"Chris Salvatore's debut novel is wildly funny, truly original, and very clever.
An insider's look at the book publicity game with a very twisted twist. Ms. Salvatore brings
new meaning to the book publicist's complaint, "an author from hell.""
- Nelson DeMille, #1 New York Times bestselling author
"Chris Salvatore is not your typical literary publicist. Her wacky sense of humor gets
the attention of producers and editors and her teflon exterior allows her to be undeterred in
the face of what little rejection she encounters. Salvatore sends anxious authors into interviews
with a sick joke of the day, making them forget about the grilling they're about to get.
As a blonde, I've grown particularly fond of the dumb blonde jokes. The number of bestsellers
Salvatore has produced makes her undeniably one of New York's top publicists
and hidden treasures.

"Book publicist Salvatore skewers the publishing industry and recent trends in
vampire fiction in this humorous debut...Salvatore demonstrates a thorough knowledge of
New York City, the publishing world and the best ways to blend paranormal romance and
chick lit...the relationship between Gia and Johnny is always enjoyable, making for a
fun, fast-paced read."

“Chris Salvatore makes a fantastic debut on the paranormal scene with this
fun and exciting novel.”

"Chris Salvatore has penned an amazing first novel that is a very unique look at
both the paranormal world as well as the publishing world. With dry wit and fantastic
gallows humor, Ms. Salvatore has introduced us to a cast of characters that is nothing short
of hilarious. The way they all interact is natural and relatable, even though most of them have 'otherworldly' issues. I have recently noticed how often I end a review with I want more, but
I must bow to my gluttony and do it again. Please, may I have more in this, ahem, 'vein'?"
- Serena, Fallen Angels Reviews
“Taking an amusing bite out of the urban paranormal trend of vampires,
werewolves and other supernatural species, Chris Salvatore provides an entertaining satire
that lampoons the underworld occupation of New York. The story line is fast-paced, filled
with action and stars a full blooded heroine and an anemic hero who ironically wants to serve
her (thank you Twilight Zone). Fans will enjoy this lighthearted satirizing of the latest publishing rage as Ms. Salvatore slices and dices the urban vampiric society affirming that even the
undead want to make it in Manhattan by taking a bite of the Big Apple.”
- Harriet Klausner Reviews
“This urban fantasy read has some great elements to it. The heroine being a publicist to supernatural authors writing fiction about what they know first hand is wonderfully creative.”
