A few hours ago, Sherry Carne would have sworn that vampires didn't exist. That's before rogue immortals rampage through her store, leaving bloody chaos (literally) in their wake. The kicker comes when Sherry learns that one of the vamps on the bad guys' trail may be her life mate. Her head says it's impossible. The rest of her takes one look at Basileios Argeneau and has much more interesting ideas.

Whatever Basil expected in a life mate, funny, outspoken Sherry isn't it. But mind-blowing chemistry and instinct don't lie. They tell him something else, too??that Sherry's connection to the immortal world goes deeper than she knows. And that she's in the kind of danger only Basil can save her from??if she'll just trust him, now and forever . .… (mer)

I used to love this series but not so much any more. General criticism of the last several books which applies to this one as well. There is too much interaction with the rest of the vampire family who have already had their books. Can we please meet a couple who were not set up by Marguerite? That just takes all the fun out of it.

In this story there was so much interaction/interference with/from the family that the two leads barely spent any time together. They seemed horribly mismatched and nothing in the scenes where they interacted led me to believe they were developing any sort of deeper relationship. But hey it all happened in a week so... There was plenty of sex which was a bit icky since they were basically strangers. I know the whole sex is great between life mates thing but they were still just strangers hooking up.

This series used to be cute and funny but I guess for me it has just gone on too long. No new or fresh ideas. Sad face. ( )

Overall I liked this story but the overall calmness of Sherry in the beginning seeing Leo attack a woman in her store and hearing about vampires just through my ability to believe out the window. I think the author even realized it was a problem as she tried to address it but at that point it was hard to lose myself in the story. On the upside several extra tidbits were made available and we get to see past couples again.

After 20 some books the series has had it’s up’s and down’s for me. I have my favorites and the not so great ones, but this time around I wasn’t disappointed and had a marvelous time returning to the Argeneau series.

I’d say this book can be read as a stand-a-lone or be a starter into the series.

~~~~

The Immortal Who Loved Me delivers a new storyline with a little mystery, humor, and a sweet romance.

I loved the start. Sherry won me over on the very fist page. I liked her and liked that she had a good head on her shoulders. Stephanie, a little girl we have seen pop in and out of the books, was a nice addition. The poor girl has it ruff. I liked her interaction with Sherry and loved her comparing lifemates to pizza when explaining things to Sherry. Made me laugh.

The humor was remarkable in this one. I loved the miss pronounce of Basil (pronounced Baw-zil). Took me by surprise and had me smiling. Then their was Bricker he was kinda of an ass in this one, but boy did he have me laughing when he spit out all the different names for a mans penis. Yes, their are several names to call a mans penis and that whole scene was hilarious. Really, you need to read it.

Basil was adorable. He totally screwed up explaining things and had Sherry thinking someone slipped her something, until they shared their first kiss and then, well she starts to rethink things. I loved Basil and Sherry. They had several great moments. It was just so much fun reading about these two.

It was fantastic for me as a fan of the series to see old favorites pop in. I just love seeing old characters in any storyline show up.

We finally and I mean finally get closer on Livius, one of the bad guys who has been reeking havoc throughout several books. I’m glad that’s done, but we still have one more bad guy and all of Livius sons to find, but part of this plot comes to a closer and I’m glad.

I did have some issues with the book.
- I didn't like how abruptly the ending was. We learn that Sherry’s paternal grandfather will show up and then the book ends.
- I also wasn’t to found of how this book handles consent when we learn some very disturbing things about Sherry’s mother’s past and who her really father is. This was explained by Elvi, but how it was explained ya it makes some sense, but still it’s rape in a form.
- I also felt that Basil and Sherry needed to talk more about the kids. Basil has had a kid every 100-years with a friend. This was just said and then they move on. I can understand where he's coming from, living so long, but still it's a hard issue to tackle and I felt the author didn't tackle it. I wouldn't be able to move on from this very easily.

Even with the few issues I had, I still ended up really liking this book. The Immortal Who Loved Me brought me back to what I love about this series. A fun loving story filled with characters to fall in love with and humor to keep you laughing.

Rated: 4 Stars

This was kind of a slow starter for me, it took me nearly 50 pages before I was really engaged. There were some parts that were so unrefined I wondered if a ghost writer was used, but it got back on track and turned into the wonderful story I come to expect from the Argeneau series. Can't wait for the next one!! ( )

This book is number 21 of The Argeneau Family Series. I can say that I have never been disappointed by a book in this series. Lynsay Sands is a brilliant author who keeps you captivated with her characters. This is the story of Basileios (pronounced “Baw-sill-ee-os”) “Basil” Argeneau. Basil is one of the eldest brothers of the Argeneau family.

Meeting Sherry Carne, a mortal, gives Basil renewed hope. Sherry is an independent woman who owns and operates her own business. Through an interesting turn a fate Sherry is enlightened to the fact that vampires do exist and wonders if she is dreaming or going crazy.

It is very easy to get caught up in the lives of the Argeneau Family. This series is definitely one worth reading.
