Orchids for Lila
Blurb
Lila Ray has spent the last three years focused on getting her college degree, ignoring men that aren’t worth her time. Everything changes when she meets Jack Hall. He’s tall, handsome, confident, and completely irresistible, turning Lila’s world upside-down as she loses control of her senses and gives herself to him.
Lila and Jack share intense sexual chemistry, and she soon discovers why he’s so irresistible—he’s a vampire. Lila is torn between her fear of what he is and her uncontrollable desire to be with him.
As the emotional and sexual bonds between them deepen, the secrets pile up, and Lila struggles to understand what it means to be in a relationship with a vampire. Despite her list of never-ending questions, Jack cannot tell her anything … yet. Lila learns that love and lust can bud in a vampire sex club and blossom in a botanical garden, but will their love be enough to keep them together? And can she leave the human world she’s known and everyone in it for eternity?
