"A campy, seductive and fun vampire romance!"
Dixie LePage has just found out that she's the sole
heir of her two great aunts who lived in Bringham, England.
Her grandmother had broken from her family when she married
and moved to America. She always called her
sisters "witches"
but Dixie didn't know she meant that literally. Dixie decides to travel to Bringham to see for
herself just what she's inherited. When she arrives, a
smarmy man tries to pick her up at the airport. She
discourages him and finally finds a place where she can
rent a small car reasonably. Then she gets the run around
while trying to not only see Orchard House but trying to
fix it up in anticipation of either living there or selling
it. Sebastian Caughleigh, her great-aunt's lawyer, does
everything in his power to discourage Dixie from even
staying. He has a hidden agenda going on that he most
especially doesn't want Dixie finding out about. It could
ruin everything he's ever strived for. His nephew James as
well as several women in the neighborhood are all in on
trying to discourage Dixie from wanting to stay. Then Dixie meets Christopher Marlowe. As she gets
to know him, she finds that she's falling in love with
him. What she doesn't know is that Christopher is "THE"
Christopher Marlowe and he's a 400-year-old vampire. What
in world will Dixie do when she figures out this little
detail? This campy, seductive and downright fun vampire
novel was an irresistible read. I simply could not put it
down once I started reading it. I thoroughly enjoyed it
and cannot wait to read the sequel to this most intriguing
book!

SummaryVampires . . . blackmail . . . and murder in a peaceful
English village . . .
Dixie LePage didn't expect life in an English village to be
exactly like South Carolina, but nothing prepared her for
what she found in the quiet Surrey village of Bringham.
She loved the house she inherited, and finding herself a
rich woman was an unexpected bonus. She enjoyed making
friends and meeting new and eccentric people--after all,
what else would she expect by moving to England?
As Dixie learned more about her family history, she was
startled to hear her deceased great-aunts referred to as
witches. Discovering the blackmail and murders horrified
Dixie. The attempts on her life angered and terrified her.
But it was falling in love with a 400-year-old Vampire--a
not-so-dead Christopher Marlowe--that finally taught her
the real meaning of culture shock.
