Short description

Joseph O'Reily secretly wants to be a superhero. When he goes to a local pub and meets a beautiful redhead, she makes him feel like one. Then strange things start happening, and he realizes she's done something to change him. Forever.

Extended description

Like every other geek alive, Newfoundland native Joseph O’Reily secretly wants to be a superhero. At thirteen he fantasized about being a vampire, and ten years later he’s still fantasizing – but mostly about a beautiful redheaded woman who has eyes only for him. The one thing different about Joseph’s adult fantasy is that, amazingly, it comes true one night when he goes to a local university pub.

But when strange things start happening afterward, Joseph quickly learns that not all dreams should come true.

Cassandra has plans for him – forever. And those plans don’t include daytime activities. An animal lover and recent vegetarian, Joseph wrestles with all the weird changes he’s experiencing after his encounter with Cassandra.

At thirteen he fantasized about being a vampire, and ten years later he’s still fantasizing – but mostly about a beautiful redheaded woman who has eyes only for him. The one thing different about Joseph’s adult fantasy is that, amazingly, it comes true one night when he goes to a local university pub. Cassandra Snow, literally the woman of his dreams, invites him to her place for an evening of personal pleasure. Of course he’s not going to say no. But when strange things start happening afterward, Joseph quickly learns that not all dreams should come true.

Cassandra has plans for him – forever. And those plans don’t include daytime activities. An animal lover and recent vegetarian, Joseph wrestles with all the weird changes he’s experiencing after his encounter with Cassandra. Eternal youth and amazing power come at a price that is perhaps higher than he can afford. The constant hunger for blood and the secrets Cassandra harbors test his resolve and his mental and physical limits. And then there’s the fact that a two-hundred-year-old vampire is after his head – literally.

Joseph’s night vision improves dramatically, giving him a glimpse of the darker side of the world and the terrible evil of vampires who walk among humans. As he tries to balance his regular life with the new reality of his vampire existence, he is determined to hold onto his personal convictions and what he values most – his humanity.

Review by: H Stone on July 22, 2012 :
Ok people. The old adage "don`t judege a book by its cover" has never been more applicable. The title and cover art of this novel are, well, horrid. But the book itself is a fun read!

The author gives his own touches to the large cannon of vampire fiction, which is refreshing. O'Keefe's writing style has a nice flow and the historical elements add a depth to the storyline giving it legs to travel on should he decide to continue following these characters in other novels.

This is a great summer book for sunny afternoons at the beach and relaxing on the deck with a cold beverage! So go get it....just don`t look at the cover.
