Fangsters


Book Description

At a glance, Anton Pagano looks and sounds just like any other twenty-something. He lives in a mansion in northern New Jersey with his mom and dad, and he's never had to worry about anything other than his wardrobe, his latest new car, and the secret love affair he's been having for years. However, Anton has more than just the love affair to hide: he belongs to a Sicilian vampire mobster clan that migrated to New Jersey in the late 1800s. When Anton's dad, the head of their clan, decides it's time for Anton and his vampire cousin Digger to get into the “family business,” Anton's not all that excited about it. Until he meets a sweet, young human named Leo on his first night at work. They wind up spending the rest of the night together, but things get even more complicated when they bring Anton's secret vampire lover into the picture a few weeks later. After a bloody battle with werewolves, and the beginning of what Anton predicts will be an all-out war between two vampire mob clans in New Jersey, Anton and his secret vampire lover decide it's time to consider turning Leo into a vampire so all three of them can be together for eternity. But thanks to fate, nothing is as simple as it looks, and they wind up doing the one thing they ever wanted to do to Leo as a last resort.




What the Fang?


Book Description

Who is stupid enough to pick on my vampires? When a thief snatched the fang of one of my students, I had to stop them. Think about it. What’s a vampire without a fang? My name is Rebel Black. I’m the book-nerd-witch who runs Fangsters, the notorious school for delinquent, teenaged, night stalkers, housed in a Victorian bordello in Mystic Keep. It’s a small town in the Pacific Northwest that looks picturesque and innocent, but my academy, filled with secrets, and more than its share of murders has been listed in the Supernatural Gazette as a ten on the Creepy Richter scale. Trust me, I didn’t choose this job. I’m being blackmailed by one of the most powerful vampires in all the realms, and until I devise a spell strong enough to stop him cold, I must do his bidding. But to be honest, teaching predators hasn’t turned out to be as bad as you might expect. There’s never a dull moment in the house of the rising dead. What can I say—predators grow on you. Take Onyx, my head of security, for an example. He’s a bit on the Dracula-gloomy side, but he’s also breath-takingly handsome, and his deadly-dry wit keeps things lively. Unfortunately, when I got the news about the stolen fang, Onyx was nowhere to be found. I suspect his disappearance has something to do with our lover’s fight, but I can’t worry about that right now. I must solve this tooth mess. No one steals from my bloodsuckers. Will I find the Fang Hunter before more of my students lose their choppers? If I fail, and Fangsters is forced to close its doors, will my blackmailer carry out his threat and reveal my secret? What the Fang is the fourth book in Fangsters, Jo-Ann Carson’s Supernatural Suspense series. Witches, warlocks, werewolves, and monsters of all stripes are featured. It’s a fast-paced mystery, with a slow-burn romance, and an edge of humor designed to entertain you. It can easily be read as a standalone.
