Mary Winslow is driving to the camping grounds in Texas
where she and her late husband used to go to every
winter, when her RV hits something, or worse, was it
someone? She gets out of her vehicle along with her dog
Bailey to try to find out what happened, but in the dark
she finds nothing, and returns to her RV only to find a
badly injured, very naked—and gorgeous—man. Her phone
has died, so she hurries to a truck stop to call 911, but
when she comes back to her RV, the Adonis seems much
better. Dante Notte, the naked stranger, tells her a
mind-boggling story about he and twin brother Tomasso
being abducted; he escaped and needs to find his
brother. Somewhat bewildered, Mary agrees, all the while
wishing she were a few decades younger, because Dante is
to die for, but so much younger...
If I hadn't been a fan of Lynsay Sands already, RUNAWAY
VAMPIRE would have made an instant convert out of me! The
fantastic beginning nearly had me clapping my hands with
glee at what I could expect. I am overjoyed that the
author uses a premise that had been the subject of a
short story and decided to make a whole book out of it,
with different characters. Mary and Dante are simply
sublime; I took to them right away. He is delightfully
Italian, and totally scrumptious. Mary is a no-nonsense
woman, and the idea of her reactions to being Dante's
fated mate—a vampire's forever love—had me settling
down with a smile on my face, ready to revel in what was
coming. I read RUNAWAY VAMPIRE in one sitting, and I
could have read for hours more! This book being the
umpteenth in the series, I was absolutely amazed and awed
at how RUNAWAY VAMPIRE recaptures the wonder, the joy,
and the sheer fun of ONE QUICK BITE.
It was wonderful to watch Dante and Mary get to know each
other, while trying to dodge the villains and
searching for Tomasso. I love how Ms. Sands delicately
handled the age difference, and Mary's story is truly
captivating. The villains were hinted at in previous
books, and best of all the ending promises more than
major fireworks for the future! I believe Lynsay Sands
must be privy to those nanos, because to write another
Argeneau book this fabulous, she simply cannot be a mere
mortal!
Buckle up—the Argeneaus are back in a sexy, witty new
novel
from New York Times bestselling author Lynsay
Sands
Dante Notte has heard it said that love hurts. He just
wasn’t expecting it to run him over in an RV. Still, a
punctured lung and broken ribs are nothing compared to the
full-body shock he feels whenever he’s near the vehicle’s
driver, Mary Winslow. He needs to keep her safe from their
pursuers while he rescues his brother. Most challenging of
all, he needs to claim this smart, stubborn woman as his
life mate.
The naked, injured, insanely gorgeous younger man who
clambered into her RV insists they belong together. If Mary
wasn’t feeling their incredible connection in every inch of
her being, she wouldn’t believe it. But now that the men
who
took Dante’s twin are after her too, trusting her gut means
risking her life for an immortal who’s the very definition
of a perfect stranger.
