Overview
Being a vampire slayer isn’t easy, especially when you attract two kinds of men: the dull ones who want a kiss and the bloodsuckers who want to end your life. It’s a straightforward job- avoid the mortals’ monotony and the vampires’ fangs.
But things take a turn when the slayers assign you to capture the powerful vampire overlord, Rurik. The more you learn about him, the less he seems like the villain everyone paints him to be.
In fact, you’re falling for him. With your loyalties in question, and the balance of power at stake, you must decide whom to trust carefully.
Sometimes baiting the enemy can be gratifying, but it’s a different story when you find yourself trapped.

Editoral Review
Annie Nicholas’ Bait is a paranormal romance novel that was first published on January 1, 2010. Nicholas is a skilled writer who has written several books in the genre, and Bait is one of her most popular works.
The book is a mix of romance, suspense, and supernatural elements that make it a thrilling read for fans of the paranormal romance genre.
The plot of the book follows the story of a mermaid named Lily who is on the run from a powerful sea witch. She seeks refuge in a small town where she meets a handsome werewolf named Gavin.
The two are immediately drawn to each other, but Lily’s past catches up with her, and she must fight to protect herself and those she loves.
Nicholas creates a vivid and detailed world filled with supernatural creatures that will transport readers into a world of magic and mystery. The main characters, Lily and Gavin, are well-developed and have a unique chemistry that will leave readers rooting for their love story.
The book has a fast-paced plot that will keep readers on the edge of their seats, with plenty of twists and turns along the way.
While the book is primarily a romance novel, it also deals with themes of family, loyalty, and self-discovery. These themes give the book depth and make it more than just a simple love story.
Nicholas’ writing style is engaging and descriptive, allowing readers to fully immerse themselves in the story. The book is well-structured, with a clear plot that flows smoothly from beginning to end.
The author’s attention to detail is evident in the world-building, which is one of the book’s strengths.
However, the book’s biggest flaw is its predictability. While the plot is engaging, it is also quite formulaic, and readers may find themselves guessing the outcome of the story before it happens.
Additionally, some of the dialogue can be clunky and awkward, which can be distracting.
Despite these flaws, Bait is a well-crafted paranormal romance that will appeal to fans of the genre. The book is a fun and exciting read, with plenty of supernatural elements and a compelling love story.
I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a thrilling and romantic escape into a world of magic and mystery.
I give Bait a rating of 3.5 out of 5 stars. While the book has some flaws, it is a solid addition to the paranormal romance genre and is worth reading for fans of the genre.
