Fangs for the Memories

Cleopatra Lutz, former Hollywood actress turned vampire has been hiding out since her maker died leaving her alone. Cleo, an actress at heart, is now living as Delores DeNight a late night TV host, pretending to be a Vampire. The real problem however is the fact she really does not known how to be a true Lady Nightwalker.

Michael Brown former companion to Vladimir, a Nightwalker himself, sees Cleo as a way to get the woman he has always loved, plus to be a companion once more. Michael’s real problem is that Cleo does not want him to be her companion -- or anything else for that matter.

The heroine, Cleo has had a rough 90 years, first turned into a Nightwalker against her will during the prime of her career, and then left alone when the man who made her is destroyed. Now some nasty people want to kill her again.

The hero Michael is sweet, sexy, smart, rich and a true Cleopatra Lutz fan. However when she refuses to acknowledge him as her companion, Michael’s possessive and extremely stubborn streak comes shining through. By taking matters and her body into his own hands, can he shows his love just exactly how much she needs him?

Cricket Sawyer has created a delightfully delicious tale of Vampires and their loves. Her characters are well developed and their passion explosive. The scenery is vivid from one place to another, one movie scene to the next. The secondary characters feel real without drawing you away from the hero and heroine. The plot moves smoothly, as well as ridiculously funny at times.

This reviewer enjoyed peaking into the authors mind where there are monsters that go bump in the night, only erotically this time.
