A dark paranormal romance/urban fantasy with sex, mystery and humour -- the ultimate vampire chick lit!

Kismet Knight is a young psychologist with a growing clinical practice, and she's always looking for something to give her the edge in her chosen career. When her new client turns out to be a Goth teenager who desperately wants to become a vampire, Kismet is inspired to become the vampire shrink, offering her services to people who believe they are undead. Kismet herself, as a scientist, knows it's hokum, but she's looking at it in a purely psychoanalytic light, already imagining the papers she's going to write on this strange subculture.

That's until she meets the leader of a vampire coven, a sexy, mysterious man who claims to be a powerful 800-year-old vampire, and she is pulled into a whirlwind of inexplicable events that start her questioning everything she once believed about the paranormal.

      Hilburn (Undead in the City) launches a series about a psychologist who treats vampires, but drowns the intriguing premise in a cliché-strewn retread of good vampires clashing with bad vampires over possession of a desirable human female. When Denver shrink Dr. Kismet Knight takes on a young goth named Midnight who is mesmerized by a vampire coven, the stage is set for an examination of the “scary occult sensationalism” of the undead. What unfolds, however, is an overwrought love triangle of Kismet, smokin’ hot vampire leader Devereux, and Alan Stevens, an FBI agent investigating recent killings in the area. As Midnight describes Kismet as a cross between Megan Fox and Angelina Jolie, Devereux performs a super-sexy dance number as a protective spell, and warring covens provide a purely conventional backdrop for vampire orgies, it’s never clear whether Hilburn is satirizing the genre, mocking its readers, or just missing the mark. Agent: Robert Gottlieb, Trident Media Group.
