Tuesday Teaser - Sex, Lies, and Vampires by Katie MacAlister


After falling in love with Katie MacAlister’s writing style and characters I HAD to have more. So… the next time I took Mom to the book store, I found another. This book was originally published in 2005.

Sex, Lies, And Vampires

 I love the quirky heroine in this story, the 3rd book in The Dark Ones series. (Yep… still haven’t picked up the 1st yet.) This book was so fun to read, I couldn’t put it down. Perfect with a glass of red wine, a comfy blanket and cozy chair on a cold winter day.



Nell is a historian...and a charmer. When she inadvertently becomes involved with the supernatural world, Nell meets a Dark One (vampire) known as The Betrayer. Despite the scary title, The Betrayer (actually named Adrian) is incredibly sexy, and the chemistry between them becomes overwhelming. There is a lot of sexual tension and loads of romance. He tries to show his big bad self that all should fear, and she responds by calling him a fluffy pet name like sugarpants. Throw in some re-animated mummies, demons, kidnappings, and misunderstandings and you have the basic plotline of Sex, Lies and Vampires.

Tuesday Teaser - Sex and the Single Vampire by Katie MacAlister

Every other Tuesday I take my mom to her favorite shop… Maxie’s Used Books. Mom fills her basket quicker than you’d think an 86 year old woman could do and leaves little time for me to explore the vast amount of books. However, I did sneak one into Mom’s pile.

Sex and the Single Vampire

This is the second book in Katie MacAlister’s THE DARK ONES series. (I haven’t picked up the 1st book, A Girl’s Guide to Vampires, yet.)

Keeping in mind I enjoy dark romantic tales of vamps, shifters and angels by the likes of Sherrilyn Kenyon, Sandra Hill, J.R.Ward, and Lynsay Sands; but I was blown over with the humor of MacAlister’s heroine.  OMG!  I have never laughed so hard while reading a vamp romance!  My kids thought I’d lost my marbles the way I cackled over the book.  LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!

Book Description

It's not easy finding love when you're nine hundred years old . . . And undead

Romance novelist Christian Dante is sexy and arrogant, a true alpha male. He's also a Dark One (aka vampire), doomed to spend eternity cruising the singles scene in search of the one woman who can redeem his soul. But finally he's found the love that Fate has chosen for him. Too bad she sees dead people and likes to play with demons.

Allie Telford is a Summoner—and she needs to rustle up a ghost pretty darn quick or her paranormal career will be over. Luckily, she's just stumbled upon a naked and unquestionably hot specter in a haunted hotel . . . who looks disturbingly like the tall, dark, handsome fantasy man who's been coming to Allie in her dreams. But it seems he's no phantom after all—he's a real flesh-and-blood- fed immortal who's determined to make Allie his lover for forever . . . or longer.

Which may not be a totally bad thing . . .
