Product Description:
When you’re immortal, being a mom won’t kill you— it will only make you stronger
Even though all the non-vamps in Broken Heart, Oklahoma, skipped town, Patsy Donahue has kept her hair salon up and running thanks to the werewolves prowling around. They know how important good grooming is, especially a certain rogue shapeshifter who’s as sexy as he is deadly. Now, if only she could put a leash on her wild teenage son, who’s up to his neck in danger. The stress would kill Patsy, if she wasn’t already undead. But her maternal instinct is still alive and kicking. And no one had better mess with her own flesh and blood…

Broken Heart, Oklahoma is a great place to live. If you're dead. Sadly for Patsy Donahue, the best (and only) hair stylist around, business is as slow has her non-existant heartbeat and she's reduced to giving shampoos to a handsome pack of werewolves to keep busy.
Life (no pun intended) gets busy as she realizes her talents to communicate with ghosts as well as raise them. Her sixteen year old son, Wilson is giving her grey hair, heaven forbid! And a sexy lycanthrope named Gabriel lights her toes on fire. But he leaves her with the burning question. Who is he and can she trust him when no one else does?
This is the third in the Broken Heart, Oklahoma series, and possibly the best yet. Patsy is one of the most down to earth characters we've been introduced to so far. She hasn't had it easy, but she's done the best she could and you won't find a more admirable, yet sassy vampire out there.
Touching on the seriousness of the subject of how alcoholism affects all members in the family with honesty and sensitivity, Michele Bardsley isn't afraid to bring such important issues into the light. This gives a realistic foundation to Patsy's story and makes her character development all the more palpable.
The obvious research into Celtic legends is apparent and adds further to the depth of the story. All the Gaelic terms (with a very handy glossary in the back of the book) are beautiful and the characters are all the more vivid because of those fine details.
So let me break this down. We have a unique world with a vampire PTA, lycanthrope body guards and a consortium forming their own paranormal community. Cool, right? Michele's raucous sense of humour is sewn throughout and will have you laughing out loud. I'm giving you fair warning because if you're anything like me, the snorts will start flying and we know that's not always pretty.
BECAUSE YOUR VAMPIRE SAID SO goes even deeper into the genesis of the vampires and the history is wrought with some cranky blood suckers who challenge even the oldest among them. Each vampire is hugely interesting in their own unique way, each one more dangerous than the last.
Patsy has it pretty rough. One of the things she has to adapt to is her power to see ghosts. Not only can she see them, but some of them just won't leave her alone, including her smoking, gambling Grandma. As Patsy comes into her own and harnesses her abilities, the dead will rise. And you will laugh until you cry!
The Broken Heart Oklahoma series is a must read, and it's going on my keeper shelf to stay.

Patsy is a 40 year old single mother who was turned into a vampire by Lor. If you have read the very first two books in Bardsley's Broken Heart series, you know the backstory.
However, this book disappoints.. Big Time.. Out of nowhere comes Gaberiel and he and Patsy bind. He comes for a prophecy and she lusts after him. The most ridiculous part of the whole book would have to be the prophecy and the Ancients giving up their power to Patsy. Why would a newly turned vampire have more power than vampires that are centuries old.. maybe even 5000 years old. It makes no sense.
I would not recommend reading this book. It is a waste of time and effort. This book will ruin the series for you.
Just read the very first two books and be happy with that. Trust me.

Fun read, I am looking forward to reading all 11 (or is it 10 now) of the Broken Heart Vampire stories.

I enjoyed the very first two books in this series. I was VERY disappointed in this installment. Patsy mated with Gabriel after a few brief interactions with him. And, she never once thought about her son when she did it. I may check out the subsequent installment from the local library, I won't waste my money on it.
