Part of Love at Stake, book 6
First published 2009
Jack knows how to throw a bachelor party. The illegitimate son of Casanova serves Blissky instead of beer to his vampire guests, but the night still features plenty of revelry. When the party spirals beyond control, police arrive to investigate the disturbance. Officer Lara Boucher expects to find typical party chaos. Instead, she meets Jack and finds herself captivated by his charm, even as her instincts tell her something unusual is happening. Jack struggles to explain the scene without revealing his supernatural nature, especially when Lara's beauty leaves him tongue tied. Lara suspects Jack is concealing more than party violations. Her suspicions deepen when she connects him to the recent vanishing of young women throughout the city. As she digs deeper into Jack's background, she uncovers truths about his vampiric identity that challenge everything she believes. Jack must decide whether to trust Lara with his secrets, while she faces a choice between her career ambitions and her growing feelings for this mysterious modern Casanova.
