The emotions that the characters were able to draw out of me solidified my enjoyment of "Bleeding Hearts." One of an author's main goals is to get you, the reader, into their story--literally, if they could--by invoking each and every emotion that he/she writes into a character. Ash Krafton does this successfully without any unintentional awkward moments. Her writing style is very smooth, understandable, and didn't leave me questioning what just happened.""The characters were wonderfully written and interesting to follow. Towards the end of the story I was also emotionally involved in the story as well."BLOOD RUSH "Firstly, wow! I literally cannot express how much I love this series! I read the first book in the series, Bleeding Hearts, and could not wait for Blood Rush. It starts right where the first book ended, with Sophie recovering emotionally and physically from "The Crap That Almost Killed Her"."WOLF'S BANE"I was anxious to see how this story would end though...mostly because I was torn between which ending I wanted for Sophie.""I can honestly say this is my favorite book so far in this series. While I have enjoyed reading about Marek and Sofie and then later Rode, I really liked the addition of Dierk."Tales of the Demimonde is a collection of short works based on the urban fantasy trilogy, The Books of The Demimonde.

Take a trip to the small town where only outsiders fit in with the first novel in Charlaine Harris’ paranormal mystery series—as seen in NBC’s primetime television series Midnight, Texas.
**Welcome to Midnight, Texas, a town with many boarded-up windows and few full-time inhabitants, located at the crossing of Witch Light Road and the Davy highway. It’s a pretty standard dried-up western town.
There’s a pawnshop with three residents. One is seen only at night. There’s a diner, but people stopping there tend not to linger. There’s a newcomer, Manfred Bernardo, who just wants to work hard and blend in. But Manfred has secrets of his own...
**From Booklist
Harris comes off the ending of her wildly popular Sookie Stackouse series with a new mystery-romance-paranormal mash-up, slated as the first in a planned trilogy. The inhabitants of Midnight, Texas, have all chosen the derelict little town for its size and its quietness—it’s a great place to hide. But what are they hiding from? Bobo Winthrop, proprietor of the local pawn shop, seems to know a little bit about everyone in town, and they all have secrets. The new tenant in the basement of the pawn shop only comes out after dark, while New Age instructor Fiji Cavanaugh openly claims to be a witch and can talk to her cat, Mr. Snuggly. When Bobo’s girlfriend, Aubrey, disappears, people start to ask too many questions, and everyone begins to fear that their pasts will be exposed, along with Aubrey’s. Although it’s much lighter on the paranormal elements than Harris’ usual fare, this should still make the lists of readers who miss Sookie and company. HIGH DEMAND BACKSTORY: Between her books and the HBO spin-off True Blood, Harris has a large fan base. Now that both the print and the television series have ended, they’re looking for something new to read. --Rebecca Vnuk
