Crimson Tree Publishing is proud to present Burning Nights, the fifth book in The Ancient Fire Series by Julie Wetzel.
After a wedding filled with werewolves, fay, and vampires, Vicky is looking forward to a nice, quiet honeymoon away from the chaos of Darien’s daily life. But nothing is ever simple with an Ancient Vampire around.
When the Vampire Council of Hawaii finds out Darien and his new bride are coming, they are determined to see that Darien is honored properly. But vampire etiquette isn’t for the faint of heart.
The nights could burn when lines are drawn… and Darien finds himself in a turf war he never intended to start.
Excerpt:
The curtain opened,
letting in the cacophony from the other room. “Are you guys done in
here?” Josh asked as he let the heavy curtain fall back into place,
muffling the sound. “Because, we’re ready for you out there.”
He paused and looked over the touching scene. His eyes ran over the
groomsmen standing uncomfortably to one side, to Zak squat on the
floor eating the mangled roses, and stopped on Vicky and Darien
wrapped together. “I guess not.” Moving past the men, he came
over and stopped in front of Zak. “You may want to get a move on
it. We’ve already switched the room over, but we’ve got a couple
of wolves arguing over seating, of all things.” Bending over, Josh
grabbed Zak’s elbow and made him stand up as he spoke. “Jakob is
between them right now, but you might want to finish up here and get
out there before they start eating each other.”
Rupert shot Phalen a
concerned look, and the lesser wolf turned to see to the developing
situation.
Grabbing the flowers from
Zak, Josh tried to take them away from the hellhound. “Don’t eat
those. They’ll make you sick.”
Zak growled and bopped him
with the mangled roses.
Josh wrestled them away
from the fay. “I’ll get you some real food,” he promised as he
dropped the crushed flowers back to the floor. “And you will use a
fork,” he informed the hellhound, “at least while you’re in my
tux. “
Zak gurgled at him but
fell in behind the vampire.
“As for the rest of
you.” Josh looked around. “I suggest you get your backsides in
gear before you have a riot on your hands. The fay are ready to
party.” With that, Josh took Zak by the hand and led him from the
staging area.
“Well,” Rupert said as
he looked around the room, “it looks like we should get back out
there.”
Darien laughed and sat up
from where he was leaning on Vicky. “I guess you’re right. So
where’s this paperwork?” He looked around for the marriage
license. As a vampire, he had wanted to skip the rigmarole of faking
the blood test and filing paperwork, but Vanessa had insisted, and as
a businessman, he understood the need for properly managed contracts.
The sooner they got the legal side of the marriage taken care of, the
sooner they could get out there and keep their party guests from
running amok. With the fay in attendance, he had a sneaking suspicion
that the rest of the night was going to be insane.
