Susan is 58-years-old and bored with life. Middle age is a daily drudge of sagging body parts and aches and pains. Her fervent prayer that she could somehow recapture her youth comes true one night during a chance encounter with a child-like vampire.
As soon as the other women in her family see the transformation they waste no time in sticking their necks out, hoping Susan will share this new-found fountain of youth.
Suddenly, this newly born group of hot-bodied vamps find themselves thrust into a world controlled by an ancient order of vampires. A world with rules, all of which the ladies pretty much break within hours of becoming immortals. And the little matter of the accidental epidemic of vamped out wildlife isn't exactly endearing them to the powers that be, either.
Amazon 5 star reviews:
A fresh take on the oft-bitten vampire milieu,
They're so Vein is a book that illustrates (hysterically) what happens when all
(except one) of the non-estrogen-producing members of one family suddenly find
themselves blood-suckers~~~Jeni Decker,
author, I Wish I Were Engulfed in Flames and the Dex Morneau series
Susan Stec's THE GRATEFUL UNDEAD: THEY'RE SO
VEIN, is a rip-snorting satire on all things vampiric and paranormal~~~Carlyle Clark, author, The Black Song Inside and The Apocalypse Gene
A unique take on all
things paranormal. It's refreshing to see an author take on what is now a very
popular genre and make it her own~~~Jeanne Bannon, author, Invisible
This book is a fun, quick read that's great for when you need a break from all the serious day to day stress~~DelSheree Gladden, author of The Destroyer Trilogy, the Twin Souls Saga, and Wicked Hunger
They're So Vein is a hilarious and irreverent
new twist on the paranormal/vampire romance genre~~~Overview, Barnes and Noble
Susan's budding romance is taking a back seat in book 2 of THE GRATEFUL UNDEAD series, and her sexy immortal lover, Marcus, is having none of it.
When
Rafael gifts JoAnn with an Earth-to-Abyss cellphone so she can
communicate with her sister, Susan soon finds out that JoAnn has gone
from servitude to concubine, and no longer wishes to come home.
In their attempt to retrieve JoAnn, THE GRATEFUL UNDEAD team ultimately finds themselves knee-deep in vamp critters, demons, rogues, and a host of new and colorful characters, when the mission takes them from their home in Florida to the streets of New Orleans.

And below, the biggest pain in Susan's ass, Christopher. In his own words.
When will Volume 4 be with us. I finished Volume 3 and -- dammit, cliffhanger! C'mon, Susan, I really like this series and can see at least a few more volumes in it.

Deletehahahaha I am working on it Julia. About 40% complete. I'll be posting a cover in a few weeks either here on my home page or on Facebook. It's called COFFIN FIT. What a mess! The girls are aging; Raphael has cursed them. Christopher is working Dorius and Susan. Marcus had to fly to Italy with the rest of the rogue hunters because... Um, sorry I almost got carried away! NO SPOILERS! Look for Coffin Fit to hit Amazon before spring--fingers crossed and hope to die. Pun intended :)
