The Wannabe Vampire d’Alex Taylor (VO)
Résumé (traduction personnelle) : Michael Alexander n’est pas votre vampire typique. Il a une maison dans une petite ville côtière de la Californie, une équipe de développement de logiciels à Mumbai, et une Toyota Prius noire.

Bruce est convaincu que le pouvoir d’un vampire peut le sauver d’un fantôme qui le hante. Après avoir eu la chance de le rencontrer à l’épicerie, il demande de l’aide à Michael. Quand les demandes de Bruce sont rejetées, sa nature instable prend le dessus. Piégé entre un homme désespéré et dérangé, Michael et Kari sont pris entre quatre feux.

Where to go from there? From bad to worse apparently, for Alexia accidentally kills the vampire — and then the appalling Lord Maccon (loud, messy, gorgeous, and werewolf) is sent by Queen Victoria to investigate.
With unexpected vampires appearing and expected vampires disappearing, everyone seems to believe Alexia responsible. Can she figure out what is actually happening to London’s high society? Will her soulless ability to negate supernatural powers prove useful or just plain embarrassing? Finally, who is the real enemy, and do they have treacle tart?
Living with her alcoholic deadbeat dad in the swamps of southern Louisiana, she’s a high school dropout with a pill habit and a criminal record who’s been fired from more crap jobs than she can count. Now on probation for a felony, it seems that Angel will never pull herself out of the downward spiral her life has taken.
That is, until the day she wakes up in the ER after overdosing on painkillers. Angel remembers being in an horrible car crash, but she doesn’t have a mark on her. To add to the weirdness, she receives an anonymous letter telling her there’s a job waiting for her at the parish morgue—and that it’s an offer she doesn’t dare refuse.
Before she knows it she’s dealing with a huge crush on a certain hunky deputy and a brand new addiction: an overpowering craving for brains. Plus, her morgue is filling up with the victims of a serial killer who decapitates his prey—just when she’s hungriest!
Angel’s going to have to grow up fast if she wants to keep this job and stay in one piece. Because if she doesn’t, she’s dead meat.
Literally.
