Books like Kiss of Death (Morganville Vampires, Book 8) by Rachel Caine
In the eighth book of the New York Times‑bestselling Morganville Vampires series, Michael Glass, a vampire with a passion for music, is handed a golden opportunity by a big‑time producer. He must cross into the human world to record a demo and perform live shows. The assignment comes with an unlikely entourage: a formidable immortal mentor and Michael’s own human friends, whose reactions range from wary to wildly enthusiastic.
The mismatched crew embarks on a cross‑country road trip that quickly spirals into chaos. Between the temptations of fame, the dangers lurking in human crowds, and the inevitable vampire politics of the Morganville world, the journey tests friendships, loyalty, and Michael’s own identity as a musician and a monster.
