title: Moon Dance (Vampire for Hire, Book 1)
author:  J.R. Rain 
description: **Acclaim for Moon Dance**<br /><br />"I enjoyed Moon Dance immensely. Theprotagonist, Samantha Moon, is a female vampire with a husband andchildren. Those predate her condition; six years ago she was attacked by a vampire and rendered into one. Now she's trying to carry on withfamily and private eye business, and she's a feisty, skilled person, sois doing mostly okay. It is not a horror story; she buys animal blood to eat and doesn't generally prey on humans. But her husband has anincreasing problem with her coldness - not of spirit, but of body. 'Yousicken me and scare the hell out of me,' he tells her. 'And when I touch you it's all I can do to not gag.' She replies, 'Words every wife wants to hear.' I love this! She really doesn't deserve to be frozen out ofher marriage, yet his attitude is understandable. In the course of thenovel she solves the mystery she is tackling for a client, and finds anew romantic interest. What makes it special are her character andnature. I sure wouldn't have kicked her out of bed. I recommend it aslight reading, odd as that may sound." -Piers Anthony, New York Timesbestselling author of A SPELL FOR CHAMELEON<br /><br />"Moon Dance is a must read. If you like Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum, bounty hunter, beprepared to love J. R. Rain's Samantha Moon, vampire privateinvestigator." -Eve Paludan, author of WITCHY BUSINESS<br /><br />"Moon Dance is absolutely brilliant!" -Lisa Tenzin-Dolma, author of UNDERSTANDING THE PLANETARY MYTHS
