Book Summary
Murder.
Sex.
Horny werewolves.
Lil Marchette, owner of Manhattan’s premier matchmaking service, has seen it all. She’s faced down a vengeful vampire hellbent on framing her for murder. She’s had hot, incredible sex with hunky bounty hunter/made vampire Ty Bonner. And she successfully matched up the single members of the Connecticut chapter of the Naked and Unashamed Nudist Sisterhood (aka the horny werewolves) before the full moon.
Whew . . . This incredibly well-dressed vamp needs a little down time, or at least a major shopping spree.
Yeah, right.
Being wanted for murder can impact a girl’s livelihood. Despite the nice chunk of cash from the N.U.N.S., Lil is barely making ends meet. It seems that while she was busy proving her innocence and matching up werewolves, the rest of her client list dwindled. On top of that, Dead End
Dating is under the microscope of local officials, particularly a city councilwoman (human, of course) who is convinced that DED isn’t what it appears to be. Which means Lil needs human clients. Lots of human clients. And fast.
No problemo. She has the brains to go with her ultrafab wardrobe, and so she recognizes opportunity when she sees it. Namely Manhattan’s Most Wanted. Fashioned after The Batchelor, Manhattan’s Most Wanted is a local reality show that follows fifty women as they via for an all expense paid date with one of the city’s most eligible bachelors. Fifty single women.
Hmmm . . .
While Lil has no desire to win The Date (human male+ultra hot born female vamp=getting ass kicked by meddling born vamp mother), she sees the show as a prime opportunity to beef up her human client list. And so she signs herself up.
In the meantime, she vows not to think about Ty Bonner. Or the fact that he left after their one wild night together and hasn‘t been heard from since.
Okay, so Lil hears him. They are kinda, sorta mentally linked since a little blood-sharing episode in book one, and so she can hear him calling for help.
Uh, oh.
Lil launches a full-blown search for Ty who’s been abducted by a vengeful killer. At the same time, she does her best NOT to win herself a date with Manhattan’s Most Wanted.
Unfortunately, her V magnetism is hard at work. Despite her best efforts, she finds herself headed for the grand finale and an appearance on the Today show.
Major uh, oh .
