My favorite one is Angust, I just love it every time he gets teased by the others especially by Jean Luc when he and Emma whent to Paris and Jean Luc later told everybody about it. Hahahaha that part was funny especially the part when Angust tease Gregory scaring him that he will kill him. I just love all the books but Be still my vampire heart is my favorite for now.
March 9th, 2010 at 4:04 pm
Ian MacPhie is a cutie but I'm looking foward to Connor and Gregory's books
March 9th, 2010 at 4:47 pm
Ian is absolutely my favoite. I just love how he just wanted someone to love and love him back for who and what he was. Of cource the fact that he is a sexy vampire highlander helped alot.

My favorite is absolutely Jack (from Secret life of a vampire). I love that fact that he is the son of the Casanova. And I also love how Lara puts her self in danger to find the guy who's kidnapping all those redhaired girls. And I love the way Jack gets him out of the danger.
But still, I reaaaally love all the books. I own every one of the books that are published this far.
And I love all those kilts!!
March 9th, 2010 at 5:23 pm
I like Angus.

I love all your books! One of the most creative sets of vampires in the reading world! You have all my faves, in them! LOL I already reserved a copy and cannot wait to get it!
My Fave is jon luc

March 9th, 2010 at 5:26 pm
Connor is definitely my all time favorite!! Of course, I love them all, but Connor is at the top of the list.
March 9th, 2010 at 5:30 pm
I love each vampire as the books are published but I have to say that I have a soft spot for Roman because he was the first vampire that we were introduced to in this series….
March 9th, 2010 at 5:35 pm
My favorite fictional vampire would have to be from TV! Mick from Moonlight can bite me any day of the week!
March 9th, 2010 at 5:38 pm
I'm sad to say I've only read one book in this series,and that's How To Marry a Millionaire Vampire. So I can say that so far Roman is my favorite, who could resist a sweet yet protective vampire inventor!
Please enter me in the contest! Thabks!
March 9th, 2010 at 5:42 pm
LOL! Love the presents. Though I'd make those black roses instead of red. Black roses are cool.
My favorite is Ian MacPhie. A Scottish vampire? You couldn't get any better. :-)

Love Jean-Luc!!!!
March 9th, 2010 at 5:43 pm
My favorite vampire is Adrian Phoenix's Dante Baptiste.
I would love to win Forbidden Nights with a Vampire.
March 9th, 2010 at 5:45 pm
I love all the characters in these books but I would have to say the scottish vamps are the best… a man in a kilt just does something to ya… not u agree Kerrelyn?
Thanks Kerrelyn, love all your books,
Heidi
March 9th, 2010 at 6:13 pm
My choise would be Angus.
March 9th, 2010 at 6:16 pm
Bones is my favorite.

March 9th, 2010 at 6:22 pm
love them all… especially connor
March 9th, 2010 at 6:25 pm
Connor is my favorite next to Jack. I love the bad boy type. A must read is: All I want for Christmas is a Vampire a great book to start with.
March 9th, 2010 at 6:26 pm
My first thought was Edward (I know… grown). I would also have to say Wraith and ohhh, someone mentioned Mick from Moonlight! Can I have them all :)
March 9th, 2010 at 6:28 pm
Jack from the last book. I love all your books.
March 9th, 2010 at 6:40 pm
Oooh definitely Michael in Lost Boys. But since he's like 50 now, I'll go with the sure shot. Edward. *Drools*
March 9th, 2010 at 6:54 pm
It's hard to decide but I would have to say Connor. Mainly because I cannot wait for his story!!
March 9th, 2010 at 6:58 pm
Thank you for all the lovely comments! And for you Connor fans, his book will be coming up in 2011!
March 9th, 2010 at 7:02 pm
From "Secret Life of a Vampire": Giacomo, or rather, Jack de Venezia is the illegitimate son of Casanova. He is so gorgeous, and pines for a true love of his own. When he meets her…oooh, la, la!

I love jack! But I love them all too. I can't wait for conner's book! Or Gregory! I always look forward to the next release. Thanks for writing:-)
March 9th, 2010 at 8:33 pm
I love all of your books. If I have to pick just one vampire it would have to be Roman Draganesti.
To be that smart to invent synthetic blood.

OOPS! Was I supposed to leave my
email address? If so, it is:

It seems as if my first comment
was eaten up by the ether and my
second made it through to you!
Our family's favorite vampire was
Barnabas Collins of Dark Shadows.
Also a favorite was Angelique of
the same show. My 4 youngsters &
and I watched the show every day
after school. David would peek
around the buffet and duck back at
the most exciting moments! I'm
dating myself, but as a youngster
Dracula was the favorite and so
was his portrayer, Bela Lugosi.

March 9th, 2010 at 10:24 pm
Love it! And my favorite vampire is Conner, from your series!
March 9th, 2010 at 10:48 pm
I like Gregory.

My favorite vampire movie character is George Hamilton in "Love at First Bite"
mlawson17 at hotmail dot com
March 10th, 2010 at 3:59 am
LOL, I loved George Hamilton as a vampire, too! Also as Zorro. Frank Langella made a gorgeous vampire.
Thank you all for stopping by! I love reading all the comments!
March 10th, 2010 at 4:11 am
Angus, Ian, Connor, Roman, Jack – the list goes on and on, but please don't make me choose just one! They are all too great for words, but especially Angus and Ian – gotta love those highlanders!
March 10th, 2010 at 4:59 am
I agree 100% with Tami – my favorite vamp is Mick St. John from the now cancelled TV show Moonlight. I can't believe CBS cancelled this show with the huge vamp following these days. Thank goodness for DVD and the SyFy channel!
March 10th, 2010 at 9:35 am
Probably showing my age but my favourite vampire is Lestat (Anne Rice books).

March 10th, 2010 at 1:36 pm
Roman is my all time fav, all sexy but he is the best.
March 10th, 2010 at 1:38 pm
My favourite is definitely Roman Draganesti. It was my first book and I love it!

March 10th, 2010 at 4:11 pm
I love all Kerrelyn's books, but I have a special love for the Scottish vamps in their kilts. I love Conner's, Ian, Angus and all the other boys. They way they love their women takes my breath away!!! I can't wait for Conner's story.
March 10th, 2010 at 11:59 pm
Kerrelyn loved the list you really know how to make someone smile. My favorite vamp so hard to choose but I can narrow it down to 3 Ian, Adrian's Dante and Jeanine's Bones.
Are you going to be in Columbus for the RT Convention? I am planning on going for the Sat. signing so if you're there hope to see you then.
March 11th, 2010 at 4:16 am
