There's a hot new underground club in town . . . but membership lasts an eternity.
It's summer break, and Raven knows she should stay put in Dullsville until her immortal love returns. But when she decides to go after Alexander, she can't resist a visit to her favorite Goth-spot, The Coffin Club. Sneaking inside, Raven is shocked to discover a secret door that leads to the entrance of another hidden club. There's something peculiar about this cryptic hangout—and it's too enticing for Raven to resist. Soon a dangerous battle for the club's rule erupts between Alexander's old nemesis and a mysterious new guy. Can Raven avoid the clash before her curiosity lands her in serious trouble?

Raven really misses her vampire boyfriend Alexander. She cannot imagine what could be keeping him away, so she begins searching the town for him. During her searches, she discovers a secret aspect to her favorite nightspot, the Coffin Club. Behind a secret door in the club lies an even more exclusive spot: a vampire-only area where the drinks are all blood and the clientele are all dead. Even though Raven realizes the danger, she is drawn to the club, she cannot keep away. When she discovers that Jasper, Alexander's old rival has sinister plans involving the club, Raven tries to keep herself safe while still seeking her boyfriend. While Raven's exploration of the club are interesting, her motivations for doing so while putting herself in danger seem unclear. The vampire mythos seems inconsistent with traditional lore. For example, why can vampires not tell Raven is human immediately? Still, Book Five of the "Vampire Kisses" series is an entertaining vampire adventure/romance. Reviewer: Amie Rose Rotruck

Raven is even pluckier than usual in the fifth novel of Schreiber's Vampire Kisses series. Alexander, Raven's vampire boyfriend, is in Hipsterville on a mission and is staying far too long. Becoming impatient, Raven boards a bus to Hipsterville to visit her wacky Aunt Libby and to find Alexander. While visiting the Coffin Club, a Hipsterville nightspot for vampire wannabes, Raven stumbles upon the Dungeon, a secret hangout for real vampires. Between romantic interludes with Alexander, she poses as a vampire in order to infiltrate the Dungeon and gather information about a feud between Alexander's nemesis Jagger and a compelling vampire named Phoenix. The tension in the club explodes when Jagger exposes Raven as a mortal, and the Dungeon vampires threaten to turn her into one of them. At the last second she is rescued by Phoenix, who turns out to be Alexander in disguise. Now that their troubles have simmered down, Alexander is suddenly ready to fulfill Raven's dream and make her his mate for eternity - or is he? Fans will have to wait for the next book to find out. This book's story line is more disjointed than that of the series entry, Dance with a Vampire (HarperTeen, 2007/VOYA June 2007). There are no dull moments here, however, and female readers will continue to enjoy the frustrating but juicy romance between impulsive Raven and levelheaded Alexander. Raven's escapades get her into some truly frightening fixes this time, but Schreiber's sense of humor permeates the plot, cleverly easing the tension. Reviewer: Dotsy Harland
