She quickly learns that Oliver is not ordinary, nor is the rest of his family, including a sister who openly hates her and a brother who will stop at nothing to get revenge.
As she fights for her life, and Oliver’s love, Laney discovers that the fictional world of vampires isn’t so fictional after all. Nobody is safe, especially Laney, Oliver’s most important priority, and he will stop at nothing to protect her. With her mortality at risk, and a commitment revealed that she, without a doubt, knows she wants, Laney’s life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn…

I’m a bit mixed on this story… I found the story engaging and the character likable but at the same time there are some plot holes that really caused confusion. The big battle at the end was one of those, while the primary bad guys stake in things is known it was very unknown why all these others people were causing havoc and mayhem, it seems very out of the blue. Some of the things characters did seem forced to cause extra drama and tension, one of those instances was Laney’s break down, it was just out of place and out of character. There was also a ton of angst and the characters were pretty immature, we repeat things like he's gorgeous and cute smile way to much. Since one of the characters is supposed to be 35 it was really out of place....While I did enjoy reading this book I do not think I’m going to read the others. The story is not finished but it’s been 3 years since the last book so I think I will stop here.

Laney The Brookehaven Vampires Book 1 eBook Joann I Martin Sowles Reviews
Laney starts out with Laney Alexander is in class when she meets the handsome Oliver Knight. She instantly has a crush on him, and they start to form a relationship. But things start to change when she finds out Oliver's secret.
There are things I like about this book, and things I don't like. Spoiler Alert!
The Things I like about the book
1) I love the vampire aspect of the book. The vampire's are different from other stories, and it makes the book more unique and interesting.
2) I love the relationship between Laney, and Oliver. They are perfect for each other, and I really want to see what happens between them.
3) The fact that during the whole book there seems to be something really strange going on with Laney's father. Like the fact that she's never met him. I have some ideas about that, but I wish it would have been revealed, or at least hinted to it.
The things I don't like about the book
1) The ending. I really hated how it ended, it just made me mad. Total cliffhanger.
2) I didn't like how Oliver wouldn't tell Laney certain things about Julz, but then once she had seen her do
the things he wouldn't tell Laney about, he then told Laney. So I thought that was seriously pointless. It seemed to cause drama that wasn't needed in the story at all.
3) I have a love hate relationship with Laney. I love how she takes the whole vampire thing. But I hate how she deals with Julz. It really drove me nuts.
Overall because of these things the book ending up being only okay. I will probably read the next one, but not sure about after that. I just hope it gets better!
The beginning of Laney reminded me entirely too much of Twilight, complete with Twilight references. Girl goes to school (ok so she was in college - not a big difference) meets guy in class and later finds out he is a vampire. The first half was so slow paced I nearly gave up on it. I managed to stick it out and finish it.
Oliver was portrayed as the typical mysterious overly gorgeous vampire boy. It was obvious early on what he was (with the thermos and blood stained lips afterward) yet it seemed to take Laney awhile to figure it out. I didn't feel like the story actually took off until half way through when she met Olivers family and he met her Aunt.
The instant dislike the Aunt had still didn't seem to compute with Laney. The biggest relief was Laney's personality. She had a spine and wasn't afraid to speak up - though she wasn't observant.
The introduction and involvement of Oliver's family is where a lot of the action, humor and mystery come from. Julz is a gothic vampire bonded to a very bad antagonist Oscar, Oliver's brother. I didn't quite understand why Oliver took Julz away, I mean yeah Oscar may be bad but if they were bonded and she chose her path to be with him it shouldn't have mattered to Oliver. I suppose the little added extra surprise of a certain smaller vampy had something to do with it.
I liked the action scenes and did laugh along with some of the humor. Overall for me the book wasn't my cup of tea, it just didn't do it for me.
Overall Rating 4.25 Rockin’ Stars
A little while back, it was suggested by some of our followers that we needed to read Laney (Brookehaven Vampires #1) by Joann I. Martin Sowles. I was intrigued because this was the first I'd heard of the series. Well, I'm hooked! This book captured me at the beginning and I couldn't put it down until I was finished and that's saying a lot because it's not a short story! It doesn't have a happily ever after ending because the next book continues the saga. This is Laney and Oliver's story and it's action-packed!
Laney Alexander is a junior in college and she lives with her best friend Kierra Blake. Their first day of school is a doozy! Kierra ends up passing out in class and Mr. McHottie helps get her to the school nurse. Laney is drawn to Oliver Knight and it’s very difficult for her to focus when he's around. She's been raised by her aunt after her mother died when she was only two. Her father isn't in the picture and we aren't really told where he is. Oliver Knight is an enigma, and he seems to read Laney like a book. He knows when she stares at him in class and when she's happy or sad. He slowly begins to insert himself into her daily life. The chemistry between Laney and Oliver sizzles. They are different in every way, yet fit together like two pieces of a puzzle.
This story is fast paced and you are left hanging at the end. There are so many twists and turns that you are not sure if you are up or down and your emotions reflect it also. The characters are complex and layered. They are not easy to figure out at all and when you finally believe you have, something new begins and you are right at the beginning again. This is a fabulously written book and a welcome addition to my library. I look forward to reading the next installment in this series.
