Today is Halloween and like many of you it’s one of my favorite holidays. How can you not love a holiday where you have the opportunity to dress up, pretend you’re someone else and give yourself a free pass to load up on as much candy as you want? So I think it’s fitting to host author Cornelia Amiri as she celebrates her most recent release, Vampire Highland Fling, in her Dancing Vampire series!
The Dancing Vampire Series by Cornelia Amiri
Hot Scots and seductive vampires make fang-tastic characters for Halloween reads. That’s what you’ll find in the Dancing Vampire series. Seven sexy vampiric fey sisters, known as the baobhan sith, roam the Scottish Highlands looking for men.
In Scottish folklore, the baobhan sith (ba vawn shee) target handsome men on the road at night and dance with them until the men grow exhausted. The vampiric temptresses transform their long nails into talons and rake them across the men’s backs. Clawing at their victim’s skin, draining their blood, then drinking it.
But in Cornelia Amiri series, instead of attacking men, the seven sisters fall in love with the men they go after!
Now this is a series we can all sink our teeth in!
Book one- Dance Of The Vampires
One of Ian’s six brothers kicks over the stones of an ancient cairn, unknowingly freeing Sorcha and her six sisters from Underhill. The seven handsome Scots are enchanted by the voluptuous temptresses until they turn on the men. Ian captures Sorcha, giving his brothers a chance to escape. With the dark fey woman still in his grasp, Ian is saved by the rising sun.
Her sisters vanish with the light of dawn and Sorcha is trapped in the mortal realm. The seductress can’t resist Ian’s attentions as he stirs throbbing urges she’s never felt before. Ian is bewitched by the wild delights offered by this vampire siren. He can’t get enough of her. Still, her wicked sisters and his highland brothers want nothing more than to attack and kill each other. Will Sorcha and Ian’s sizzling passion prove strong enough to overcome the differences between the dark fey and humans?
Amazon Reader review – “This was a short hot story that stayed with me long after I read the book. I love the world Cornelia Amiri created introducing the fey in this series and can’t wait to read more!” reviewed by Lisa Corderio. Read an excerpt
Book two-Vampire Highland Fling
Murdina, a dark vampiric fey, hunts the Scottish Highlands for a man, but not for blood—Murdina wants love. She spots Cameron playing the bagpipes, and when a strong wind lifts his kilt, she takes a good look and decides he’s the one.
When Cameron meets a beautiful, mysterious woman who dances the Highland fling for him, his blood boils for her. Soon Murdina and Cameron are doing more than dancing. Wrapped in each other’s arms, they discover true love, but their time together is limited before Murdina’s fey sisters cross the portal to steal her back and probably kill him. Is their love strong enough to overcome the threat her sisters pose to Murdina’s heart and to Cameron’s life?
Amazon Reader review – “A short story that reads as a full novel. The characters are well defined and the plot does not leave you with a lot of unanswered questions.” Reviewed by M. Pollard
Book three – Ever So Bonnie A Vampire
Calin has had fantasies about the vampiric fey, Ever’s, warm, curvaceous body ever since they danced a year ago. When they meet again he waste no time in claiming and capturing her. Once the sun rises, Ever can’t leave the earthly realm and is bound by fey lore to the human, Calin. Though he has saved her from the sun, things get pretty hot in his arms. Thrust into the mortal realm, his love making excites her like no fey man’s ever has but she’s consumed with the vow she made to her sisters to not leave them for a mortal man. She fights her feelings for Calin and seeks help from goddess Morrigan.
The goddess has feelings of her own for the tall, muscular mortal so she frees Ever to return Underhill. It isn’t until Ever’s back with her sisters that she realizes her heart is still held captive by Calin. When Calin spurns Morrigan’s attentions, the goddess’s lust turns to vengeance. With Ever out of his reach, Underhill, and a goddess shape shifting into different beasts to hunt and kill him, Calin McDuff must risk his life and fight all odds to be with the woman he loves.

Thank you so much!
Thanks to everyone for the wonderful comments. Sherry and Juilianne are the winners of my contest and I’ve sent each eBooks of the winners Dance Of The Vampires and Vampire Highland Fling. Congratulations to them both.
HIghland vampires! Okay now my interest is really piqued.
Unfortunately, I didn’t really get a chance to come up with anything. Halloween came around so fast. Wasn’t Easter just last week?
Thank you for sharing your giveaway with my readers, Cornelia. Wishing you many sales!
Sherry, thank you so much for your comment. I also love vampires. I’m in the same situation you’re in. I’m sick and just staying in. Stretched out on the sofa with my blanket. I have my Kleenex, cough drops and honey tea on the coffee table as I watch Halloween shows and movies on TV. I don’t even feel like writing but I’ll be back to it soon. I hope you feel better soon, Sherry.
I love vampires. I’m not dressing up this year. I’ve been sick and am just staying home a sitting around.

Thank you for your comment Millicent. A zombie is a perfect costume and I’m so glad you’re putting your own costume together. Most of the costumes at the stores are awful. My son is a grocery manager at a Wholes Food Store and on the weekend they had zombie day and the workers dressed up like zombies. I thought that was so neat.
I’m going as a zombie and not one of those Slut-O-Ween thingies stores foist on women.
Vampires have a certain allure that’s unmistakable. They’re supernatural bad boys who have absolutely nothing to lose. And yet, if you tangle with one the same can’t be said of you. Or maybe its just the fact they suck. LOL
Thank you so much for your comment. Armenia, the sexy vamp with pink hair sounds like a fabulous costume. Have fun!
I’m going as a sexy vamp with pink hair. And, of course, stilettos. I’ll bring flats for later because I know I won’t last in those high heels.
Looking forward to tonight and with all the monsters, ghouls, and vamps. Happy Halloween!!
