We are so happy to be part of Don't Bite the Bridesmaid Cover Reveal! Check it out!
What you guys think? I want those lashes!!
Alice Shepard needs one thing: a date for her sister's wedding. And not just any date. A hunk who will make her fiancé rue the day he left her for her best friend. Her drop-dead gorgeous neighbor fits the bill—even if he is a bit quirky and never comes out during the day—and Alice has downed just enough appletinis to ask him. But she makes it quite clear that there will be no funny business.
Spending a week on a cruise ship full of humans while sleeping close to his sexy next-door neighbor sounds like a helluva bad idea to vampire Noah Thorpe. But his friends need time to get him out of a shotgun wedding—a vampire bonding that will tie his fate to a female vampire he's never met. And Alice's offer comes at just the right time.
What could possibly go wrong?
EXCERPT
“That
sounded like it hurt,” he said, kneeling in front of her and taking her foot
into his hand.
“It’s
fine. I’m just a klutz.” Her toe throbbed slightly, calling her a liar with
every beat of her pulse.
He
grinned at her red toe. “You didn’t seem like a klutz on the volleyball court
today. I think you were trying to hide your blush. No doubt, terribly perverse
thoughts about me were flying through your head.”
She gaped
at him.
“Your toe
is fine,” he announced, but he didn’t release her foot. He looked up and met
her eyes, and the intensity of his gaze swept over her. Desire hit her like a
bag of bricks, a swift blow that robbed her of her breath and made her whole
body ache.
“I was
thinking no such things,” she said, wishing her breathlessness didn’t give her
away.
“Liar.”
“We
aren’t right for each other. And what happened last night isn’t happening
again.” It wasn’t. It couldn’t. There was no way she’d be able to stop things
again like she did the night before. Not if he kept looking at her like that.
And he was a vampire, just like Olivia. And she’d run off after swearing to
love her brother forever. What would stop Noah from doing the same? Vampires
weren’t normal people. She had to remember that.
“You’re
right. We aren’t right for each other.”
Anger flashed
through her, fanning her desire in a most annoying way. The greatest defense is
a good offense. “We’re not. In fact, I can’t think of anyone less suitable for
me.”
“Oh?” He
quirked an eyebrow at her and she ignored it. How could he look so scrumptious
and be so annoying at the same time?
“No.
Besides, I’m not looking to be tied down.”
A feral
grin blossomed on his face. “Don’t worry, Miss Shepard, if I tied you down I’d
be sure to untie you in the morning.”
