Sucker Bet: A Tale of Vegas Vampires

Overview

The national bestselling author of Bled Dry returns to vampire-filled Las Vegas!

A night of indulgence can feel like an eternity. Gwenna Carrick has a history-900 years of it. As the vampiress ex-wife of the notorious vampire Roberto Donatelli, she must keep a low profile. Not easy when you're bathed in the neon glow of Las Vegas-especially when there's a whole online group of vampire slayers bent on dealing you your last hand.

A wild night with a stranger was not in the cards for Gwenna. But that's what happened when she met the ruggedly handsome detective Nate Thomas. Their passion made her feel alive again. But when Donatelli catches wind of the tryst, he's determined to clean house, with Nate the first on his to-off list. Gwenna knows she hit the jackpot with Nate and won't let anyone stand in the way. But both soon realize they have far more enemies than Donatelli- both on the strip and underground.

Editorial Reviews

The fourth installment of McCarthy's toothsome Vegas Vampire series (following Bled Dry) finds sexy Gwenna Carrick, a 900-year-old vampire, living at the casino owned by her brother, Ethan Carrick, the current president of the Vampire Nation. She meets Metro police detective Nate Thomas at a crime scene and offers her help in cracking a case involving an Internet vampire slayers group. Nate is grieving over the death of his sister, and Gwenna has been divorced from Vampire Nation vice president Roberto Donatelli for 300 celibate years. Sparks flare into true love very quickly-inflaming Gwenna's jealous ex-husband, who quickly orders a hit on Nate. Worse challenges await the lovers, as McCarthy delivers her latest with fang-in-cheek flair. (Jan.) Copyright 2007 Reed Business Information. -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY.

Author Information

Bio of Erin McCarthy

I first decided to be a writer at six years old when my first grade teacher told me the story I wrote was wonderful. It was a paranormal, describing the very interesting day in the life of a witch. In the years since, I've tried on different careers, but always came back to writing, settling on romance. While my wonderful husband and two beautiful kids are my first priority, I'm thrilled to be able to write full time. My debut book, BAD BOYS ONLINE, will be a September 2003 release and features three sexy stories. In April of 2004 my first single title from Kensington Brava, SMART MOUTH, will hit the shelves, followed by a couple of anthologies. It's going to be a busy and exciting year. I hope you enjoy reading my books as much as I enjoy writing them!
