Interpretation As Books Wicked Game (WVMP Radio #1)
LATE NIGHT RADIO YOU CAN SINK YOUR TEETH INTORecovering con artist Ciara Griffin is trying to live the straight life, even if it means finding a (shudder!) real job. She takes an internship at a local radio station, whose late-night time-warp format features 1940s blues, '60s psychedelia, '80s goth, and more, all with an uncannily authentic flair. Ciara soon discovers just how the DJs maintain their cred: they're vampires, stuck forever in the eras in which they were turned.
Ciara's first instinct, as always, is to cut and run. But communications giant Skywave wants to buy WVMP and turn it into just another hit-playing clone. Without the station and the link it provides to their original Life Times the vampires would "fade," becoming little more than mindless ghosts of the past. Suddenly a routine corporate takeover is a matter of life and undeath.
To boost ratings and save the lives of her strange new friends, Ciara rebrands the station as "WVMP, the Lifeblood of Rock 'n' Roll." In the ultimate con, she hides the DJs' vampire nature in plain sight, disguising the bloody truth as a marketing gimmick. WVMP becomes the hottest thing around next to Ciara's complicated affair with grunge vamp Shane McAllister. But the "gimmick" enrages a posse of ancient and powerful vampires who aren't so eager to be brought into the light. Soon the stakes are higher and the perils graver than any con game Ciara's ever played...

This wasnt bad. I really liked all the music references. I thought that the male lead was pretty fabulous. The developing relationship between the two main characters was also pretty great with an extremely sweet first date. The plot was ok. I didnt think it was as exciting as some, and Im not quite sold on the logistics of it all. My one big specific complaint was that Ciara the female lead has a background as a con artist and I didnt think there was enough detail about that. It was mostlyA great book! It has an original premise for vampire lit, skilled writing and character development, and a terrific plot. It wasn't too dark or too light, there was romance without it being the main focus of the book. There is a bit of a mystery, some action, and some drama. The rock and roll aspect was creative and fun. This was definitely one of my favorite urban fantasy books. Be sure to check out the wvmpradio.com website to hear each DJ's playlists. There is even a fun Cafe Press store with

Wicked Game was truly a wicked first book in WVMP Radio series. The storyline began in the middle of action and pulled me fast in to Ciara Griffin life. Ciara is interesting young woman, with many hidden talents, which aren't legal. I found her fresh, realistic and positive. The main storyline developed fast and was interesting till the end. I'm definitely looking forward for more!!
I am feeling very uninspired to write a review right now, so I doubt I will have much to say but I will give it a go.Ok so Ciara is pretty tough and can take care of herself, she con people and take their money to pay for tuition and she didn't exactly have a normal childhood. She is studying at college and she needs a job for it, an internship at this radio station could be something. Oh yes a radio station where the djs are vampires, I do like that idea and how that have stayed in their own
I have had this urban fantasy series to read for some time. There are four books in this series. It ended up being an okay vampire urban fantasy read. There are some interesting aspects to the vampires in this book that are new and interesting. I thought the characters were okay but not great. Additionally the plot was a mystery of sorts and again was okay but not great.Ciara is an ex-con artist trying to stay on the straight and narrow. She ends up taking a job as a marketing intern at the WMMP
Please note: I received an ARC (Advanced Reader's Copy) of this book, which is actually coming out May 13th! Ciara Griffin grew up in a family of grifters, but is looking to go straight when she finds an internship at a radio station. To her surprise, WMMP's eclectic play list ranging from 1940s blues to 1990s grunge stems from the fact that the disc jockeys are all vampires, each stuck (sartorially as well as musically) in the decade they became undead. Since the station is at risk of being
