Lauren Smith | A Vampire’s Christmas List

facebooktwittergoodreadsbookbubamazonInstagramblog
It’s not often that as the holidays drawn near and we start decorating the tree and making turkey that we’re thinking about vampires. Most people like to shove those delicious yummy supernatural hotties aside after Halloween is over…but vampires are people, too *wink. So in honor of my favorite supernatural creature, I’m letting Ian and Connor, the two male vampires from my book paranormal mΓ©nage THE BITE OF WINTER, share their Christmas wish lists.

Ian’s Wish List:
- A lovely woman who has a heart of gold to share the rest of my immortal life with.
- A gingerbread house making kit so I can impress my woman with my skills and woo her into bed with tasty treats.
- Tasty blood donors
- New beds for my three adopted cats
- A sexy lingerie set to give my woman so she’ll know how beautiful I think she is

Connor’s Wish List:
- A sexy, feisty lover who will still let me spoil her rotten for the rest of our immortal lives
- 2 dozen inflatable Santas. (And no, I’m not sharing what I plan to do with them, although it may involve a comical display in my front yard to make my woman laugh)
- An extra-large box of condoms. Ian and I will need it for our sweet woman.
- Sexy lingerie for my woman, because I want to have the pleasure of ripping that tiny silk off her when I take her to bed.

I hope you all enjoyed reading what my two vampires would want for Christmas!

THE 
BITE OF WINTER

About THE BITE OF WINTER

Zoey Blake is about as far down on her luck as she can get. A car crash took her parents, leaving her destitute and on the street. When she’s attacked by another homeless person, her lifeblood drains away as her fading vision is filled with the face of a handsome stranger.

Ian Kennedy, a century old Irish vampire, never could resist rescuing a stray. As
a
few drops of his blood heals Zoey’s wounds, he realizes she’s a sweet, tempting,
flesh-and-blood woman. But there’s one problem. Connor, who made Ian promise
decades ago: no more mortal lovers.

After another vampire murdered his soulmate, Connor O’Shea swore never to let a
mortal woman pay the price for loving him. Until he feels Zoey’s skin and tastes
her lips. She makes him want to break that vow.

Zoey finds herself caught in their web of seduction. But as Christmas draws near
and her grief deepens, happiness seems far out of reach. And Ian and Connor join
forces to prove their love is sacred, special…and forever.

Warning: This book contains two scorching-hot Irish vampires, one lady with plenty of pluck but zero luck, naughty lingerie, and enough Christmas cheer to redeem even the darkest creatures.
