Book Description:
Being royally undead isn't all it's cracked up to be--there are still bills to be paid. Luckily, new Queen of the Vampires Betsy Taylor lands her dream job selling designer shoes at Macy's.

But when a string of vampire murders hits St. Paul, Betsy must enlist the help of the one vamp who makes her blood boil: the oh-so-sexy Sinclair. Now, she's really treading on dangerous ground--high heels and all.

Hilarious! This is the second in the Undead series and I found it much funnier than the first (if that's even possible!!). Betsy is trying to balance her new undead life, solve a mystery, manage her new job and Sinclair. Good fun!

From Booklist: "Queen Elizabeth I, aka Betsy Taylor, is adjusting to life after death as a vampire, but she still needs a job. To satisfy her lust for sexy shoes, she lands one in Macy's, but one night she is attacked by zit-remedy-scented slayers who are targeting female vampires. While trying to find out who is behind the plot, she befriends an adolescent gang called the Blade Warriors and the kindly priest who leads them. Betsy's unwanted consort, sexy Eric Sinclair, king of the vampires, doesn't know how to deal with a vampire queen who sneezes at holy water and wears a cross around her neck, and a charming subplot involving a mysterious five-year-old girl in saddle shoes adds poignancy to this wickedly clever and amusing romp. Davidson's witty dialogue, fast pacing, smart plotting, laugh-out-loud humor, and sexy relationships make this a joy to read. And Betsy's second adventure...will have readers begging for more."

2nd book in series. Can't wait to read the other ones. I did see somewhere, where there are at least 8 books in this series. Can't wait to read them all. I do have #3 in route to me and then have #4 here too. I will repost them for other members once I read them. They are a great, fun read.

A fun continuation in the Queen Besty series. It has the perfect balance of silliness and steaminess.

I'm really enjoying her novels. They are a perfect blend of chick-lit and a little fantasy thrown in.

Once again another excellent Queen Besty book by Mary Janice Davidson. She is one of my favorite authors and the "Undead" books are one of my favorite series. Make sure to read this whole series!!

Second book in the Queen Betsy series. I actually think this is better than the first book. The story moves fast and is very funny.
