Book Description:
In an opposites-attract story, the vampire Elisabeta is searching for more than just pleasure and the bludfrenzy.
When she crosses paths with Nelo, a holy man with a rebellious streak, her world is turned upside down.
As she navigates a new path filled with self-discovery, romance, and redemption, she must confront the challenges that threaten to tear them apart.
Will their love transcend the judgment of others and the shadows of their pasts?
Excerpt:
“Tell me about these selfless acts which will heal me.” Her lips
caressed the glass as she sipped her drink.
Nelo’s breath caught at the sight. Remembering the conversation, he
puzzled his chin with forefinger. “Good deeds will fill your days and
contemplation your nights. At the end of your healing, a worthy, seductive male
awaits your recovery.” He patted his chest. “The male would be me.”
“Cruor, you lack humility.”
“It is a flaw I work on.”
“In the meantime, you’ll assign me to a soup kitchen until I feel
better about myself?”
“To something. Not a soup kitchen.” He tilted his glass, swallowing a
sip and noticing how Elisabeta watched him.
“How do you know your solution will work?” she asked.
He rolled the amber liquid in the tumbler. “I am the Cruor, a male wise
beyond his years.”
“With only a small flaw.”
“So
tiny. Not worth mentioning.” He threw back his drink, rose, and shoved out his
hand.
After retiring from her career in education, T. M. Smith settled in to write something more creative than lesson plans on split infinitives and inner-school memos on noise in the hallway.
Taking great interest in the lives of vampires, demons, elves, mages, and other magical beings, she began a paranormal romance series of five books with alpha males who aren't always nice and females who have no problem keeping them in line. The Blood Coven Series is complete. Her new project is a series of stand-alone, short novellas set in the Blood Coven World. In the meantime, she is working on a longer surprise project.
Here are more orts, scraps, and fragments from her life. (a homage to Virginia Wolf and Shakespeare.) She moved from sunny Las Vegas to the less-than-sunny Pacific Northwest. Here she has adventures with her daughter, son-in-law, and two granddaughters who also moved to the area. She also enjoys a membership at Bainbridge Artisan Resource Network (BARN), a local organization that supports the arts and offers classes and events in eleven different studios. It was at BARN where her critique group began. With equal time given to in-depth comments on each other's works, snarky remarks, and laughter, they have now been together nearly eight years.
