Gwen’s review of Vampire Sunrise (Delilah Street, Book 3) by Carole Nelson Douglas Urban fantasy released by Pocket 24 Nov 09 I’m a huge fan of urban fantasy.  I love it when authors cut loose and create a whole new reality that’s only loosely based on the “real” reality.  It’s an opportunity to really explore [...]
