What starts out as a typical interview of Lilian VanSchattigdame, lead character from the Lori Ellis novel ‘Prettiest Vampire’, becomes a demonic free-for-all when the other characters show up wanting to be heard! AndreaPorcelainDoll, interviewer of numerous Wattpad characters, has her hands full with two homicidal harpies and the vampire Count Dodrescu himself, but it’s nothing she can’t handle.

Best friends Larry Talbot and Steve Frank are touring Europe with a stop in Bistritz Romania, "Spook Central for the entire planet!" Together with their new friend Gwen Williams, what begins as a fun evening turns to murder and mayhem as they have to deal with ancient gypsy curses (and even more ancient gypsies), sarcastic Romanian Police Detectives, horny werewolves, carnival hucksters, trances and cages and chains and screaming and barking and naked gypsies! Bride of the Wolf is Part II of the Transylvanian Transformation Series by Lori Ellis. It occurs at the same time and place as Prettiest Vampire, Part I of the series, but is a separate story with different characters. Either can be read first, as long as you understand that you will want to read both! Bride of the Wolf switches from horror to humor faster than you will be able to breathe. It is the most horrifying, and hilarious story you will read this year!

Fates, Furies, Sirens, Harpies, call them what you will. Daciana and Ilinca were an ancient evil, and had been known by many names. They had always existed alone, shunning both humans and other demons, yet for the past three hundred years they had lived with the vampires. It was necessary, following the death of their beloved baby sister Anna. Their grief over Anna's death drove them to madness - life with the vampires was all that had brought them back from this dark insanity. And so for three centuries they had bowed to the vampires, called them Master and Mistress, but no longer. Tonight, everything would change. Lilian Van Schattigdame was the company's top salesman in Eastern Europe. He was also their only salesman in Eastern Europe. Had there been others, his top salesman status would likely have been in doubt. He hadn't actually sold anything at this point. Oh, and he was also his boss's wife's cousin's nephew. Count Dodrescu requires a maiden, to fulfill a ritual and serve as the vessel for his beloved Mirela's demon soul. Renfield needs to supply his Master with a maiden, to gain favour and achieve immortality. Daciana and Ilinca need to prevent Dodrescu from finding a maiden, so that he will not discover they are Mirela's murderers. So what happens when all that anyone finds is a guy named Lilian? Prettiest Vampire alternates between horror and humour. It is possibly the scariest - and funniest! - vampire story you will read this year!

Rosie Dryden was not ready to become a Californian. She knew that the moment that her mother announced the family's imminent uprooting from their comfortable Chicago life and towards the sunshine of the west coast. And Rosie was pretty sure that sunshine would be the only upside in a world where her awkwardness would stand out like a sore thumb among the beautiful people of the boardwalk. She was wrong. Oh, so very wrong.
