good chuckle with a bit of spice sprinkled in.

Great, light hearted, romantic comedy

This is book 1 in the series and I listened to this on audio.
I really enjoyed this book, it was light hearted, full of humour and a little romance.
Jane can't stand the sight of blood, which becomes a problem when she is turned into a Vampire by Ethan.
Ethan was convinced Jane was his reincarnated fiancee but soon discovers that wasn't the case, in fact she's the complete opposite.
Jane was what I imagine to be a southern belle. With her fathers position in politics, she was able to talk her way through any situation, which seemed to frustrate quiet and reserved Ethan. I loved the chats with her best friend Sophie, and the way she handled every situation.
The narration by Hollie Jackson was brilliant, the accents and the delivery really added to the listening and helped immerse me j to the story.
