Three days ago, Claire was a wife, a mother, and very much alive… then the music called for her. Claire has one goal for the conference—to land a few whales so that her boss will give her a badly needed raise. She pitches and prays while courting the music industry elite until her plans are derailed by hotness-in-high-heels. Bette is at the conference on a mission—to find a human with untapped talents that she can mold and control. Bette uses her cursed violin to lure Claire in with a haunting song, which unravels Claire’s life as her new talents emerge. To make matters worse, Claire is attracted to two unlikely people—Bette and her hunky associate, Gregor. Both can light Claire’s fire, but is either of them the only one? Unfortunately for Claire, life isn’t all song lyrics and seduction. Tied to darkness by blood and power, Claire must harness her abilities if she has any hope of returning home to her daughter and regaining her former life… if that’s what she really wants. Kill Me, the debut novel from author Alex Owens, is a quirky paranormal fantasy complete with music, magic, fangs and freaks. It is also the first in a planned series, with the second book due out by the Fall of 2012. Be forewarned, this is not your daughter’s paranormal.

After the disastrous business trip that ended her mortal life, all Claire wants to do is get her freakish talents and blood-lust (and let's be honest, regular ol' lust too) under control, so that she can be a good mom, hide her fangs and maybe try to coax her stripper-turned-nanny into wearing some actual clothes that won't make the local biddies fire up the gossip chain. Thanks to her Vampire Disability Fund, Claire just might get the boring life of her dreams after all. So what if two brothers (one hot, one decidedly jerkish) have moved into the only other house in her remote neck of the woods? And so what if she hasn't heard a peep out of her maker Bette or the other two members of The Triad? No news is good news, right? Oh, how wrong she is...

Claire is a Vampire, a Witch and a Mother... and she's finally met her match. Digging into her heritage and the Medici witch known as Venna wasn't a good idea, because it came back to bite Claire in a bad way. Now, with the lives of everyone she loves on the line, Claire must bring her A-game, or lose one of them forever. Her daughter, ex-husband, best friend, or one of her lovers; who will it be? Saving most of them is a long shot, even after combining her magical powers and Vamp abilities. But there's no way that Claire can save them all... Witch Me (Blood Chord Series), by Alex Owens, is the third book (and last planned book) in her sexy adult fantasy suspense series. Be forewarned, this is not your daughter's paranormal.
