Devon was supposed to make me a vampire a century ago but I was murdered before he got the chance. Now he has all this opportunity and he keeps putting it off, I just need to figure out why. Devon is the love of my life so why do I feel pulled to Charles who just won't leave me alone? Charles comes to the library every night determined I will fall into his arms and his bed from the power of his dashing good looks alone. I want to say not a chance in hell but somehow, I find myself strangely drawn to him. I know where my heart lies, but can I follow my heart knowing that it could cost the lives of everyone around me? A Vampire’s Dream Hostage. This fool may hold Fate hostage, but that doesn’t mean she will suddenly fall at his feet. No matter how handsome he is.

Just how much can one girl take? A Vampire’s Fight The forces working in the shadows have grown impatient and the danger surrounding Fate grows with every second that passes.

With all her distractions will she find a way to stop Demeter and the Beast?

Book Description
The critical work examines the vampire as a spiritual figure--whether literal or metaphorical--analyzing how the use of the vampire in literature has served to convey both a human sense of alienation from the divine and a desire to overcome that alienation. While expressing isolation, the vampire also represents the transcendent agent through which individuals and societies must confront questions about innate good or evil, and belief in the divine and the afterlife. Textual experiences of the numinous in the form of the vampire propel the subject on a spiritual journey involving both psychological and religious qualities. Through this journey, the reader and the main character may begin to understand the value of their existence and the divine. A variety of works, poetry and fiction by British and American authors, is discussed, with particular concentration on Coleridge's "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner," Bram Stoker's Dracula, and Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles, as representative of the Romantic, Victorian, and late twentieth century periods of literature. A conclusion looks at the future of the literary vampire.

Book Description
Beware the Leaven is a vampire novel like no other. The definitive vampire tale. History's first vampire is identified, and their unending bloodlust is finally explained. In identifying history's first vampire, and the reason for the creature's birth, the novel breaks ground previously untread within the genre. The vampire's bloodlust is meticulously explained. Not just any blood will do, and there are caveats, even for the undead as they stalk humanity. But if the proper bloodline is ultimately found, humanity may well face a quick and unthinkable end. Only the custodians stand between the vampire population and their prey, and the custodians' line predates even that of the vampire. Beware the Leaven will cause the reader to think about vampirism as never before. Published in Italy (Newton-Compton) in 2007 as "il Vangelo dei Vampiri," Beware the Leaven is now in it's third Italian printing.
