The Drakes and friends will be tested when an infestation of deadly vampires threatens Violet Hill Lucy’s cousin Christabel has come to live in Violet Hill, and adjusting to the difference between life in a small mountain town and her home in the city is difficult enough.

But Christabel has noticed some mysterious happenings, and it seems like Lucy, her boyfriend Nicholas and his brother Connor are all in on a secret that Christabel doesn’t understand—one that seems deadly serious. Although she won’t admit it, Christabel would love to be in on any secret with Connor Drake. But when she is kidnapped by tthe ruthless Hel-Blar vampires, Christabel must cause more and more trouble in Violet Hill, Lucy and Connor finally fill Christabel in on all the undead drama. Together, they must find a way to stamp out the Hel-Blar for good.

I have just finished reading ‘Out for Blood’, and it was great, just like the others. I know that ‘Bleeding Hearts’ comes out in November, I was just wondering how many more books there will be in this series. I have really enjoyed reading it, and I am hoping that there is a hell of alot more to look forward too.
Thanks so much for your reply. It must be hard to answer all these messages and keep working at the same time. Again thanks for the reply and i am really looking forward to the next book along with all the others to come.
Can you give us a sneal peak about lucy and nicholas relationshi? Will they Get Married?
They’re a little young right now!
Lucy and Nicholas get married ? xD Oohh, I don’t know… I wish that Lucy become a vampire.
That’s to far away!!! : )
Out for blood is soooo good. Nicholas and lucy are still my favorite couple. I can’t wait for Bleeding Hearts its goona be long year.
P.s. Alyxandra harvey i think your just as good as Carrie Jones, Stephenie Meyer
lucy and nicholas r my fav couple 2 but when i read the first book i was soooo not expecting a romance between them but it would be so cool if they got married !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! not right now………….lol
but maby in like the last book
!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ps. LOVE ur books and i think ur the best writer ever
it would be so cool if lucy and nicholas got married. thier my fav.it would be even cooler if all the brothers found they’re perfect soulmate and i mean all 7.so far there is only solange and kieran,nicholas and lucy,logan and isabeau,and quinn and hunter.i thought it would be conner and chloe since they both can do almost anything on computer you know and november 2011 is such a long time. i can hardly wait but do you have a day for it to come out
i’m sorry i don’t actually know the exact date yet….
Stephanie meyer has nothing on Alyxandra harvey.
Damn straight!!
hell ya she has no chance lmao
Why do we have to wait so long it is killing me I have read Out for Blood sooooooo many times it is ooooooooo good
the publishers have their own schedule….but i hate waiting for books too!
WoW I totally love your books. I’m surprised though, for some weird reason I saw Conner with Hunter’s best friend. But of course you had to keep suspense, mystery and romance so this looks good. I can read your books over and over again with no problem of boredom so I’m going to start counting down the days till book 4 comes out. Ugh such a long time though.
thank you! i hate waiting too
ikr!! hearts at steak and out for blood were my favorite and Jannessa i was thinking the same thing since they were both into techy stuff
Oooooh! I CANT WAIT!
I love these books! You are one of my most favorite writers ever! Do you knw EXACTY when the next book will come out? I like to have my release dates in order. Hehe. Thanks for everything especially for writting such an amazingly wonderful series.
thanks! glad you enjoy them!
I know it’s November…I think …lol actually your best bet is to check an amazon or indigo or barnes and nobles for an exact date. UK and NA often have different releases…

Anyways thanks for making these books
Byee <3
i totally agree with you sara
i totally agree sandy! im so excited for Bleeding Hearts!
I love these books. I can’t even read these at school (and few books have EVER succeeded this
) because of how hyper I get when I read them. I’ve read the first so many times that it’s about to fall apart! I can’t wait for both the third and fourth to come out 
I think that you’re an amazing author, and I can’t wait to read more of your work.
I absolutley love this series! I have been following it adamantly, re-reading the books (especially the first one) over and over again! I love Lucy because I’d love to punch Kieran xD I’d love to be amazing at fighting (Nicholas is definitley a pro too lol). I cannot wait for the next book/s (plural hopefully) and I must say that my favourite characters are Nicholas and Lucy, so I hope soon we’ll have a book with both their points of views (?) I am going to be estatic for the rest of the day now, I didn’t know another book was coming out.
Oh yes I am an amazing fanatic 
Rach xxx
P.S. I just read Out for Blood in around two-three hours
Hi i love your books and love the couples
OMG!! i have read each of your books so many times, and each time i just cant put it down even when i know how it ends. I think Nicholas is still my favourite Drake
and i cant wait until November for the next one!?!? its definately too long away 
anyway i love the books and i think you should write more of them!
that is so true her books are asome! and Nicholas is my favourite Drake 2 <3 i wish she woud right a book about him and lucy . and i cant whait til bleeding hearts comes out . : )
Book 4 is partly Lucy’s POV and Book 5 has both Lucy and Nicholas…
my fave is Out For Blood, i just LOVE Hunter and Quinn!
