5 Questions with Lynsay Sands (and a Giveaway!)

5 Questions with Lynsay Sands (and a Giveaway!) I hope everyone had a chance to read Amy’s review of About A Vampire. It’s the 22nd book in Lynsay Sands Argeneau series, and somehow Lynsay has kept surprising us this long. Better yet: About A Vampire works without having read the earlier books. Amy enjoyed the book and was surprised how what she thought would be a “never going to work” plot point totally worked. That kind of experience inspired more...

Nina Croft Loves Vampires. Here’s Why.

Nina Croft Loves Vampires. Here’s Why. Note from Chelsea/VBC: Vampire Book Club is pretty big on the fanged folk. We do have the word vampire in our name, after all. So we get extra excited when authors not only write about vampires, but love them the same way we do. Nina Croft loves vampires like we love vampires. Bonus: She writes some awesome ones in her Dark Desires series. The latest book Blood and Metal is out now, and we snagged her to...
