Reviews for Happily Never After

[cynthiae77 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

If you like the Night Huntress series by Jeaniene Frost (or even if you've never read one of her books), you will love this short story.Chance is asked by Bones to help out a dear friend of his from his past. Chance has to stop a bribe-induced wedding, and save the reluctant bride's brother from mobsters.If it's been a while since you've read the Night Huntress series, you might have to think a minute or two to remember who Chance was. But, honestly, once you start reading this story, it doesn't matter. You will love Chance anyway!

This was a good story, complete on its own. Isa and her brother are in trouble with the mob and vampire Chance gets involved as a favor to Bones. You'll have to read the story to see how Bones got involved in the first place. I would have liked this story better if it would have had something to do with the Night Huntress series. Bones makes a short appearance, but other than that it really was an independent story from the rest of the series. This story took place during the four years Cat and Bones were apart (between books one and two), so it would have been fun to see what one of them was doing with their time.

Great character and plot development. An additional book in the series but separate from Bones & Cat. Action packed love story.

I enjoyed this novella quite a lot. In truth, I wouldn't have minded a full length novel about Isabella and Chance. I'd like to see more Chance period. I still missed the combo of Cat and Bones in this book but Bones' short appearances were great.

Re-read and realized I had read it in an anthology. I like Frost's world. Looking forward to a new book from her!

That was fun! I hope Chance and Isa make an appearance in the next books!

Although this isn't a Cat and Bones book, it does briefly include them in the story. Isabella, or Isa as she likes to be called is planning a wedding to a man she doesn't want to marry, but feels obligated to because of his dangerous personality. Chance, a good friend of Bones' comes to the rescue as a favor to Bones. Believe me when I say, if you like Bones, then you'll love Chance too, but no one can replace Bones in my heart. He's a steamy and sexy character, that will capture the heart of Isa just when she needs saving. This is yet another great read by Jeaniene Frost, that everyone must read. It's short and sweet, packed with sexy vampires and exciting action. This book is definitely worth a rating of 5/5.

I would've given it higher stars if they didn't fall in love in... like, two hours...

Very nice, short novella. Had some humor and a lot of violence and bit of romance.

[dbookwhore · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This is a short story about a woman named Isabella and her brother Frazier. Frazier becomes mixed up with the mob, and his involvement causes Isa to be forced to marry a man she has no desire to be with. Lucky for Isa her grandmother has an old friend named Bones; and Bones has a loyal friend named Chance who comes to save the day. I have had this book for awhile and I have put it off for a long time. I am such a huge fan of Cat and Bones love story that I wasn't sure how I would react to any of the other Jeaniene Frost love stories. I was concerned that I would read the novel, and spend every page wishing it were another adventure of Cat and Bones. I was pleasantly surprised to realize it isn't Bones and Cat that keep me coming back for more; instead it is the writing of Jeaniene Frost that captivates me. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story, Jeaniene Frost has a great way of making you fall in love with the characters she creates. The characters are always well structured, and the women in these stories never just sit around waiting to be saved, they are front row ready for action. Jeaniene Frost does such a marvelous job writing about vampires you would think she was one herself, I am keeping my fingers crossed she really might be. The details she uses to describe the hunger each vampire experiences and the scents that come over them put you right into the vampire’s skin. I highly recommend this book to adult readers, this is one of my favorites series, and anyone I talk to that picks up the books in The Night Huntress series, and The Night Huntress world becomes instantly addicted.

This novella is set in the Night Huntress world. Isabella is engaged against her will to a mobster. The mobster is holding her brother prisoner to ensure her cooperation. Her grandmother seeks the help of Chance, a vampire with a heart of gold, to free her from this arrangement. The story is pretty good and we learn some more about the way the Night Huntress world works. Chance is not my favorite vamp that I have met in this world, but I would not kick him out of bed.
