Vampires. What makes them so fascinating? Why are they
always popular in fiction? Personally, I think that it is the promise of youth,
health and immortality. Plus nowadays they’re dead sexy! The days of Nosferatu
are gone, welcome Damon Salvatore instead. In our culture everyone seems to
want to stay looking young, well I guess vampirism is one way to do it. Now I
can only speak for myself here, but as someone who has and is still battling
major illnesses, the promise of being young and healthy forever has a great
appeal. If I drank the blood of a vampire I would be cured? Sign me up. I can
deal with the lack of sun and drinking blood to feel healthy and powerful any
day.
There is also the promise of eternal love that goes along
with eternal life. If you have found the love of your life, wouldn’t you want
to spend eternity with them? Especially as mentioned before if they are
gorgeous and sexy as hell? Yes please! Imagine being about to travel the world
forever with your one true love. Never fearing being separated? Sounds pretty
appealing right?
I don’t think vampires are ever going to go out of style.
The mythos of them is as eternal as they are. Sure, they seem to change over
time. They were once monsters to be feared, now they are creatures to be
desired, or at least mine are ;)

Three vampire stories in one collection for the first time!
In Under a Ring of Fire, everything changes for Jackie thanks to an eclipse of the sun. She is a dying woman, living what's left of her life in misery. One night, one mysterious guest and she will be forever altered. Is this her chance to live at last?
In Curse of the Blood, not even service to his king in time of war could prepare Melvil for the pleasurable evil he would suffer at the hands of Honnor. One act of kindness dooms him to a life that he never wanted.
In Alone No More, the tortured Melvil is back, living a life of penance. One night he saves a young woman from ghouls and sees hope for the first time in years. Ella is a woman alone in life, until a mysterious Frenchman saves her from more than ghouls.
