Paranormal | Romance Paranormal

Brittany Baldizzi is a dentist in Las Vegas. She's also half vampire. She had an uncontrolled passionate encounter a few weeks ago and now she finds herself pregnant. By a vampire. And not just any vampire. The father is Corbin Atelier, a French vampire from the days of the French Revolution. Their baby will only be a quarter human, but that's enough to make it a "daywalker," who doesn't need blood to survive. And there's a group of vampires who will do almost anything to get Brittany and her baby, because the baby can be used to create a new race of beings. Having control of that possibility would mean power -- lots of power.

BLED DRY is a great continuation of Ms. McCarthy's Vegas Vampire series. Brittany is feisty, yet vulnerable. She's loving, yet has an acerbic wit. Corbin is a very lovable mix of modern-day research scientist and 18th century French aristocrat. They're a great couple together, as unlikely as it seems, and they love each other. What more could you ask for? Great story, fabulous characters and a really cool setting. Pick up the entire Vegas Vampire trilogy by Ms. McCarthy, HIGH STAKES, BIT THE JACKPOT and BLED DRY. You'll like it. You'll really like it.

SUMMARY

Hooking up with a vampire has its risks-but getting pregnant usually isn't one of them. Tell that to Brittany Baldizzi, who finds herself in the family way with no father in sight. After their one night of passion, vampire Corbin Jean Michel disappeared off the face of the earth-or at least off the Vegas strip.

Corbin is a vampire with a cause, secretly trying to find a cure for his condition. But when he finds out Brittany is pregnant with his child, Corbin can't keep his paternal instincts from trumping his bloodsucking ones. Even when showing his hand could cost him the woman he can't help but love.
