    About this ebook

    She doesn't believe in vampires, until one bites her.

     

    Lorelei McGiven isn't known for her great judgement calls. When she answers an ad boasting an all-expense paid vacation at an exclusive resort for people who enjoy the nightlife, the curvy normal gets a little more than she's bargained for. Imagine her surprise when she hooks up with a totally hot, totally hungry, bloodsucking vamp.

     

    The thing is, she kinda sorta doesn't realize her new boytoy is a little bit undead until after he bites her. Lorelei is furious, and worse, she's getting hungrier by the minute.

     

    Xavier DuMont is a Vampire Prince. He is determined to bring the Tenebris Clan into the 21st Century, but first, he needs to relax. What better place than the Sanguine Vita Vampire Retreat? With scrumptious delights promised to all who attend, Xavier can't resist the promise of a getaway with libations included.

    The royal bloodsucker was not planning on meeting his fated mate. But once he sniffs her out, Xavier will do anything to keep her as his own.

     

    Can Lorelei resist the temptation that is Xavier? Or will she give into her thirst and embrace being accidentally undead?

      *Formerly Titled Fangs For Nothin'

      CHAPTER ONE

      L ate again, Lorelei.

      Misty Rivers snarled as Lorelei hurried into the boutique. Yes, she was late. BFD. It happened now and again. Ugh. She ignored the skinny female’s disapproving eyes and dropped her drenched umbrella in the bin by the door. The woman thought she was the big boss at Kiki’s Closet instead of a glorified shop manager. She was Lorelei’s immediate supervisor, but she didn’t have to be such a bitch about it.

      Sorry, Misty. The bus was late, Lorelei explained.

      Why don’t you just drive then?

      Because there isn’t any parking around here, she said, quoting the same reason she used every single day.

      ‘The lot is—"

      More than makes sense for me to pay. Now, if you can bargain with them to give us some kind of discount, seeing as how they are the only lot in the area and this street is full of shops whose employees could use a discount, then maybe I could afford it.

      You shouldn’t speak of your finances like that, Lorelei. It’s so gauche.

      I didn’t bring it up, she told the other woman.

      She tried for calm, but the woman was always harping on her about one thing or other. Super thin and chic, Misty was the total opposite of Lorelei whose voluptuous frame was a lot more chubby than Monroe-esque.

      What could she say? She loved chocolate and hated squats. Going to the gym seriously skeeved her out. All those people sweating, burping, and farting when they exercised made her want to hurl. She’d tried joining an all-woman gym but couldn’t get past the whole bodily functions thing.

      Trying to adjust her diet to healthier foods to lose weight didn’t work, either. Lorelei rarely had time to cook. She was always working. And while she enjoyed dining out, she hated ordering salads in restaurants. All that chewing made her feel like a cow.

      Sigh.

      Nope. She liked real food and ate real portions. Design was her true passion though, and Kiki’s Closet was the only haute couture house willing to take her on as a rising designer. Other establishments did not see the benefit of catering to plus size women.

      Fuck them, she thought with a snarl of her own. She’d been laughed out of more than one house, and politely refused at others.

      But Lorelei was determined to make herself a name in the design world. Fuller-figured women deserved pretty things too, for fuck’s sake. Besides, she had a marvelous head for fashion. And she could sew like the devil was on her tail.

      A fact that earned her points with the actual owner of the design house, if not Misty. It might annoy the current manager of Kiki’s Closet that Lorelei was a certified in-house designer for the trendy haute couture label, but there wasn’t a thing the female could do about it. Try as she might.

      Well, I’m making a note of your tardiness for the monthly reports, Ms. McGiven.

      I bet you are, she murmured back.

      With a flip of her pin straight, chin length hair, Misty turned around and walked away, tablet in hand. No doubt, she was putting another black x on Lorelei’s employee file. Misty just hated her guts, but today Lorelei was too tired to care.

      Sigh.

      It didn’t really worry her. She knew she wouldn’t lose her job. Lorelei was talented, but the real clincher was the fact she was also Kiki’s BFF. The woman whose name was on the door.

      There was no getting rid of Lorelei. Even if Misty stared daggers all day and night, wrote her up ten times a month for being late, and scolded her every chance she got. Whatever. She spent way too much energy on Lorelei, anyway. She shook off the woman’s nasty vibes as easily as she did the rain that clung to her blonde locks and set about preparing for her workday.

      Her ass might be a tad rotund, but her hair was flawless. Flaxen and plentiful, today she swept the almost waist length mane into a high ponytail reminiscent of a 1960s glamour queen, complete with fat curls on the end. She wore black eyeliner and red lipstick over a pair of tight black pedal pushers and a flowy chiffon tunic with big daisies printed all over.

      The outfit was easy to move around in and maintained a certain cuteness that she wholeheartedly approved of. Comfort was a huge plus to Lorelei since much of her job was spent on the floor tearing out and resewing hemlines or creating new pieces from scratch to appeal to today’s woman.

      Kiki’s Closet focused on weddings and other ballroom type apparel, and she just loved working there. It was like being swept away in one of those fairytales she used to devour as a child. Of course, there was always a prince in those books, but nowadays a woman didn’t need a prince to enjoy a good party.

      Besides, princes were thin on the ground. Still, being exquisitely outfitted was not something only skinny woman should enjoy. With this belief firmly in mind, Lorelei pitched her ideas to her BFF, Kiki.

      Her former college roommate was wild and sweet, and her daddy just happened to own a slew of department stores. He had set his daughter up with her own design house after graduation, gave her enough capital to make a splash, and just like Lorelei had hoped she would, Kiki had hired her on the spot!

      That was two years ago, and she did not regret it one bit. Except for Misty. The woman was just over the top when it came to being snotty. Must be a skinny girl thing, she’d decided at first and started bringing her muffins and cookies from the corner deli. After the first week, Misty put a stop to that with a nasty retort that not everyone ate like her.

      After that, Lorelei had given the woman a wide berth. She’d worked with clients Kiki chose for her and within a month, Lorelei had single-handedly started their plus-sized line. It was one of the fastest growing markets out there, and though she could not branch out on her own just yet, it was her dream.

      Plenty of women with full figures had the money and the fashion sense to want haute couture, there were just too little offerings. With her keen eye and ability, she’d convinced her highly energetic, if not flighty, bestie to allow her to showcase some gowns in the store window.
