Just Getting Started
This book has taken over fifteen years to put on paper. The only good thing I can think of to come from so much time with one idea is, I've had plenty of time to develop the characters. They have essentially created themselves, making each one person unique from the other. The stories and dialogue progressed so quickly there was rarely enough time to get it all on paper before I forgot. (And I am very forgetful so I carry a word processor and note pad with me everywhere.)
Ideas that started from square one have branched off into other areas and new territory for me. The characters have pushed me further to write creatively and agressively, trying to capture their true spirits on the page.
I sincerely hope that readers will enjoy the stories I have (this is book one of four) and continue to support Club Nosferatu and all of its inhabitants, human and vampire alike.

Club Nosferatu synopsis
"Club Nosferatu" is about a brood of vampires and how they learn to accept reality the hard way.
The covenant Kris and his siblings strike is simple: live harmoniously among humans. To do so, the brood establishes Club Nosferatu. They intend the nightclub to be a place where they could openly and freely mingle with humans. The only catch is they must keep their identities as vampires secret at all cost.
Masquerading as mere human nightclub owners is easier said than done for Kris and his siblings.
Reining one's instinct is difficult- if not impossible-especially for those whose "hunger" is "greater" than others. Nevertheless, Kris and his siblings manage to do so, until he commits the worst mistake imaginable-he falls in love
with a human. Before long, lines are drawn between the siblings. Then everything begins unraveling, inevitably ending in the departure of the brood.

More on Club Nosferatu's story line
Kris is tired, angry and balancing on his last nerve. And why shouldn’t he be? He’s a two hundred year old vampire
living in the hot Arizona desert, in modern society, trying to co-exist with humans, run a successful business and rein in
his blood-thirsty ex-girlfriend. To make matters worse, Kris is constantly visited by his meddlesome, immature sister who wants nothing more than to gain control...of the family and unite them all under her rule. Raven, one third of a
triplet sibling has spent decades building her pack of wolves to unreasonable numbers, all with the hopes of taking her one step further to her goal and absolute power. In the midst of Kris balancing his human façade and vampire existence a woman comes into his world, igniting feelings that Kris has never felt, nor ever hoped to. An assertive, independent and beautiful woman, Blaze is instantly drawn to his mysterious ways and quick temper, a connection that quickly builds when Kris finds that there is more to this human than meets the eye. The strange control
that she has over him is powerful and perplexing.
Norah, ‘the ex’, begins to see the change in Kris and the tilt in his interest. In matters of the heart the playing field has never been so one-sided. Could a human ever stand against a vampire for the affections of another or would Norah
finally win her prize and have Kris beside her for all eternity? Blaze soon finds herself in the midst of a battle for
Kris’s attention and affections that have been going on for centuries. In the end, lines will be drawn, decisions will be made and life as they know it will never be the same.
