LOVE BITES
Adrienne Barbeau

Reviewed by Heather Lobdell
Posted September 16, 2010

Mystery Paranormal

Hollywood horror legend Adrienne Barbeau once again topples the stage with her latest edition of The Vampyres of Hollywood. Barbeau's second book, LOVE BITES, features all the legendary creatures with twists and turns that keep the laughter rolling and the pages turning. With a cop dating a vampyre and the paparazzi turned werewolf, this book is sure to keep the reader longing for more.

Hollywood actress, director, and producer, Ovsanna Moore finds herself in the middle of scenes that should be in her movies...only this time they're real. Women are being killed, and Ovsanna seems to be right in the thick of it, once again. All Ovsanna wants is a normal night out with a normal guy. What she gets is werewolves attacking and her 'knight in shining armor' has to come to her rescue. Playing damsel in distress for Detective Peter King is bad enough, but being rescued by the guy you are dating is just flat out wrong. As a 450 year old vampyre, Ovsanna believes she should be able to take care of herself, her town, and her clan without any help from the humans.

Detective Peter King is your average everyday normal guy, but when your suspect turns out to be the good 'girl' and you find yourself taking a vampyre home for Christmas dinner, things just couldn't get any weirder. Peter finds out just how wrong he is when another woman turns up mangled, his 'girlfriend' gets attacked by the 'things that go bump in the night', and he's not quite sure who the monsters really are. Top it all off with the fact that Ovsanna seems to be right in the middle of the case once again.

SUMMARY

With her customary wit and dead-on satire, Barbeau skewers Hollywood and vamp lit alike, casting the paparazzi as werewolves and certain Hollywood โ€œmonstersโ€ as the genuine article Ovsanna Moore is a Hollywood siren, horror film legend, and cut throat producer. She also happens to be a 450-year-old vampyre. In the follow-up to the much acclaimed Vampyres of Hollywood, Adrienne Barbeau paints a wonderfully sly portrait of cinematic vampyres, as well as the nature of celebrity, and the entertainment industry. Her โ€œScream Queenโ€ credentials make her the only author who could combine such a fastpaced, edgy plot with tongue- in-cheek references to the inner workings and vanity of Hollywood. A whirlwind of action, Love Bites is a clever take on vampyres readers will never forget.
