Vampires: The Good, The Bad, and The Sexy

 At first writing about vampires was hard for me. I was the child who sat trembling in front of the tv when Bela Lugosi lifted his cape and bared his fangs, even when it was Abbott and Costello running corkscrew crazy in circles around him. In my world, vampires were the villains.  So when I wrote my first vampire book, The Combat, vampires absolutely played the role of villain.

But as we grow up we learn that villains take many forms. And if there’s one thing the role models in our lives try to teach us about tolerance, it’s that you can’t lump one group into the good or bad category based solely on what they are. I learned there were good vampires too. One of my imaginary characters walked right across my gray matter and knocked on the front of my skull to get my attention. “I’m bad, but I don’t want to be evil,” he said.

So Guardian’s Realm became a series, and book two’s main character is a somewhat snarky bad boy vampire hiding a basically good heart. Fitch may want the world to think he’s a hard ass, but when you need him, he’s there for you.

Accidentally cast through a magical portal to an enchanted prison with a slave girl and a vampire fugitive, a Guardian warrior must come to terms with their situation, and the irrefutable past he shares with his vampire enemy.
