Book 2 in the Vampire Sentinel series.
Nicole Martin's new home—an adorable bungalow nestled on a vast estate—provides the serenity she needs as an erotic romance author. Estate owner Zane Patrick is a gorgeous bonus, serving as sizzling inspiration for her novels. But when two shady agents imply he might be something other than human, Nicky's overactive imagination kicks in. Perhaps it's time to get to know the neighbor…
When Zane sold the house to Nicky, he created his own personal hell—every time she writes a sex scene, he witnesses every intimate detail in his mind. He shouldn't get involved with his luscious neighbor, but cold showers can do only so much. When he learns of the agents' accusations, he and Nicky explore their motives…and their lust for each other.
Add in an ancient, mystifying ruby once owned by Catherine the Great, and Zane and Nicky come together in ways neither could have imagined—which might come in handy if the agents manage to carry out their evil scheme.
