Blood and books and swords and flamethrowers. And one librarian, in over her head.


How did I get here: covered in blood and holding a sword I can't use?


It all started when the dark and mysterious stranger (he wasn't that tall) showed up at my children's reading hour. Of course I noticed him. I'd been single (and bored) for longer than I care to admit. Me, I'm Anushka (Noosh) Rosetti, head librarian.


He turned out to be a vampire. And not just any vampire: Vlad Dracula. Although he goes by another name, these days, and he says he's changed his violent ways. He definitely seemed more of a lover than a fighter. At first.


In a whirlwind of passion, I made a crucial but impulsive decision: share blood with him a third time, and give up normal human society forever, making my life among the "am'r"-that's what the vampires call themselves.


The whirlwind just keeps spinning faster. Before I know it, I'm at an am'r summit meeting-and then, abducted by Vlad's oldest enemy, who's hoping to use me to undo all of my new family's plans to save am'r society from tearing itself apart.


I thought I was just going to archive some ancient books, but now somehow I have to keep myself from being used as a pawn by the craziest bad guy ever, escape back to the good guys (and I'm not sure how "good" they really are) across a desert (I don't even know what country I'm in!) and not be killed in the process. I don't know how I will survive the next five minutes, never mind save my beloved's life, too...


Blood Ex Libris is the first book in a fresh and unique dark fantasy series mixing horror, history, and blood-soaked passion featuring a snarky librarian in the story of a life that unfolds in unexpected ways from humdrum to death-defying thrills, from Middle America to the middle of an unknown desert, surrounded by sword-fighting, explosions, and the ultimate drama of immortals meeting death.
