Description
Top matchmaker and owner of Manhattan’s primo hook-up service, Dead End Dating—and one scorching hot vampire herself—Lil Marchette knows a little something about happily ever afterlife. But the bat hits the fan when she wakes up in the Las Vegas Mayan Resort and Casino hung-over and hitched to an old friend (and fellow night-lifer) who is NOT her bounty-hunting steady Ty Bonner.
Lil swipes some of the casino’s security tapes to shed light on the evening’s hazy events, but what she finds can make a vamp’s blood run even colder. Instead of her trip to the altar, the tapes reveal explosive footage of a poker game gone horribly wrong—a game which could launch an all-out war between the bloodsuckers and their werewolf brethren. Suddenly Lil finds herself catapulted into the middle of a hit man’s twisted scheme. But can this diva of the undead avert an epic battle, outrun a killer, and undo her “I do” before all hell breaks loose?

From the author:
"Hi everyone,
I am so sorry the release dates on this book keep getting moved. It has been a battle to get to the point where we can do this ourselves. I was hoping that another publisher would pick up the book, and there has been a chance of that, but I know fans are tired of waiting and shopping it around involves a lot more time. I've decided that I am going to do it myself because I know everyone is tired of waiting. I am tired of waiting to. Talked with my agent and we are going to release the book in November, 2013. A new cover should be up soon and the book will be available for pre-order. I will let everyone know when the new cover is up. Again, I thank you all so much for your patience and understanding. This sort of situation is very sticky because I didn't actually own rights to that last book and so I've had to sit on it. And sit on it. And sit on it. I know that's hard to understand, but it's the reality. My hands were tied. I hope you can understand and find it in your hearts to give Lil a chance in November. If the book does well, we are going to continue the series and just self pub it ourselves."
