Big Al MacNab is in trouble. Recently out of prison, he’s running his late uncle’s pub in the Scottish Highlands and trying to make a success of a local music festival. But he’s haunted by his own past—as well as by two persistent ghosts. Every criminal in the country wants to kill him, the police want to put him back in prison and his mother wants him to stop swearing. He doesn’t need a sexy vampiress serving drinks in his pub, let alone showing him kinky new uses for the restraints in his cellar.
 
Draguta, a vampire in search of a cause, has come to Scotland to find her ex-lover, Karoly, who owns the Transylvanian castle she wants to turn into a vampire safe house. Biting Al releases a lot of pent-up lust that has to be assuaged. Falling in love with Al revives a compassion and humanity she no longer knows how to deal with. Worse, she knows that after helping to free Al from his problems, she has to free him from herself.

Freeing Al by Marie Treanor was different from the books I normally read, but it kept my attention all the way through and I was so glad it had a happy ending with Al and Draguta. It showed that with an open mind, even vampires can find happiness. And it was the vampiress that was fighting it, not her human lover. Overall, it was a great book and entertaining reading. I hope to read many more of Ms. Treanor&

Due to scientific advances, the humans have succeeded in making some parts of earth semi-hab
