Book excerpt: "But you, Maddie, are my happily ever after. I have no doubts about that. So I need you to stick around so we can share our lives together, okay?" Just when I thought falling head over heels for a vampire couldn’t get any more complicated, the universe says, “Hold my beer.” In round two of my ever-so-interesting life, I’m healing from a near-fatal demon attack while simultaneously playing bodyguard to my hunky vampire king. Believe me, there are far more interesting games I’d prefer to play with him. Our future dangles precariously, so when a new threat emerges, it’s time for me to do what I do best. Slay. They want a fight? They’ll get one. Because nothing and no one is going to come between me and my vampire. Not if I have any say in it. Buckle up. This is one ride you won’t want to miss.
