Wynette Hoffman's Blood is Thicker Than Water, first book in a series called the Reilly Vampire Chronicles. Next one comes out this fall or winter. It's a very fun read, she's one of my favorite authors now. From the back of the book:
"This book contains the following elements which may be considered unsuitable by some readers and literary purists: violence, graphic sex, erotic blood sucking, foul language, gore, angst, questions of morality, reincarnation, guns, S&M, family loyalty, pop culture references, the promotion of anarchy, metaphors, wiccans, druids, ancient Celtic goddesses, undead politics & etiquette, thralls, snappy banter and witty retorts, pregnancy & childbirth, bisexuality, talking dogs, car wrecks, torture, romance, sibling rivalry, psychic powers & scenery, and true love. And though promoted as a vampire novel, it may or may not contain vampires within the parameters of any one person's definition of the undead and/or blood sucking leeches.
Pure pulp, read at your own risk."
Small publisher, but you can get it at amazon or special order it through msot bookstores. Well worth the price!
