I Was Up Till 3 Tuesday Reading This
Beneath the glitter of dazzling 19th-century London Society lurks a bloodthirsty evil....
Vampires have always lived among them, quietly attacking unsuspecting debutantes and dandified lords as well as hackney drivers and Bond Street milliners. If not for the vampire slayers of the Gardella family, these immortal creatures would have long taken over the world.
In every generation, a Gardella is called to accept the family legacy, and this time, Victoria Gardella Grantworth is chosen, on the eve of her debut, to carry the stake.
But as she moves between the crush of ballrooms and dangerous, moonlit streets, Victoria's heart is torn between London's most eligible bachelor, the Marquess of Rockley, and her enigmatic ally, Sebastian Vioget.
And when she comes face to face with the most powerful vampire in history, Victoria must ultimately make the choice between duty and love.
What Others Are Saying...
"Sophisticated, sexy, surprising! With its vampire lore and Regency graces, this book grabs you and holds you tight till the very last page!"
--J R Ward, NYT best-selling author of Lover Awakened
"A promising, enthusiastic beginning to a new paranormal historical series, Gleason's major label debut follows the adventures of a conflicted young vampire hunter in Regency England...Gleason quickly establishes an alluring world all her own. Her Buffyesque lead (Gleason has acknowledged the inspiration) is similarly afflicted, but the change of setting makes an intriguing, witty and addictive twist."
--Publishers Weekly

Vampire Romances are on the increase. I envy romance writers because I've always had a difficult time writing love scenes in my short stories.
I just got my copy of this in the mail on Thursday and am dying to read it. BUT I have some other things (ms's of my crit partners) to read first.
It's killing me to wait.
That's on my tbr list :)
I read this the night before last. Loved it!!! And, yeah, it kept me up way late, too. :)
HOLY CRAP, I just saw this, Mary! Thanks so much for posting. I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!!
JR, yep, there are a lot of vampire romances, but this one doesn't have a vampire in the love story. The heroine is definitely out to dust them all! And I hear you - love scenes are the hardest to write!
Marianne and Bonnie, it's worth the wait!
Tori, it was sure fast paced, wasn't it? No way I could put it down!
Colleen, ;)
