Synopsis:

Rayne McDonald thought getting into the Blood Coven was the hard part. But now there's a new breed of trouble in town...and the former slayer and her vampire boyfriend may be the only ones who can stop it.

Now that she's an official vampire and full-fledged member of The Blood Coven, Rayne assumes her vampire slaying days are over. Sure, she doesn't have any vampire powers, thanks to a mutated blood virus, but she and Jareth can go out in the sun, which is a pretty good trade-off.

But just when Rayne's starting to enjoy her afterlife, she's contacted by Slayer Inc once again. It seems that a member of her high school's football team has disappeared—and the powers-that-be think the cheerleaders had something to do with it. Now Rayne has to infiltrate the squad before the cheerleaders have a chance to sink their teeth into someone else...

My rating: ★★★★★

Oh this Rayne...I don't think she'll ever stop surprising me: First a vampire slayer, and now a vampire?? A vampire vampire slayer? She's got quite a few titles there, now doesn't she?

Her next assignment as the slayer: figure out why the cheerleading squad has been heard...growling. Very, very strange. What Rayne must do: infiltrate the squad to find out what the heck is going on.....in other words, she has to join the cheerleading team O.O *gasp* I know... Rayne and cheerleading? That's like paring ice cream and needles! But Rayne as a cheerleader....totally hilarious!

Anyway, after Rayne figures out what's wrong with the cheerleaders, she and Jareth fly out to England to retrieve...something that will make the cheerleaders...erm, stop growling. (Just FYI, I'm trying to be good and not put any spoilers! But its so hard!)

Their trip to England was quite crazy, but I think its totally cool that Rayne and Jareth, as vampires, can go out during daylight! (And no, they don't sparkle :P) I was a little sad that Jareth and Rayne got into a fight though...I am totally in love with Jareth! He is just the sweetest thing ever! He and Rayne are so great together!

Overall, I absolutely loved that story! And as I said already, I LOVE this series! I wasn't really a big fan of vampire novels, but I think that is starting to change ;)
