Not too many people pull out their bags of tricks for Halloween these days, but it's a fine time to get treated by the best in paranormal romanticists. In this anthology, three of them tickle the readers' funny bones on the subject of vampires.

Ms. Ashley gives us an author investigating vampires in Vegas and finding more than she bargained for. Ms. Macalister returns us to the world of Dark Ones and their Beloveds, showing us again why she is "beloved" by her fans.

The collection ends on a high note as Minda Webber proves her contemporary paranormal writing is just as much quirky fun as her historical when a talk show host specializing in the outre gets a chance to confront her feelings for a vampire cop, the only man she ever loved.

You should definitely leave a light on while reading these stories, though. It is hard to read in the dark and you won't want to miss a word.

Synopsis
A sunbathing vamp in Vegas? Meredith Black is absolutely positive the tanned god with the gorgeous smile couldn't have possibly made her his for eternity with just one glance. But he'll sure have fun proving it.

Battling a demon lord is all in a day's work for the Dark One named Sebastian. But now he must take on a horde of unhappy zombies and an obnoxious teen vampire if he wants to win the hand of the one woman who can make him whole.

Talk show host Lucy Campbell has made a career of interviewing Druid witches, trolls, and an occasional goblin. But now she wants more. Only she wasn't expecting to get involved with a vampire detective who has a slight incubus problem.
