Count on Jenna Levine to always give you a wild suprise of the paranormal. A tender, occasionally ridiculous, but romantic story about a Vampire and a Witch.

“Road Trip with a Vampire” is exactly what it says on the tin: a sunshiney human and a grumpy vampire are forced into a cross-country road trip that spirals into reluctant friendship, romance, and undead hijinks. Think “Twilight” but better.

While the plot takes some delightfully absurd turns, I still had an absolute blast with it. And perhaps those absurd moments were the reason I had enjoyed it to the extent that I did. It is an incredibly refreshing story that balances humor with themes of grief, identity, and learning how to live (despite the fact we’re talking about a vampire x witch romance but it fits, ok?)

This is a fang-filled, feel-good rom-com perfect for fans of paranormal romance. A solid 4 stars for charm, character chemistry, and cozy undead chaos. Absolutely need more Jenna Levine!

Thank you so much netgalley for the opportunity to read this book as an arc
I can’t explain how sad it is to have reached the final book in this vampire interconnected series
I’ve had so much fun throughout this series, and this book was t any different. Obviously don’t go into this expecting a masterpiece literature, but if you want something silly to read and have a nice time this is it!

Thank you to Berkley & NetGalley for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.

First of all, Jenna I just wanna talk - what do you mean this is the last one in the Vampire series?! This was such a fantastic close to the series, I think it may even be my favorite! Zelda & Peter's chemistry was so delightful and I truly loved that we got to see more of our fav jokester, Reggie. This book is the true definition of a paranormal Rom Com, I was giggling for most of the book (and then crying because, well, if you read this you know why.) Also the animatronic chickens did NOT disappoint.

If I could rate this 100 stars I would, I cannot wait for all of you to read this & to listen to the audio after it's been published!

ARC review: 5 ⭐️
What was this book about: a road trip with a vampire
Did this book deliver: yes, it delivered a road trip with a vampire
Was it a good road trip with a vampire: f$ck ya it was.

Also- heeyyyy jenna I see you spicing it up a bit 😉

Loved it.

*4.5 Stars*

This book was a beautiful culmination of this series (even if I hope she'll change her mind about this being the last one!). So many excellent tropes: only one bed, amnesia, past becoming present, and some good old-fashioned arson!

TLDR: a witch (Zelda) agrees to go on a road trip with the amnesiac vampire (Peter-- or Petey to Reggie) in the hopes that he figures out who he is, and she can regulate her magic away from prying eyes. There's also goat yoga. And also much angst about why people like goat yoga.

Zelda, while not present in the previous books, was an unseen force in "My Vampire Plus One" (for reasons that are spoilery for those that haven't finished that one). It was really interesting to see how the person Reggie used to know contrasts with the person Zelda is trying so desperately hard to be. "Road Trip with a Vampire" manages to continue the series' trademark sass + existential crises but in a way that felt fresh and heartfelt.

"Road Trip with a Vampire" beautifully illustrates that it's okay to change what you want in life-- and it's okay for your deepest desire to be having a 'boring' life.

Thank you to Berkley and NetGalley for this ARC 🫶🏻

I’ve loved this entire series, it’s such a fun vampire romance with a witchy twist! Zelda is a 400 year old witch that has left her magical life behind to run a yoga business. When Peter, a vampire with amnesia, shows up at her door with a note from her friend Reginald, she decides to help him! When they find out who he truly is, they have to decide if their love has a future.

There’s some mystery, magic, a road trip, and romance! Peter was soooo sweet and he was obsessed with Zelda. Everything she did made him in awe of her! Reggie’s cameos always kept me laughing!

If you’re looking for a fun vampire romance with spice, then this one is for you!

Beyond sad to learn this series is coming to an end! I’ve read all three books now and found them to be my comfort reads! This book was no different, Zelda and Peter stole my heart.

I loved the road trip premise and amnesia trope. I had so much fun reading their witty banter and learning about both their backgrounds. I found the book to maybe be a bit long, but I just prefer my rom coms a little shorter so just a preference.

I can’t wait to recommend this book to my audience when it comes out! Can’t wait to see what Jenna writes next!

-Paranormal
-Road Trip
-Vampire and a Witch

LIKES:
-Both lead characters were well-developed
-Ending was very cute
-Mystery element with flashbacks and twists was fun
.
DISLIKES:
-Pacing: This book had a really slow start and the pacing was really up and down.
-Less Humor: I wish there had been more of the quirky/wacky humor in this one, like there was in book 1. I felt like this one was more serious than the other 2 books.
-Some of the dialogue was a bit cliché. Some lines were used that have been in many other romcoms.

Yeah, so I love this series. So fun, so romantic, and just an overall good time! I loved each of these down bad vampire mmcs. This book has more of a mystery element than the previous two. It kept me guessing at what was going to happen and it kept me entertained. I'm sad to see the end of this series, but excited to see what Jenna Levine rights next!

Thank you NetGalley and Berkley Publishing for access to this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I loved how this story didn’t just flirt with familiar paranormal tropes but gave them real emotional weight. It had all the charm of a cozy road trip romance wrapped in magic and mystery. The banter was sharp, the heart was big, and the world felt like a place I never wanted to leave. The romance was soft and strange and so beautifully earned. Every page made me grin or ache in the best way. I absolutely adored it.

A vampire with amnesia and a witch who accidentally sets things on fire, head out on a road trip together! This is the fourth and last book in the My Vampires series and I thought it was the author's best book yet! Zelda is a witch who has worked hard to create a new life for herself, with her yoga studio that she runs with her two best friends. She uses yoga to help her manage her magic problem – she lights fires accidentally! She has been trying not to use her magic after disastrous results in her past.

She is surprised when Peter, a hot vampire, shows up at her studio and asks for her help. He has amnesia and Reggie (from My Vampire Plus One) sent him to her, thinking she might be able to help him. Then Peter starts getting threatening letters, but all he can remember from his past was waking up in an abandoned bank with a journal. He begins to worry that he may have worked as a Fang for Hire, doing something shady. When Zelda has trouble controlling her magic, she decides it might be a good time for them to take a vacation. They go on a road trip together and visit places they saw in his journal hoping to jog his memory. It's funny and spicy. Also, there's a good twist in the story I didn't see coming. One quibble I had was the third act break up but I loved how perfect Zelda and Peter were for each other. (They are able to open up with each other about their past.)

I’ve enjoyed this charming and lighthearted vampire/witch romance and I’m sad to see this series coming to an end. I look forward to seeing what the author comes up with next! This was 4 1/2 stars for me and I rounded up to five here. Thanks to the author, Berkley and NetGalley for the ARC in return for an honest review. My full review will be at All About Romance closer to the release date.

It’s so bittersweet that we are saying goodbye to this adorkable vampire romcom series. For this being the final installment it did not disappoint. Instead it actually exceeded all my expectations.

I’ll be real honest when this 3rd book was announced I was really nervous. Mainly because I felt like it didn’t need a 3rd book. But Jenna Levine proved me wrong. Our final book follows a witch named Zelda who we had previously heard mentioned in the other two books. But I digress. Zelda is in a bit of rut with her magic when Reginald quite literally forces her to help Peter. A hundreds year old vampire who’s come down with Amnesia. The pair decide they may be able to help each other out and decide to go on a road trip. Zelda can work on releasing her pent up magic and Peter can untangle the fragments of his memory.

I feel like I need to put this disclaimer in. Technically according to the publishing world this can be read as a standalone. However, my personal choice would be to not read this one until you’ve read the other two. I say this because several of the previous book characters do make appearances and I wouldn’t want anyone to be confused. Now that we got that out of the way the fun part begins!

First off, I love that the plot for the last book was different than the previous two. For the last two books we’ve had human/vampire romance. And finally we get one of my personal favorite trope vampire/witch romance! I loved everything about Zelda and Peter’s relationship. The road trip mixed with slow burn romance was just what I was looking for. I also loved that we had dual POV, and some past/present POV. Which usually I don’t like however the way it was executed made me a firm believer that it can be done correctly. Lastly, I wanna talk about my favorite character out of the entire series, Zelda. From not really wanting her book to then becoming one of my favorite MFC. Zelda is a such a strong, kind and independent woman. Which was refreshing to read when the last two books our MFC at times were a bit skittish. But not for Zelda. She knows about vampires and she doesn’t fall for their quips.

Finally, the big question. Would I recommend this book? YES, and not just for those who enjoyed the previous books but also for those who are new and wanting to start this series. So please check this book out when it releases later this fall! Lastly big Thank you Berkley Publishing and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review

4.25/5 stars! This is by far my favorite book by Jenna Levine yet. I have said in the past, that it is kind of hit or miss, because at times, the humor is so over the top it feels satirical. In this book, Levine has hit her stride in balancing humor with charm and I thoroughly enjoyed the story of Zelda and Peter.

Absolutely adored this Novel from Jenna Levine! She really stepped it up in this book!

*Review edited and restricted to respect the author's release date*

This book is an absolute treat. I laughed. I sighed. I wanted to curl up in the glove compartment and stay with them forever. Jenna Levine writes with wit and warmth that makes even the undead feel alive.

This series was the vampire revival my millennial heart needed.

In this final instalment we follow a witch named Zelda who is hundreds of years old and a vampire with amnesia named Peter. Zelda has hung up the keys on magic and opened an unsuspecting yoga studio when a confused vampire stumbles upon her in the night. Together the pair embark on a road trip together to piece together fragments of his memory to unlock who he is, and to release pent up magic on Zelda's part.

Whilst this can be read standalone I loved getting to revisit the characters from the prior books like Reggie and Frederick! Having the switch up from human / vampire romance to witch / vampire was also refreshing. Zelda is a strong character who knows vampires all too well! While this book lacked some of the quirky ancient vampire humor that I came to love in prior books, it stands on its own well still! And to Jenna Levine for reinvigorating my love of vamp lit, a thousand thank you's.

For everyone who enjoyed the first two books, you'll want to mark your calendars for this final instalment!

It has been a fun ride with Frederick, Reggie, and Peter. Enjoyable and great to visit with characters from the other books.
Thank you for the ARC, NetGalley.

road trip with a vampire was such a fun, cozy, and chaotic little escape. jenna levine has this really charming way of blending humor, heart, and a little mystery into her stories, and this one definitely delivered.

i adored peter. he’s such a soft, sweet vampire with a genuinely kind soul. his confusion and vulnerability made him instantly lovable, and watching him try to piece together his past while also trying to make sense of the present was both entertaining and surprisingly emotional. and zelda was such a standout. she’s strong and sassy but also clearly working through a lot of her own stuff. the journal entries at the start of each chapter gave such a cool glimpse into her past, and they added a lot of depth to her character without feeling heavy.

the road trip setup was just perfect. it gave the story this constant movement and unpredictability that kept me engaged the entire time. plus, the chemistry between peter and zelda was just the right kind of slow burn—awkward, sweet, and a little spicy when it needed to be.

i’ll be honest, if it weren’t for the reading slump i’ve been in, i probably would’ve devoured this in 24 hours. it was so bingeable and easy to sink into, which makes me think a reread when i’m in a better reading headspace would hit even harder.

that said, i did have one small gripe: the pop culture references. some of them really took me out of the story because they were just… so cringe. i get that they were supposed to make the characters relatable, but for me, it felt a little forced at times. it didn’t ruin the book, but it did mess with the vibe a little.

still, this book was genuinely enjoyable. i loved getting lost in this quirky world where witches go to yoga, vampires get tipsy on diet coke, and enemies become allies (and maybe something more) on a wild ride to indiana. definitely recommend if you’re looking for something magical, romantic, and lighthearted with just the right amount of emotional pull. i’m sad the series is over, but really excited to see what jenna levine does next.

thanks to netgalley and the publisher for this digital arc in exchange for my honest review!

I actually screamed when I read the acknowelagements of "Road Trip with a Vampire" and found out this was the end of the series. I've read Levine's other two vampire romances and adored them, and this is no different. This book has it all: sweet romance, sexy spicy, and fun humor. This was a joy to read, and I cannot believe the series is over! I will be encouraging everyone I know to buy this book, because I loved it!

This book is a delight from start to finish. It makes me want to go back and reread the other books in the series. I'm bummed that this is the last in the series, but excited to see what this author will write next.
