Today is day 9 of the Avon Affair book review and blog tour. I thought we could talk about a favorite author of mine, Kerrelyn Sparks. I love all her books but my favorite one of her's has to be, Be Still My Vampire Heart. When a beautiful mortal starts slaying vampires in Central Park, the Vamps call on their most powerful warrior to stop her—the general of the Vamp Army, Angus MacKay! The war is on, but will it end in their destruction…or in total surrender to a passion for the ages? Chapter One, Scene 2 Emma Wallace stomped her feet silently in the grass. The chilly air felt good as long as she was walking, but whenever she crouched behind a tree for very long, her legs grew stiff. This part of Central Park was dead, even too dead for the Undead. Time to move on. She...

The month long Avon Addict Blog Hop continues at this link. As part of this blog hop, I've chatted about Avon's historical romance at this link and Avon's contemporary romance at this link. Avon also offers chilling paranormals .... but I go for the two Avon authors with biting humor. In May 2007, Kathryn Falk invited me to NYC for Stars on Ice. Kathryn is the founder of RT Book Reviews and SOS America, Inc. I took the train from Baltimore and stayed overnight in her Brooklyn Heights carriage house (the house is a blog post for the future). The guest room, of course, was stocked with romance books. One book caught my attention - Lynsay Sands' SINGLE WHITE VAMPIRE, Book 3 in the Argeneau Series: A romance you can sink your teeth into. SWM - "Lucern." Successful biographer of family, books recently categorized as...
