Yes, Zombies need love, too. Just ask author Suzan Harden.
Excerpt
While investigating
the kidnapping of a popular TV actress, tabloid reporter Samantha Ridgeway has
stumbled across the story of a life-time—vampires and other mythical creatures
are real. On the run from mad scientists who’ve already killed her and brought
her back to life, Sam finds an ally in vampire enforcer Duncan St. James.
I whirled back to face him. “What
the hell were you doing in my apartment?” I liked my privacy, and I really
didn’t appreciate everyone traipsing through my place like it was Wal-Mart.
“Deducing why you were following
me.”
“I told you why Thursday night. I’m
writing a follow-up on your rescue—”
“—of Ms. Alton from the Sunshine
Believers.” Duncan pursed his lips. I couldn’t take my eyes from them. Tingles
ran up and down my spine at the memory of his kiss when I yanked him between
the carnival tents earlier this evening. “At the time, I had no reason to
believe you. And as I pointed out Thursday night by the river, you were
stalking me.”
I dragged my attention away from
his lips. “Oh, really? And that gives you carte blanche to commit B&E?”
He shrugged. “While Tiffany
believed you were harmless, I was not as confident you were not employed by
Mallory.”
“For crying out loud! Why does
everyone think I’m working for someone else? Doesn’t it occur to you people
umf—” His mouth covered mine with a possessiveness that literally took my
breath away. The blankets fell to the floor, and my fingers wound through his
hair.
All of my indignation disappeared
in the onslaught of his kiss. His hands wrapped around my waist to pull me even
closer, his body against mine overloading my senses. Maybe it was the
adrenaline rush from the last few days. Maybe it was something else. I wasn’t
sure what, but I didn’t want the kiss to end.
Tongues and lips tangled and
explored. Extra-sharp teeth nipped my lower lip, not hard enough to break the
delicate skin, but a thrill of dangerous pleasure rippled through me at the
risk. The rich scent of sandalwood rose, enveloping me in its embrace as its
master roamed over the sensitized skin under my t-shirt.

Well, I'm up at 5:00 a.m. and now I'm ready to go back to "bed";) What a way to start the day! I think I'm going to go snuggle next to that Aussie man and see if he wants a good morning wake up call...:)
