130991 Hi, Karen! Looks like you enjoy vamp novels as much as I do (grin). I just finished an urban vamp series I really enjoyed. If you haven't read the "Anna Strong Vampire Novels" series by Jeanne Stein, you might really enjoy that one. The first book is called "The Becoming." Happy reading and magickal blessings!
