"Lucern's little sister finally gets her story"
Lynsay is back with another long-awaited Argeneau tale, and
new sexy updated cover instead of the cartoon ones. New
Publisher, the vamps are no longer with Dorchester. They're
now put out by Avon (though Dorchester will continue to do
her Historicals). Originally, this was the very first
Argeneau tale in the series, not Single White Vampire
(Lucern's tale). So it's great to finally get Lucern's
little sister's story. As followers of the series know, the
Argeneau vamps are the modern day, intelligent sort, who
know feasting in the wild can get "blood" with all sorts of
problems. In order to skip all this rather mundane
ugliness, they've invested in blood banks that see them
supplied with a full range of "flavors" and blood that is
safe! Only, Lissianna really has trouble with this popping
her fangs into a blood bag and having a quick munchie. So Mama Argeneau sets out to give Lissianna the perfect
present - one sexy male tied up and waiting. Well,
Lissianna wants Mr. Right, not just Mr. Available. She's
tired of her vamp immortal life, and would like someone to
share it with. Lissianna has other problems, such as her
fainting at the sight of blood, an annoying trait for a
vampire. For a Birthday gift, Mama has gone out and fetched
Dr. Gregory Hewitt, used mind control to get him to tuck
himself up in the trunk of her car, and now has him tied up
nekkid on Lissianna's bed. Wouldst that all mums were so
obliging on birthdays! Greg was planning a much-needed vacation. The last he
recalls is leaving the office and planning on getting away.
Instead, he wakes up in a stranger's bedroom. Well, he's
male - this cannot be all bad. Okay, she's a vampire
romance may be a bit difficult to work out, but to quote
Joey Brown in Some Like it Home, "nobody's perfect." A great tale which you can sink your fangs into! Expect
Vincent Argeneau sometime after the first of the year.
Keep 'em coming, Lynsay! Posted October 28, 2005

One taste is never enough
That hot guy tied to Lissianna Argeneau's bed? He's not dessert -- he's the main course! Lissianna has been spending her centuries pining for Mr. Right, not just a quick snack, and this sexy guy she finds in her bed looks like he might be a candidate. But there's another, more pressing issue: her tendency to faint at the sight of blood ... an especially annoying quirk for a vampire. Of course it doesn't hurt that this man has a delicious-looking neck. What kind of cold-blooded vampire woman could resist a bite of that? Dr. Gregory Hewitt recovers from the shock of waking up in a stranger's bedroom pretty quickly -- once he sees a gorgeous woman about to treat him to a wild night of passion. But is it possible for the good doctor to find true love with a vampire vixen, or will he be just a good meal? That's a question Dr. Greg might be willing to sink his teeth into ... if he can just get Lissianna to bite.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
