title: Night Bites: Vampire Stories by Women Tales of Blood and Lust
author:  Victoria A. Brownworth 
description: Brownworth has assembled a collection of stories that have varying degrees of merit. Some have heavy-handed feminist or political themes and are plagued by predictable plots or cardboard characters. Others, however, have unique offerings for those who enjoy offbeat literature. Judith Katz's "Anita, Polish Vampire, Holds Forth at the Jewish Cafe of the Dead" is a funny, quirky little tale with a lesbian twist. In "Sustenance," Susanna J. Sturgis evokes the surreal world of a woman's emotional collapse. The theme of vampire seduction plays a major role in Diane Lisa D. Williamson's "Best of Friends," but in DeKelb-Rittenhouse's "To Die For," seduction hits an all-time erotic high. Judith M. Redding's "Unexpurgated Notes from a Homicide Case File" features an African American female police officer investigating four murders that appear to be the work of a blood-sucking creature. Although all the stories have a vampiric element, the true emphasis is on feminism.

  Jonah Grey, driven by a lust for the blood of the legendary Chupacabra that
  murdered the woman who was to be his mate, jumps at the offer to leave the FBI
  and join Night Seekers, who are dedicated to hunting and killing the devil
  beast.
  
  
  Then Jonah encounters a woman with whom he shares explosive chemistry that
  neither can deny—and sex that brings a level of pleasure neither has ever
  known. Soon he’s dividing his time and indulging in erotic bouts of orgasmic
  lust with Dakota.
  
  
  But the devil beast must still be dealt with, and the wolf in Jonah won’t rest
  until the Chupacabra is dead.
