A delightful new comedy about witches, vampires, and the search for the perfect man

The line between magic and sanity is very thin.
That’s part of why I, Garnet Lacey, quit cold turkey.
Never touch the stuff. No exceptions.

But magic is so addictive...and my inner Goddess Lilith is hard to resist. Besides, restraint isn’t easy when you manage Wisconsin’s premiere occult bookstore, and get customers like Sebastian Von Traum—piercing brown eyes, a sexy accent, and a killer body in denim and black leather. The only thing missing is an aura. Which means he’s dead...

And that means trouble. I guess I’m a sucker for it. The Vatican witch hunters are on to us. My long-lost vampire ex has crawled out of the woodwork looking for action. And Sebastian’s frustrated ex is stirring in her grave.

So what’s a girl to do if she’s hot for a dead man walking? Run like hell—and take full advantage of the nights...

“A thoroughly enjoyable read.” —Julie Kenner, USA Today bestselling author of Carpe Demon

“A great way to pass an evening.” —Lynsay Sands, author of A Quick Bite

“What’s not to adore about a heroine who frets equally about the Vatican and ripped pantyhose, an herbalist who dresses like one of the Jets in West Side Story, and a fascinating ‘other world’ most of us could never imagine, much less write about? Tate Hallaway has a wonderful gift, Garnet is a gem of a heroine, and Tall, Dark, & Dead is enthralling from the first page. I hope this is the first of many more books from Tate Hallaway.” —MaryJanice Davidson, New York Times bestselling author of Undead and Unreturnable
