Housewife Blues and Chihuahua Stories

Have you ever heard the old saying that all vampire books are predictable and boring? That there is nothing new and different in the genre that would cause a reader to stand up and cheer when they were done with the story.... I say different, not only are the books written by Amanda Ashley not boring or for the most part predictable but they will make you smile and even cheer for the books characters at stories end!Right off the bat let me say that the main female character of Megan DeLacey is going to make you peeved in the beginning of the book, at some point she does finally grow on the reader...Master Vampire hottie main male character Rhys Costain however you will fall in "lust" with immediately!The two meet when Rhys comes into the high end clothing store where Megan works the night shift... Night after night he comes back and buys something each time so he has the chance to interact with the beautiful young human female, the first female to entice Rhys in centuries!Megan is of course flattered and intrigued by what she perceives to be a younger man with money to burn showing interest in her!Speed up a little and the two have gone beyond mere flirtation and engaged in an intimate relationship during the course of which Rhys is grievously injured and Megan is confronted with the awful fact that he is really a Vampire not a human at all....Add the kicker in that her roommate and best friend tells her that she is dying whereupon Megan decides to have Rhys turn her friend into a Vampire to save her from permanent human death... Why do we all know that this is a bad idea?
