It was a flash in the moonlight, a blur of motion like I’d never witnessed before. No human had the capacity to move like that. When I found myself face-to-face with him there in the meadow, I knew without a doubt that the journal was authentic. I knew that my grandfather hadn’t been crazy at all. Because a foot away from me stood a vampire. Sarah reads her grandfather's journal in stunned disbelief. What was once her grandfather's responsibility has passed to her father and now to her. She has become the Warden. Her life will never be the same.

I really enjoyed this short book, and could not put it down once I started. It takes a truly new approach to the traditional vampire story, with the perspective of a vampire "caretaker", one of the helpful humans usually glossed over in other stories. The tension is set up very early in the story, but there are so many characters and most of them are only briefly addressed. I was very confused when the main character's name seemed to slip from Sarah to "I" - what is going on there? Alex and Michael's stories sound like they could each have a whole prequel story leading into the current book. The sibling relationship between Sarah and Katie just didn't coming across at all. Until Alex talks about Selena, you never know that this is the name of Sarah and Katie's mother.
This story pulls you right in at the beginning, but it feels like many of the details are still in the author's head and need to be put into the story to create a foundation capable of supporting a series of books. Background on the vampire political structure in the story is incomplete at best. Why Dr. Fleming is involved with the vampires is never explained. Who will replace him when he dies? A son perhaps? How is it that Sarah never actually sits down and reads her father's journal, but suddenly knows all about vampires and the meadow? An old boyfriend pops up and disappears, but is never tied to anything else in the story. What is Sarah's Native American heritage, and why has most of her Native American blood has become so diluted, especially if the family has known it was happening for three generations? There are so many potentially interesting pieces missing. At the beginning of the story she has a pet dog and a horse she has never ridden; at the end she also has a cat that I can't recall mention of earlier in the book.
I would be thrilled to see a re-written version of the first book before getting in to the rest of the series. It could become a top seller instead of a $.99 bargain. The first book was just too short and needed some "fleshing out", in several ways.

Sarah Brightman has the unique task of being a Vampire's Warden. Only, according to Sarah, vampires don't exist.
Sarah's life as an innkeeper is flipped upside down by the journal of her grandfather and the arrival of the Counsel of Vampires. As she learns more and more about Vampires she finds herself drawn to the very Vampire she is to keep imprisoned.
When her sister is kidnapped by Vampires, Sarah has to make the ultimate choice: save her sister or keep the dangerous Vampire locked up.
The Vampire's Warden is a really good story that I gobbled up in one sitting. It pulls you in pretty quickly and before you know it you've read the whole dang thing.
I enjoyed the story and the characters very much. I was a bit dissapointed with the ending, however. I felt it left the story open too much, almost as if this book, this story didn't have a conclusion. It was much like watching your favorite TV show only to have it end with a 'to be continued' flashing across the bottom.
Now I have to anxiously wait for the next in the series to find out what happens, and the why's behind all that happened in the orginal book.
If you enjoy cliffhangers.. pick this up now!

I enjoyed this book but like some others think that it would benefit from a rewrite providing more detail. It seemed to end very suddenly and I was left feeling a bit ripped off as I didn't feel the story had gotten anywhere yet, I would have happily rated it 5 stars if it had have gone on to further develop the story line and answer some questions rather than leaving everything up in the air, it really didn't feel like a complete book.
