43 Light Street #9
Midnight Kiss
Don't invite him in
That's what they told you to do when you met a vampire. But Jessica Adams was powerless to resist him. His voice enveloped her like a lover's embrace, his eyes pierced her very soul.
She told herself it was just a dream. A nightmare she'd had every midnight since she started filming Midnight Kiss. Maybe it was the accidents on the set. Or because Matthew Griffon's writing was so seductive, his vampire so real.
From the moment she met the reclusive Griffon, Jessica was powerfully drawn to him. His ebony eyes, the way he hid from the public light, the dark secrets he concealed... they all seemed oddly familiar.
Just who was this Matthew Griffon -- creator of a character, or her midnight lover in the flesh?

About the author
Rebecca York
319 books449 followersRuth Glick (born 1942) is a best-selling author of healthy cookbooks and has also written dozens of romantic suspense romance novels under the pen name Rebecca York.
Ruth earned a B.A. in American Thought and Civilization from George Washington University and an M.A. in American Studies from the University of Maryland. Although she always wanted to become a writer, Glick was convinced that her lack of spelling skills meant that her goal was unattainable. As a stay-at-home mother, she took a community college course to help her choose a career. The course made it very clear that writing was her primary interest. Glick began writing articles for newspapers and magazines, but after several years decided to try writing fiction. Her first book, a kids' science fiction book, was finally purchased by Scholastic Inc..
Since then, Glick has become a highly successful author of over 50 romantic suspense and paranormal novels. Many of her novels are published under the Harlequin Intrigue line, and in June 2003, she became one of the first authors published under Berkley's new Sensation imprint. Before 1997, she often collaborated with Eileen Buckholtz and Kathryn Jenson.
Glick also is a highly regarded author of cookbooks focusing on healthy eating. She sometimes hires trained chefs to test the recipes that she creates, and makes sure that every recipe is tested at least three times before it appears in one of her cookbooks.
Glick is the head of the Columbia Writers Workshop. She and her husband, Norman Glick, live in Columbia, Maryland, where Ruth collects rocks, and enjoys cooking, walking, reading, gardening, travel, and Mozart operas. They have two grown children, Elissa and Ethan, and two grandsons (Jesse and Leo).

I enjoyed this book, it is a little bit of mystery and intrigue and a little bit of romance. It is an easy and entertaining read.

Part of a vintage set of books I picked up because honestly it sounded intriguing! A vampire who comes to life from a book! Maybe during the time it was written it held more punch than reading it now.
Even so, it was a pretty good book! Well written, decent heat although I wanted to smack some sense into both of the leads at times!
Part of a “43 Light street” series, I’m going to try to locate a few more to read! I really liked the ideas in the book!

I got a Romantic Suspense copy, different cover than above and no number, but this was originally a HI #273.

Producer Jessica Adams and author Matthew Griffon are producing a vampire movie. Mysterious vampire-type things are happening which have spooked the cast and brought the police and media to the set. When the entire cast retreats to the haunted house for rehearsels, the fun really starts. It is a race to the finish to see whether Jessica and Matthew can uncover the culprit before they all get murdered.
Well written but short and rushed.

Cheesy but liked it. The plot was mostly on the lovers and the "main plot" was really the sub plot. It was a little ridiculous but hey, sometimes you just gotta do cheesy once in a while.
