About this title: Vampire Ian MacPhie has a new face and a new mission - now that he looks twenty-seven instead of fifteen, he's on the lookout for true love. He claims that all he wants is another vampire ...until Toni Duncan comes along. Toni's best-friend is locked up in a psycho ward, deemed insane when she confesses that vampires attacked her. The only way to get her out is for Toni to prove that vampires exist. So Toni comes up with a plan: make Ian lose control, and beg him to transform her. He's reluctant - for he's deeply in love with Toni, and doesn't want to act too fast - and a passionate chase ...

"Ok, ok, I know! My husband brought this home for me as a joke because I've been watching True Blood and enjoyed the Twilight series. He thought he'd make fun of me with this -- the title just doesn't get any sillier. Well, I read the first four pages -- egads -- a hot Scot vampire in a kilt who is a virgin and just now looking for his one true love. I know, I know -- it's just an idealized romance. But, that said, it was a compelling story. I just kept reading. And now, I have to confess to Goodreads and put this on my "read" shelf because, don't cha know, I read all the way to the end."
"All I Want for Christmas is a Vampire by Kerrelyn Sparks may have a very unappealing title along with a cover that looks like the Batman signal in the sky, but this was an enjoyable read. Her vampire men are beyond sexy and the majority of her heroes are highlanders in kilts! This latest tale is about Ian MacPhie. Ian was changed into a vampire when he was barely a teenager, and because of it, he always looks like a young boy. Dating for him was impossible and since he has taken a drug called Stay-Awake for twelve days, Ian has aged to look finally look like a grown man. Now he wants to find a woman to spend his immortal life with. He is looking for female vampire companionship, and soon he is forced to put a single ad placed in a paper. And because of that, he soons has more than enough women problems. There is a rumor going around that Ian is a virgin, and soon all these vamp women want to be his first. Ian does have sexual experience, but has never had the long lasting relationship he has always longed for. He doesn't want to date any human women, but unfortunately he can't help but fall for Toni, a new security guard who watches over Ian and his other fellow vampires during the day. At first these two bicker back and forth, but then their feelings change to love.
Kerrelyn's books make me laugh because her characters are adorable and the situations they find themselves in are hilarious. Plus, her sex scenes are very steamy. There is one such scene where Ian and Toni are intimate and Ian wants to kiss and suck on her, but not on her neck or for her blood, but another place altogether. So very scandalous and hot I say!"
"I don't know why I got this book from the library, I must have heard of it from someone. Because just by looking at it and the title I thought it would be too racy, all lusty. But it wasn't that bad, there were two hot scenes, that's all. A little to decriptive for me. But the story line was great and it had me hooked from the first page. This is the first in the serise that I have read, I don't hink I knew there were other books in the serise, but I would like to go back and read the others now"
"Overall, not impressive. While the book did have it's share of enjoyable moments, it carried over its boring, dull moments, too. I enjoyed the character interaction of Toni and Ian, the occasional historical references, and early scenes of the book. However, I found Sparks to be far too chaotic with her subplots. There were subplots in subplots, none of which tied together or given adequate attention. Toni's best friend, Sabrina, being attacked by evil vamp. Sabrina being committed. Toni working for the "good vampires." Their neighbor being a secrete Were-animal. Toni being attacked by evil vamps. Ian looking for his true, vampire love...the list is truly endless. While I do understand a book must have subplots, my irritation comes from when the mini-plots don't tie together seamlessly.
Summed up in two words, quite simply, this book? Easily forgettable."
