See this guy above and to the right? He'll keep you warm this winter, don't you think? Well, guess what... He is also the cover model for the newest novel in my Nocturnal Surrender Series, Night Therapy. You can check out his sexy abs on the cover below, but first, how about that hot excerpt I promised? This is, of course, the hero and heroine from Night Therapy, Johnathan and Stephanie.

EXCERPT FOR ADULTS ONLY

Stephanie shivered as she sucked in Johnathan’s blood. It tasted so sweet, brought her so much closer to him. And feeling his emotions only made the moment more intimate.

She moaned as she bit into his throat repeatedly. When he groaned, a wave of his desire crashed into her. Her core ached, pulsating from the need to have him inside her.

Unsure how much she could safely drink, she eased her fangs out of his throat and lapped the remaining drops of blood as his wounds healed.

She looked up at him and licked her lips. “I love how you taste. Is my blood that good?”

“Oh, baby, you have no idea.” He grinned. “Can I have a little?”

The rasp in his voice vibrated her chest. She nodded, and he swept her hair off her shoulder. His fingertips slithered along her neck, and a shiver crawled up her spine. She clutched his muscular arms as his mouth closed in on her throat.

He continued strumming her skin with his fingers, and then his lips did the same. Slowly, the kisses deepened until his fangs scraped her sensitive flesh. The slight sting filled her with pleasure. He pulled her closer and held her so tight she wanted to melt into him. His cock pressed against her as he bit into her neck.

She wrapped her arms around him with all her newly-acquired strength. A tingling sensation swept through her when he sucked in her blood. Her head spun from their shared arousal. She ground herself against him, and her core thrummed with longing.

He backed her into the wall, groaning as he drank. She stood on her toes while he dipped slightly so his cock hit the right spot. When he released her neck, a brief burning sensation prickled her skin where his fangs had penetrated—no doubt the wounds healing.

At that moment, it finally sank in that she was no longer human. That she was…immortal.

The world is mine.

He is mine.

It was time to have some fun.

She spun their entwined bodies around, pinned him to the wall, grabbed his face, and kissed him so hard her fangs pierced his lip. He grunted and cupped her ass, pulling her to him repeatedly. Grinding into her.

As she sucked on his lip, gathering every last drop of blood, she yanked his shirt out of his pants and ran her hands along those hard abs she’d been dying to touch.

His desire coursed through her like her own, multiplying hers, driving her crazy. She kissed him with total abandon. Ground her needy clit against him. Slipped her hand inside the tight confines of his jeans and grabbed what she wanted. He jerked and moaned from her touch.

Apparently her inhibitions had disappeared with her mortality.

Who wouldn’t want to feel like this?

Goosebumps rose over her entire body as she reveled in her new life. In what it all meant.

In her power.

Unable to endure any more, she pulled away from his mouth and yanked her hand out of his jeans. “Take me upstairs. Now.”

Johnathan cradled her face. “You know I wouldn’t let anyone else talk to me like that.” He kissed her defiantly. “But damn, did that turn me on even more.”

He eased their bodies away from the wall and reached down to lift her. She clamped her legs around his waist and kissed his neck as he carried her to the bedroom.

Though no lights were on inside his room, she could see perfectly. As soon as he laid her on the bed and crawled on top of her, she stripped off his shirt and tossed it aside. She seized the opportunity to unbutton and unzip his jeans while he loomed above her on his hands and knees. Before she could slip a hand inside, he clasped her wrists and forced them above her head.

“Let’s get one thing straight here. I am far older and far stronger than you.” He eased his body down and ground his hard cock into her. “And I am going to make love to you first. Then you can take charge if you want, but only when I’m through showing you what pleasure really is.”

Smug asshole. “Someone sure is full of himself.”

“It’s not that.” He leaned down and kissed her softly. “Think about it. Heightened senses combined with feeling each other’s emotions. This will be the best you’ve ever had for those reasons alone.”

Still sounds smug. She wriggled beneath him and raised her hips to grind against him, hoping to make some of his control slip.

“You are feisty. Alex was right about you.” He held her wrists in one hand with a vice-like grip while his other hand claimed one of her breasts. “You acted all sweet and innocent in your office, but something tells me there’s a side of you I’m really going to enjoy getting to know. Maybe even a side that’s a little like my bad side.”

Sure she was no match for his strength, but she couldn’t let a statement like that go. She clamped her legs around him and pulled him tight against her, trapping his hand between them. Maybe it only worked because she had caught him off guard, or maybe he had simply allowed it, but either way, she enjoyed her small victory.

“That might be a side of me you don’t want to know.” She raised her head and bit his lip.

What’s gotten into me? It was as if all the emotions she’d kept locked inside for years were exploding out of her.

And she liked it.

“Fuck, Steph. Do you have any idea what you’re doing to me?”

Actually, she did. She felt it deep inside. His arousal had grown exponentially.

She pushed up into him one more time, trying to ease her growing desire. “Yes, Johnathan, I do. And it’s your own fault for not letting me take you. You’d be inside me, fucking me right now.”

She lashed out to bite him again, but this time, he must have seen it coming. He jerked his head away, and she chomped down on nothing but air.

“Prick.” Oops. She hadn’t meant to say that out loud. If her hands weren’t on lockdown, she would have covered her mouth.

“Guess you’ve gotten to know the real me. Do you still want me?” He squeezed her breast and pinched her nipple.

Shockwaves tore through her body, coming to rest in her core, which throbbed incessantly. She moaned. Damn these heightened senses.

Vampire Johnathan McCombs has spent the last century isolating from humanity whenever possible, trying to come to terms with a past that haunts him. When he finally realizes he needs help dealing with his issues, he seeks out a mortal psychologist, hoping her ethical boundaries of confidentiality will allow him to reveal his secrets. He tries to ignore his growing attraction for his therapist, but when circumstances throw them together outside the professional setting of her office, will he be able to contain his passion?

But when her hot new client drops the bomb on her that he is a vampire, she has no idea what to do or how to react. Now she must look at her life in a whole new light. She has inadvertently put her life in danger and become part of a dark world she thought was only pretend.

In one night, everything changes. Old rivals pull Stephanie into their fight, and Johnathan must make a life or death decision. But can Stephanie forgive him for the irreversible choice he makes with her life? Can the couple find peace with their individual problems to have a chance at a lasting relationship? And how will the brewing war between vampires and Hunters affect them?

Nocturnal Bites Giveaway...

BLURB

This anthology contains the first three novelettes/novellas of the series. Each of these books focuses on vampire Bastian Evanko, starting over two hundred years ago in England with Nothing Lasts Forever and the tragic series of events that triggers his desire for retribution and earns him the punishment of two hundred years in exile.

Fast forward to present day Lansford, PA: The Sin City of the East. The remaining stories take place in and around Lansford. Nocturnal Surrender is the reunion of Bastian and his brother Donovan, as well as his meeting—and biting—stripper Darling Nikki. Tension mounts as Bastian looks to exact his revenge, but he gets a little sidetracked by the possibility of falling in love again.

Just when Bastian feels secure in his budding relationship with Nicole French, AKA Darling Nikki, she stumbles upon the secret of his vampiric identity in Midnight Confessions. To make matters worse, Donovan needs Bastian's help in the war with the vampire Hunters. Only problem is, Nicole gets dragged into the mix. Many secrets are exposed after midnight.

In the bonus short story, Auburn Lust, twin courtesan vampires Rochelle and Laureline Montague entertain two of their favorite vampire clients for the evening: Christof Rosenbaum and Donovan Evanko. Emotions and lust run wild in this erotic story.

And in another bonus, Interview with Bastian, the vampire lets it all hang out since this is the uncensored, extended version of his interview. At times he shares a little too much information, but then he does prefer to live by his own rules.

To get your FREE eBook copy of, Nocturnal Bites, simply head over to THE BOOK'S SMASHWORDS PAGE and use the coupon code GD99E (not case-sensitive) by the end of this hop, 12/16/13.
