It’s no secret that I love vampires. I love pretty much any
and all types of paranormal creatures to varying degrees and in different kinds
of ways. And to be honest, I am a little crazy about worldbuilding and using
lots of different types of magic and creatures in my books. So when it came to
writing a book geared toward Entangled Publishing’s new Covet imprint, which is
a line that emphasizes the romance story over the worldbuilding, it was quite a
challenge for me, but a fun one!
Most of my focus moved to the characters. Sure there are
some quirky side characters, and a heroine who is (in my opinion) quite
interesting on her own, but a lot of the story focuses on the main supernatural
character, a vampire named Noah. He’s also the smexy love interest.
Noah is a two hundred year old vampire who spent much of his
early vampire life fighting in a hidden war between vampire factions. But the
war is over (mostly), and now Noah must find his place in a world filled mainly
with humans. Noah is very human in a lot of ways. He has loved and lost, he runs
a small company out of his home, and he yearns for Alice, his next door
neighbor—although he prefers to pretend he doesn’t.
When Noah is forced to share a cabin on a cruise ship with
Alice, he’s also forced to realize that he hasn’t really been living a full
life. And that he wants things he feels like he shouldn’t. Noah is quite the
vampire, but that is a secret. So in this book, he has to rely on his human
side to win over the heroine. Luckily, Noah’s vampire traits are secondary to
his charm, protectiveness, and good heart.
It also probably doesn’t hurt that he’s quite the hottie.

When you read a book with a supernatural love interest, do
you find yourself falling for the tough supernatural creature, or the man
behind the powers?

Book Description:
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?

the cruise ship setting sounds fun!
I'm usually more intrigued by the man behind the powers. Great guest post -- thanks for offering this giveaway!
This is a new twist, a vampire cruising. I always think of a lot of sunshine when cruising, it will be interesting to see how the story works around that.
Congratulations on the publication of Don't Bite the Bridesmaid! Love the title. Noah seems like a very different and interesting vampire.
This sounds interesting
I love going on cruises. what a romantic setting!
