Series: Undead Series by Mary Janice Davidson


Ratings: * * * * * (out of 5 *)
Genre: Paranormal Romance (With a bit of chic lit)

For light-heartened romances with a whole lot of comedy, this is a good series to collect. A vampire queen's tale might be cliche for paranormal romance but nothing is funnier than cliches in Betsy's world.

Meet Queen Betsy. Born Elizabeth Taylor -as in!- and died waking up as the queen of the vampire world. She's Undead and quite frankly unwed. She's dealing with paranormal weirdness that comes with being queen. while shopping for Manolos. Betsy is joined by her housemates: Jessica -a rich black woman and Betsy's closets friend and landlady. There's Marc, a gay guy. He's a doctor with suicidal tendencies. There's Eric - Betsy's fiance and vampire king. Tina - Eric's bodyguard/assistant. Then there's George the Fiend -a ghoul living in the basement.
Later in the series they'll be joined by Laura - the devil's daughter and Betsy's half sister, and Antonia - a werewolf that can't turn werewolf, but she's got other special talents of her own.

Life in the mansion of the vampire queen is never dull and the threat to her royal highness might be serious but they all deal with it lightheartedly. It's a wonderful series full of colorful characters. A must-collect and must read for Paranormal Romance Series Collectors.
