What are you playing for? 

 

Five winners will each receive a copy of my adult rated historical vampire novel, Can I Keep You 


Can I Keep You features vampire Kane who picks up heroine Laura in a taven with nothing more on his mind than a night of fun followed by a human snack. Things don't go quite to plan, but is it really possible for a human to tame a vampire?

When Kane picks up a runaway on the streets of Victorian England his only thought is to have a few days of amusement and a decent meal. He is a vampire, after all – it's what he does. But Laura has to be the most unconvincing whore he's ever met. She soon finds out that there are ways other than brute force and strength to bring a vampire to his knees. As time passes, she becomes the catalyst for his journey of redemption, bringing back all-too-painful memories of Harry, the gentle man he once was. It's not an easy road. Along the way they encounter forces of evil that have other plans for Laura and Kane. And the question neither of them really wants to answer hovers in the background. Does he turn her into a vampire like himself and risk losing her? Or will a human lifetime together be enough?

Excerpt

Neither of them spoke as the carriage clattered through the night. Soon Laura was aware that there were fewer houses and they’d left the town behind. Lights no longer shone comfortingly from parlour windows. She huddled further into the corner of the padded seat, a terrible sense of foreboding settling over her.

The man called Kane, her dubious rescuer, sat opposite, little more than a dark shape. His features were obscured by shadow, but she felt him watching her, as if by some diabolical means, he could see in the dark. Hadn’t she already thought him the devil back in the alleyway when he’d killed the sailor? Snapped his neck as if it were a mere twig?

The memory made her shrink back and pull her torn dress together to hold it in place. Perhaps she wasn’t imagining his quiet scrutiny. Slowly, she shifted her legs so they no longer brushed against his while he sprawled comfortably back. When he made no move to touch her she closed her eyes and steeled herself for the task ahead. A task she had never imagined would be so difficult.

Yes, he looked and smelled much better than the sailor and had saved her from possibly the worst experience of her life. Still a man, though. One whose money she had accepted and who would now expect his due. Clenching her fist around the coins, she hoped they would be sufficient to buy her a new gown. If her appearance were more presentable she might ensnare a rich man in search of a mistress and this life may not be so terrible after all. It didn’t seem so when she considered the alternative.

Her thoughts were interrupted by the carriage coming to a halt. She leaned anxiously towards the window to see where they’d arrived.

“Not there yet.” Kane made no move to get up. “Stopping to open the gates.”

The action was repeated on the other side and the carriage lurched forward once more, jolting her out of her seat. She would have fallen had Kane’s arm not moved, with incredible speed, to steady her. He caught her by the forearm in an iron grip that made her flinch. Immediately he loosened his fingers and she pulled away scooting back into the seat once more and wondering, with a sinking heart, exactly what she’d let herself in for. Here was a man who knew what he wanted and would take without question.
