Book Description:
What -- did you think all vamps were pale, thin and brooding?

Don't I wish.

Me, I just happened to be bloating when a sexy Scotsman sank his teeth into me, so here I am, eternally "full-figured." On the plus side, Glory St. Claire can rock a corset like nobody's business. Oh, and as for Angus Jeremiah Campbell III, aka Jeremy Blade? We've been on and off again for centuries, currently off. After a couple hundred years we sure know how to press each other's hot buttons -- in good ways and bad.

The whole never-aging thing means that a girl's gotta keep moving, and I'm headed for Austin and a new business venture: Vintage Vamp's Emporium. After all, I love cute clothes, and I am an antique. Only problem is, there's a billionaire techno-freak vampire hunter on the loose. Blade's in total he-vampire mode, and orders me to move in so he can "protect" me. But I'm sick of the not-so-little woman thing. It's time for this vamp to explore her own powers...

Ths book was cute, and i will proabbly read the next one in the series. But is not one for my keeper shelf. REaders of Betsy the Vampire Queen will probably want to give this one a try.

Modern day vampire tale. I was a bit disappointed, as I thought it would be better. It started slow but I kept reading as it is set in Austin TX my hometown, it did get better in the middle, lagged once again and really didnt finish with a bang. It was somewhat predictable. I will read the next one, but wont be running out to buy it new.

Cute, light, funny vampire story. Puts me in the mind of the Queen Betsy series. Glory is a good character, funny, sassy and a vamp. Nice to see a fuller figure lady getting some hot men!! :)

It sounded like a good book but i read up to 50 or more pages and I couldnt get into it.

I didn't make it past the first page. It wasn't bad, it just seemed like yet another cutesy book and I can only take so many of those. But if you like that type, what I would call the blond vampire book (like MaryJanice Davidson), then you'll probably enjoy this.

If you like the Betsy series you'll like this one. It was to cutesy for me. I don't like the Betsy series either so I should have known better than to read this one.

Too much like Mary Janice Davidson's Undead series which I also didn't like. Too childish...reminds me of a bunch of teenage girls yakking it up. I found it very irritating. However, if you enjoy MJD's series, you will definitely like it.

Though rather predictible, this book was very cute. Gloria is a slightly old fashioned woman teaching herself how to be a modern one. The dialogue is snappy and amusing, the characters are entertaining..and the ending leaves you guessing! I enjoyed it, and any fan of vampires, romance and comedy will enjoy it too.

Clumsy vamp turned by love of her life Scottish hunk. Shapeshifter (dog) body guard, crazy vamp roommate, and lots of laughs. I enjoyed the book and have already read the next one. I'm on #3 and not disappointed yet.

This was a fun read. It's along the lines of Mary Janice Davidson and Kimberly Raye. I def enjoyed it and am planning on reading the rest of the series.

One of my favorite series. I highly recommend this book and the rest of the series too!!

This book was an okay read. It would have been nice to see a bit more between Glory and Jerry or Glory and Damien. Glory and anyone actually.

I don't plan on reading any more of the series.
