What’s a woman to do when she’s crazy about a gorgeous hunk and he barely talks to her? Make him jealous, of course. When Twyla discovers Nikos is taking the same plane to New York City, she figures it’s nothing more than a coincidence. She couldn’t be more wrong. Not only is he planning on being her bodyguard while she visits her cousin but he doesn’t plan on letting another man get close to her, either. Twyla’s an artistic, intelligent woman, which explains how she discovers the man of her dream is a vampire…and she doesn’t care.
Being crazy about Nikos isn’t easy. The man’s calm, reserved, big, dominant and a good man to have your back in a fight. And that’s exactly what Twyla needs when they discover a plot to drive vampires into a feeding frenzy when the ball drops in Times Square on New Year’s Eve. Together with their friends, Nikos and Twyla must stop a maniac and save thousands of humans and vampires from the deadly plans of a madman.
The Bite of Silence is the newest release in Mary Hughes’ ongoing A Biting Love series and it’s just as fast-moving and fun as the others. Written in first person, it starts off with Twyla almost getting introduced to the mile-high club. Despite its short length, the story’s packed with great characters, unusual situations and a quick moving plot and funny dialogue.
At the beginning, it doesn’t look like Nikos will ever loosen up and take control, but when he does—watch out. The man’s all about taking charge and when it happens in the bedroom; both Twyla and Nikos nearly go up in flames. These two have little in common; Twyla is modern, determined, spunky and independent, whereas Nikos is ancient, used to always being in control and more than a little dominant. It’s a miracle these two get together, but Ms. Hughes does it with flair, blistering sexual attraction and genuine caring. The premise surrounding the near disaster in Times Square was intriguing, and it was nice seeing the brief return of Nixie and Julian, even if only by phone. I look forward to the next book in the series—Biting Me Softly.
