As the only human to survive vampire infection, Milagro de Los Santos has become quite a celebrity among the blood-drinking elite. Too bad the perks of her condition—increased strength, super-fast healing—don’t pay her condo fees. There are other complications too. She feels guilty about her fling with decadent, enigmatic Vampire Council member Ian Ducharme, and she pines for her ex-fiancé, Dr. Oswald Grant . . . the fabulous man whose kiss changed her life.

It’s when Milagro—upset by Ian’s attentions to his neighbor—travels to London and enjoys a sexy flirtation of her own, that the blood really hits the fan. Suddenly, those around her are dying gruesome deaths and Milagro’s being interrogated. Who would kill to set her up as a murder suspect?

All she wants to is turn back the clock and have another chance to make things right.  No sooner has she escaped to Oswald’s ranch than an accident obliterates her memory.   Will the murderer come after her, and will amnesia spark a romantic do-over with Oswald—or will Milagro make all the same mistakes before she ever gets to say “I do”?

Haunted Honeymoon is the final installment in Marta Acosta’s Casa Dracula Series & it is one series I am sad to see end. Marta Acosta ends this series wonderfully & in a way you would never have suspected. 

Milagro is set up for murder & has no idea who would set her up. Then as she is escaping to Oswald’s ranch an accident happens that makes her loose her memory & it’s tough going. From the beginning, we’ve been following Milargo de Los Santos, the girl who could hardly pay her rent to a woman transformered by a kiss. Milargo has been through a lot in the previous three novels & has finally began to really grow up and know what she wants in her life. But what man does she want in her life? Oswald her first love, or Ian who is dangerous in more ways then one.

There was a part in the book that was my absolute favorite line in a book ever:

“Ah, but we all choose the partner who gives us what we need, not what we think we need, or want to need”

There was also a quote about big-headed pixies that I may need to talk to Mrs. Acosta about. Ahem.

We get to say a final goodbye to all our favorite characters & even get to meet a few that we haven’t met before. Haunted Honeymoon is action packed & full of the humor we have come to love in the series.

The Casa Dracula series was one of the first series I read where the heroine wasn’t a cookie cutter clone & I instantly fell in love with Marta Acosta’s writing style, it’s witty, quirky & full of laughs. In short, it’s my kind of book series, a lighter side of all the darkness. I may or may not have shed one or two tears while reading the final chapter, weirdly enough I feel like I’m loosing a good friend.

As a fan of the series, I couldn’t have asked for a better ending to the story. I was pleasantly surprised with the way Mrs. Acosta ended the series & stayed true the whole way through. I am sad to see the series go, but Haunted Honeymoon went out with a bang!
