Today we have another 1001 Dark Nights treat for you. Lara Adrian is the latest to share a new story in the multi-author romance series. She’s written a new Midnight Breed novella for it called Stroke of Midnight. The book came out last week, but if you haven’t picked up a copy yet (and you should!), we snagged an exclusive excerpt to convince you. EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT: STROKE OF MIDNIGHT Damn. Seraphina... 
I’m thrilled that we’re beginning to see more vampire paranormal romance novels back on the shelves. Earlier this week Rachel Van Dyken’s The Dark Ones released, and it promises blood, romance, and alpha males. All vital things for a good PNR, right? Well, we snagged an excerpt from the novel just for VBC readers to help you get a taste of Ethan and Genesis. EXCERPT FROM THE DARK ONES I still tasted her... 
Lea Nolan’s Hoodoo Apprentice trilogy should be on your TBR. She does YA paranormal right and there’s plenty of black magic temptations throughout the series. Today we’re revealing the cover for the third book Illusion, which releases on October 5. If you haven’t started the series, you can nab the first book Conjure at Amazon. Learn about Illusion, check out the new artwork and read an excerpt below.... ![Exclusive Excerpt from Rage/Killian [1001 Dark Nights]](http://vampirebookclub.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/RageKillian-200x200.jpg)
The 1001 Dark Nights novella series keeps getting better. Some of our favorite paranormal romance authors including Larissa Ione and Elisabeth Naughton have participated in the ongoing series, and we’re super excited about the double dose of sexy supernatural goodness that’s this week’s release of Rage/Killian by Alexandra Ivy and Laura Wright. It’s two novellas both from the Bayou Heat series and it’s... 
We’ve been fans of Chloe Neill’s books since the start of Vampire Book Club more than six years ago. Back then we fell for Merit and the Chicagoland Vampires series. With the release of The Veil today, we get to fall for a whole new world with plenty of New Orleans charm and another heroine we want to be friends with. Her name is Claire and she’s the main character of The Veil, the first in Neill’s new... 
We’re edging into the dog days of summer with sticky heat. Instead of cranking the air conditioning at VBC HQ, we thought we’d bring in werewolves and Lairds. Someone should invest in fans. Vivian Arend knows how to bring the sexy, and her second book in the Takihi Shifters series Laird Wolf is no exception. We snagged an exclusive excerpt from the novel for y’all, and we have two giveaways to better... 
As soon as we read the blurb for Abigail Baker’s The Reaper’s Kiss, we made grabby hands. Tattoos, reapers and scruffy dudes? Yes, please. The first book in her Deathmark series is on our list to check out as soon as it is available on August 25. We thought you might like to do the same. So we’re revealing the cover art, the blurb, and even an excerpt from the novel below. Let us know in the comments if... 
We are huge fangirls of Jennifer Estep’s Elemental Assassin series here at VBC. We can’t get enough of Gin Blanco—assassin, badass and lover of good barbecue. So, naturally, we’re pretty stoked about the release of Spider’s Trap, the thirteenth book in the series, at the end of the month. (Yes, you can expect a review.) We know you’re eager for more Gin & Co., too, so we snagged this exclusive excerpt... 
The 1001 Dark Nights series has delivered us some seriously delicious stories. We’re talking paranormal sexiness from Lara Adrian and Larissa Ione. We know it’s good. So we were really excited to see the latest in the multi-author collection was from Elisabeth Naughton. If you haven’t checked out her Eternal Guardian novels, you really should. However, if you’re new to the series, Ravaged could be an... 
From Chelsea/VBC: Magic and warriors are hitting all the right buttons with the VBC team lately. So I’m pleased to have Stacey Kennedy on the site today. Her second book in her Magic and Mayhem series Witches Be Burned releases on May 19, and it looks super good. We managed to snag an exclusive excerpt of the book just for you guys, and peek at the end of the post for a giveaway, too. Thank you so much...
