Love's Last Bite BBT

Blurb:
Dark forces, a vampire, plus one sexy cop is a recipe for trouble.

VINCENT KAMATEROS is no longer the lonely exiled vampire running a cupcake shop, but the heir to his father’s throne.
                
JOHN REEDER is out and accepts his vampire lover, but he has to deal with his lover being destined to rule the vampire kingdom.

While Vince and John revel in their newfound love, dark forces are at work in Orbus Arcana, determined to keep the progressive Vince from becoming the next vampire king.

Time is short and decisions loom. Their irrevocable choices will change their lives forever.


Excerpt:
At the waters edge, gentle waves lapped over Vince's feet and circled his ankles before receding. His toes dug into the silky white sand. Vince took off his sunglasses and squinted into the distance looking for their vessel. The white sails of the 50-foot catamaran sailed toward the island. The yacht was identical to the one shown in the vacation brochure John kept in his office drawer. The boat was a real beauty with every convenience, including a Captain and cook.

Vince smiled as he remembered John’s excitement when Vince gave him the vacation for his birthday. Then his smile quickly faded. The approaching boat signaled time was running out. He chewed on his inner cheek. Dio. For all of his arrogance and pride, with John his courage failed.

Enough with the procrastination. He had promised John no secrets. It was time to confess.

“I have something I must tell you.”

John turned from where he was making wet footprints in the sand. He grinned and Vince’s stomach dropped. His news would surely wipe that smile off John’s face.

“I have to go back home.”

John grimaced. “Yeah, I know, but the rest did us both good. This has been great, all of it.”

Vince brought down the rim of his hat. Cowardly to shield his face but John would notice the worry in his eyes.

“I don’t mean Arizona,” Vince said. “I mean my home. Verno.”

John stopped scuffing his feet. “Oh, for how long?”

“My father wants to step down.”





Author Bio and Links:
An introvert and artist with a healthy dose of skepticism about life and love =Viki. An extrovert and academic and a die-hard romantic =Vina. It was so not a match made in heaven. But Viki and Vina discovered a mutual love of traveling around the world, the paranormal, good coffee, and a healthy admiration for their respective creativity. Sitting in a coffee shop one day, they started brainstorming about story plots and Vince and John and the car crash in the bakery. A story was born. Vina writes the sappy romance and Viki tempers it. Between them, they managed to find their boys a ‘happily ever after’.

  2. Feels like just yesterday that we were plotting Book 1 in this series, For The Bite of It. But Vince and John took over our lives (and dinner conversations - one point, my family tentatively asked me- you do know they're not real, right?). Now, we're up to writing Book 4. We hope you love the boys as much as we do.
    Cheers, Vina
