The Concilium Vampires, Book I: The Spaniard (Concilium Vampires #1) by Angela Goldsberry Spotlight and Review
The Concilium Vampires, Book I: The Spaniard (Concilium Vampires #1)
All Michael Blake wanted to do was to have a normal, quiet life. Kind of hard to do, being a 500-something-year-old vampire. Still, he was giving it his best shot, turning his back on the vampire community, and trying to blend in with the mortals. Leaving the fast life of the Big Apple, he moved to Rhode Island, took up teaching art at a small university, and left himself with enough spare time to do nothing but paint.
But someone – or something – just won’t leave him alone. His past comes calling in the middle of the night, threatening to destroy the new life he’s so carefully constructed. His present is being consumed by an obsessed woman who’s giving him the supernatural hard-sell, and just won’t seem to take “no” for an answer.
And his future? His future is laid out for him in a deck of tarot cards, interpreted by a fiery-haired gypsy who haunts his dreams and burns in his blood. Can what the cards say really come to pass? Can this crimson-haired goddess be the indescribable love of his eternal life, prophesied by a fortune-telling parlor game? Can he incorporate her into his “ordinary” life while continuing to outrun the man he used to be? And will she be safe from Michael’s deranged stalker, or will her life be in IMmortal danger?

5 Stars
I was given this Advanced copy from the Author for an Un-Bias opinion.
This is my first Angela Goldsberry book.
I loved the story plot and her characters where amazing, you just have to love a brooding vampire who just wants to be normal, but alass things always get in the way,, well written great story line, sexyness, and the search for true love all wrapped up in this wonderful book that makes it hard to put down.
Hoping that Michael gets his HEA, and waiting in anticipation to see what unravels next!!
About the Author
Angela Goldsberry (b. 1965) was born in Peru, Indiana, but grew up in Philadelphia. She began writing poetry after a writing assignment for school sparked a hidden talent and caused it to combust, resulting in four fiery volumes over a number of years. In addition to poetry, she began to include tender romance stories to her repertoire, and it was there that she found her true literary love. However, her dreams of writing were put on hold while she established a career in medical editing and brought up two lively and wonderfully unique children. Thirty years later, a dream that her grandmother wanted her to finish a novel that was conceived decades ago, Angela took up the pen again. Now, she is working steadily on her novel, a smoldering, sexy paranormal romance, the first in a series of eight. She also continues to write short stories for erotic romance anthologies whenever new ideas rear their naughty little heads. She lives in Philadelphia with her husband Tom, and their children, Donna and Trey.
