"Vampire romance"
In Las Vegas where vampires and other paranormal species
reside, the rarest species is Cara Kim, a virgin
stripper. Over three centuries old Seamus Fox is the
campaign manager for the reelection of Ethan Carrick as
president of the Vampire Nation, but an ugly incident has
brought Cara to his attention. Ethan's opponent Roberto
Donatelli caused a fracas that left Cara's life in danger
as he does not care what happens to the inferior mortals
and she is collateral damage. Seamus converts Cara to save her life. However, he is
shocked how attractive he is to her, but assumes she heats
his blood because he has abstained from sex for two
hundred years. On the other hand, Cara struggles with
this alpha hunk ordering her and her five pets around
though she would not mind taking a bite or two from him.
As they fall in love, Roberto raises the stakes planning
to use the new born conversion as a pawn to eliminate
Seamus. Vampire romance readers will feel they BIT THE JACKPOT
with this fun contemporary tale. The background contains
a biting "political" campaign in which one side uses
bloody tricks that would have sent Lee Atwater roving for
a different job. Throw in Vegas and a likable pairing of
an abstemious vampire and a newbie and that leads to a
delightful read. Harriet Klausner

SummaryPolitics make strange coffinfellows...
Vampire Seamus Fox is supposed to be the campaign manager
for a Vampire Nation presidential candidate. Instead, he
finds himself running around Vegas keeping tabs on the
candidate's wife and female entourage.
Seamus has had his fill of women: a disastrous and deadly
love affair has haunted him for over two centuries. Talk
about baggage. But suddenly he finds himself obsessed with
a mysterious stripper who dances behind a screen. The
sultry yet shy Cara Kim whets his appetite for more, but
leave it to Seamus to fall fangs over feet for that rarest
of Vegas attractions-a good girl.
After a sudden run-in on the street, though, they may soon
have a lot more in common...
