My heart jumped into my throat and my stomach tied itself into a dozen different knots.

I know, right? I was a sexy, irresistible BV with totally fab hair, an impeccable fashion sense and an unbelievably high orgasm quotient. Finding a male BV on my bed shouldn’t have been anything out of the ordinary.

It wasn’t.

It was finding a fully clothed male BV on my bed that had me wigged out.

He wore a blue and tan western shirt, Wrangler jeans starched within an inch of their life and a pair of Tony Lama brown snakeskin cowboy boots. A dark brown felt cowboy hat sat next to him on the bed.

I caught another whiff of apples and sugar, reaffirming that he was, indeed, a born vampire. At the same time, there was something else in the air. Something sharp and potent that made my nose burn. My eyes watered and I blinked before giving him the once-over. He had blond hair and mesmerizing green eyes. He looked in his thirties, indicating that he’d lost his virginity later than most.

Translation? Socially challenged.

Nix the I-want-to-have-wild-meaningless-monkey-sex agenda that usually motivated most males of my species.

This vampire was here for an entirely different reason.

My survival instincts kicked into high gear and a growl worked its way up my throat.

“Easy.” He held up his hands. “I only want to talk.”

Talk?

A male vampire?

Now I was really freaked.

I growled again and flashed some serious fang.

He shot to his feet, but his gaze remained calm and steady. “Look, I’m not here to hurt you.”

“As if.”

“I heard there was a matchmaker in town,” he added, his voice smooth and enchanting, “and I wanted to see for myself.”

Not that I was enchanted, of course. That parlor trick only worked on humans. Socially challenged, all right. Any male BV worth his weight knew the way to a female’s heart was to plop down some green.

He didn’t pull out his wallet. Instead, he stared at me, his eyes brightening and glowing for a long moment before cooling back to their normal shade. “You’re a vampire,” he finally declared. “I never expected that.”

“Yeah, well, the world is full of surprises. I never expected to find Wyatt Earp breaking and entering my room.” I planted my hands on my hips and eye-balled him. “What’s the deal?”

“My name is DeWalt Carrigan. I own the Circle C, about five miles outside of town,” he said as if the words were supposed to mean something. When I didn’t seem clued in, he added, “It’s the biggest spread in Texas.”

“And this impresses me how?” Every born vamp in existence had a successful something or other. My parents ran a printing and copy dynasty. Remy provided security to celebrities and politicians. Nina One’s family did hotels. Nina Two? Feminine hygiene products.

You name it, there was a vamp out there raking in the moolah.

Except for the dating game and yours truly.

Not that I was failing miserably. Hardly. I just wasn’t cultivating enough to warrant a full-sized rake. No, I was still using one of those handheld gardening babies.
