Kate moved to Paris with her sister after the death of their parents and lived in a bit of a daze of grief until she met Vincent. And she had no idea that Vincent wasn't just a nice "and gorgeous" guy. She finds out differently soon enough and learns the truth of Vincent and his kindred, but she can't bear the idea of him dying so often even if he'll come back to life. But is living without him any easier? Meanwhile, Georgia is Kate's opposite, taking Paris by storm and making friends wherever she turns. There's much more action to come and not just wondering what will happen with Kate and Vincent.

Amy Plum knows Paris well and brings the city to life to the point where it's almost another character in the novel. While New Orleans seems to rein as the supreme city in which to have a paranormal romance, Paris makes a great second; it's the city of love after all. I liked this book, but I do have a couple quibbles: Vincent was almost too good and too perfect and that always makes me suspicious. And I would have liked to see a bit more action and tension. I had an easy time predicting some of the story, but Plum has a flowing prose style that works and has built likeable characters for a good balance. She did a nice job not only creating the revenants but also giving these beings a strong and believable back story. With so many books about vampires and zombies, it's refreshing to see a new twist on the paranormal since it's such a popular genre right now. Fans of young adult paranormal fiction-especially those who favor a bit more romance over action--should definitely pick up DIE FOR Me. I'm curious to see where she takes the storyline in the second book in this series.
