Book Description
When George meets Harry Amdis, he thinks he’s met the man of a thousand daydreams except that George has a secret. He’s a newly turned vampire and has no idea how it happened or how to deal with it. How could he be a blood-sucking fiend when he’s an almost vegetarian? He’s told Harry the truth, and Harry’s up and left him. But who can blame him? There’s more danger in store for George, though, when he learns who bit him and why. And how is he supposed to get through Christmas with his family without the love of his life? Harry Amdis loves George, but how can this crazy-hot guy be a vampire? And does he really believe he is one? Worse, Harry has a deadly secret of his own that goes back to his own nutty family. They can never be together. George has the kind of family Harry’s always envied. He wishes he could get over the fang part and love George for himself, his family, and his mom’s awesome fudge. But some things are more than dealbreakers…aren’t they?

Book Description
Having inflicted the smug homes of suburbia with witches and werewolves. Esther Friesner now unleashes the undead to tap a vein of blood and humor, and drain the suburbs dry of both. Vampires and the suburbs are a match made in heaven, or maybe Levittown. Remember Dracula? He didn't run into any real problems until he took his act on the road and traveled to the Big City. But in the suburbs, everyone is polite and respectful of their neighbors' right to privacy. And if your neighbors happen to have kids selling gift-wrap, magazine subscriptions, cookies, or other school fundraising ploys, and little Emily or Jason happen to come peddling their wares after sundown . . . Who says you have to stay in the city if you want good take-out meals delivered right to your door? There's no one quite like a vampire for saying, _All of you kids get off of my lawn!Ó and putting some teeth into it. The stories in these pages¾by Sarah A. Hoyt, K.D. Wentworth, Dave Freer and more, including Esther Friesner herself¾will convince the reader that vampires and suburbs go together like wine and cheese, gin and tonic, desperation and housewives, marriage and pre-nups.

Book Description
Fangsters, a novel Gangsters with bite. I should have known better than to sign a deal with a blood-sucking blackmailer. But what choice did I have? Alessandro, one of the most powerful vampires in all the realms, holds my deepest, darkest secret in the palm of his hand. Within fourteen days, I must start an academy for delinquent teenage vampires, or he’ll expose me. If my skeleton ever fell out of the closet, I would be ruined. My family would disown me, my friends would abandon me, and I would be left totally alone. I’ve never taught vampires, or delinquents, or teenagers for that matter, but I will risk everything to establish a school for the undead. On the plus side, I have a PhD in Education and am a talented witch capable of all sorts of sorcery. Getting my brooms in a row, I’ve already scribbled a few lessons on the seven undeadly sins. I am determined that within fourteen days, I will have an institution of enlightenment for the most shadowy creatures on earth. What could go wrong? Onyx, a drop-dead-gorgeous night stalker with an extensive knowledge of blood sorcery, has offered his assistance, but you know what they say about deals that appear too good to be true. Should I accept a sidekick with fangs or go it alone? Meanwhile, trouble is brewing in my small Pacific Northwest town called Mystic Keep. Someone is killing witches.While I expect many bumps in the night await me, I swear no bloody mess will deter me from my goal—to get the academy for naughty vampires functioning on time. Will I succeed, or will I be exposed? Or worse, will I be murdered? My name is Rebel Black, and this is my story. Fangsters, the novel, is the first book in Fangsters, an urban fantasy with bite series, set in the Mystic Keep world. A fast-paced mystery with a slow burn romance, it features powerful witches, stubborn warlocks, and sexy vampires, and can easily be read as a standalone.

Book Description
Composed of great stories by top Chicago authors, this anthology contains 21 short stories, each originally published in an internationally famous literary market. The themes of the stories cover everything Chicago -- from its history and politics to its social structure -- in a way that brings to life a vibrant and diverse city. The stories are set against backdrops as various as the local addresses of Lake Shore Drive, a city tenement basement, and an affluent suburb, as well as national locales such as Iowa and Oklahoma City and international locales such as the Middle East and Europe. But whatever the stories' settings, the writers have one thing in common: they all live and work in the Chicago area. With a foreword by Chicago's mayor, Richard M. Daley, this collection demonstrates the extraordinary literary talent of Chicago.
