[edit] Vampire Kisses

In her small town dubbed "Dullsville," sixteen-year-old Raven--a vampire-crazed, goth-girl-is an outcast. But not for long...

The intriguing and rumored-to-be haunted mansion on top of Benson Hill has stood vacant and boarded-up for years. That is, until its mysteriously strange new occupants move in. Who are these creepy people--especially the handsome, dark and elusive Alexander Sterling? Or rather, what are they? Could the town prattle actually ring true? Are they vampires? Raven, who secretly covets a vampire kiss, both at risk of her own mortality and Alexander's loving trust, is dying to uncover the truth.


[edit] Vampire Kisses II: Kissing Coffins

Life in “Dullsville” has become far from dull for goth-girl Raven. After meeting Alexander Sterling—a night-thriving, shadowy dream guy—her dark world suddenly has a bright glow. But as in her favorite movie, Kissing Coffins, Raven knows that love always has its complications. And Alexander has a secret; a secret she must quietly guard. When he mysteriously disappears, Raven finds herself on a dangerous chase to find him. What she encounters is more terrifying than she could have imagined—including a life-transforming decision she may not be ready to sink her teeth into. Ellen Schreiber presents a chilling and suspenseful sequel to her popular tale of an unusual teen romance, Vampire Kisses.


[edit] Vampire Kisses III: Vampireville

For goth-girl Raven, dating her dream boyfriend is complicated, especially as Alexander's secret means that they can only see each other at night. And now the pair must be extra wary in the dark with Alexander's arch-rival Jagger appearing around town. As if Jagger isn't enough cause for worry, Luna, his strikingly pale sister has also surfaced, and seems to have her sights set on Raven's own longtime nemesis, Trevor. Together, Raven and Alexander must begin a terrifying search for Jagger and Luna's hideout to drive them away. That is, if it's not already too late to save Dullsville from permanently becoming Vampireville.


[edit] Vampire Kisses IV: Dance with a Vampire

There’s a new vampire in town. Valentine’s appearance may even pose further threats. Could he somehow know Raven’s innermost feelings about becoming immortal for her true love, Alexander? The far-from-ordinary romance of these two teen outsiders takes another surprise-filled spin in the fourth book of Ellen Schreiber’s applauded Vampire Kisses series.


[edit] Vampire Kisses V: The Coffin Club

Its tough for love-struck Raven to imagine what's keeping her nocturnal boyfriend from returning to Dullsville. So there's only one thing to do find Alexander. Along the way, Raven can't resist the spot where she feels most at home, The Coffin Club. But when she stumbles upon a secret door in the club, she descends into a dim catacomb to a hidden hang-out where the house-drink happens to be Type A or B. Drawn to one of its shadowy members, Raven suspects she's in over her head. But exploring the covert club is too tempting, even after coming face-to-face with Alexanders trouble-stirring enemy.


[edit] Becky Miller

Becky Miller is the long time and only friend of Raven Madison.

[edit] Personal History

As a child she lived on the farmland area of Dullsville and because she was shy she had no friends and was mentioned to more unpopular than Raven. The two didn't actually offically ment and become friends until third grade when Raven spotted her sitting and crying on the school steps waiting for her mom to come pick her up. Feeling sorry for her, Raven cheered her up by telling her not worry and that her mom could have stopped at 7-Eleven for snacks. And sure enough her mother drove up and Becky feeling grateful invited Raven to her house. And as the only the kid who didn't pick on her and call her names Raven soon became her friend and bodyguard.

[edit] Role In Series

In the first book of the series Becky has a relatively large part in the story but as the series progresses her role grows small. Other than being Raven's partner in "crime" not much is mentioned about Becky in recent books other than her relationship with Matt Wells. Though much of her is seen in the manga adaption, it is also said that more of her will be seen in the up coming volume of Vampire Kisses Blood Relatives.
