Book three in the Spider Trilogy of vampire thrillers! As a vampire with a penchant for fresh human blood, Spider has done a lot of bad things. Now it's time to right some of those wrongs, and Spider has spent the past few years of his immortal life doing just that: helping those who can't help themselves. And maybe, just maybe, getting on God's good side. Oh, and falling in love with a girl named Parker Cole. A mortal girl, of all people. Now when Parker's cousin, Dylan, gets cursed with the mother of all curses, it's up to Spider to save the day...and in the process help a necrophiliac ghost find true love, stop the Devil at his own game, and, if all goes according to plan, live happily ever after with the girl of his dreams. All in a night's work for Spider and the gang...

Thrilling and laugh-out-loud funny, Bad Blood begins the epic tale of Spider, a vampire vigilante who's part Edward and part James Bond... only not as moody and not as British. When teenager Parker Cole approaches the dark and mysterious new student at night school, she figures he's just another goth wannabe. Little does she know how wrong she is... Spider is an old vampire in a young body. He's done some bad things in his time and figures it's time to finally do some good in this world. After all, he has to live with himself for all eternity... and who wants to live with a bloodthirsty douchebag till the end of time? Turns out Parker Cole has big problems-two of them, in fact. Her father runs a bizarre cult at the foot of Mount Shasta, and her best friend has been drained of all blood. Even crazier, the two problems are somehow connected. Thanks to his new "people are not food" mantra, Spider agrees to help, and heads down to Mount Shasta for answers. Mystery and mayhem await. Oh, and a demon or two. And bodies. Lots and lots of bodies. Just the way Spider likes it. "Bad Blood is fast, hilarious and sexy. Rain, Nicholson and Night just might have created the coolest vampire since Kiefer Sutherland. The Mount Shasta setting is dreamy. The cult is deliciously creepy. And Spider is as sexy as they come. I was pressing the eReader's 'forward' button so fast that I broke it. Let's hope we hear more from Spider."-H.P. MALLORY, #1 bestselling author of Fire Burn and Cauldron Bubble ★★★★★ "I fell in love with Spider.
