One of the first super mixed up paranormal book I've read in a long time. While the world building was sort of non-existent, it didn't really need to be there. Throw in some vampires, werewolves, two hot male leads vying for the lead female's attention, and lots of actions scenes, and you've basically got the gist of Once Bitten.The actions in this book is perfect. Really, really perfect. Alexa is kick-ass enough to be interesting, and really strong. Then the other side characters are equally pretty awesome, as far as fighting goes, or at least usefulness. Some of the lesser used characters definitely blurred together at times. Some of the magic/power aspects of this book really confused me at times. I wish there was a little bit more explanation on this, since it was more original than the normal powers of supernatural beings. Also since most of them seemed to have some sort of magic ability along with whatever they were (vampire, werewolf, witch, shifter, demon, half-breeds, heck they were all in there somewhere).The ending was pretty interesting, build-up great. Kept me reading up until the very end, and I would check out this series in the future. Rate: 3.5Overall, this is a slight above average book. I really liked how the main character was so level-head, she wasn't melodramatic or had hankering for drama.There's a love triangle and like every other love triangle my preferred lover is not the favorite. One thing that erked me was the over use of "metaphysical." There are so many other words that could have replaced this one.The reason I can't fully commit to this book being rated a 4 is because there wasn't that umph that really made you feel the emotions. There was detail and little extras added, but I still couldn't feel everything, couldn't live within the book.

Wow! I loved this book so much that I'm going to write a full review later today.
