About this author

Kara Thorpe started writing as a distraction in French class and never stopped (just don’t ask her to conjugate many verbs). Born and raised in Texas, she loves all things historical, scientific, and downright geeky. Though she prefers to write short, character-driven stories, she ventured into the world of the novel with the first book of the Family Lies series "Daughter of Deception."


While I work on Sometimes It is Rocket Science and The Art of War and Werewolves, I've been decompressing and coming down from my Ashwood-haze with a series of shorts. The title is Sweet Ride and the tagline, in a nutshell, is "A series of shorts on life, love, and the pursuit of aliens."

Be prepared for a whole lotta silliness.

Club Blood by Lauralynn Elliott
Club Blood
by Lauralynn Elliott (Goodreads Author)
read in February, 2011
Better than most of the vampire books flooding the shelves. The mystery portion was nice as was the romance.
A good book that could have had a stronger ending, but one that I enjoyed nonetheless. Perfect book for a rainy afternoon.

Audiobook didn't do anything for me. It is a standard NR book, so I knew what to expect, but the narrator made it hard to listen for more than half an hour at a time.
