I am no coward. I want to make that perfectly clear. But after my life turned into a horror movie, I take fear a lot more seriously now. I finally became Dr Carrie Ames just eight months ago. Then I was attacked in the hospital morgue by a vampire. Now I’m a vampire and it turns out I have a blood tie to the monster who sired me. And of course he’s one of the most evil vampires on earth. With my sire hell-bent on turning me into a soulless killer and his sworn enemy set to exterminate me, things couldn’t get much worse – except I’m attracted to them both. Drinking blood, living as an immortal demon and being a pawn between two warring vampire factions isn’t exactly how I'd imagined my future. But, as my father used to say, the only way to conquer fear is to face it. So that’s what I’ll do. Fangs bared. Love Sookie Stackhouse and Bella Swan? It’s time to meet newly turned vampire Carrie Ames.

Opening Line: “I read a poll in the newspaper once that said the number one fear of Americans aged eighteen to sixty-five is public speaking. Spiders are second and death is a distant third.”Wow, this was a fun. Not quite what I was expecting but as it turned out a great ride. For some reason I went...
Dr Carrie Ames is a new doctor, not quite sure that this is the best future for her but willing to give it a try until she's attacked in the emergency room. When she starts to change and isn't sure of what's going on she goes looking for answers and is almost killed before being rescued. The vampi...
Dr. Carrie Ames is a new doctor, overworked but driven, skilled and determined. Right until a John Doe arrives in her emergency room who simply shouldn’t be alive. He doesn’t last long but he shakes her to the core – enough for her to go check on his body in the morgue. Only to find that body healed...
This book sucked me in from the start, kinda like a horror movie. I have to admit I really didn't like Carrie at first. She was in my opinion a cold hearted bitch because of her memories of being a bully in childhood through med school. A lot of the stuff that happens in this book with her sire sick...
