More Description There are three rules in this world. 1.) Vampires rule. 2.) Humans suffer. 3.) Never challenge the elites.I should have followed Rule #3 and slept in a cardboard box during my college years. But when I travel to Washington D.C to save my home, I catch the attention of the vampire government. Apparently, they're looking for people like me. Activists. Speakers. Fighters. Now, thanks to my bad temper, I'm trapped on a young activists' panel, courtesy of the vamps. That means I'm surrounded by entitled, immortal vampires who claim they're interested in what we have to say. And among them is Jeremy Haywood, the insufferable son of the President. He's mysterious, dangerous, and he has his eyes on me. The thing is, I can't tell why. I just know that I'm in danger. The vamps wouldn't shower us with open ears, free food, and free housing out of kindness. And there's a fourth rule that everyone knows. 4.) When someone says, I'm from the government and I'm here to help, run. If only it were that simple. The vampires have a plan for me and the other human activists. I'm on trial. And if I leave, I forfeit the lives of my family. Now there's only one possible escape. Jeremy. It turns out he may be much more than the President's entitled son. He just might help me survive what's coming, but I have to trust him and dive straight into the heart of the vampires' dangerous world. And I might pay with my blood. Presidential Vampire: First Sun is the first book of the Presidential Vampire series. It is an upper YA dystopian paranormal romance. There are no references to real-life politics, though some strong language is present.What Reviewers Are Saying: "To be honest, I wasn't sure if I would get into this book because I am not a political person. But I was so pleasantly surprised! I really enjoyed this book! The politics and activism were secondary to what I felt was the main story, which was one girl's frantic fight to stay alive, and keep her friends and family safe from the powerful vampires whose cat-and-mouse games were part of an even deeper and more sinister plot. I recommend this book, and really look forward to reading the next in the series! " - Amazon Reviewer"This book did something no other book could do - it got me to read about politics! I normally stay far away from political books, but this was so different I couldn't stop reading! These are ruthless vampires with a secret agenda. It takes politics to a whole new level! Even if you don't normally read books involving politics, read this one! You'll never look at vampires the same again! " -Amazon Reviewer"Intriguing and thought provoking, are the first two words that come to mind for this book. The characters lose themselves in a battle of wits. The main character continues to land herself in dire situations; really she drowns by her choices in a cutthroat society, trying to survive." - Amazon Reviewer
