INTO THE RED is a paranormal romantic suspense novel that I found unique for its subject. The author, Kelly Whitley, challenged herself with a very popular genre, and she does it with style, ingenuity, and then magnificently provides a thorough offering. As a medical worker, she used her background to formulate an entirely new species based on a blood born disease. It takes a distinctive twist on the cause of vampirism, gives us a new history of the species, and examines how the sect survives in a traditional world.Kelly also gives us a thrilling take on the `bite,' and the addiction to human blood or `red'. Her intriguing story includes well-crafted characters such as, Evan a man turned vampire because it was the only way to save his life, but shut down by the loss of his fiancée. Or the Purgers,  a secret vampire police force who go after those addicted to `red' or human blood, and Tara, a woman who survives two bouts of leukemia only to find herself struggling against serious fatigue and the fear that it may be back.The romance is hot and sexy, and most definitely blush worthy--this book has it all!I love that Kelly made her vampires a very real part of society but still managed to give them some of the super human characteristic we all love in our vamps. I will not spill the secrets with my review, but I think you will find her interpretation refreshing.INTO THE RED is well written, expertly crafted, and extremely hard to put down. I was enthralled and did not want to put it down, but even when finished, I wanted more.Pick up this book. You will be entertained, and meet a new author, Kelly Whitley, clearly on her way to literary success!Into the Red
