Now, all three books in my erotic horror trilogy, The Darkness and the Night, are available in trade paperback! About The Darkness and the Night I wrote book one, Blood and Coffee, with Homer's Odyssey in mind--a dark, vampire's odyssey that would take the character to Hell and back in her quest for the HEA, a story arc that would continue throughout most of the trilogy. The twisted romance between Karen and Billy is very primal, with neither experienced enough to understand the difference between love and lust, a lesson that comes hard for Karen. Book two, Cosmic Orgasm, is all about Karen's self empowerment as a woman. Karen takes charge of her life, despite all she has suffered. Although still on the run, she makes finally makes her stand, and finds true love along the way. The third book, Twins of Darkness, is a little different, as it follows the first eighteen years of Karen's twin children's lives, while she and her lover hide out in the jungles of suburbia. To achieve this, I divided the story into four parts: Vampire. Mommy. covers the first several months following the twins' birth; The Innocent One covers them as young children; A Family Affair takes place during their adolescent years, and The Awakening occurs when the twins are in their late teens. Karen tries so hard to give her kids a normal life, despite her vamipirism--unfortunately neither of the twins is anything close to "normal," which results in some very unforseen consequences.

Phoebe Jordan of Talk About My Favorite Authors just released reviews for the first two books in my The Darkness and the Night series, giving Blood and Coffee 3.5 Open Books and Cosmic Orgasm 4 Open Books. My thanks to Phoebe, who delved into horrorica--not her genre of choice--on a chance, after reading and enjoying my romantic, erotic sci-fi novel, Lust in Space. I think these reviews are very fair and accurate, and I am happy to share them now with you. From Phoebe's review for Blood and Coffee: I had a good time reading this novel because it was different from many of the novels that I usually read. I both liked and disliked Karen because even though she is a strong female character there are times that I really thought she could have done things differently if she wanted to. This also goes the same for Billy the vampire who turns Karen because seems like a nice loving guy but then he shows his true colors as a psyhco. There were some very steamy sex scenes between Karen and Billy that I really enjoyed because they have this attraction to one another even though at first Karen hates Billy for turning her. I also felt kind of creeped out when I read some the scary suspense scenes throughout the novel and I should expect that since it is a dark horror erotic novel with vampires. I enjoyed reading the novel though sometimes I wondered who was good and who was evil throughout the novel because sometimes Karen seemed like she was headed towards being evil while somtimes Billy was headed towards actually being good. Towards the end of the novel I was really looking forward to reading the next The Darkness & the Night series to find out what else is in store for Karen and Billy after the way this novel ended. I give this book 3.5 Open Books Read the full review here. From Phoebe's review for Cosmic Orgasm: This book is much more exciting and scarier than the first book because now I have a sense of who is evil and who isn't unlike the first book. I like Karen more in this novel because she has come to accept that she is a vampire and doesn't have to kill a human in order to survive. There were some pretty scary and heartbreaking scenes in this book that I enjoyed reading about because it really helped me understand Karen and even Billy more than I did before. I finished the book much quicker than the first and by the time I read the last sentence in the last chapter I really wanted Lisa Lane's next and conclusion to her The Darkness & the Night series to be published already so I could read it. I give this book 4 Open Books Read the full review here.
