EXCERPT:
Dena took a deep breath turning the knob then pushed the door open. Pitch-black darkness greeted her. Dimitri’s monstrous, canopy bed sat in the middle of the room. Black curtains enclosed the bed in a cocoon. Dena cautiously stepped inside and shut the door behind her then waited few moments giving her eyes time to adjust while kicking her boots off. Her feet shuffled across the floor. She hesitated before the drawn curtains unsure of what to do when the curtains jerked open and Dimitri grabbed her. Dena squeaked when he tossed her on his mattress. She couldn’t see a thing but felt his breath on her face. “Did you think I hung from my toes like a bat?”
There was that sense of humor she loved so much bringing a feminine chuckle in the darkness. With one hand, she reached for him. He was close. Her fingers traced the outline of his face, his eyebrows and his lips. “I thought you slept in a red, velvet-lined coffin with organ music blaring surrounded by candelabras with black candles.”
A big grin spread across Dimitri’s handsome face under her fingertips. “I’m a claustrophobic vampire who prefers rock and roll.”

ReplyDeleteWhich character from the book do you most relate to?
ReplyDeleteHi Bernie! I relate mostly to Dena! She's a soul who loves Christmas and can't ignore a person in need. Thanks for commenting.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good book.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rita! It is a good book.
DeleteThe excerpt and description have caught my attention. How did you come up with this interesting twist? Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHi Bernice! I have a love for stained-glass art. When I started seeing stained-glass snowflakes on a site I frequent, the idea for a Christmas book started to develop. I wanted the female to be strong with a great backstory and I've always been intrigued with forensics. After a little internet research, the entire story grew in my mind until I couldn't ignore it. Paranormal romance is my default, so I turned Dimitri into a vampire to give it that magical Christmas feel. It's a weird twist I know, but it worked, and I adore the book. Thanks for the question!
DeleteWonderful excerpt!! I am very intrigued! I am looking forward to reading more!
