Remy and Sabine felt so three dimensional and real. I'm typically not quite fond of vampire stories but this took a new twist on an old subject and threw in both adorable and hot and heavy scenes. Recommended this book to a friend already-- 10/10 would recommend.

Starting off I thought no these two cannot be the main heroes in the story! Spoiled brat and ego centered vampire. As the story went on it became spellbinding and I wanted to know when is the wedding and what will go wrong?? Good reading pleasure just wanted more pictures forming in my head.

Characters were easy to visualize, relationships between them were believable and dialogue was pleasurable to read. (The sexual tension could be cut with a knife, by the way!) I have a love/hate relationship with series books...I always get sucked in! While this has closure that satisfies, the author has peaked my curiosity to a point that drives me nuts! Now all I have to do is explain the charges on my buddy's credit card!

Good golly move from that town, have a sex change or run into the mountains screaming " the British are coming the British are coming". They will think your blood is crazy too and leave you alone. The romance want not.....

Girl is given to vampire overlord. Girls hates vampire. Vampire hates girl. But not really, because they both have teh hotness. Bad guy does stuff. Vampire saves girl. Vampire wedding happens. The end.

I wasn't impressed by this book. It was an interesting idea, but I didn't like the writing or the characters. Normally I'm not overly critical of a character's behavior (unless they do something absolutely loathsome, like be sexist or litter), but these characters were just so immature.

I really just couldn't get over how immature the characters, especially Remy, acted. These were the last characters I wanted to picture in any sort of sexual situation, so I basically skimmed those parts. It seemed like this book tried so hard to be dirty, but it didn't succeed. Remy's taunts were so juvenile I was cringing.

The conflict in the book was forced, and a little ridiculous. Throw in a luxurious mansion, requisite trips to Europe, a shopping spree at a ridiculously expensive store, $600 shoes, and a weird vampire party, and you have a book that incorporates elements of every other major work of vampire fiction out there. In fact, this felt like "True Blood" fanfiction at times. The book even referenced Eric Northman and Damon Salvatore, who Remy said reminded him of himself.

This could have been interesting, but the characters ruined it for me.

This is possibly the beginning of a great paranomal romance series. It has vampires in this story but I suspect we will see other creatures in subsequent books.

In 1798 Thomas Crowley struck a deal with Bastien Florien for protection of the settlement Willow Creek. Bastien promised protection from other worldly creatures that have invaded the township and would contiue to invade because of something mystical in Willow Creek. The arrangement is that every 10 years someone is chosen to be fed on in return for protection.

Sabine Crowley is in the runnning to be the next blood host. This is not an honor, this is a curse. She will give up her life and her dreams because of a pact that was made. She is chosen on her 18th birthday, she will be the blood host for Remington. There is no escaping, there is no running this is her destiny.

Remington is a 400 year old vampire, sired by Bastien. He is content with his immortality the way it is. He is summoned by Bastien and made aware that it is his time to return to Willow Creek. He is introduced to Sabine and the two despise each other immediately. Remy fully enjoys making Sabine angry and is sure his time with her will be torturous.

Throughout we watch the relationship change and grow between Sabine and Remy. We see life and death circumstances, we see that there are secrets buried in Willow Creek that need to be uncovered.

This is Sabine and Remy's story, proving that sometimes arrange relationships are created in the stars. But it also opens the door to wondering what is really hiding in Willow Creek!

Stephanie Summers’s “Willow Creek: Craving” is the beginning of a great new series. It has elements of Shirley Jackson’s “The Lottery” and Suzanne Collins’s “Hunger Games” mixed into a spicy paranormal romance. I love the dream sex – very Lynsay Sands. The characters and the story are very well-developed. I can’t wait to read more about Willow Creek which is apparently some sort of vortex for beasties (like Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s Sunnydale). Basically, this is a very skillful blending of the best plot elements from your favorite storylines into a unique new series.

A definite page turner! The storyline is smooth, captivating and make you fall in love with each character from the start. I expecially like the way Stephanie Summers brings Sabine and Remy together and how their relationship develops and climaxes at the end. The end definitely leaves the reader wanting more. I would recommend this book to anyone that is into the paranormal/vampire thing. I love it so far and can't wait to begin reading the next book in the series. Thank you Stephanie Summers for such a read! !!

I was hooked from the start and enjoyed this book all the way to the end.
It has a good balance of everything, hot vampires, twists, turns and mystery.
It left me wondering and wanting to know more about the little town of
Willows Creek…What it is about the town that draws rogue vampires or
is there something else sinister lurking about? Can’t wait for more to find
out.

This was a free download from the store so I figured I give it a shot. There were times I wanted to quit reading but decided I've already started so why not finish...maybe it might get more interesting. There wasn't enough emotions between the main characters to make you want to like them. Everything in the storyline happens so fast without much thought to it. I enjoy reading paranormal novels but this one just didn't do it for me. I need more romance, action, plots, and captivating interaction between the characters. The characters were just too plain and boring.

This is a really good story. It grabbed my attention from the very first page, all the way through. This wasn't some bad vampire book. The way the author has written about them is just perfect. Sabine and Remy are great together, even though I was mad at him at times. I can't wait to read more.
