So for anyone interested ..

She writes urban fantasy's - more like Kim Harrison - her main character is a witch and her vampires are not shiny but probably not as dark as those in Midnight Mass ...
I read the first version and a couple of the following novels and liked them. She did tell me she was re-writing and changing the plot so I have not read this version yet ...
Let me know what ya think
