I’m skipping ahead a little this week. Arturo and Sofia still aren’t quite seeing eye to eye, and she’s still sending him telepathic messages he doesn’t want to hear. 🙂
Thank you for stopping by!
Excerpt:
Before seeing her, I’d been a little pissed off about this partnership. I could just pick up the poison and make the drops myself. Bloodbloom, the vampire in charge of the rebellion in Maryland, thinks it’s safer with two of us to protect and deliver the poison. Lucas backed him on it, and it sort of makes sense. Sofia looks like she can take care of herself, but where I come from, a lady is still a lady, and it’s better if she has a man around for a dangerous job like this.
You do realize it’s no longer 1942, right? This lady doesn’t need any man to protect her.
“Now who’s full of herself? I’m not here to protect you, baby doll, but the cargo.”
And a bit more:
“Baby doll? You really are still living in the last century. I told you, my name is Sofia.”
“I’ll try to remember that.”
“Good.” She presses so close to me that our mouths almost touch. I’m practically swimming in those gorgeous eyes. Her hands glide under my jacket and over my chest. My heart thumps faster. As much as I want her, we have a job to do. I nearly remind her of it when she whispers in my ear.
“Are you ready to get to work?” Her breath tickles. Stepping back, she smiles.

Arturo – As a mortal, I was a hit man. I’m not proud of it. Since becoming a vampire, I’ve done my best to turn my life around, but violence is in my nature. When demons take over the world, I jump into the rebellion against them. Then I cross paths with a sexy young vampire with more attitude than an alpha werewolf. Like me, she’s no stranger to betrayal, but that won’t stop me from winning her heart.
Sofia – Demons destroyed my world. Now I dedicate my life to the rebellion against them. I’m temporarily partnered with a gorgeous vampire from Boston who exasperates me, mostly because he’s impossible to resist. I’ve been betrayed before, but is it time to take a risk for love?

Love how she is toying with his attraction to her. Great snippet.
