Stranded Vampire

Justice Bloodworth, my father's best friend, is easily fifteen years older than me. However, he is not your average human - he is an alien "vampire" whose species drinks blood from their mate during intimate moments. This, along with the fact that he has promised my father never to touch his daughter, are three very valid reasons for me to stay away from him.

Yet, when we find ourselves stranded overnight in a remote, rustic hunting cabin, something changes. Justice's dark beard, threaded with gray, suddenly becomes irresistible. And when he bares his fangs and growls, the proximity of my scent throws him into a blood frenzy. Apparently, he wants me, but his promise to my father holds him back.

As I find myself torn between my desire for Justice and my sense of duty to uphold his vow, I can't help but wonder: should I help him maintain this promise, or should I succumb to the temptation?

This dilemma is part of a collection of nine standalone stories by bestselling steamy romance authors, Hope Ford, Olivia T. Turner, and Michele Mills. In this storm of passion and intrigue, the lines between right and wrong become blurred, and the heat turns up to a scorching level.

Justice Bloodworth, with his tall, dark, and handsome appearance and his sharp, white fangs, is a character that captivates from the moment he appears on the page. His inner conflict, torn between his primal urges and his sense of honor, adds a delicious layer of complexity to the story.

As the narrative unfolds, the reader is drawn deeper into the forbidden and thrilling world of these alien "vampires" and their intimate relationships. The authors masterfully weave together elements of suspense, romance, and the supernatural, creating a reading experience that is both atmospheric and sensual.

The writing is sharp, the characters are well-developed, and the pacing is perfect, keeping the reader hooked from the very first page.
