Cheesy temptation
I took my car in for an oil change today, and I was told it would take a couple of hours. I decided to wander down to the nearest grocery store to pick up a book to read as I ate lunch at the nearest fast food joint. It being a grocery store, the selection wasn't exactly stunning, but I just couldn't resist the book titled How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire. Particularly when the back had such a marvelously cheesy intro:
Roman Draganesti is charming, handsome, rich... he's also a vampire. But this vampire just lost one of his fangs sinking his teeth into something he shouldn't have. Now he has one night to find a dentist before his natural healing abilities close the wound, leaving him a lop-sided eater for all eternity.
Things aren't going well for Shanna Whelan, either. After witnessing a gruesome murder, she's next on the mob's hit list. And her career as a dentist appears to be on a downward spiral because she's afraid of blood. When Roman rescues her from an assassination attempt, she wonders if she's found the one man who can keep her alive. Though the attraction between them is immediate and hot, can Shanna conquer her fear of blood to fix Roman's fang? And if she does, what will prevent Roman from using his fangs on her....?
I've read enough of the book to know that Roman makes Angel look like a cheery, light-hearted scamp. But I suspect I'll finish it anyhow, because once I start in on a trashy romance, I just have to read through to the anything-but-bitter end [wink].
