Jessica's Guide to Dating on the Dark Side

This is a YP book, new release, I highly recommend it to fellow Twilight and House of Night series lovers. Cleverly done told by two viewpoints, Jessica aka Anastasia and Lucius. Jessica is a Romanian Vampire Princess who was adopted at birth and whisked away by two Americans. Lucius has come for his fiance, Jessica. They were betrothed at birth in order to join two feuding vampire families and create peace. But as you know romance never goes smoothly. Another interesting twist is that Jessica will not turn into a vampire until she reaches puberty which is around 18 and can fully evolve into a vampire until she is "kissed" by a male vampire. I would highly recommend it to our teens. Lucius's letters home to his uncle are very witty!

What I did for Love

Susan Elizabeth Phillips - What I did for Love

The perfect weekend read. A lovely blend of romance and humour. Ms. Phillips always delivers a light read with great characters. Georgie our main character was a childhood star who has recently been divorced by her action star husband. When confronted by paparrazzi with a sonogram of her ex-husbands new wife's baby, Georgie falls apart. Who comes to rescue her? Bram her much hated co-star, a self centred party boy. There are other secondary characters, Chaz, Bram's young house keeper, Aaron, Georgie's Personal Assistant, Paul Georgie's controlling manager and Laura her agent. A must read!!
