Mother, wife, private investigator ... and vampire. Six years ago, federal agent Samantha Moon was the perfect wife and soccer mom with the minivan and suburban home. Then the unthinkable happened, an attack that changed her life forever. And forever is a very long time for a vampire.
Samantha’s adventures as a night-roaming vampire and private investigator in Samantha Moon include ...
Vampire for Hire #1) Moon Dance: Samantha is hired by Kingsley Fulcrum to investigate the attempt on his life, a horrific scene watched on TV around the country. But Kingsley isn’t exactly what he appears to be; after all, there is a reason why he survived five shots to the head.
Vampire for Hire #2) Vampire Moon: Samantha Moon hunts down a powerful crime lord and protects an innocent woman from her ruthless ex-husband—all while two very different men vie for her heart. As the stakes grow higher and her cases turn personal, Samantha Moon will do whatever it takes to protect the innocent and bring two cold-blooded killers to justice—her own brand of justice.
Vampire for Hire #3) American Vampire: Samantha receives a heartbreaking call from a very unlikely source: a five-year-old girl who’s been missing for three months. Using her considerable resources—including her growing supernatural abilities—to locate the missing girl before it’s too late, Samantha also receives devastating news on the home front, forcing her to make the ultimate choice of life and death.
Vampire for Hire #4) Moon Child: Samantha Moon is faced with an impossible decision that will change her life and those of the ones she loves forever—a decision that no mother should ever have to make. And through it all, Samantha finds herself in a lethal game of vampire versus vampire as a powerful and desperate enemy will stop at nothing to claim what he most desires.
Christmas Moon: With Christmas just around the corner, Samantha takes on a very strange case: A priceless family treasure has been stolen, something passed down through the generations and buried in secrets. And Samantha gets half of whatever it is ... if she can find it first.
... and an all-new Samantha Moon short story by J.R. Rain.
This 672-page omnibus provides a full introduction into the lives and adventures of Samantha Moon, loving wife and soccer mom, private investigator, and vampire. This trade paperback and NOOK Book original collects the first four series novels: Moon Dance; Vampire Moon; American Vampire; and Moon Child, plus the Christmas Moon novella and a new short story. Vampire versus vampire showdowns of the very best kind.
“Be prepared to lose sleep!”
—James Rollins, international bestselling author of The Doomsday Key on J.R. Rain’s The Lost Ark
“I love this!”
—Piers Anthony, international bestselling author of A Spell for Chameleon
“J.R. Rain delivers a blend of action and wit that always entertains. Quick with the one-liners, but his characters are fully fleshed out (even the undead ones) and you’ll come back again and again.”
—Scott Nicholson, bestselling author of Liquid Fear
“Dark Horse is the best book I’ve read in a long time!”
—Gemma Halliday, bestselling of Spying in High Heels
“Moon Dance is absolutely brilliant!”
—Lisa Tenzin-Dolma, author of Understanding the Planetary Myths
“Powerful stuff!”
—Aiden James, bestselling author of The Vampires’ Last Lover
“Moon Dance is a must read. If you like Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum, bounty hunter, be prepared to love J. R. Rain’s Samantha Moon, vampire private investigator.”
—Eve Paludan, author of Letters from David
“Impossible to put down. J.R. Rain’s Moon Dance is a fabulous urban fantasy replete with multifarious and unusual characters, a perfectly synchronized plot, vibrant dialogue and sterling witticism all wrapped in a voice that is as beautiful as it is rich and vividly intense as it is relaxed.”
—April Vine, author of The Midnight Rose

Need a new Super Hero, well her she is. Samantha Moon will capture your heart. She's a caring mom, takes down the bad guys, while putting her ex-husband in his place. With each book JR grabs your attention and keeps you holding on to the very end and leaves you begging for more. JR Rain has created a Super Hero that every woman can relate to and wish she was. With leading men who will leave you swooning and waiting for what comes next. Highly anticipating book 5.

These stories are a great read. Buy this set and get a fantastic deal. Just make sure you have plenty of time or you could be up all night and seriously considering calling in sick to work so you can read on!

I have to say I was sceptical about reading these books,but wow was I wrong! I absolutely love this series. (Hate the husband though,LOL!) As soon as I finished one book I had to immediately start the next one because J R Rain is a master at penning cliffhangers. I highly recommend Samantha Moon.

I read all four in a few days and quite enjoyed them. Characters were a hit or miss though- only three seemed well developed and the others were completely flat. I would classify this series as somewhere between True Blood and The Stephanie Plum Evanovich series. Not as good as either but a nice read.

Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.This is a GREAT series! Mini van driving /Soccer mom Samantha Moon's life changed completely one dreadful night. She is still driving the mini van and still catering for her two kids with a slight difference....She's a vampire now. She is also a private investigator. She works hard to keep life as normal as possible for everyone around her while fighting to discover her new self. She is smart and funny and charming and surrounded by a great cast of characters. I love this series and the cases that Samantha takes on. I absolutely can't wait for more!!

Stopped reading after page 4. Same phrases one right after the other. The story line was weak, cheesy, and boring from page one. There were details that were pointless and had nothing to do with her character or what the story was evrn about. Grammar and spelling errors are everywhere which also makes it seem like the author was a fourth grader who was learning the basic techniques of writing. In my opinion this book shouldn't be bought or read. It is a complete waste of time.

He was living in LA and writing stories and helping people online with their own stories. He was always super nice! His parents write christian books that sell on this site. His mom has always been super nice and writes a great book as well! I love his stories still and I hope he keeps it up! good going Jon!
