I'm great at plots, horrible remembering titles.
So anyway, I read this book about ten years ago. It's a vampire novel about a married woman who joins a drama club and develops a crush on a handsome man in the club. She has dreams about him at night. Anyway, he ends up being a vampire and sneaks into her room and turns her (he'd been spying on her dreams and knew that she had a crush on him and had the romantic idea that if he turned her they would be together forever).
Instead of his expected romantic result, she freaks out and runs away. Most of the book is about her learning to be a vampire. Her hair and nails grow at night so she has to keep cutting them, she learns to 'fly' (though if I remember correctly it wasn't really flying) and she learns how to 'charm' people. She goes to Vegas at one point and 'talks' to the roulette ball and ends up winning tons of money.
She runs into the vampire that turned her again and they have a long talk about why he did what he did and her reaction to it. She also goes home again at some point and sees through the living room window that her husband has remarried. He thinks he sees her outside and runs after her but she hides and he ends up going back in the house.
There is a point in the book where a vampire hunter finds her and dilutes her blood using aspirin, which makes her really weak. He ties her down trying to lure her 'sire' in so he can kill him.
There's also a scene where she kills a drunk at a beach party and burns the corpse, then crushes the bones into powder and scatters it over the ocean.
Anyone have ANY clue?
