And God Created Vampires Pete reads from first chapters

Imagine if you will that everything you thought you knew about vampires is largely a ruse created by vampires to hide their true identity and nature from humans.
What if their true nature was that of natural creatures of skin, flesh and bone, and not some undead demon but is rather the top predator created by God?
Starting with the novel AThe Dancing Valkyrie,@ continuing with the AVampire Valkyrie@ and now with AAnd God Created Vampires@ their true and often human like nature continues in the story of Mary Hoffman, aka Erica, who first became a vampire in AThe Dancing Valkyrie@ when seduced by a beautiful female vampire of the 1400's while on a hike in the remote Adirondack woods of northern New York State.
Enter the world of Mary the vampire where sex is the tool she often uses to seduce her prey and obtain the blood she needs. This is a world of violence and sex unrestrained by human morality. Yet it is also a world of love and responsibility towards both the vampires and humans Mary comes to love as she finds herself entangled with humans she tries to protect from the mob, the FBI, CIA and vampires who want her dead.
