Happy Hour at Casa Dracula by Martha Acosta


Happy Hour at Casa Dracula by Martha Acosta from Simon & Schuster, Inc.

Description

Latina Ivy League grad Milagro de Los Santos can’t find her place in the world or a man to go with it. Then one night, at a book party for her pretentious ex-boyfriend, she meets an oddly attractive man. After she is bitten while kissing him, she falls ill and is squirreled away to his family’s estate to recover.

Vampires don’t exist in this day and age — or do they? As Milagro falls for a fabulously inappropriate man, she finds herself caught between a family who has accepted her as one of their own and a shady organization that refuses to let the undead live and love in peace.

A Latina, Ivy league alumni, vampire? Any one read this yet?
