Real Vampires Get Lucky

Gloriana St. Claire is back and trouble is waiting for her in the alley behind her store, Vintage Vamps in REAL VAMPIRES GET LUCKY, Gerry Bartlett's spicy and entertaining saga of vampires and other paranormal beings living large in Austin.

Lucky Carver was a couple of breaths from death when Glory and Valdez, her bodyguard dog, discover Lucky bleeding out. Unwilling to let the victim of an unprovoked vampire attack die, Glory changes Lucky into a vampire and ends up responsible for guiding the woman into the world of the undead.

Lucky, an enforcer for the family's loan shark business that caters to paranormals, enjoys her new undead life a bit too much for Glory's liking, and brings too much attention to the paranormal beings in Texas. When they discover that the attack on Lucky was a contract killing gone awry, it's up to Glory to discover the rogue living in their midst. This is in addition to Glory learning that her boyfriend Jeremy Blade may have a daughter with rival Mara, and deflecting the attention of recently turned rock singer Israel Caine.

Gerry Bartlett delivers another winner in REAL VAMPIRES GET LUCKY, the newest in the Glory St. Claire series. Old friends return and new enemies are made as Glory struggles to make ends meet and create time with sexy long-term boyfriend Blade. Ms. Bartlett's gift for humor, the bawdier the better, is evident throughout, and the different storylines are interwoven seamlessly to give the reader a thoroughly entertaining read. Fans rejoice -- this one's a keeper!

SUMMARY

When a female loan shark named Lucky is attacked and left for dead, vampire Glory St. Clair turns her into one of the undead to save her—but eternity would have been safer without her. Vamps prefer a low profile, and that's not Lucky's style. She prefers to flaunt her sexy rock-star ex- boyfriend and great shoes. Trouble is, her flamboyant behavior is not only drawing every vampire hunter within miles— it's bringing her would-be killer out of hiding, too.
