I love this series! Funny, romantic and a perfect mix of scary and silly. Sinclair is steamy, brooding, jealous and hot (the perfect vampire), and Betsy is a loveable (slightly dippy, fashion obsessed) goof, but with a lot of power (in and around her).
About book #1:
First Betsy Taylor loses her job, then she’s killed in a car accident. But what really bites is that she can’t seem to stay dead. And now her new friends have the ridiculous idea that Betsy is the prophesied vampire queen, and they want her help in overthrowing the most obnoxious power-hungry vampire in five centuries.

However, after perusing the author’s website, I was enlightened to some reading order details. Considering her books overlap (her werewolf series, vampire series, and mermaid series), this is her recommendation when reading her stories (including her novellas that are included in certain anthologies):

I am happily addicted to reading but I need to expend my book energy (especially when one puts me in an emotional frenzy - SO fun!). So, I release my feelings about the stories, by writing them down here. It's my book therapy.

Best series I’ve read since the Sookie Stackhouse novels. Better in my opinion! (if you make a television series out of it, I hope YOU stay as close to the REAL story as possible!).
Great, funny and I laugh out loud so much my husband thinks I’m a nut case!
Thank you for all that you do.
Best Regards,

I stared reading just the undead series, since i found this page I have decided to read the books I have missed, hoping to fill in some blanks. But I’m wondering about the rest of the books. Your list stops at undead and unwelcome. What should i read after i get there?
Thanks
Thanks Ashleigh! It’s updated now
How are you liking the series. I LOVE it!
The next Wyndam wolves (http://www.amazon.com/Wolf-at-Door-MaryJanice-Davidson/dp/0425243117/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpt_10) is coming out in October. Maybe you wanted to add it to the list? Thank you for the reading order
Hi! I was wondering where Wolf At The Door falls in the series wise. It was a new release (Oct 4) and I wasn’t sure when to read it. I have the audio-books of 8-11 and haven’t listened to them yet because I didn’t know where Wolf At The Door fell. I hate spoilers, ya know? I
thanks so much
