UNDEAD AND UNEASY - Mary Janice Davidson

Betsey became the prophesied vampire queen in book one of the series, UNDEAD AND UNWED and has led her fans on a merry dance ever since. Book six here with UNDEAD AND UNEASY trundles out more light-hearted escapades of the reluctant vampire queen with an author's promise that the readers might be shocked at the turns in fortune of Betsey and her various sidekicks. The wedding of Betsey and her vampire man Sinclair has been dragged out over a few books now and needs to be finished, soon! Hopefully in the next book. There doesn't seem to be much else the author could do with her smart-mouthed heroine but Davidson manages to throw in one last possible plot thread regardless.
As with all the Betsey novels, readers need to check their perception of morality and reality at the door along with their possible hopeful wishes of seeing a lightly crafted story of blood-sucking mayhem. As with it's predecessors, UNDEAD AND UNEASY is easily digestible vampire chick-lite, with nothing to pile on and nothing to feel guilty about afterwards.

BOOK DETAILS
BLURB
Weddings are never easy. But when you're Vampire Queen Betsy Taylor, they can become downright deadly...
In the days leading up to The Big Day, Vampire Queen Betsy Taylor seems to have a full house - and the wedding guests have yet to arrive. Along with her human buddies, there's a ghost, a werewolf, and a Fiend crashing at her place. And though her fiancé, Vampire King Eric Sinclair, conveniently disappears when the conversation turns to seating charts and flower arrangements, he does manage to make his oh-so-sexy presence known at other moments.
Betsy knows the next few weeks won't be smooth sailing - but she never expects just what's in store for her. Cold feet are no surprise, especially with an undead groom. But when Sinclair truly goes missing - and not just to avoid wedding preparations - along with most of her friends and loved ones, Betsy is frantic. Alone and afraid for the fate of everyone she loves, Betsy can't trust anyone as she tries to find them and whoever is behind all the disappearances. And what happens next will shake the foundation of the vampire world forever.
