Jeri Smith-Ready's new adult book!

I recently read & reviewed Jeri Smith-Ready's recent YA book, Shade. (Which, by the way, is an amazing book that I highly recommend!)

Ms. Smith-Ready has an adult book, Bring on the Night, that will soon be released and here's a little blurb:

WHAT'S BLOOD GOT TO DO WITH IT?

Recovering con artist Ciara Griffin seems to finally have it all. A steady job at WVMP, the Lifeblood of Rock 'n' Roll. A loving relationship with the idiosyncratic but eternally hot DJ Shane McAllister. A vampire dog who never needs shots or a pooper-scooper. And after nine years, it looks as if she might actually finish her bachelor's degree!

But fate has other plans for Ciara. First she must fulfill her Faustian bargain with the Control, the paranormal paramilitary agency that does its best to keep vampires in line. Turns out the Control wants her for something other than her (nonexistent) ability to kick undead ass. Her anti-holy blood, perhaps? Ciara's suspicions are confirmed when she's assigned to a special-ops division known as the Immanence Corps, run by the Control's oldest vampire and filled with humans who claim to have special powers. To a confirmed skeptic like Ciara, it sounds like a freak fest. But when a mysterious fatal virus spreads through Sherwood—and corpses begin to rise from their graves—Ciara will not only get a crash course in zombie-killing, but will be forced to put her faith, and her life itself, in the hands of magic

Sounds good, doesn't it? Perhaps some of us older readers can enjoy Ms. Smith-Ready's newest book while we're waiting for the sequel to Shade!

And check out this neat video where Jeri speaks about her past jobs before becoming an author!
