    <body><![CDATA[This book was such a surprise. When I first glanced at it, it seemed very chick lit-esque, which usually isn't my kind of thing. But, it was $3.00 in the sale pile at Borders and when I flipped through it, the dialogue seemed funny and snappy. I thought &quot;oh what the hell&quot; and went for it. ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/12928520">more...</a>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[What's a girl to do when she discovers she's the main course on the menu?<br/><br/>Hip, funny Milagro de los Santos thinks she's finally found love and a home at the California ranch of fabulous Oswald Grant and his urbane relatives, who have a rare genetic disorder that some call vampirism. But Milagro is bewildered when she's excluded from an ancient and mysterious midnight ceremony whose participants include Oswald's unfriendly parents, a creepy family elder, and Milagro's ex-lover, the powerful and decadent Ian Ducharme. What skeletons are the vampires keeping in their designer closets?<br/><br/>When Milagro's life is threatened by a rogue family member, she flees to the desert to hide. Instead of solitude, she encounters an egomaniacal actor, a partying heiress, a sly tabloid reporter, and a lavish spa full of dark secrets -- all of which might help her find a way home. ]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I actually liked this a bit better than Happy Hour at Casa Dracula, the first in this series.  Not sure why, since most of it takes place away from the ranch.  But it got more into vampire culture, and less in the &quot;we've got a genetic condition&quot; area.

    <![CDATA[What's a girl to do when she discovers she's the main course on the menu?<br/><br/>Hip, funny Milagro de los Santos thinks she's finally found love and a home at the California ranch of fabulous Oswald Grant and his urbane relatives, who have a rare genetic disorder that some call vampirism. But Milagro is bewildered when she's excluded from an ancient and mysterious midnight ceremony whose participants include Oswald's unfriendly parents, a creepy family elder, and Milagro's ex-lover, the powerful and decadent Ian Ducharme. What skeletons are the vampires keeping in their designer closets?<br/><br/>When Milagro's life is threatened by a rogue family member, she flees to the desert to hide. Instead of solitude, she encounters an egomaniacal actor, a partying heiress, a sly tabloid reporter, and a lavish spa full of dark secrets -- all of which might help her find a way home. ]]>

    <body><![CDATA[This book is really 3.5 stars!<br/><br/>Milagro is such a fun character - if she were a real person I would love to sit down for a bunch of drinks with her.    This book is neither scary, suspenseful, or enlightening, but its fun.   Grab a glass of red wine (or any &quot;red&quot; drink) and enjoy...]]></body>
