Vampire mafioso Nino's addictive arrangement with human Ben is upended when Nino's sister drops her young daughter into their care, forcing them to masquerade as a happy family - or risk the child becoming a pawn in a high-stakes vampire divorce. Standalone in the Picky Eater series *** Everything between vampire mafioso, Nino, and a human with high-quality blood, Ben, has been about feeding, sex, and a place for Nino to stay in the city. The deal is simple - In exchange for paying Ben's living expenses, Nino can drink Ben's blood whenever he wants. Their routine is comfortable, and slightly too addictive, until Nino's sister, Bianca, crashes into their lives on the run from her ex-husband...who also happens to be a powerful vampire mobster. When Bianca offers Ben a better deal he can't refuse and drops Nino's niece into their laps, Ben and Nino must pretend to be a happy family before she's used as collateral for the century's most dramatic vampire divorce. Season 1 of Picky Eater WARNING: This story contains mature content that may not be suitable for some readers.

BOOK TWO of 'My Mate, His Mate, and Me'. Raphael and Julian agree to fake a romantic relationship so Raphael can avoid a political marriage and Julian can simply be left alone, but when Raphael desires something more real and Julian can taste a normal life, he must learn to control his powers or he'll end up breaking the promise Raphael made to his first mate and he'll never be able to mate again. # UPDATING ON PATREON (when completed, I will be updating here) Without a mate, as an Alpha, Raphael is the most eligible bachelor around, but he doesn't want outside influences deciding what he should do with his life. He'd rather be single. Julian just wants to be left alone. Julian still can't control his powers and now that the world knows he exists, this Oracle is desired for all the wrong reasons. The obvious solution (to Raphael) is to fake date. He'll keep dangerous wolves away from Julian and if Raphael's not single, he can't be forced into a political marriage. But fake dating is harder than it seems, especially when the feelings are getting more and more real. Even if they were to try-really try-Julian couldn't. He can't even touch Raphael. Let alone kiss him or hold his hand or... do much more. Not that Julian wants to anyways. Right? Fake and real blur as the boys spend more and more time together. Julian had never met anyone not trying to use his weakness against him and gets too comfortable. So comfortable, he forgets himself and accidently sees a vision of Raphael's past. The promise Raphael made to his first mate, Carrie. A promise Julian is forcing Raphael to break. Julian was so obsessed with making himself better, he never thought he might be bad for Raphael. # Julian's Story from "My Mate, His Mate, and Me". For more context, please read "My Mate, His Mate, and Me"!
