A Valentine in July

J.T.Schultz
Paranormal romance
Available from The Wild Rose Press
March 2007

Tia O’Shea is a private investigator who just witnessed the murder of a young woman on the beach. As she flees she runs, literally, into the man of her dreams. She has been having very sexually explicit dreams of this very man for over three months. Val DeMarcus knows that he has just found the woman of his dreams but she is running for her life from a murderer. Can Val save her and keep her? And will she stay when she learns that he is a vampire, after all she is a slayer?

This story is not your usual Vampire verse slayer until they fall in love story. In this story Val and Tia met in their dreams and fell in love before they ever met in person or knew who or what the other person was. This made for an interesting twist as you knew they were meant to be together but also that they had some major issues to resolve for that to happen! I liked Tia’s kick-butt, smart-aleck attitude, and her ability to cut through all the garbage right to the truth. Val is one sexy, sensual man, and not the usual loner, dark, troubled vampire found in so many of the books of this genre. His family is around (parents and a brother), he surfs at the beach, and he lives a pretty fulfilling life. Are you looking for a quick, charming vampire romance? Then read A Valentine in July!
