It's been three months since musician Miranda Grey became a vampire and married David Solomon, Prime of the South. As Queen, Miranda must quickly come to terms with her new role and learn how to negotiate the treacherous waters of Signet politics, inevitably making dangerous enemies along the way. As if complicated vampire affairs and a rising music career weren't enough, an enigmatic and powerful force from David's past appears, leaving a wake of chaos and uncertainty to disrupt the pair's fledgling relationship.
Praise for "Queen of Shadows"
"Sylvan's powerful debut is packed with startling action, sensual romance, and delightfully nerdy vampires...Sylvan's compelling take on vampirism, her endearing characters, and a complex, unabashedly feminist plot will have readers hungry for a sequel."
-"Publishers Weekly" (starred review)
""Queen of Shadows" pulled me in...Dianne Sylvan's rich, dark, sexy re- imagined Austin is filled with people I want to visit again and again...Sylvan's got voice, doesn't miss a beat, and rocks it all the way to the last note. Sit down. Shut up. And enjoy the show. It's intense, dark, sexy, with just the right touch of humor. Looking for a new addiction Go no further."
-Devon Monk, author of "Magic on the Hunt"
"Grabbed me on the first page and didn't let go. Miranda, the heroine, is vulnerable and gutsy, with magical abilities even she doesn't suspect. Vampire David Solomon is as powerful and heroic as he is deliciously seductive.
Dianne Sylvan is the author of The Circle Within and The Body Sacred. She resides in Austin, Texas, with two neurotic cats.
