I’ve been enjoying all the new takes on vampires and shifters we’re seeing released as of late. There are so many of us who still love paranormal romance, and it’s a delight to see authors bringing us new stories and twists on tropes. Plus, I just really like a good vampire or werewolf. Y’all know this. Well, Kaylie Newell’s The Moonshadow’s Daughter falls into that category. The book released this week... 
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... 
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... 
Note from VBC/Chelsea: Today we’re turning over the blog to Tom Doyle, the author of The Left-Hand Way, which you can snag at Amazon or read to the end of the post for a chance to win a copy. While there aren’t any vampires in his novel, the myth and idea of them permeates the book. Well, I’ll let Tom explain… On the surface, The Left-Hand Way (and my American Craft series generally) has no vampires, or... ![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 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... 
From Chelsea/ VBC: We know you love sexy shifters. Today we’re pleased to turn the blog over to author Sharon Ashwood. She writes some great shifter romance. She’s going to give you the skinny on her upcoming release Possessed by a Wolf (yes, please). The novel releases on Friday, and you can pre-order here. We also have an awesome signed book giveaway at the end of the post. Let’s turn it over to Sharon...
