Pretty Fly for a Vampire Guy by Leslie McAdam & CD Rachels

 


Clay

I suck at being a vampire—literally. When the Halloween Wave turned a third of the population into monsters, I thought I was one of the lucky ones. I get to have my fit twenty-year-old body for decades. And vampires are supposed to be sexy, right?

But now that I’m finally in university, I still don’t fit in. I was supposed to find myself and spread my metaphorical vampire wings. Yet, I’m not good enough to be an academic, and too inept at flying to hang with monsters like me. At least flirting with my new nerdy lab partner can be some fun in the meantime.

Owen

I can't stand my lab partner. It's not because he's a monster—far from it, I find vampires attractive. But jocks don't go for academics like me, especially airheads like Clay. We only need to get through this class.

Then one day we're nursing an injured bat together, and Clay's sweet, compassionate side rears its teeth. Despite my best efforts, this gorgeous bloodsucker has me enchanted. When he wants to learn to fly, how can I refuse? This jock keeps failing at taking to the sky, but I fear I'm the one that's falling. A nerdy human like me dating a himbo vampire could spell a monster-sized disaster.

Pretty Fly for a Vampire Guy is a spicy paranormal romantic comedy set in the Creepin U shifter universe. Don’t read if you’re not interested in nerd-jock connections, flying lessons through the forest, monsters at university, and yes, a happily ever after.

My Review: 4/5 Stars

From the world of Creepin U, we have a new story! This was such a fun world and I was glad to see these authors return to it. This story follows Owen and Clay, a nerd and jock who are very much meant to be! If they let themselves at least. Owen came to Creepin U to study medicine and hopes to be a monster doctor despite his parents constant worry for him. Owen works hard to maintain his grades and is just your typical nerdy boy. Who has a massive crush on vampires but with one particular in mind: Clay. However, Owen has found it more often than not, that liking a jock tends to end badly for him. But staying away from Clay becomes harder than he expected when they have to work together in a class they share. Add in taking care of an injured bat! He wants to stay away, but the more time he spends with Clay the more he sees a side of him he never expected. Resisting Clay may not be possible. Clay hasn’t had it easy since he became a vampire, but he is doing his best. When he meets Owen he is definitely smitten. But Owen seems to not want anything to do with him. Yet, Clay can’t help but hope things will change once they get to truly know one another. Perhaps he found the person he was meant to be with after! Very sweet story with these two! I hope we continue to get more stories in this world! It’s just a fun escape filled with wonderful characters. 

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
