Thrain Must Convince His Lover that It's OK to Be Part Vampire

NIGHT BITES by Nina Bangs was a fun, quirky paranormal romance. The sequel to MASTER OF ECSTASY, NIGHT BITES is about a vampire named Thrain who has tracked down the missing daughter of his best friend and now faces the daunting task of convincing her to go home. This is daunting because 1) Thrain wants Cindy more than anything and 2) Cindy will freak out when she finds out her father's a vampire. I enjoyed this book immensely. For one, Cindy owns an inn that caters to people who want to believe in the supernatural - without ever realizing that real werewolves, vampires, wizards, and witches stay at her inn as guests. The chaos that these guests cause is pretty cute. For another, two of the guests are cosmic troublemakers. One's a fat kitty with super powers; another is a sexy lady on a mission to cause sexual mayhem. Of course, she fully intends to make sure Cindy and Thrain hook up. With its nutty characters and "spirited" setting, NIGHT BITES makes for an entertaining read. I think Thrain and Cindy are a hot couple with good chemistry and repartee. I also like Thrain's ability to implant memories in people - his space alien cow memory was hysterical. If you like whimsical supernatural romances, NIGHT BITES is the book for you! Make sure you read it's prequel, MASTER OF ECSTASY, first so that you know who Cindy's father is and why Thrain is so devoted to him. Both are cute books. Highly recommended. ***Also look for WICKED NIGHTS, NIGHT GAMES, and THE PLEASURE MASTER by Nina Bangs.***

Yahoo at the Woo Woo

Nina Bangs always comes up with a unique premise and Night Bites is no exception. Cindy Harper is 700 years old and still looks and feels like a twenty-something. A freak of nature? Or could there be others out there like her? She opens the Woo Woo Inn in the woods of New Jersey. Tales of the Jersey Devil lure her there and she hopes one of the weird and wacky guests who descend on her will have the answer she's so desperate for. Enter Thrain Davis, a vampire and friend of her father's. He's hot, irresistable and has all the answers. Cindy and Thrain's adventures are fun and the love scenes sizzle. Sparkle Stardust and Ganymede, cosmic troublemakers, are back to keep stirring the pot. Don't miss this latest in Bangs' sexy adventures.

Worth sinking your teeth into

This new offering from Nina Bangs follows up on her book Master of Ecstasy. If you haven't read it yet, don't worry. This books just as good as a stand alone. In fact, it's better than it's predecessor. For those who have read Ecstasy this story picks up with Thrain, our last hero's buddy, tracking down his pal's long lost daughter. As he shows up to explain her heritage and ask her to meet her dad, wiping out his guilt of her having gone missing in the first place, our funny cosmic trouble makers show up in disguise to assure sparks start flying between our hero and his new lady. The modern setting is perfect for the story line and the dialogue is very witty. Ms. Bangs is starting to sound more like Mary Janice Davidson or Katie McCallister for those of you who are fans. It's a lighthearted read but at 339 entertaining pages it's definitly worth the price. Hints at the next book in this series are also revealed with the unveiling of a new alpha vampire charcter. All said it's worth sinking your teeth into!

Nina Bangs delights again!

Well, Nina Bangs is back after a wee absence. When we last her was Master of Ecstasy (Dorchester Publishing, just reprinted so if you missed it before grab it now!) Night Bites takes up from Master of Ecstasy. Ganymede and Sparkle Stardust, those ole time-traveling troublemakers are up to their old tricks again. When we last saw them it was 1785 and Ganymede looked like Paul Bunyon crossed with a Highland and poor sex-loving Sparkle Stardust was stuck in the body of a cat - a talking cat mind you. Ganymede was running a time-travel come to an ancient Highland castle vacation business. Only one problem, the owner of the castle one sexy vampire named, Darach Mackenzie, was still about and very unhappy the cosmic troublemakers were doing their thing in his ancestral abode. This time the table is turned. Ganymede is stuck in the form of a cat, and Sparkle Stardust is up to her old mischief making. It's 2005 and she wants to cause trouble for Cindy Harper and Thrain Davis. This book is a delight from start to finish. I laughed from page one to the very in. It's sly, sexy and utterly a howl, showing Bangs at her very best. Cindy Harper is the owner of the Woo Woo Inn in New Jersey. She opened the Inn six months before catering to two types of clients - the delusional or the curious. She'd redone the Victorian manor, a la Adams Family, and intentionally played to the souls seeking off the beaten path. She loves technology, because the past is something that should stay...in the past. She has werewolves, witches and vamps galore as customers. Though Cindy does wonder why it's always were-wolves and not wereducks or werebunnines! Even so, when Thrain Davis crosses her threshold she know the Highland vamp is not delusion or curious! Sparkle is now calling herself Prada Smith and with her `pet' cat Trojan, they are troublemaking cupids, looking to cause mischief in Cindy's well order, albeit unusual life. And Thrain is the perfect temptation a.k.a. bait for Sparkle's impish fun. This stands alone, but it's so much fun when you combine it with Master of Ecstasy (a Reviewers International Organization Award of Excellence Finalist for 2004). A must for all Bangs fans. Not a fan? Try her...you will be!

I Loved This Book!!!!!!

I really loved this book. It made me laugh out loud as well as shed a few tears. Cindy was a terrific, funny and sensitive heroine and Thrain was luscious and very likeable. I enjoyed seeing characters from previous books. Ganemede, Sparkle, Darach, Blythe. What a great idea to use Cosmic Troublemakers to move the story along and the vampire adventures are also great. Each character had a wicked sense of humor and great sex appeal. The sex scenes were HOT and fun!!! You might enjoy this book even more if you read Darach's story first in Master of Ecstasy. Then you will know all about Thrain, why he is looking for Cindy and what happened to him and Darach that almost destroyed them. The role Ganemede and Sparkle played in that book will help you understand them better and what their goals are. Ms. Bangs goes to great lengths to bring the reader up to date in this book and assumes you have not read the previous one, but it is so much more fun to read it all in story form. Buy both books. You won't be sorry.
