Kate Murphy is just a nurse and single mom who wants to slip into her forties quietly, and finally lose those last 10 pounds. After a savage attack during her night shift break, Kate is turned into a vampire to save her. Now, she is thrust into a world that she didn’t know existed; trying to figure out how to keep her new condition secret from work, kids, and her ex-husband without missing a step. It’s funny how the word vampire will make you forget you have a water bill. Unfortunately, Sorin, the Lord of the city, has sent her on a suicide mission to find the thing that left her for dead before it kills again and he doesn’t take “no, thanks” for an answer. Despite knowing she should despise him, the passion he has ignited inside her is hard to control and she is quickly losing the reasons she shouldn’t give in...especially when he makes it clear that he wants the same thing. Kate will need to reach inside herself to find the strength that was always there and finally learn...she was never “just” anything.

Well before the curtains drew on the first annual Grammy Awards ceremony, before the Nevada deserts were lit up by the casinos of Las Vegas, Pierre Cossette was just another Canadian kid, running around the rural town of Valleyfield, Quebec. Circumstances would bring the Cossette family to Pasadena, California; from there, a brazen determination and entrepreneurial savvy would hoist Pierre to the top of the world of glitz and glamour. Along the road, the entertainment industry in the United States would be forever changed by the kid from Valleyfield. In Another Day in Showbiz, Pierre Cossette tells his unique story for the first time -- from his days as a rookie MCA agent in Vegas, pedling the likes of Ann-Margret and Sammy Davis Jr. to wary casino bosses, to his current capers alongside Donald Trump and Celine Dion's extended family. Triumphs and trip-ups, Broadway hits and broadcasting battles, all recounted in a tale that is both the intimate story of one man's life and an unabashed account of the world's most watched industry. Few in Valleyfield, Quebec would have guessed that one of their own would go on to talk Ronald Reagan into doing a show at the Last Frontier Casino, or introduce the concept of the "lounge act" to Las Vegas. Few in the music business would have guessed it possible to start a major record label from scratch, or to televise the Grammy Awards to more than 100 million viewers. Yet Pierre Cossette has accomplished all this -- and plenty more. In Another Day in Showbiz, he tells us how. Book jacket.
