Because Your Vampire Said So

Book3

When you’re immortal, being a mom won’t kill you—it will only make you stronger. Not just anyone can visit Broken Heart, Oklahoma, especially since all the single moms—like me, Patsy Donahue—have been turned into vampires. Now I’m forever forty, but looking younger than my years, thanks to my new (un)lifestyle. And even though most of my customers skipped town, I still manage to keep my hair salon up-and-running, thanks to the lycanthropes prowling around. They know how important good grooming is, especially a certain rogue shapeshifter who’s as sexy as he is deadly. Now, if only I could put a leash on my wild teenage son. He’s up to his neck in danger. The stress would kill me, if I wasn’t already dead. But my maternal instinct is still alive and kicking. And no one had better mess with my own flesh and blood…

Don't Talk Back to Your Vampire

Book2

Sometimes it’s hard to take your own advice—or pulse. Ever since a master vampire became possessed and bit a bunch of parents, the town of Broken Heart, Oklahoma, has catered to those of us who don’t rise until sunset—even if that means PTA meetings at midnight. As for me, Eva LeRoy, town librarian and single mother to a teenage daughter, I’m pretty much used to being “vampified.” You can’t beat the great side effects: no crow’s-feet or cellulite! But books still make my undead heart beat—and, strangely enough, so does Lorcan the Loner. My mama always told me everyone deserves a second chance. Still, it’s one thing to deal with the usual undead hassles: rival vamps, rambunctious kids adjusting to night school, and my daughter’s new boyfriend, who’s a vampire hunter, for heaven’s sake. It’s quite another to fall for the vampire who killed you…

REVIEWS

" Bardsley gives her readers a winning follow-up to I'm the Vampire, That's Why (2006) filled with humor, supernatural romance, and truly evil villains."
~ Booklist

4 Stars! "Broken Heart, Okla., continues to turn into supernatural central in the second installment of Bardsley's wonderfully offbeat and funny tales. This time librarian turned vampire Eva LeRoy chronicles the paranormal problems plaguing residents. Quirky, yet spiced with danger and sexy suspense, Bardsley's latest definitely shows that she has her groove on!"
~ Jill M. Smith, RT BOOKreviews

“Cutting-edge humor and a raw, seductive hero.”
~ Dakota Cassidy, author of The Accidental Werewolf

Score: 5/5 “Michele Bardsley weaves a magical, suspenseful, steamy romance into the next segment of the Broken Heart books. [She] gives us another magical and wonderfully entertaining story. I will definitely read anything [she] puts out about the Broken Heart clans.”

I'm The Vampire That's Why

Book1

Does drinking blood make me a bad mother? Broken Heart is the city with the highest rate of divorce and highest percentage of single parents in Oklahoma. And I, Jessica Matthews, have been a member of that club, ever since my husband dumped me for his twenty-something secretary and then had the gall to die in a car accident. Now I'm not just a single mother trying to make ends meet in this crazy world ... I'm also a vampire. One minute, I was taking out the garbage; the next, I awoke sucking on the thigh of superhot vampire Patrick O'Halloran. But though my stretchmarks have disappeared and my vision has improved, I can't rest until the thing did this to me is caught. My kids' future is at stake ... as is my sex life. Once a vampire does the dirty deed, it hitches her to the object of her affection for at least one hundred years. I just don't know if I'm ready for that kind of commitment...
