Kelley Landry and his two brothers, Kieran and Dillon, used to gather together and do research about vampires. But as years went by, due to the influence of their powerful family, Dillon and Keiran started to lose interest in anything paranormal and decided to follow their parents' footsteps.

But Kelley still continued with his quest, and that is the very reason Queen Edith sought him out and together, they conspired to meet the first ever vampire they'd ever see.

I hate to admit this, but this ...more

Kelley Sullivan is sure vampires exist. Years ago, he and his brothers - the three of them, triplets - were interested in vampires. Now that they are adults and close to finishing college, Kelley has never lost that passion and is sure they do actually exist. He'd been helping out at the bar of a family member, when a woman who introduces herself as 'Queen Edith' walks in looking for him.

Edith's online name is one known to Kelley, and her latest research has her not only convinced that vampires ...more

Sarah Cradit never ceases to amaze me with her ever expanding world of the Deschanel and Sullivan families. Not only does this short keep up with the excellent writing that I can always count on from Cradit, she also delves into the subject of the vampire in which happens to be one my favorite genres. The vampire that Sarah writes about in this story is unlike any other I’ve read to date. I enjoyed how this story unfolded, with unlimted potential for future stories begging to be written. I can e ...more

I dont think there is anything sarah can't write about! this is an amazing short read. Kelley Landry is a young adult who is discovering who he is all the while hiding his secret of researching vampires.

I am a hu ...more

I so love Sarah's writing about the Deschanel and Sullivan famlies so for me to want to read a short about another branch of the clan, and mixing vampires in to it, another of my favorites, well it's a no brainer. Even though this is a short story I really want to follow Kelly Landry and Queen Edith. The possibilities are endless for Kelly and I need to know what is going to happen to him. Quick, imaginative, with easy to love characters, I couldn't put it down!! ...more

This! This right here is why I love Cradit's books so much. I am having a hard time writing a review without giving a bunch of it away. So I will keep it simple! Who knew about Condoleezza? What am I talking about? You will just have to read the book. What I can say, is this: Cradit has the incredible ability to expand the families of Deschanel and Sullivan's, without overburdening the readers. We are introduced to Kelley Landry, an extension of the Sullivan side of the families. He is a triplet ...more

I recieved a copy for an honest review.
This was a different take on a vampire story than most you read. No vampire stalking humans to drain their blood and whatever else. Kyle and his brothers come from a prestigious family of lawyers. When they were younger they had a secret vampire club, but now that they are adults Kyle's brothers don't believe anymore but Kyle still does though he won't admit it to his brothers. One day Kyle gets the chance to meet a vampire and it changes his life. Sarah do ...more
