by: Stephen King Amazon.com's Price: $7.99 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description As an enormous fan of King, this book was warmly welcolmed in my arms. I wasn't dissapointed. As always, when it comes to King, I was sold. There's also a particular reason why I welcomed this book so much: In various books about King, I learned about many of those early and hard to find King stories, all the uncollected ones, and the rare ones. I was a bit sad about realizing that maybe I would never ever own these oddities. Then, finally, a new collection of King-stories showed up, mostly containing ...

| 22. Dead Until Dark (Southern Vampire Mysteries) | |
|
by: Charlaine Harris Amazon.com's Price: $5.99 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description This is a cute little story, albeit one with an edge. I adored it, and thought the love scenes were among the sweetest and sexiest that I have ever read. It grabbed my attention because while the premise is not necessarily an original one, the way it's written is fresh and different. Sookie is a blond waitress who lives in rural Louisiana, is embarrassed about being able to read minds, and falls in love with a vampire named Bill. Bill is trying to live as a normal person, and even goes so far as to give ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

| 23. Face the Fire (Three Sisters Island Trilogy) | |
|
by: Nora Roberts Amazon.com's Price: $7.99 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I've been a fan of Nora Roberts for a long time. As I've stated before, the first romance books that she wrote many years ago, I thought were beautiful and well-written. A writer develops a certain type style of their very own. Roberts has done just that. Unfortunately, some of the latest books that have been published with this author's name on them, just didn't hold water that she even wrote those books. They lacked her "certain" style, which is a wonderful mark when she writes. HOWEVER, this book had Nora's ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

| 24. American Gods | |

by: Neil Gaiman Amazon.com's Price: $7.99 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I have a few levels of books... at the bottom there's the bad books, the ones you're forced to read or you start but which end up being so boring you fall asleep. Then there's mediocre books, which are okay, but more along the 'read once and put on the shelf' category. The next level is great books, which you'll read more than once, and will be rated among your favorites. Then there's 'novel heroin.' These are the books you can't put down, that you finish in one sitting, no matter how long the novel, the ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

| 25. Night Pleasures (Dark-Hunters) | |
|
by: Sherrilyn Kenyon Amazon.com's Price: $6.50 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description Sherrilyn Kenyon gets better and better with this first novel in her Dark-Hunter series. 'Night Pleasures' is a great read, full of the spirited characters that have come to be one of Ms. Kenyon's trademarks. She mixes Greek mythology, vampires, and a magickally eccentric family that makes the gals on 'Charmed' look like The Waltons. Kyrian of Thrace is every woman's wet dream, but Ms. Kenyon infuses him with so much humanity that he doesn't come off as being a typical cardboard romantic hero. I'd have ...

|
by: Jaid Black Amazon.com's Price: $5.99 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I loved Jaid Black's The Possession and couldn't wait to pick up another one of her smoldering books. I haven't been able to get copies of the books she wrote for Ellora's Cave, so I settled for her first mass market release. One Dark Night kept me turning the pages from beginning to end. It's full of the erotic scenes that I adored in The Possession. And this novel has a compelling story and memorable characters to boot. Dr. Nikki Adenike wants to make her submissive fantasies come true. So she sets out to search ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

| 27. Blackwood Farm (Rice, Anne, Vampire Chronicles.) | |
|
by: ANNE RICE Amazon.com's Price: $7.99 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I'm relatively new to Anne Rice, having only read "Interview" to date, but must say that I was pleasantly surprised by Blackwood Farm. I think that for the most part, from the time that Quinn begins to recount his story to Lestat until the point where he becomes a vampire, the story is exceptionally well done. I really wasn't thrilled so much with the beginning and end of the book, and am not even sure that the story wouldn't have been better on its own, somehow without Lestat in the story whatsoever, but it was still ...

| 28. Sex and the Single Vampire | |
|
by: Katie Macalister Amazon.com's Price: $6.99 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I first stumbled across Katie Macalister's historical novels and fell in love with her unique approach to the genre. Her humor and three dimensional characters make her work stand out from the pack of regency romances and rightfully so. Later, I found her contemporaries and saw that the same sense of humor and irreverence existed. Sex and the Single Vampire is, lucky to say, as good as her other books. The banter and sexual tension between Christian, the old school vampire who hates independent women and Allie, ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

by: Katie Macalister Amazon.com's Price: $6.99 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description If you're a fan of vampire romantic fiction, you'll enjoy this one. The basic premise is that our heroine, Joy, is accompanying her friend Roxy on a trip to the Czech Republic to try to visit a reclusive author of romantic vampire fiction and to explore whether or not vampires do exist. Joy is a disbeliever but she doesn't want Roxy to do this on her own, so she agrees to go along. Naturally, Joy is the one the vampire takes an interest in. In her acknowledgements Ms. MacAlister thanks Christine Feehan, so it's not surprising that the reclusive ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

| 30. Club Dead (Southern Vampire Mysteries) | |
|
by: Charlaine Harris Amazon.com's Price: $6.50 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description This is the third book in the Southern Vampire series. Although you don't need to read the other two to know what is going on, I have to say it is probably not my favorite. Main character, Sookie Stackhouse is a waitress in a bar with a "disability" - she can read minds. Which instead of making her some sort of comic book hero, is really a problem for her. Ms. Harris writes about the south, with authority, her characters are interesting and funny. She tells a good story. This is not a heavy duty vampire story dripping with gothic ...
