In the cutthroat world of professional sports, I’m the agent who always calls the shots. Until a decade-old feud with hockey superstar Banks Bennet resurfaces, and I’m forced to play nice.
When his agent drops him and rumors of a trade swirl through the league faster than a puck on a breakaway, I find myself in the dreaded role of Banks’s new agent. There’s no doubt I can save his career from crashing into the boards, but only if we don’t strangle each other first.
All I need to do is whip this man-baby into shape and negotiate an epic contract that will establish me once and for all as the top hockey agent in the league. No problem, right? But between babysitting Banks, battling perimenopausal mood swings, and fighting this annoying attraction to my client, I’m facing a hat trick of challenges.
Not everything about Banks is what it seems. Under all that bravado and childish behavior lies a sensitive and considerate guy who values more than just his time on the ice–leaving me to wonder if maybe there’s more to life than just wins and losses.
If I’m not careful, my emotions might have me losing control and throwing away the professional playbook for a shot at happily ever after…and that’s not how this game is played.
Tropes:
forbidden romance (agent x player)
menopausal woman at the top of her profession
slow burn
forced proximity
pro hockey
hilarious alpha hero
he falls first
opposites attract

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book in the PolyAm Fam series. First off Molly Rose the main character is a curvy girl and I love a book with a strong curvy FMC. Lachlan is Scottish and agrees to help out in a student’s thesis project. The sparks between Molly and Lachlan as the play progresses. Molly is part of a polycule. This is the first poly book I have read and I found the whole dynamic interesting.

Basil is the only book I’ve read in the Silver Springs series and can be read as a standalone. The book really sucked me in quickly as Basil wakes to find out she is suddenly a vampire. I did struggle to keep interest as Basil is quickly mated to so many and there was a lot of smut and not a whole lot of plot. I say this as someone who enjoys smutty books, it just fell flat at certain points. Overall, I did enjoy reading about Basil’s new life and business in Silver Springs.

Vegan Vampire hooked me and the hot Broccoli twins kept me hooked. This book is filled with characters I haven’t seen anywhere else and it was a wild ride. It is a Reverse Harem so there’s more unique creatures that all want a piece of Basil and I was here for it.

I wish there was more development of the Main character and it seemed like the book was supposed to be longer. (maybe I just wish it was lol) The spice was a pretty good 3.5. Overall I will be reading more from this author as well as the rest of this series!

What a unique story! A vegan vampire?! I really wasn’t sure how this story would work, but I really enjoyed it. Basil is such a loveable character and her mates! Yummy! The idea of her moving to a whole supe town and opening up her own shop is perfect. The residents we meet are different and interesting. I was completely wrapped up in this book from page one!

I am reading this first novel from the Silver Springs Pets Series. I was very intrigued with the themes of paranormal, romantic comedy definitely had me compelled to check it out. Basil is very intuitive and uses her intelligence in problem solving to her new development of being a vampire. She adjusts to her new situation and eventually moves to Silver Springs where she finds other individuals more like herself there. She ends up meeting some Supes who she is instantly attracted to, Theo, JJ, and Jo. One thing that draws her more to them is that they appreciate every bit of her, even attributes she is not proud of.

Basil has the first date she will never forget! On the way home from the date, which she met on a dating app, she was involved in a car accident. This accident left her turned into a vampire! The problem is she is vegan!

Upon leaving the hospital, after an episode of bloodlust. She finds a wonderful property in Silver Springs where she can open a smoothie and tanning business. This city seems to cater to those of a non human form! She also is able to create a mixture of blood that keeps her from having to rely on biting anyone.

Upon opening her new business she attracts three men. Will she make a choice? Will the danger one of them brings to town cause harm to Basil? You must read on to find out!

I will say this book can be read as a standalone. I have not read the previous books and did not feel like I was missing any information on any background. Now I am off to read the previous ones!

Basil (Silver Springs Pets, #7)Basil by K. Rose
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

At the very beginning of this book, Basil wakes up in the hospital not knowing where she is. She claims she feels weird and then the doctor starts panicking, mentioning that her eyes are bleeding. Basil knows she has to get out of there. She super-speeds to her lab (she is a biomedical engineer) to find out what is happening to her. All signs point to vampirism. The catch, she’s a vegan. She creates a serum that mimics blood so she would not have to feed off of anything living.

While Basil is researching her new found life, she comes across a dark web for supernaturals and finds a town called Silver Springs that seem to favour supernatural beings. Basil thinks it’s a great place to start a new life from and finds a place with a store front.

As Basil and her new friend/employee prepare for the grand opening, Basil meets some of the handsome supernatural men she will soon be seeing much more of. She went from having no one to having a family. When vampire hunters track her down, she has to maneuver everything while keeping them safe. She will have to trust those around her and open her heart to love.

I loved how the author wrote this book. It is written in first person and Basil is a blast. She’s sassy, quirky, smart, and relatively calm in tense situations. It comes across well in the writing. Basil was able to take a bad thing that happened to her and turn it into a blessing. I feel like Basil and I could be friends in real life.

This book is technically book 9 of the ‘Silver Springs Pets series’ but can be read as a stand alone. This is my first time reading a book written by K. Rose but after this one, won’t be my last. I really enjoyed this book and feel like I will enjoy more from this author!

What a great quirky read. I think that’s the word I am after LOL I mean how else would you describe a Vegan Vampire! Basil is in an accident and wakes up a vampire. So confused and needing a way to survive and remain Vegan she develops a serum to take care of herself. She decides to leave town, buying a shop with an apartment she sets herself up in a new town and well things just develop from there. I haven’t read any other books in this series and that did not hinder my enjoyment of this book in any way. I will now be reading others for sure though!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This romantic comedy is a great read with a unique perspective. You are introduced to the main character, Basil who is involved in a terrible accident. She’s provided a blood transfusion that ultimately turns her into a vampire. As we have all been told, vamps require blood to sustain their undead livelihood but what does a vegan turned vamp do in this situation?

Basil soon learns about the supernatural world, life in her new town, Silver Springs and against all odds, opens a very successful tanning salon/smoothie bar. In an effort to continue with her vegan life choice, Basil tries to create a vegan friendly solution to her current predicament.

In addition to all of this drama, she finds herself falling for a trio of interesting characters who openly love her, flaws and all.

Overall this book is entertaining, intriguing and full of surprises. You will also laugh a lot! I really enjoyed this and will continue to read additions to this series due to the entertainment factor.

Basil (Silver Springs Pets, #7)Basil by K. Rose
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Basil is a young woman who wakes up in a hospital not remembering how she got there, all she remembers is going on a date through one of those popular dating websites and the next things she knows is that she is in pain and extremely thirsty. Unfortunately, when the doctor checks her over, she is overcome with a need to bite him and even though she knows this shouldn’t be happening and so she runs away and heads back to her lab where she has to come to terms with the fact that she is a vampire, which causes a conundrum because she is vegan!

One good thing about Basil is that she is a biomedical engineer and so she does some research and creates a serum to help fend off the bloodlust, but now she has to make a decision about her life and how this will affect everything. As she is researching, she comes across a website with an interesting place called Silver Spring and that is when inspiration hits and she decides to open a smoothie and tanning salon and when the accomodation is approved, she heads out to a new life.

What Basil doesn’t expect is to find a few incredibly hot suitors, all of whom are supernatural like her, but when danger comes calling, will Basil be able to keep the life she is creating for herself, or will she really lose it all? In this reverse harem, paranormal romance, you will fall in love with the characters as they find their way up each other through a witty, sweet and spicy story of acceptance, realisation and romance.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Basil is a spicy, fun, and funny read. Basil is a vegan that has been turned into a vampire. She refuses to drink human blood. With her Biomedical Engineering skills, she develops a synthetic blood mixture that she takes with healthy smoothies. That is just the start of Basil’s new life, she buys a new place to live and run her new smoothie shop in the town of Silver Springs. She happens to have not one but three soul mates! Things get spicy from there on out. I loved the new take on Basil’s supernatural dilemma and the creativity. Basil is a fun and easy read that makes you feel good as she achieves in her newfound “life”. Basil is a standalone book; I have not read the other books in the Silver Springs series and thus it did not affect the story at all for me.

This is book 7 in the Silver Spring Pets series. I would say these books can definitely be read as standalones however I enjoyed this book so much I want to read the others. This is a reverse harem, paranormal romance. It is fast paced and it is full of steam, romance, supernatural beings, as well as a little danger.
For me I love a paranormal story with fated mates and this has more than one so I was a very happy reader.
Basil went on a date and her life changed in ways she couldn’t have ever dreamed about.
When she wakes she finds she is no longer alive but a vampire, but she’s vegan so how will that even work?
Wanting to move forward with her life she moves to Silver Springs and opens up a smoothie/tanning studio.
Finally she feels at home and when her mates come calling she can’t deny the pull towards them.
However things aren’t all happy and plain sailing as vampire hunters have followed Basil to Silver Springs and are not determined to destroy the life she is creating for herself. Will they succeed or will Basil and her mates win the fight?

Unique new twist on a classic genre. This is not only the first book I have read by the amazing K. Rose, but it is also the first book I have read in the Silver Springs Universe. Primary perspective Basil, but also glimpses of JJ, Theo, and Jo.
Basil was just a normal human until she woke up in the hospital after a fatal car accident and everything felt different, especially her body. Quickly discovering she was no longer a human but a vampire, her main fear was that she was a vegan, and she wasn’t about to change that now. Successfully becoming a truly vegan vampire, she starts over in the supernatural town of Silver Springs. Immediately after she meets her first employee and best friend Lainie. Soon after that she meets JJ and Jo, the owners of the local farm she got most of her ingredients from for her smoothie bar. They call her their flower, their mate. Still confused at the implications, enters Theo all in one day and is told again that she is his snowflake and mate. She never thought it was true vampires, shifters, clones, everything seemed out of a fairy tale, but the emotions were real and quickly she couldn’t resist the need and pull to claim them. Things were going great until hunters showed up and only saw her for the fangs and nothing more.
Can Basil succeed in surviving and living out her new life? What will her mates do to protect their queen? This town honestly sounds amazing and the new twists on supernatural’s brought a refreshing outlook on a highly enriched genre. While I haven’t read any of the other books in the Silver Springs Library (yet), I loved the little cameos by previous characters such as Amber, Violet, and Sugar. I look forward to going back and reading each of their unique stories as well as looking more into this amazing author’s personal works.

Basil is the first book I’ve read in the Silver Spring Pets series, or by this author in general. That being said, I had no idea what to expect. I’m a huge fan of your “typical” vampire story and was skeptical of such a unique take on the topic. I ended up really enjoying this book and the characters, especially our main female. She had a great personality and wit about her. The world building was fantastic and the story flowed from
start to finish. I would definitely read more from this author in the future. Also, how gorgeous is this cover art?! (And the recipes at the very end were a fantastic addition!)

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book I have read by the author, K. Rose, and it was a pleasant, quick and fun read. While this is book 9 in the Silver Springs Pets Series, it is a standalone and the series can be read in any order.

The book has an unusual take on vampires that is quirky with a side of romance (reverse harem). Have you ever heard of a VEGAN vampire? No, I didn’t think so. On a horrible date, the FMC, Basil, is turned into a vampire and ends up in a supernatural sanctuary called Silver Springs. The FMC is a brilliant biomedical engineer and puts her skills to use to create a synthetic serum, so she does not need to drink blood – hence being vegan. I loved how creative this book was in every aspect, the plot, the world building, and the characters. At times it did remind me a tad bit of Twilight, specifically that the vampires are sparkly. I do wish that the FMC had more character development, but it was enough to still enjoy her character thoroughly.

This book will take your emotions on a rollercoaster – laughing out loud to crying. If you are looking for a quick quirky read that is drenched in spice, fated supernatural mates, glittery vampires, and full of adventure then I recommend you definitely pick this book up and read it! You will not be disappointed.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book is…different and not necessarily in a bad way…it’s just ehh. I liked the premise of it and the set up of a variety (and I mean variety) of supernatural beings living in a warded village together was fantastic. I think the biggest thing holding me back with this book is the plot development, character development, and writing. I liked the premise but there were so many plot hole or places where all of a sudden things just happened (or didn’t happen) and it didn’t really make sense or it felt really rushed. And I loved the characters. Basil, Jo, JJ, and Theo make for quite the interesting reverse harem BUT their development (or lack thereof) really hinders my overall feel for the book and in turn them. They weren’t developed much past their initial introduction and there are quite a few holes in their stories…especially Basil and she’s our main character. There are also some side characters that I would have liked to see have more development but were just kind of there or just got completely cast to the side by the end of the book. As for the writing…it was tolerable in the beginning but as it went on I just felt that it got more and more juvenile and it was hard for me to finish. I found my self rolling my eyes and sighing quite a bit at what was happening and what was being said. I really think this could be a great story with more development and it’s not a horrible book as is. It just wasn’t really my cup of tea. But it is a quick, definitely spicy read that would be great for in-between those longer books.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is different! I mean how different can a book full of supernaturals be. Well throw in a vegan vampire. Which is exactly who Basil follows through the story. It’s her story and she unexpectedly became a vampire. Her biggest obstacle being she’s vegan. The author offers an interesting perspective as her character continues one with her life. Not the first time I’ve read a book with a synthetic blood substitute, but it’s definitely the way to go for Basil.
Basil’s new life brings a whole new sense of life and confidence. As well as multiple suitors claiming to be her mate. Jo, JJ, and Theo all say she’s their mate. To this she doesn’t understand how that’s possible but is willing to explore where it goes.
Jo and JJ are Jolly Green Giant Shifters. Who ended up being experiments gone wrong. Always feeling like they were meant to stay together, it comes as no surprise to them that they end up wanting the same woman.
Theo is a snowman shifter(first for me, definitely intriguing.) And he’s run for her even though he knows he shouldn’t have. Unfortunately his past may very well put Basil in trouble.
Can Theo keep his past at bay?
Can they all share Basil as their mate?
Those questions and so many more come about while reading this quirky story featuring supernatural beings. And a woman finding who she is while be granted a second chance.

This book was so funny and steamy! Let me first say, that I haven’t read the others in the series, but I still loved the book and can’t wait to grab the others!! This book made me laugh a few times out loud! The glitter comment being one! I might have even talked a friend into reading this series over that conversation!! Basil wakes up to find herself a vampire. Only problem is that she is a vegan and she doesn’t eat anything that had/has a mother. Not so good for a newly made vampire. Luckily she formulates a plan very quickly. She makes a serum that helps with the hunger, she buys a store with an upstairs apartment, and she leaves town. She moves to Silver Springs. A heavily supernatural town. She opens up a smoothie juice bar with a tanning salon. Opening night is a big hit. Her life has been a world wind of changes and the biggest one yet is all the men! Has she found her mate? And what is a mate? She is so new to EVERYTHING that she needs to do some research! Unfortunately, she’s kidnapped and no one knows by whom! Such a great story! Like I said, I can’t wait to read the others in the set! You can read it as a stand alone, but trust me, you will be just like me running to get the others! If you love a good supernatural romantic comedy with lots of angst, banter, and some steamy parts then this one is for you!

I wasn’t sure what to expect with this book as I hadn’t read any of their previous work before, but I was blown away! I am a huge fan of anything paranormal, vampire, or romance, so this was right up my alley. Little did I know that I was going to find myself actually laughing out loud at multiple points. I loved the character development, the flow of the story, and the plot. I really don’t have anything to complain about in this book other than I wanted more! I am absolutely going to pick up the rest of the books in the series because this author has crafted an unforgettable story here. The quirkiness here went straight to my heart, and I can’t wait to pass it on to my friends. I highly recommend picking up this book even if it doesn’t seem like your jam!

I was not prepared for the story that is Basil! The curvy biochemist, Basil, becomes a sparkly, vegan vampire. Once she figures out how to survive with her dietary restrictions, a whole new adventure begins. Basil’s mates (yes, plural) are supernatural beings that I honestly never would have thought of, but am completely on board for. K. Rose delivers romance, drama, humor, a little suspense, and a whole lot of entertainment! The characters are so unique and delightful and I couldn’t help but fall in love with them! With plenty of steamy moments between Basil and her 3 men, there was still a plot involved as well. The world building was fun and colorful and transported the reader to the supernatural community of Silver Springs. Basil is part of the multi-author series, Silver Springs Pets. I haven’t read any of the other books, but may have to check them out. And I will definitely be looking for more books by K. Rose.

So this was my first foray to Silver Springs and I cannot wait to check out the rest of the stories! Basil was a fantastic character, I loved that she was intelligent and witty and refused to accept that she had to give up her vegan lifestyle, despite now being a vampire! She ends up in Silver Springs where she creates her own serum so she can continue her vegan life style and opens a juice bar and tanning salon. I loved the reverse harem and Basil getting 3 sexy mates. There were so many quirky and fun characters throughout the story, I definitely think is a great story and Silver Springs seems like a great place to live!

Its the story of Basil who is on her way home from a first date and ends up in a very bad car accident. When its all said and done she finds out she is now a vampire. This leads to a problem because Basil is a Vegan so how is she going to stay alive? She decides to open a juice and tanning bar in Silver Springs where supernaturals are all over. There is chaos and fun all around. Once she opens the shop she meets her 3, yes 3, fated mates and talk about a lot! They are a lot to say the least. Basil is a BBW so having 1 mate is hard enough but 3 is out of this world and let me tell you, it really is! This is such a fun and quick read and I truly enjoyed it and I’m sure you will too!

Basil is a contemporary RH novel with a twist. When Bioengineer Basil wakes up and discovers that she has been turned into a vampire, she is devastated, strangely not because she is now a member of the walking dead but that she is a vegan and can’t drink blood. So she makes herself an new alternative and a new life. Moving to Silver Springs and opening her own juice bar and meeting a few hunky supernaturals along the way. I liked this book, I enjoyed how it had things in it that I had never seen in these kind of books before, it wasn’t just your standard vamps, wares and witches. I liked the characters but felt that it all seemed a bit rushed at times, I would have enjoyed more of the build up to things but it was overall still a really enjoyable read.

Basil is an original quick read that is quirky and will make you laugh and smile at the goings on. Basil is full of sugar and spice that ups the chemistry factor.
It is an intriguing, supernatural tale with a dash of tension, some danger, a little action, adventure, and a few twisty turns that makes the pages turn and makes it a fun and easy to read.
This story takes place in the quirky small town of Silver Springs, a town full of wonderful supernatural beings and where the unusual and fun is to be found.
I loved the characters, in this unique world where anything goes. It is a reverse harem romance with a BBW where fate has deemed more than one mate. The story is witty, clever and was a delight to read.
This Rom Com is a well woven paranormal tale with fated mates, a terrible first date and a vegan vampire. Oh, and let’s not forget the little green caterpillar.
If you love something PNR a little quirky and a lot different then Ms Rose is your gal.
I will have to go back and read the other books in this series as I started at the wrong end by the looks of things.
Happy reading PNR lovers!

Basil is part of the Silver Springs Pets Series and is a RH with a bit of a twist. I wasn’t real sure what to expect going in. This is a new author to me and I will definitely be looking into what other books they have written. I’m going to be honest this book fell a bit short for me I had a hard time connecting with the main character and storyline seemed a bit rushed and floppy. I’m going say if you like RH vampire stories with sizzle then this is for you. Im definitely going to try reading this book again at a different time and see if maybe that will make a difference. I look forward to giving this another shot and seeing what other books they have written.

Basil (Silver Springs Pets Series) by K. Rose – Review by Naomi McDonald

Basil (Silver Springs Pets, #7)Basil by K. Rose
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I didn’t really know what to expect going into this book, but I thought I’d give it a try.
I got a few chapters in and quickly discovered that it is too cutesy for me.

That being said, it would be a great read for anyone who enjoys a fluffy story. There’s a sparkling, vegan vampire, clones of the J. Green Giant, a snowman shifter, and other unique characters. It also has steamy scenes to keep things spicy.

Even though it wasn’t my kind of read, I’m giving four stars for originality. I applaud the author’s use of imagination in creating the characters.
