How to Bite Your Neighbor and Win a Wager

Guides for Dating Vampires, Book 1

De: D. N. Bryn

Narrado por: Simon Dornet

Vincent Barnes has suffered four years as a vampire, and they've been the most miserable years of his pathetic life. Too poor for black market blood, he feeds from sleeping humans to survive. He tries to never intrude on the same prey twice, but after a single delicious taste of a long-lost childhood neighbor, he can't help returning for seconds.

Wesley Garcia has been waking up with fang marks. Lucky for him, he needs a vampire—to use as bait. He's certain Vitalis-Barron Pharmaceutical killed his mother, but to gain access to their covert research labs, he has to bring them a bloodsucker for their experiments.

Step one, a dramatic offer: Stay, and you can bite me.

Vincent leaps at the chance to gobble Wesley up.

Wes's plan is perfect. He'll befriend the vampire, then trick him into coming to the lab. No fighting, no fuss. But Vincent is more than Wesley has bargained for: sweet and shy, with intoxicating fangs that awaken new desires in Wes. As the two bond, Vincent believes he might have finally found someone worth putting his trust in . . . and Wes fears neither of them will survive the betrayal he has planned.

Contains mature themes.

Sweet romance

I loved the story and the flirting between the two main characters. Wished it was longer and with more spice

i liked this! (it was also definitely a fanfic)

you cant tell me this wasn’t originally a viktor x jayce fanfic lmao. wasn’t crazy about some of the plot but had some great moments! well written for sure but this is absolutely an arcane fanfic lmao

love it!!!

love the story I was hooked throughout the entire Reading! I can't wait to read the others apart of this series!!!

Speed ran this in two days!

A lovely story with two very goofy but sweet characters. Plot was good, simple and contained, which I think did this book well as I enjoyed the characters dynamic more than the revenge plot. 10/10 would vampire again

totally worth it.

ahhhh, I did not expect this story to be this funny and sweet. Omg, totally worth it. The audiobook is amazing, the narrator did an amazing job and I think it complemented the story perfectly.

Wes and Vincent are adorable. They are adorable together, and separately. I am so glad they got to meet again and be part of each others life properly this time. I think they got to have their kinda second chance when the time was right and when they needed each other the most.

This book has no spice, so if you are looking for that, you will not find it here, but the story does not need it in order to be perfect.

I highly re you to give a chance to this book/audiobook.

Sweet and fluffy and such a TEASE!

I really enjoyed this book. I loved the two MMCs. I thought they had wonderful chemistry and I couldn't wait to get to the next part of there story and relationship. I overall and overwhelmingly loved this story

with that being said what a damn tease it was. maybe it says more about me but I am not used to reading a book that is a romance that dosnt have a full scene in it. This left me craving more and being teased with such sweet and steamy little nibbles just wasn't enough for me.

I highly recommend this book for its sweetness and fun ride.

Amazing

I had such a great time with this audiobook! I absolutely enjoyed Simon Dornet’s narration (particularly with 1.3+ speed!), especially Vincent’s voice! Every time I heard Vinny, my heart 💗💞 Anyway, this was a joy to listen to!

Absolutely ridiculous but weirdly realistic

I love that everything doesn’t go perfectly. The characters are realistic but over the top in the best way.

Great story with amazing narration

This is a great twist on the vampire genre! Vincent is a vampire who is unhomed and just trying to survive. Wesley is the human he chooses to drink from one night, not realizing it would change both of their lives. Wes has been dealing with depression over the mysterious disappearance and death of his Mom. He thinks his chance for answers is to catch a vampire, could Vinny be the one?

The author has written a story with multiple layers and representation. Life without stability. Living with grief and loneliness. Living as young queer men. And the treatment of vampires and how that reflects treatment of marginalized people often in our society. Being the "other." The story and characters are well written and I enjoyed being along for their journey.

Simon Dornet is a new narrator to me, but I will be listening to him again! He has an engaging voice filled with emotion that allows listeners to immerse themselves in the book. His acting is spectacular and he truly brought Wes and Vinny to life!

If you enjoy a diverse romantasy with mystery, representation, and wonderful narration, get this audiobook!

Audiobook is closed door spice: 🌶️ (1/5)

Wes + Vinny

Overall this was a good read/listen. The storyline itself was both entertaining and adorable. The narration wasn’t bad either it was pretty good though not much of a variation between characters, but it wasn’t terrible. If you’re looking for a steamy vampire romance..look elsewhere. Where there was some spice..it was more insinuation than anything. All in all it was a decent story and will keep your interest throughout.
1.5 / 🌶️
