Booktalk: Many of you love the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer. If you do, this one’s for you. Jessica Packwood lives a normal high school life until she meets the handsome vampire that insists she will marry him because she’s “vampire royalty.” Since Jessica is adopted, she learns more about her past than she wants to know. Is she destined to marry this handsome vampire? What is required of her?
Note: A highly recommended book for horror lovers that also love romance. The plot is fast-paced and humorous, especially the vampire’s letters to his Romanian uncle about the culture shock of American high school. Visit the author, Beth Fantaskey at her website.
