After a near-fatal adventure in another world, Samantha Moon is ready for her first real vacation in nearly a decade.
With a little money in her pocket from the sale of a mansion left to her by her vampire sire, Sam sets her sights on a whirlwind European tour.
First stop: A castle in Ireland.
It’s all fun and games until a dark shadow races across her hotel suite and something evil watches her son from an ancient suit of armor...
Samantha Moon comes to the realization that her trip to the Emerald Isle is going to be anything but relaxing.
After all, something wicked this way comes...
What Readers are saying:
★★★★★ “Vacation at last! Sam is finally getting a much need vacation with the family and Allison and of course Kingsley! They are starting their vacation in Ireland staying in the most beautiful castle. As you guess with this bunch, nothing stays calm for long. You will love this series; it sort of reminds me of the first Sam books way back when. Looking forward to what they get into during their next stop.” —Amazon review
★★★★★ “Keep them coming! I have never been so impressed with a writer. I read through his stories so fast because I cannot put them down, I re-read them all over and over while I wait impatiently for the next. Samantha Moon is my favorite of all time! I hope her stories never end.” —Amazon review
★★★★★ “Awesome! Very adventurous short story. Of course, I loved every single page turn. This story has definitely become a favorite of mine. Thanks J.R. Rain for sharing this world with fans like me.” —Amazon review
★★★★★ “Another great Samantha Moon story! Samantha has decided to take everyone on a great European vacation. The first stop on the vacation is Ireland. She can’t wait to relax and spend time with everyone. While in the room of their hotel room, Samantha sees an entity that feels evil. Samantha knows the gang will have to take care of the problem. This was nice look at everyone in this series at once. I really enjoyed this short story. Looking forward to the next one.” —Amazon review
★★★★★ “Vacation Time! Finally! Sam is sooo ready for a vacation! Sam, Kingsley, Allison, Tammy and Anthony are going to have a two month European vacay—and they’are going to have fun if it kills them. That is, until they come into contact with a Banshee and must combine forces to close a demon portal. It’s a short read, but very enjoyable. Always love Sam and the gang.” —Amazon review
★★★★★ “Samantha Moon is my favorite book character ever, and I am so glad she gets to go on vacation and kick some mythical butt along the way. Since these short stories are mini installments to the Vampire for Hire series, back stories or character backgrounds are not needed for the Samantha Moon fan base. I can’t wait to start reading the second story right now!” —Amazon review

However, these gentle giants don't quite rule the Loch; indeed, something bigger does. Something nasty, huge and hungry. It's going to take all of the gang's combined skills to not...

After crossing paths with fire imps in Paris, Samantha Moon and the gang continue their whirlwind European tour... Next stop: Prague. Dealing with Anthony's mind-numbing "Czech" jokes is one thing...but dealing with magic-wielding vampires is something else entirely. It begins after a few peaceful days in Prague. The sites are awe-inspiring. But the sounds not so much. Especially the banging at night. And then the screaming.
