The Vampire Shrink by Lynda Hilburn

 

Vampires in the Club

Kismet is a psychologist in Denver. She meets with a 20-something client, Midnight, whose parents insist on a counseling appointment because of Midnight's infatuation with the underground vampire culture in Denver's nightlife scene, particularly the crowd that hangs out at The Crypt, a popular goth/alternative dance club. Midnight insists that vampires are real and wants to become one; Kismet discovers Midnight is also a lonely individual whose mother is unavailable and whose father is a long-time untreated addict.
 Kismet becomes interested in the vampire culture and considers writing a book about the psychology of vampire wannabes. Then she meets Devereaux, the owner of The Crypt nightclub. After meeting Devereaux, and other not-near-as-pleasant night walkers who habitually terrorize others, Kismet doesn't know what to believe about whether or not vampires really exist. But she does know her feelings for Devereaux have magic intensity.
This is a sexy vampire novel that incorporates suspense, murder, mayhem, FBI and police involvement, violence, vampire culture, the spirit world, addiction, witchcraft and weirdly, humor. I enjoyed it enough that I'll pick up the second book, Blood Therapy.
