The Rock Star of Vampires was my third book and the first time I tackled the topic of vampires. I would later follow it up with Her Name is Mariah.
With this book, I explored the idea that perhaps vampires aren't so different from everyday people: with only a few exceptions, one of which was their need to drink blood. I compared it to most people's need for specific vitamins to maintain balance. Also, my vampires had heightened senses. For example, they can see the pollution on trees, have enhanced taste buds, and hear sounds from miles away.
Here is a quick synopsis of the book:
Did Hollywood get it wrong? A year after transforming into a mortal vampire, Ava Lilith continues to have a lackluster life. The new dietary requirements and the intensifying of her senses aside, she continues to face unhappiness rather than the glamorous and provocative lifestyle that television and movies would suggest. She then learns of an underground society of immortal vampires, led by the mysterious 'rock star of vampires' Cloaked in shadow, this Immortal sect controls the major powers of the world - from business and finance to science and politics - all manipulated for personal gain and to keep their existence concealed. Ava finds herself drawn to this secret world where she could live forever and pursue all her dreams. But what will she lose, in order to gain immortality?
