Road Trip, Baby!

Well, we were supposed to go camping this weekend to a local ghost town. I was looking forward to doing lots of research and spending some quality time with my Alphasmart in the great outdoors. Mother Nature had other plans.

Rain.

Hey, it isn't supposed to rain in Southern California, right? But raining it is. We didn't call the trip off until this morning, but Mr. Scott, being the genius that he is...had Plan B.

Las Vegas! I'm so excited.

It's one of my favorite destination spots. So much so, that my release this week, The Lady is a Vamp, is set in that glitzy, glamorous, romantic city.



A professional poker player takes the biggest gamble of his life - falling in love with a vampire.

Under the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas is a dark underworld of vampires. Their salvation lies in the hands of a most unlikely pair - a professional poker player and the vampire who loves him.

One year ago, Kylie McKenzie was just a casino poker dealer. However, after being bitten by a rogue vampire, she lost not only her life, but the love of her life. Now, one year later, the man she was engaged to is back. She is determined to stay away from him - but someone else is equally determined to use her to manipulate the outcome of the World Poker Tournament Championship.

Last year, Royce Whittier not only lost his fiancée, he also lost the championship. Determined to get back in the game, he is sidetracked into looking for the origin of a tarot card depicting a woman who looks amazingly like Kylie. In doing so, he stumbles upon the secret vampire society and the slayer who stalks them.

As for me, I'll be stalking an idea for my vampire book...tentatively titled Spelled to Death...

So, until next week!
