In the sequel to Jane Bites Back, vampire Jane is prepping for her wedding. However, her future mother in law is a vampire hunter and will stop at nothing to make sure the wedding doesn't take place. In addition, Jane constantly fears the return of Charlotte Bronte's hovering menace, so a honeymoon/wedding in Europe sounds like just what the doctor ordered. Jane thought this would make things easier, but she didn't realize it would just bring her secrets closer to the surface: what's the difference between trying to protect someone and just lying to them? Finally, Jane's quest for happily ever after becomes a quest for a sacred artifact that could alter her future.

Fans of Jane Austen, vampires, and comedy should love JANE VOWS VENGEANCE. There are enough literary references to make fans of the classics happy (a reference to the concept that after a while, everyone sleeps with Byron had me snorting in my coffee), but enough twists and turns to entrance those readers who love the old whodunnit murder mysteries.

Book Summary

How will Jane Austen break the news to her fiancé that she's not only undead, but also a two-hundred-plus-year-old literary icon? In sleepy upstate New York, Jane's wedding preparations have taken on a bloodsucking intensity. So when Walter suggests they ditch it all and combine their marriage and honeymoon with a house tour of Europe, Jane jumps at the chance to flee Lord Byron and the lingering threat of Charlotte Brontë. But to Jane's chagrin, more than one secret from her past is about to resurface. From an Agatha Christie–style murder mystery to a wedding interrupted by the ghosts of the Princes in the Tower to a shocking revelation about Walter's mother, nothing about this trip is less than pure mayhem. And when a chance encounter puts Jane on the trail of a legendary device reputed to restore a vampire's human soul, will our beloved heroine finally be able to vow her love and devotion—or will a vampire hunter's vengeance drive a stake through her eternal life?
