I recently mentioned that I read "Fade Out" by Rachel Caine. After that I moved on the next book in the Morganville Vampires series, "Kiss of Death".
"Kiss of Death" is the 8th book in the Morganville Vampires series, and it's the first time that it's set (at least primarily) outside of Morganville. Unfortunately, the series is called the Morganville Vampires, and it really does work better in Morganville. This was probably my least favorite book in the series so far.

"Fade Out" by Rachel Caine
You've probably noticed by now that I have a weak spot for fantasy/paranormal fiction in general, and especially vampires. I also really like young adult novels. The end result is that I've read a lot of vampire books ranging from the horrific to cheesy.
"The Morganville Vampires" is a young adult series by author Rachel Caine. The basic premise of the series is that a seemingly ordinary town (Morganville) is actually controlled and partially inhabited by vampires. The main characters are:
Claire (teen genius and newcomer to Morganville)
Shane (brawn over brains and Claire's boyfriend)
Eve (both bubbly and ironically goth)
Michael (boy turned ghost turned vampire, guitar god and Eve's boyfriend).
They live together at the Glass House and have lots of life threatening adventures.
"Fade Out" is the 7th "Morganville" book. (If you enjoy it, look for the next three books. The 11th "Morganville" book is due to be published this November.) In it, life seems to have found a new normal and calmed down. In Morganville, though, normal and safe never last. Eve becomes infatuated with a new friend. In fact, everyone seems to just love the new girl and Claire must battle with jealousy and suspicions. Throw in some vampire attacks, a vicious steampunk vampire computer, and reality TV references, and you have "Fade Out".
