A Quick Bite

"That hot guy tied to Lissianna Argeneau's bed? He's not dessert andndash; he's the main course!"

Lynsay Sands is bringing her hilarious voice and popular vampire series to Avon and we've got a new star on the rise!

A haemophobic vampire?

You guessed it. And her mother wants nothing more than to cure this nasty fear of blood so her darling daughter can have a normal meal for once. What better way than to give her a darling doctor on a plateandndash;or tied to a bedandndash;andndash;for feeding? But instead of simply having a delicious snack, this vampire vixen decides the doctor is too tasty for just one bite, and before they know it he's got a hot (but coldandndash;blooded) woman on his hands who wants much more than to just sink her teeth into him...

Lynsay comes to us with an established track record. She may be new to Avon, but she brings with her an alreadyandndash;established series, the Argeneau vampire series, that has a strong steady fan base that's clamoring for the next installment.

Vampire comedy is hot and on the way up and with Lynsay Sands we have one of the pioneers of the miniandndash;genre, and the best of the best!

"Sexy blond Lissianna Argeneau takes center stage in Sands's disappointing new entry in her popular Argeneau series (Single White Vampire, etc.) about a Canadian vampire family. For Lissianna's 30th birthday, her mother brings her what she considers the perfect birthday present: a psychologist, Greg Hewitt, who can cure her fear of the sight of blood so she can feed off blood-bank bags like a civilized vampire rather than from random humans. The night doesn't go as planned when Lissianna takes a romantic liking to the good doctor. Worse, the clan has trouble controlling his 'strong mind' and erasing his memory of the family, putting their secret in jeopardy. Though the love scenes hit an erotic high note, the quick courtship between Lissianna and Greg is serviceable at best, and the first half of the thin plot moves like molasses as Lissianna explains... and explains... to Greg how the vampire race operates. In addition, lines like 'They were all looking just as blank as she felt' can make for a clunky read. Agent, Jenny Bent at Trident Media Group. (Nov.)"

The "USA Today" bestelling author's delectable vampire series continues. Lissianna Argeneu is a vampire who hates the sight of blood. Yet she feels a different kind of hunger for psychoanalyst Greg Hewitt. Original.

That hot guy tied to Lissianna Argeneau's bed? He's not dessert—he's the main course!

Lissianna has been spending her centuries pining for Mr. Right, not just a quick snack, and this sexy guy she finds in her bed looks like he might be a candidate. But there's another, more pressing issue: her tendency to faint at the sight of blood . . . an especially annoying quirk for a vampire. Of course it doesn't hurt that this man has a delicious-looking neck. What kind of cold-blooded vampire woman could resist a bite of that?

Dr. Gregory Hewitt recovers from the shock of waking up in a stranger's bedroom pretty quickly—once he sees a gorgeous woman about to treat him to a wild night of passion. But is it possible for the good doctor to find true love with a vampire vixen, or will he be just a good meal? That's a question Dr. Greg might be willing to sink his teeth into . . . if he can just get Lissianna to bite.

Lynsay Sands is the nationally bestselling author of the Argeneau vampire series as well as numerous historical novels and anthologies known for their humorous edge.
