Yeah, I ‘survived’ something horrific and still managed to graduate college, but it did me little good. Here I am three years later with no life plan, no money and no goals, moving to a big city to live with my best friend in hopes of putting my self-destructive behavior behind me and getting my life back on track.Stacy and I met in college. She’s the quintessential good-time girl, which means she just barely has her crap together herself. If I manage to survive living with her without getting arrested or seriously embarrassing myself, then I’ll consider that a step in the right direction.No steps in any direction have even been made before Ian enters the picture, throwing me even further off course with all his sexy charm and annoying persistence. I’ve never had a guy so incapable of taking a hint. I don’t care if he’s Stacy’s best friend and one of the city’s most eligible bachelors. Doesn’t make a difference to me that he’s a walking contradiction; his gorgeous face and unrelenting kindness won’t do him any good when it comes to me.Even if I wanted Ian - which I don’t - I’m nowhere near ready for a serious relationship, and I swore off casual sex when I moved in with Stacy. So no matter how deliciously tempting he is, I’m not going to give in to Ian.Really I’m not.Due to the use of strong language and explicit adult situations, it is recommended readers be 18 or older before reading this book.

     *** A thirst like I’ve never before experienced wakes me from a deep sleep full of vaguely haunting dreams. When I peel my eyes open enough to take stock of where I am, I realize three things at once: I’m in a bed not my own, there is a stranger’s arm draped around me, and… we are both naked. Oh, and there's a brand new wedding ring on my left index finger. This is how my day starts. In a Las Vegas hotel room, married to a stranger I don't remember meeting. So cliche, right? What's worse is that I'm a highly respected librarian in Las Vegas, not some drunken tourist. That would all be bad enough... until I find out the worst part. I've been turned into a vampire, and some other really evil vampires want me dead. I guess the honeymoon will have to wait. If we even stay married. First, though, we have to stay alive. *** Read all the books in the Vampire Girl Universe Vampire Girl Vampire Girl 2: Midnight Star Vampire Girl 3: Silver Flame Vampire Girl 4: Moonlight Prince Vampire Girl 5: First Hunter Vampire Girl 6: Unseen Lord Vampire Girl: Copper Snare Vampire Librarian Vampire Girl: Crimson Cocktail Vampire Girl: Christmas Cognac Of Dreams and Dragons: A standalone fantasy

    Thank you Hephaestus, God of the Forge, for this beautiful masterpiece! That was only a little sarcastic because he was hot as hell.In fact, the one thing that did unphase me was that Zeus also wanted a piece of me.

Physics, equal exchange, but making something out of nothing? That’s where magic ends and godly manipulation begins.That is where I draw the line.Noop, I am done. I’m going to bed and dealing with this later. I don’t care if all these men were beating down my door to woo me into their arms, and beds, what I needed right now was a glass of soda and a hot bath.
