First Betsy Taylor loses her job, then she's killed in a car accident. But what really bites is that she can't seem to stay dead. And now her new friends have the ridiculous idea that Betsy is the prophesied vampire queen, and they want her help in overthrowing the most obnoxious power-hungry vampire in five centuries.
I'm really not sure this is a strong 3 but I certainly liked the book so it didnt deserve a 2. I started this series afer my current fix of Stephanie Plum and I love those books (but they only get a 3 too because cmon they arent literary gold). I'm not convinced these books are as great as SP but this one kept me interested enough I jumped right into the second one. I'm okay without the obligitory sex scene at the end of the book, sometimes less is more I didn't need quite so many details. I'm pressing forward because I'm really wanting to see Sinclair develop more of a personality than tall, dark, handsome, and brooding. I'm hoping he becomes a little more well rounded and loveable. Perhaps Betsy will not be SO self indulgent and get some more meat to her character. ( )
Ha sido una semana de lo más movidita para Betsy Taylor. Primero, pierde su trabajo. Luego, para colmo, muere en un accidente de coche. Pero lo que realmente le molesta (además de despertar en la morgue vestida con un traje color rosa chicle y zapatos baratos, cortesía de su madrastra), es que no logra permanecer muerta. Todas las noches se levanta con un antojo terrible de sangre. Y la dieta líquida no le sienta demasiado bien.
This book is a funnt vampire book so skip it if you're looking for a serious book. Wise cracking Betsy Taylor is mugged and bitten and left for dead. A month later she is hit by a car and killed and wakes in her coffin at the mortuary not knowing what happened. Betsy is always pissed at something and right now it's that she isn't dead. She is a vampire but none of the usual anti-vamp things bother her. She can walk in the sunlight, wear crosses, holy water has no effect and she only needs to feed ocasionally. The vampire chronicles foretell of the coming of the Queen of the Vampires. Besry turns out to be the Queen. Her consort is the hunky Eric Sinclair who Betsy has the hots for and despises at the same time. It was a slapstick look at vampires and there is a series of books this being the first but I think I'll stop here. ( )

This book is dedicated to Anthony Alongi, my editor, my partner, my bearded nemesis, and my friend. All praise to my darling husband.

Hampton & Son, realizing about a year too late that they had to slash costs, decided administrative layoffs were the way to go as opposed to, say, cutting the six figure salaries of senior management. The clerks and secretaries had been deemed expendable. But vengeance would be ours. Without us, those twits couldn't even send a fax, much less run the company. (chapter 1)
I love my cat. She's a pain in the ass, but she's dependable, and has never once told me to change my shirt because I look like a crack whore in periwinkle blue. Heck, the whole reason I was in this fix was, in part, because of Giselle, but I hadn't gotten rid of her, or even snacked on her. I was definitely a cat person.
Which is why it was unbelievably annoying that dogs now found me irresistible. Before I woke up in the funeral home, I had ignored dogs, and they had ignored me, and we'd gone about our separate business. No longer. (chapter 11)
