-- cannot see a vampire's reflection in a mirror
-- garlic and crosses repel them
-- vampire's sleep in coffins during the day
-- sunshine will kill them or a stake through the heart
-- vampires turn into bats for ease of flying!
The great thing about writing a paranormal is the writer can twist the rules. You just need to view the hit show True Blood to realize how much fun the writer had breaking the canon. It certainly makes a more interesting story.
In Last Chance, my vampire can play in the sunshine and doesn't turn into a bat! He has his own totem and is from a specific vampire clan - with their own set of powers and weaknesses. I've kept some of the canon but most of all, I wrote outside the box. I hope my readers enjoy it.
I'm thrilled to announce than my vampire M/M Romance - Last Chance-is now available at Loose Id!
Aric Christian is the wildly smart PhD candidate specializing in Molecular Biology. With a willowy body bordering on thin, slight hips, and even slighter waist, Aric's hard muscles and steel strength bends but doesn't break. Long blackish hair dips in his hazel eyes when he's not wearing his rimless glasses. At times, he turns into quite a different creature, and is working desperately to seek a cure.
Stu Hamilton is the wildly popular college wide receiver, and big man on campus. He's tall, broad shouldered, finely tuned and has broad hands, perfect to jump and catch the ball. He's all muscle and grace and blue, blue eyes. Mussed blond hair layered and tapered down to his nape fuels his reputation as the guy who breezes through life. Hidden from his friends is his family's secret - he's from a long line of vampire-slayers. Turning away from that life, he wants nothing to do with blood feuds, men of the dark night and killing.
Then Aric bumps into Stu, or rather his football, and their lives are forever intertwined. Will these born enemies find a way toward love?
Happy Reading!
