In the rush of promoting for the Blood Series re-release I forgot to sign up for sexy snippets last week. I'm so very sorry.
I'm not going to harp on today all I will say is that the Blood Series has been and still is on tour with Read Between the Line Tours. There is a tour wide competition where you can win a ecopy of both She-Wolf and Cranberry Blood, or the exclusive series themed prize.
If you're interested just click on either of the images below; the She-Wolf graphic will take you to the hosts post and if you scroll down to the bottom you will see the rafflecopter. All you have to do is leave an entry. The Cranberry Blood graphic will take you to the tour schedule page should you wish to check out where I have been this last week and where I will be next week.
And now here's the next snippet of Cranberry Blood. We are continuing from where we left off two weeks ago, which you can read here. It's a wee bit longer because I feel super stupid and bad for missing last week. So please do forgive me. Enjoy! :)

He turned a page of his newspaper. I couldn’t place his
accent, although certain words had a dull edge to them...a Northerner, perhaps?
I inhaled again; nothing new amongst the scent of dog, pine,
bacon, and coffee, which meant he wasn’t a Vampire. Leeches smelled like
mouldy, wet earth; not an overpowering smell, but hidden underneath the
products they wore. Not that a Vampire could get in here, anyway. They could
only come in with a personal invite, and since they all wanted me dead.... No
matter what state I’d been in last night, I wouldn’t have invited one in. So, who the hell is this guy?
I walked toward him, my sword glinting in the sunlight, the
hilt gripped firmly in both hands. “Who the hell are you, and what are you
doing in my house?” I stopped three feet behind him.
“I’m not going to hurt you.”
“Wrong answer.” The tip of my sword found the firm space
between his shoulder blades. “I said, who the hell are you and what—”
“Killing me isn’t going to help.” He turned another page of
his paper.

Blurb:
Killing Vampires? Easy.
Tracking someone? Simple.
Helping, and protecting a Vampire slayer....Bloody hard work!
Thirteen years ago, Brendan Daniels made a deal with a psychic. In exchange for information on the whereabouts of a Rogue Werewolf, he promised to help and protect Sofia’s granddaughter. Unfortunately, he had no idea what he was letting himself, or his Pack, in for.
Nothing about Heather is simple, from her weird dietary needs to her life’s mission. The girl can handle herself, but the promise to protect her soon becomes a need, and one he can’t fully understand.
Vampire Slayer.
Born Infected.
Addicted to blood...but not by choice.
Heather Ryan is the current Slayer in a long family line. Like all before her, she has spent her life searching for her ancestor, Marko Pavel, the Vampire her family has sworn to kill. If that isn’t complicated enough, she is also a born "Infected", and to keep her from becoming insane or giving in to her darker side, she is on a very strict diet.
Now that her Grandmother Sofia has passed, it is up to Heather to take the family legacy into her own hands. Or at least, it would have been...if her Grandmother hadn’t sent a Werewolf to help her.
What is the irritating Brendan supposed to help her with? Sofia never told either of them. Luckily, it doesn’t take long for Heather and Brendan to find out that the Vampires have big plans, and that the Leeches have waited a long time for them both.
This title contains explicit language, violence, and some scenes of a sexual nature.
Available now from most online retailers!
