I’m Marlene Perez and I’m here to give you a little hint of my new book, I’M WITH THE BANNED, the second book in my teen vampire trilogy with Entangled Teen. I love a good title challenge!
I is for intense. Tansy and Vaughn have always been friends, but there’s some intense relationship stuff Tansy has to figure out when Vaughn disappears for a month.
M is for Mariotti. Tansy’s Granny Mariotti is a librarian-witch you don’t want to mess with. She’ll find you the perfect book and put a spell on you.
*
W is for werewolves. Tansy and her friends have to figure out who is killing werewolves before a vampire-werewolf war breaks out.
I is for intimidating.
T is for Tansy. The main character in I’m with the Banned is Tansy, a high school senior and the newly crowned queen of the vampires. She’s got a lot on her plate: a new boyfriend, a new title, and a new enemy. Or maybe it’s an old enemy.
H is for Hecate, Tansy’s new and unusual pet. Hecate smells like burned marshmallows and brimstone.
*
T is for Travis, the lead singer of The Drainers and the vampire everyone wants or wants to stake.
H is for heavy, as in heavy is the head that wears the crown.
E is for evil, as in an evil band of vampires who change their look, name, and sound, but are the same old evil at heart.
*
B is for the Old Crones Book Club; Tansy’s granny’s book club/coven.
A is for attractive. Vaughn’s new friends are attractive, Tansy knows, but she suspects at least a few of them howl at the moon.
N is for night because vampires do their worst when the sun has set.
N is for never because Tansy will never give up on her best friend Skyler.
E is for the Executioner, also known as Vanessa Mariotti, also known as Tansy’s very estranged mother.
D is for drumstick, Tansy’s weapon of choice
Afterlife #2
I never wanted to be a vampire queen.
But on the bright (if not sunny) side of the debacle, I’ve got a super-hot new boyfriend. And he just might be the perfect guy.
Well, if the perfect guy ghosts you for a month and then comes back to school with a new look, a pack of friends, and a secret. But we have bigger problems.
The Drainers are back. They’re singing a different song, but have they really changed?
Even worse, werewolves’ hearts are being ripped from their bodies—which is putting the people I love in danger. I need to figure out who is behind the murders before there’s an all-out vampire werewolf war.
No one is going to mess with my friends, even the ones who like to get wild and howl at the moon.
Sometimes, all a girl can do is grab her tiara and start kicking some supernatural ass...
