Publisher's Summary

Six years ago federal agent Samantha Moon was the perfect wife and mother, your typical soccer mom with the minivan and suburban home. Then the unthinkable happens, an attack that changes her life forever. And forever is a very long time for a vampire.

Now in Vampire Games, Samantha Moon is hired to look into the suspicious death of a popular fighter—and quickly discovers there’s far more to the story than meets the eye. As she uncovers clues into the boxer’s past, she will come face-to-face with something unexpected...and something only whispered about. Additionally, Samantha must confront the growing supernatural powers of those closest to her—and a betrayal that will rock her world.

It Packs A Punch!

This is a really good series, and I love Samantha! Not only is she a mom, but a vampire, and a Private Investigator, who does not hold back any punches. I love her sarcasm!

This is one of the best paranormal series from Kindle Unlimited, and I love being able to borrowing these audiobooks! When I'm the mood for a good detective story, I know I can turn to the Vampire for Hire series for a great read/listen.

Dina Perlman does a great job narrating this story, and I loved how she performed Samantha's internal dialogue.

A good story but too short

This is a very quick read. Everytime I finish a book in this series, I tell myself that it will be the last one. Of course it's a lie. This is a great series and the narrator does a great job giving a voice to the characters.My only complaint is that it's too short. He should combine two books together. It's worth a credit and the the time. I recommend the series.

Samantha Just Gets More Interesting

Any additional comments?

Samantha Moon's vampire abilities continue to grow and the addition of the medallion protection from the end of the last book has made her life much easier. Some new revelations concerning her children and a big step for Fang. Ishmael interferes and sets up Kingsley in ways that are devastating to Sam who was just opening up to him. Perhaps not fast enough.

Another good but too short book.

J R Rain

I jus have to say, I love these books!! I can't listen to just one. I found myself getting one right after the other. I just wish they had a bundle price.

My favorite paranormal series

Another great book in my favorite series about soccer mom/private detective Samantha Moon. Samantha is called in to investigate the death of an up and coming young boxer who dies after being punched in a boxing match. The twist is that it's the dead boxer's opponent who hires Sam, swearing that he did not hit his opponent hard enough to kill him. Sam's personsl life also goes through major upheavals. The book introduces a new character of a fallen angel. There are critical turning points in Sam's relationship with the two men in her life Fang and Kingsley. There is also a change in her relationship with and between her children. All in all, this book presented a huge development in the story arc.

Love um

I'm at this level and I love all the books so far. They make you mad, sad, happy, and sometimes wanting to just kill someone. Keep them coming.

One book in two

This book was short, as was the last, and the fact that they are not ONE book is a cynical way of getting more money from the reader/listener. I understand that authors want to make money, but this is an increasing trend. For goodness sake, write one book and charge more for it! Having said this, I enjoyed listening but the irritation of being short changed constantly overwhelmed by enjoyment.
