Vegas is wild. A vampire in Vegas? Even wilder.

From Vampire in Vegas

I imagined. Leo’s arm in Robbie’s mouth, Tessa rubbing his chest as I nibbled Robbie’s ear, loving the purring noise he makes as he drinks. Watching two erections strain against jeans.
Watching Leo suddenly push Tessa to the floor and shove her skirt over her hips as Robbie dragged me into his lap and unzipped, cock on display right before it sheathed in me.
Knowing they were watching.
Knowing we were watching them.

Charlotte is an average girl. She goes to NYU Pine Ridge, she loves her mother, is obsessively close to her best friend, Tessa, and has a stupidly hot boyfriend, Robert, who would kill for her.
Literally.
Tessa is the shy one, the quiet one, the smart one. She dates the drummer in a band, but no one would mistake the petite redhead for a groupie. No one can believe that Charlotte talked her into heading to Vegas for their 21st birthdays, which happen to fall in the same month.
As long as the vacation doesn’t fall on a full moon, everything’ll be fine. Perfectly normal.
Except that Tessa is a powerful witch, dating a werewolf. Charlotte is dating a vampire. And Charlotte- she’s actually not all that normal.
Their vacation in Vegas won’t be, either.
A quartet of friends will find their unique abilities give them a new passionate twist to the old adage, “What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.”

“I have demon blood. I mentioned that, right?I’m not evil. I’m not soulless. Demons have souls unless they sell, trade, or give them away. Many do.”—Vampire in Vegas

 

“Vampire in Vegas” was originally a trilogy of short stories, released separately as “Vampire in Vegas,” “Vampire in Vegas: Quartet,” and “Vampire in Vegas: Third Act.” It’s being reissued as a single novel which is probably the way it was meant to be. It reads better if presented as a three-act story.

 

Principale writes a lean bit of erotica—a tale about four very good friends and their celebratory trip to Vegas—that quickly turns into an exploration of how far you can take a friendship before it (or you) turns into something different.

 

The main character is Charlotte, a quarter demon and her friends from school, Robbie, a vampire, Tessa, a witch, and Leo, a werewolf. Charlotte and Robbie are a couple, and Tessa and Leo are also.

 

Their sexually adventurous story is told first-person, from Charlotte’s point-of-view, which is generally under or on top of Robbie. There’s plenty of sex in “Vampire in Vegas,” but it is erotica, after all, and an integral part of the surprise ending. Suffice it to say, what happens in Vegas may, or may not, stay there.

 

A four-star review of a story about what happens when you push a friendship to new limits and learn something you never, ever, expected.
