GENRE: Paranormal Romance, Dark
Fantasy

Ben
wants Laura to reconsider staying overnight at Demon’s Grotto, and he has
information about the club’s history that should convince her. He tells her
three creepy love stories, hoping she will change her mind.
Rise of the Creature:
When a mad doctor brings a dead man back to life, only his beautiful assistant
can make that life worth living.
The Demon Within: A man
on the run stops to rest at a rooming house, not knowing that it’s the hunting
ground of a gorgeous succubus bent on devouring handsome guests.
Don’t Cry, Wolf: An ad
for a maintenance man at a bed and breakfast is answered by a former soldier
who’s harboring a hairy secret. The business’s lovely co-owner becomes involved
with this sullen hunk who’s more than she imagined possible.
After hearing these
stories of love and murder, will Laura decide to spend the night at Demon’s
Grotto?

EXCERPTS:
There
must be something she could do to help him.
He
shuddered, his eyes closed, and dropped his hands to the floor, his fingers
clawing the wood. A sound that was almost a growl rumbled in his chest.
She
wanted to run. Instead she caressed his hair. After a moment, his breathing
evened out and his tense muscles relaxed.
“Sorry
about this,” he said, his head still bowed so that his dark hair concealed his
face.
“You
don’t have to apologize, but I wish you’d tell me what this is all about.”
“It’s
just anxiety.”
“Like
PTSD?”
He
lifted his gaze to hers. His face was pale. Tendrils of hair clung to his damp
forehead. “I guess. In a way,” he said, knitting his eyebrows. He shifted his
position to sit with his back against the wall. Again he closed his eyes.
“It’s
freezing in here,” Holly said, rising to close the window. “Go back to bed.”
He
also stood, again so near to her that if she just leaned a bit closer, their
mouths would touch. Something ignited deep in his eyes and for a moment she thought
he might kiss her. Instead he walked to the bed and sat on it.
“Do
you need me to stay with you for a while?” she asked.
“No.
Go back to sleep.”
She
studied him for a moment. He was staring blankly, as if somewhere else in his
mind. “See you in the morning, Declan.”
He
didn’t reply, so she headed toward the door. Just when she reached it, he
called, “Thank you, Holly.”
Glancing
over her shoulder, she smiled slightly. “You’re welcome.”
Holly
returned to her room, but it was a long time before she fell asleep.
