Blood cocktail for two… Flower and Fangs @KMNbooks #8sunday #snippetsunday
Welcome to Snippet Sunday.
Enjoy a snippet from last week: Flowers and Fangs Chapter 2 #4
This week's snippet is from Flowers and Fangs.
We're jumping ahead a few paragraphs. Derek and Wade Hayes are at the McBride's house to find out if Tim infected his girlfriend. Wade and Derek are in Sloane's bedroom, searching for clues to where the family might be. Derek is checking out Sloane's computer. This is in Derek's POV.

The first thing that popped up was the calendar with a note: Don't forget to pick up Mom, Dad and Seth at the airport. The date was set for next Monday, and the other date that caught his eye was: Dinner with Tim on Valentine's Day.
"The family is out of town. We only have to worry about Sloane." He turned in his seat to look at Wade. "She marked her calendar for the fourteenth: romantic dinner with Tim. That's tomorrow." He only took note of the date because newly turned vamps tended to hang onto their previous life for sometime after the change. Events that were important tended to be amplified into an obsession.
"I wonder if dinner includes a blood cocktail for two," Wade grumbled, then added, "Did she say where they were going for this fabulous dinner?"

Somehow, I don't believe there will be flowers and chocolates.

About Flowers and Fangs, "Stake and Dust series, Book II":
Derek Hayes and his family are preternatural hunters. Stake and dust is their motto, but Derek has a difficult time accepting his sworn duty when Sloane McBride, his ex-girlfriend from high school, is the one he's been sent to eliminate. Once infected from a Nosferatu bite, there is no turning back. Sloane has been bitten and she will eventually change.
It proves a race against time when Derek puts aside his core beliefs and teams up with Sloane. The Nosferatu wants Sloane for his own, Derek's brothers are hunting her, and every second brings Sloane closer to changing into the very fiend they want to kill.

Stake and Dust, Book I- These are stand alone stories.
A Lamia, a sea creature worthy of John Keats' prose, teams up with a vampire with serial tendencies. When young promising artists are found dead, the Preternatural Bureau sends Cassandra Hayes to the Hamptons to help a fellow hunter track down this lethal duo. She's only spoken to Mr. Green once on the phone and when she meets him in person, he is not what she expects. His hunting skills are spot on, but there is something the man is hiding, and she's determined to find out what it is despite the attraction developing between them.
Tremayne Graystone, a vampire from one of the oldest septs, is not pleased when he finds a dead hunter left on the doorstep of his pub. He should have never answered the hunter's phone, but someone is trying to frame him and he wants answers. Surely he can masquerade as Mr. Green, the hunter Cassandra is supposed to meet, before she figures out his true identity and stakes him. She's a Hayes, from a long line of vampire hunters, and fraternizing with the enemy is simply not done, but as they work together and follow the clues, the lines become blurred when he falls for the hunter's charms.
