My Viking Vampire

Smashing Debut of a New Series!

In 2047, the Others – mostly shifters and vampires came out. Things did not go too well for them in the United States, except in the Republic of Texas. Almost half a century later, the Others are barely tolerated, and in most places, humans are allowed to shoot to kill at will. Bailey Ross has had a tough life and went through a very bad relationship; her former boyfriend was abusive and violent; she still bears the scars of his cruelty. And she is always trying to avoid him; being a cop, he has ways to look for her and he always finds her.


Bailey has been taught in school to fear and avoid the Others, like everybody else. But one evening, she is attacked by a Djinn, and she is rescued by, of all creatures, a vampire: Erick Thorson. Strangely enough, Erick is the kindest person she has ever known, and he is not at all like she was told vampires were: he’s kind and thoughtful. He takes her to Sanctuary, a small city for Others, and for the first time in her life, Bailey feels she belongs. But even though she and Erick are quickly falling in love, it’s not that simple.


MY VIKING VAMPIRE is somewhat different from a lot of vampire books: the love story is very tender, very loving. Erick might be an alpha when it comes to business, but he’s the perfect gentleman where people or any Other are concerned, especially Bailey. He’s a good man and he genuinely wants to protect and love Bailey. Besides vampires, there are several Others, and the characters are so much more interesting than what I usually see in paranormal romance. I really liked MY VIKING VAMPIRE; it’s intelligent, sexy, sensual, there’s quite a bit of action; nothing’s missing! And Ms. Shannan is an exceptional writer: her prose flows effortlessly, she writes beautifully and yet it’s young and light. A great paranormal romance; highly recommended!
