My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Hypothesis: paranormal romance is one big madlib.

Our heroine is a [description of paranormal attributes:] immortal faerie princess shapechanger weatherwitch healer psychic clairvoyant trust fund baby no for serious who gets involved with a [type of paranormal man:] vampire. Duh who has angst about [specific variety of manpain about his paranormal nature:] biting her and drinking her sweet sweet blood. They live in [location:] Texas and [verb and modifiers:] occasionally solve crime Also, there's a [love triangle:] love triangle.
