Dracula & Beauty and the Beast, meet Pride and Prejudice in THE VAMPIRE DEBT, a new adult, gothic fantasy paranormal, slow burn, romance. His kiss could mean her undoing. Every year the vampire court visits human cities for the Claiming. And any human claimed will live a half-life as a food source to one of those demon-cursed monsters.

Now, her father’s debts will cost Clara her life. To settle her father’s debts, she finds herself under the guardianship of the unearthly handsome Lord, Alaric Devereaux. Not only is he a vampire—he knows what she did, and he’s determined to make her pay for the crime. She refuses to sit idly by and wait for death, provoking Alaric at every turn… Until he offers her a deal: Use his dagger to draw a single drop of his blood and she will win her freedom. But for every failed attempt, she must pay with a kiss. His kisses are more deadly than a blade’s edge. Each one threatens to change everything she’s ever believed while slowly ensnaring her heart.

When my brother gets into some serious trouble with the Vampire Clan of Baltimore, there's only one thing I can do to save his ass. I decide to offer myself up as a blood tribute, infiltrate their underground palace, and find a way to get him out. But playing the part of a simpering blood bag is harder than I expected, especially when my first impulse is to put a stake through the heart of every vamp I meet. To make matters worse, I've somehow caught the eye of three dangerous vampire men: Bastian, an ancient prince with features as cold as ice and eyes that burn like fire. Rome, a darkly sexy rebel who just returned from a hundred-year banishment. And Connor, a newly turned vampire whose lopsided grin is so devastatingly human that I almost forget he's the enemy. Even though I want to hate them all, they keep getting under my skin in ways I can't explain. But if I let myself lose focus for even a second, it won't just be me who pays for it.

Download or read book The Vampire in Contemporary Popular Literature written by Lorna Piatti-Farnell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-07 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prominent examples from contemporary vampire literature expose a desire to re-evaluate and re-work the long-standing, folkloristic interpretation of the vampire as the immortal undead. This book explores the "new vampire" as a literary trope, offering a comprehensive critical analysis of vampires in contemporary popular literature and demonstrating how they engage with essential cultural preoccupations, anxieties, and desires. Drawing from cultural materialism, anthropology, psychoanalysis, literary criticism, gender studies, and postmodern thought, Piatti-Farnell re-frames the concept of the vampire in relation to a distinctly twenty-first century brand of Gothic imagination, highlighting important aesthetic, conceptual, and cultural changes that have affected the literary genre in the post-2000 era. She places the contemporary literary vampire within the wider popular culture scope, also building critical connections with issues of fandom and readership. In reworking the formulaic elements of the vampiric tradition — and experimenting with genre-bending techniques — this book shows how authors such as J.R. Ward, Stephanie Meyers, Charlaine Harris, and Anne Rice have allowed vampires to be moulded into enigmatic figures who sustain a vivid conceptual debt to contemporary consumer and popular culture. This book highlights the changes — conceptual, political and aesthetic — that vampires have undergone in the past decade, simultaneously addressing how these changes in "vampire identity" impact on the definition of the Gothic as a whole.

Book excerpt: There's more than one way to keep a vampire up all night. I swore I was over clingy men—I have enough to deal with taking care of my own damn self—so I decided to give up dating until the gene pool markedly improved. But then I happened to share a toe-curling kiss with a sexy Irish vampire (What? It was an accident! My lips fell on his!), and it became obvious the problem wasn't men—the problem was human men. Unfortunately, right after my revelation about gorgeous vampires and their excellent tongue game, my "future boyfriend" disappeared. Way to make me feel unwelcome! What's a girl to do? Join V-Date, the popular vampire dating site, obviously. How else was I supposed to find my Irish delight other than to let the vampire community know I was on the hunt for him? Yeah, yeah, okay, maybe not the best idea considering there was some sort of human recruiting going on, but hey, at least he can come to my rescue now...I hope. Praise for Juliet Lyons's paranormal romance Dating the Undead: "Quick, sharp wit that sinks its fangs into the reader and doesn't let go!"—MOLLY HARPER, acclaimed author of Sweet Tea and Sympathy and the Half-Moon Hollow series
