The undead can really screw up your senior year . . .

Marrying a vampire definitely doesn’t fit into Jessica Packwood’s senior year “get-a-life” plan. But then a bizarre (and incredibly hot) new exchange student named Lucius Vladescu shows up, claiming that Jessica is a Romanian vampire princess by birth—and he’s her long-lost fiancé. Armed with newfound confidence and a copy of Growing Up Undead: A Teen Vampire’s Guide to Dating, Health, and Emotions, Jessica makes a dramatic transition from average American teenager to glam European vampire princess. But when a devious cheerleader sets her sights on Lucius, Jess finds herself fighting to win back her wayward prince, stop a global vampire war—and save Lucius’s soul from eternal destruction.
MY REVIEW
I really liked this book. The first few pages I was kinda iffy,I thought it was gonna be trash and then all of a sudden after 20 pages of reading into it, it got good. The characters started getting better. For people that love vampire romance books, you'll defiantly love this book. The story starts out with 17 year old Jessica seeing a strange guy at her bus stop who happens to call her by her birth name(she's adopted) Anastasia. Then it so happens she see the same exact guy(Lucius Vladescu) in her English class who claims to be a foreign exchange student from Romania but she later discovers during the day when Lucius is at her house for dinner(her mom invites him) that he is a vampire prince sent to court her for marriage cuz she is a princess and they were promised to be married at birth to bring to fighting vampire clans together in peace and that at 18 if she is bitten she will become a full fledged vampire. Jessica instantly hates Lucius and wants nothing to do with him and believes he's just some crazy guy in a cult. Lucius is soon staying in the garage apartment at her parents farm and Jessica starts falling for him while he pulls away. If you want to know more I suggest go and read the book. It's a cute story in my opinion and I will admit I really liked it.
