Today we are joined by prolific paranormal romance author, Michele Hauf. Welcome!

Seems like vampires are so common nowadays, if someone tells you they’re dating a vampire, you probably wouldn’t even blink an eye. And that’s not even on the page in a fiction novel. ;-) But seriously, the fanged ones have taken over the pages. Everywhere you look you see books with vampire in the title, and fangs slipping over his sensual thick lips (or hers), and the telltale bite marks on the heroine’s swanlike neck. But writers and publishers are mixing it up. Amidst the flock of vampires you’ll find angels, demons, werewolves, faeries, shapeshifters, even zombies. (But seriously? A zombie romance? Ugg.) And we like them all. Variety is the spice, and all that. But if I had to pick one particular ‘creature’ for a boyfriend, I’d go with the classic vampire.

You know what you’re getting with the vamp. Mostly. He’s going to be tall, dark and handsome, for sure. (Blonde and brawny is fine too.) He’ll probably be old—really old—but he won’t show his age. He’s going to be eternally young, and everything on him will stay young as well (heh). He may have an aversion to the sunlight and thus, only be able to take you out at night, but many vampires can do sunlight, so that’s not a deal-breaker. He’s not a big eater. You won’t be required to cook for him, (though he may start stocking your cupboards with curious bottles of dark red liquid). Naturally, he’s stylish. Not too many vamps get by without learning some fashion sense over the decades or centuries they’ve walked the earth. You’ll be proud to show him off.  Read more

Her Vampire Husband (Wicked Games, #3) by Michele Hauf. © 2010 HQN Books. ISBN 9780373774999. Paranormal Romance. 360 pages. $7.99 US [ Purchase ] Source: eARC from author

Synopsis: An arranged marriage between a werewolf and a vampire.  There will be blood.  She may resist his bite, but she can’t resist his charms…

Werewolf princess Blu Masterson won’t allow her seductive vampire husband to consummate their marriage with his bite, marking her forever. Alone in a secluded estate with her sworn enemy, Blu curses the marriage arranged to bring their rival nations together, especially since Creed Saint-Pierre calls out to her most feral desires.

When Blu uncovers her pack’s secret plot to destroy the vampire nation—and Creed—she is forced to confront her growing feelings for her sexy undead husband. Will she choose the only life she’s ever known or accept his vampire bite?

Review: At first glance Her Vampire Husband seems deceptively simple, boy meets girl, girl hates boy, boy makes girl love him despite all odds.  But there is so much more to the story. Read more
