TRUE BLOOD MEETS STEPHANIE PLUM "This book is what got me hooked on J.R. Rain! I could not put it down once I got started, and even once finished, I had to go and find the rest..." "I love this series. I'll read as many as I can get my hands on." "Rain's writing flows so naturally you can't help but be sucked into his imaginative world. His sense of humor keeps the laughs coming, and he throws some fun twists at us to keep things interesting." "Mr. Rain managed to make me fall so far into the character that I couldn't put the story down once I started reading." "I have really enjoyed Rain's Vampire for Hire series. His banter and dialogue are excellent and his sense of humor is superb." Six years ago federal agent Samantha Moon was the perfect wife and mother, your typical soccer mom with the minivan and suburban home. Then the unthinkable happens, an attack that changes her life forever. And forever is a very long time for a vampire. Now in Moon Dance , the world at large thinks Samantha has developed a rare skin disease, a disease which forces her to quit her day job and stay out of the light of the sun. Working the night shift as a private investigator, Samantha is hired by Kingsley Fulcrum to investigate the murder attempt on his life, a horrific scene captured on TV and seen around the country. But as the case unfolds, Samantha discovers Kingsley isn't exactly what he appears to be; after all, there is a reason why he survived five shots to the head... "J.R. Rain's Moon Dance is a fabulous urban fantasy replete with multifarious and unusual characters, a perfectly synchronized plot, vibrant dialogue and sterling witticism all wrapped in voice that is as beautiful as it is rich and vividly intense as it is relaxed. Beautiful Samantha Moon, Moon Dance's darling star, is a fiercely devoted mother, a private investigator and no ordinary vampire. Infected six years ago, and dieting on nothing but blood, Samantha strives for normalcy, keeping her vampiric nature second to the safety and well being of her family but fears her etherealness might be driving her husband to warmer pastures. So what does a larger than life, butt kicking anywhere anytime sexy and sassy mouthed vampire need? Kingsley Fulcrum. Her scrumptiously hot new client, who hires Samantha to find the culprit responsible for his multiple gunshot wounds while masking a dark secret of his own. Yummy! As Samantha tracks down the curvy truth behind Fulcrum's attack, she is forced to face up to her own truths...that the spirit of the vampire within her cried for soaring liberation. Amidst the playful lightness and sparkling humor, Samantha must make painful decisions. Unleashing her freedom can only come at the cost of a heartbreaking sacrifice. With an ensemble of unique secondary characters, a loyal sister, a hunky detective, a sweet vampire slayer, an online friend who's Samantha strong shoulder, add to that a medallion of special effects worn by her attacker and then sent to her and an unsuspecting and surprising twist make Moon Dance's multifaceted design sharp on details, impossible to put down and written with a smooth but gripping, entertaining and confident hand. I give Moon Dance ten delicious bites. You will too!" - April Vine, author of The Midnight Rose

Book Two in the bestselling Vampire for Hire series! Mother, wife, private investigator...vampire. Six years ago federal agent Samantha Moon was the perfect wife and mother, your typical soccer mom with the minivan and suburban home. Then the unthinkable happens, an attack that changes her life forever. And forever is a very long time for a vampire. Now in Vampire Moon , private investigator Samantha Moon finds herself hunting down a powerful crime lord and protecting an innocent woman from her ruthless ex-husband―all while two very different men vie for her heart. And as the stakes grow higher and her cases turn personal, Samantha Moon will do whatever it takes to protect the innocent and bring two cold-blooded killers to justice―her own brand of justice. **Acclaim for the Novels of J.R. Rain** "Gripping, adventurous, and romantic―J.R. Rain's The Lost Ark is a breakneck thriller that traces the thread of history from Biblical stories to current-day headlines. Be prepared to lose sleep!" ― JAMES ROLLINS , international bestselling author of Altar of Eden and The Doomsday Key "I enjoyed this immensely. The protagonist, Samantha Moon, is a female vampire with a husband and children. Those predate her condition; six years ago she was attacked by a vampire and rendered into one. Now she's trying to carry on with family and private eye business, and she's a feisty, skilled person, so is 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 an increasing problem with her coldness―not of spirit, but of body. 'You sicken 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! What makes it special are her character and nature." ― PIERS ANTHONY , New York Times bestselling author of A Spell for Chameleon and On A Pale Horse " Dark Horse is one of the best books I've read in a long time! A great classic detective story with a modern twist. Unique and interesting characters (I think I'm half in love with Jim Knighthorse now!), a great plot that kept me guessing until the end, and some of the funniest lines I've read anywhere." ― GEMMA HALLIDAY , author of Deadly Cool and Play Dead "Impossible to put down. J.R. Rain's Moon Dance is a fabulous urban fantasy." ― APRIL VINE , author of The Midnight Rose and Blindfolded by Lust " Moon Dance is absolutely brilliant!" ― LISA TENZIN-DOLMA , author of Understanding the Planetary Myths and The Dolphin Experience " Moon Dance is a must read. If you like Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum, bounty hunter, be prepared to love J. R. Rain's Samantha Moon, vampire private investigator." ― EVE PALUDAN , author of Witchy Business and Wolf Moon "I totally loved The Body Departed . As someone who communicates with those who are either earthbound or have crossed over―your descriptions and interpretations of the dialogue and circumstances could not have been written more accurately. My favorite scene is the one of Jesus stepping down from the cross and then the passionate and compassionate way it was treated as he went back to the cross. I will relive that for a long time to come. You're a wonderfully descriptive writer who paints a very creative, visionary canvass based in a paranormal pallet that only a few experience and many can enjoy." ― JULIE BELMONT , author of The Path to Personal Success and Freedom and Seizing Your Success "I love Jim Knighthorse! Please write faster, Mr. Rain!" ― ELAINE BABICH , author of You Never Called Me Princess and Relatively Normal "Powerful stuff!" ― AIDEN JAMES , author of Cades Cove and Deadly Night

Samantha Moon once considered being turned into a vampire as the single greatest upheaval of her life—but she'd been wrong. Still reeling from the aftereffects of her hunt across the higher dimensions, she hopes for a little calm before the storm to sort out exactly what she's become, and what meaning the events of the sixth dimension have for the world at large. The dark masters had been dangerous enough when contained, but now... A zombie in a television show her kids love speaks to her straight out of the screen. Sam initially dismisses it as a trick of the mind, but when she runs into the same woman a few days later, it's quite obvious that the dark masters aren't sitting on their laurels. Or are they... Her new friend turns out to be a supernatural the world has never seen before, not for real—a zombie, or at least something similar. The young woman isn't rotting or mindless, but no self-respecting dark master would want such a shell. Fearing this poor woman is the spearhead of the apocalypse, Sam rushes to find the source of the infection before humanity is doomed.
