Half-vampire Catherine Crawfield is going after the undead with a vengeance, hoping that one of these deadbeats is her father—the one responsible for ruining her mother’s life. Then she’s captured by Bones, a vampire bounty hunter, and is forced into an unlikely partnership.
In exchange for help finding her father, Cat agrees to train with the sexy night stalker until her battle reflexes are as sharp as his fangs. She’s amazed she doesn’t end up as his dinner … are there actually good vampires? Pretty soon, Bones will have her convinced that being half-dead doesn’t have to be all bad. But before she can enjoy her status as kick-ass demon hunter, Cat and Bones are pursued by a group of killers. Now Cat will have to choose a side—and Bones is turning out to be as tempting as any man with a heartbeat.

"REAd this book!!!! I loved it so much!! It was like taking all the best parts from all my favorit stories and putting them in one. WEll done Jeaniene, well done. I love Bones, Can I have him? I also have to say thank you to the book for not leading me on with a love story that a 12 year old will have. the love story was Adult, wich thank you for that I get so sick of reading these books only to have the love intrest say " I like you , I like you too lets hold hands" like 12 years old just starting dating, this book didn't do that thank god! I cann't wait to start the next book and I have all my freinds already starting on this one."

“Jeaniene Frost is dynamite. Halfway to the Grave is dark, sexy, and supernatural, blended with a touch of humor. I dare you to disagree—Cat will have you staked in five seconds flat.”
— Cheyenne McCray, New York Times bestselling author“Halfway to the Grave has breathless action, a roller-coaster plot, flashes of dark humor, and a love story that will leave you screaming for more. I devoured it in a single sitting and I can’t wait for the sequel. Sign me up for Jeaniene Frost’s fan list!”
— Ilona Andrews, New York Times bestselling author“Jeaniene Frost takes urban fantasy head-on and makes the genre her own with a winning blend of humor, sex, and real emotion that will leave readers eager for more.”
— Kathryn Smith, USA Today bestselling author“Take one half-human/half-vampire female with serious anger and parental issues, add in a sexy ancient vampire with his own agenda, and you have the makings for a truly combustible series. Sign me up for the sequel!”
— RT Book Reviews (4½ stars, Top Pick!)" I really enjoyed this book. It has a lot of action in it by a kick ass chick with romance as well! This book kind of reminds me of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, because of the main character and the Vampire boyfriend! The only thing I didn't like about this book was it felt like the relationship between Bones and Cat progressed too quickly. I felt like some of the getting to know you part was rushed. But other than that overall a very well written book with a great plot! Can't wait to read the next one. "
— Whit, 2/18/2014" Love Cat and Bones!!! A good romance and action book. Im diffenatley going to read all the books in this series. "
— Leeann, 2/6/2014" What a good story!!! I really loved getting to know Cat and Bones. Cat is a strong, spunky, feisty little red-head and Bones is a sexy, sarcastic Vampire with an English accent. These two make a great pair, I love their interactions. There is romance, action and a lot of humor thrown in too. Great start to a new series for me. Oh, and a great cliffhanger at the end too, can't wait to start the next one!!!!!!!!!! Hightly recommended series for my paranormal loving pals!! "
— Tracy, 1/10/2014" As much as this is romance, it has enough horror, action and adventure to reel in just about anyone. Bones is the coolest hitman you'll ever meet, and you'll not only love the 'courtship', but the laugh out loud moments that will make people think you've lost your mind. Great read! "
— Kathleen, 1/7/2014" This whole series is thoroughly fun and entertaining! "
— Leslie, 1/7/2014" The characters were just sort of...blank. The hero reads like Charlie from Charlie's Angels--just a voice giving instructions, no personality. And I'm not too comfortable with a love affair between a completely inexperienced, naive woman and a man who has beat the crap out of her repeatedly--calling it "training" doesn't make it ok. Left a sour taste in my mouth. "
— Britain, 12/15/2013" Take Blade and Anita Blake, a mature Spike as a love interest, and add in a whole heap of religious shame and you've got this book. All the derivation is a little bit annoying, but overall it's a fast and enjoyable read. "
— Dianna, 12/11/2013" It was a little...mature for teenage readers such as myself but I enjoyed it. I loved the heroine and adored her hero. It was funny, romantic (some may call it other things) and full with action. The entire series was great in fact. "
— Fatima, 12/7/2013" I LOVED this series! It has romance, fighting, humor, and most importantly, vampires! "

— Ali, 3/17/2013" The first installment is thrilling, kick-ass and very, very refreshing from the type of vampire novels I am used to reading.. I like both the male and female characters and their undeniable chemistry really hooked me on to read the rest of the series..Love it.. "
— Katherine, 3/17/2013" Normally, I enjoy Jeaniene Frost' books, but sadly, this book did not impress me. "
— Sarah, 1/19/2013" I loved this book. The characters, Cat and Bones are addicting. I have read all the books this author has written and am looking forward to new books of hers. "
— Tina, 12/9/2012" 2.5 stars. I agree with Felicia day when she says this is a Buffy rip off. I also hate it when everyone wants to jump the main character's bones because she's just irresistibly sexy. I think I got halfway through book 3 before I quit this series. "
— Kyndall, 10/16/2012" Was a wonderful book filled with action, laughter and romance. I couldn't put the book down and I'm now reading through the rest of the series just as fast. "
— Elizabeth, 9/10/2012" this book made me cry. I loved this book. I can't hardly wait to read the other books in this series. Cat is amazing and so is Bones. "

— Kelly, 7/25/2011" I love this book. The character of Cat is different and interesting to read. I love Bones. The storyline is different. A girl born half human/ half vampire that goes out and kills vampires because of her mother being raped by one. I love it. "
