Publisher Comments:

He Always Knew She Was Exactly His Type — B Positive

Gia Felice has a Rolodex full of vampires, werewolves, witches, and aliens — not to mention the livestock suppliers, undead-friendly hotels, and sleazy bars that cater to her clients' more carnal needs. Sometimes being the premier book publicist to the underworld can suck — literally. Especially if you're human. Especially if you've got the hots for irresistible Johnny and his sly half smile that shows just a little fang.

Her best friend, Lola, a werewolf, can't talk any sense into her, and now Gia's agreed to help Belladonna Nightshade, a New York Times bestselling vampire author, find the supernatural killing machine who changed Bella centuries ago...if he doesn't find Gia first. Yesterday, Gia's biggest problem was how to get an alien with a metal skeleton through airport security. Today she's got a bloodthirsty boyfriend dying to get into her pants, and an evil, centuries-old vampire on the hunt for her. Who knew publicity was such a deadly business?

Review:

"Book publicist Salvatore skewers the publishing industry and recent trends in vampire fiction in this humorous debut. As if corralling supernatural-fiction authors and their overenthusiastic fans wasn't hard enough, publicist Gia Felice must keep secret that her authors are the real deal: vampires, werewolves and occasionally aliens. Her determination to remain mortal is challenged by Johnny, a vampire whose flirting is getting increasingly intense. While Gia and Johnny continue their macabre mating dance, she is enlisted by author Bella to track down Daniel, the vampire who changed her and who she suspects of murdering her husband. Salvatore demonstrates a thorough knowledge of New York City, the publishing world and the best ways to blend paranormal romance and chick lit. While Daniel never exudes any real menace, the relationship between Gia and Johnny is always enjoyable, making for a fun, fast-paced read."
