Shiver (Texas Paranormals 2) by Christi Snow


A year ago Corey Abbott’s life entered the realm of the bizarre when he discovered the things that go bump in the night are real. But working for the local vampire council didn’t prepare him for were-deer shifters.

Nine months ago Dare Buckley’s herd abandoned him. Now, he’s slowly going mad from Lyme disease...something that doesn’t hurt normal deer, but for were-deer is fatal.

On one snowy, sleet-filled night, the two collided...literally.

This Christmas two men find love in the most unexpected place...a lonely, desolate highway.

It’s definitely not your typical meet-cute, but it’s a twist of fate that would even make Santa happy.

My Review:     (Thanks to NetGalley) 

The problem with short stories, is most of the time they are too short to actually develop the story. They come across as very basic and superficial and this book really isn't anything different. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't a bad book, I just feel like with the rise of ebooks, authors are pumping out novella's-for-cash at an alarming rate.

I will give the author this, at least she didn't do what a lot of bottom-of-the-pile authors are doing these days and added a shit ton of sex scenes and called it a full blown novel. Sex doesn't replace plot people! 

Not bad, but nothing amazing, and doesn't really give you that much of an idea of what kind of author Christi Snow is, as such I would give a full length novel from her a go, but only if I got it through netgalley for free.
