It’s a tale of loving and finding love. It tells of family legacy and solidarity.
When Dan Tugur ( a descendant from the Tugurlan vampire slayers, who shortened thair names when they moved to the USA) is recuited to help his best friend and martial arts instructor find his missing fiancé, he had no idea that he would have to go up a gainst a den of vampires to get her back. H e also didn't know he came from a long line of vampire slayers. Vampire Iniquity is the first book of the Tugurlan Slayer Chronicles. It's a tale of loving and finding love. It tells of family legacy and solidarity. It speaks of friendship, loyalty, bravery, compassion, and I'm sorry to say... horror. This story is not for the wak of stomach or faint of heart.
Excerpt
PROLOGUE
Long before Bram Stoker wove his tale of Dracula for the world to read as fiction, there existed a true creature of the night who went by just such a name. Did Mr. Stoker know this? I question if he might have, since much of what he wrote reads with remarkable accuracy.
If Mr. Stoker’s intention was to write a biography of an unbelievable being under the guise of fiction he did a decent job, but missed a great portion of significance. To withhold such information from the unsuspecting masses -to believe or not believe as their conscience allows- is a wrong I don’t want attributed to me.
The story I’m about to share with you is a recount of true experiences of which I was a major player. It’s a tale of loving and finding love. It tells of family legacy and solidarity. It speaks of friendship, loyalty, bravery, compassion, and I’m sorry to say… horror. Because of this, I would like to point out that this story is not for the weak of stomach or faint of heart.
You’d expect to find a story like this in the fiction aisle of your brick and mortar book store instead of the non-fiction section where it truly belongs, and that’s okay with me. In fact, I prefer it. It makes it easier to tell a story that I find unbelievable even though I lived through it when it’s formatted and touted as fictitious. I feel free sharing the details under the guise of make believe.
There were times that I was not in the company of all who were involved, yet their experiences played a role in the story and should still be shared. In these cases, I will do my best to keep the story flowing by telling how it happened to the best of my knowledge.
My name is Dan Tugur. I’m a vampire slayer and this is my story.
So, I begin…

Review by: mandarich1983 on July 03, 2017 :
This is a romance series with a twist. If you're looking for a sappy romance novel where you know the ending by page 50, this isn't the book for you. But, if you want a novel that has hot, sexy heroes doing what needs to be done all for the sake of love, then by all means read this book. It has love, intrigue, danger, heartache, discovery, loveliness, grossness, etc. The characters were well written. I could easily see myself having coffee with any of them. I can't wait to read books 2 and 3.

A fine blend of fantasy and reality, highly recommended

Usually those behind prostitution and human trafficking business are monsters,but in this case it's literal. "Vampire Iniquity" (formerly Vampires in Vegas by R. A. Lura) is a story of modern vampires. The son of Count Dracula has for years been working on a way for his kind to build up resistance and immunity to the burning sun that so often ails them. Their methods are far from morally right, as they set up their own breeding operation to use human DNA for their methods.But they happened to kidnap the wrong girl... "Vampire Iniquity" is a fine blend of fantasy and reality,highly recommended.

The prologue being in first person for this book captured my attention right away. I am so used to seeing things written in third person. We learn about our storyteller's friend, Shen. How did Dan meet him? Who is Dao-Ming? What is going on that has our men hopping on planes and flying 5 hours across the country? Who is Stevenson and why is Shen looking for him? What price does Stevenson tell Shen it will cost him for what Shen is looking for? Who is Wadim? Where are Shen and his friend directed to? Who is Mr. Tugur? I find myself liking a woman named Mei-Lien. Well, if you can call her a woman. I'm not yet sure what to call her. However, I do like her. I like what she says to Dao-Ming. On the night after a bride was taken by Wadim, what is supposed to happen? This was a very interesting read. Not at all the typical Dracula the Vampire book that many turn into. I enjoyed it and hope you do too.
Shirine McVey discovers that twenty years of her life have elapsed since she went to sleep in a hotel room in El Paso, Texas. And worse, she is married to a man she doesn't know.
