I am so excited, I have been waiting for this book for a year now! Heck, it's been more than a year since the first book, "Senior Year Bites", came out. BoUnCe bOuNcE BoUnCe. SBB came out on Tuesday and I am being a responsible adult and finishing other commitments (read review book, finish line edits, etc.) before I start this one. *cries*
But now, you don't have to wait. Julie has shared an excerpt and is giving away a copy. Yes, your very own copy. So, read on and enjoy! Giveaway details are at the end of the post.
*******************************************************************************
I ran, almost flew over the sand.
Alexander’s sheer panic drove me to move faster than I ever had before. I
didn’t have much time to take in the scene, but he struggled with someone. Not
having a better idea, or time to plan, I tackled them. We all tumbled to the
ground, and I managed to keep hold of his attacker long enough to get him away
from Alexander. We rolled, and I tried to come up on top, but the stranger was
strong and pinned me before we even stopped moving.
“Aww, and here I’d thought you brought
me dinner.” I had a brief impression of black eyes and gleaming fangs before he
grabbed my shoulders and lifted me up, then slammed me back into the sand.
Pain lanced through my head. I groaned
and tried to fight back, but before I’d even formulated a plan, the assailant’s
weight was gone. Alexander cried out again.
“Damn it, why do I have to keep saving
you!” I jumped up and plowed into them again. This time I dug claws into his
ribcage and jerked him away. I thought I had a good grip, but he twisted free.
The smell of blood was overpowering. Some of it was Alexander’s, but much of it
was my opponent’s. He backed up, still smiling at me. He didn’t look at all
concerned I’d just buried claws into his ribcage. He wasn’t much taller than
me, and his dark hair and almond eyes made me think he was Asian. But the fangs
he bared were all Vampire.
Terror lanced through me, making me
weak. I wanted to run. The fear I’d felt when I’d faced the Unseelie last
winter was nothing compared to my fear now. Vampires were real monsters, and I
was certain I was about to die.
“Well, you do have a little bite to
you.” His smile wasn’t friendly. He
wasn’t much bigger than me, but he was a lot faster, and I lost sight of him
until he stood right in front of me.
“But you’re young. And dumb. I told you
to be more careful.”
I tried to block his next move, but he
caught my arm and twisted me around, trapping me against his chest. I felt
strangely exposed and panic turned my limbs,
and my brain, to jelly. I
shrieked and tried to pull away.
The Vampire laughed.
“Meg!”
“Run! Get out of here!” I thought that’s
what I said, but in my panicked state I could have been shouting the periodic
table. I kicked backward, and my heel connected with the Vampire’s shin. His
grip never loosened.
Duck!
I wasn’t sure if I actually heard the
words or not, but they punched through my panicked fog, and I did the best I
could. The Vampire still had hold of me so I twisted my face against his
blood-covered chest.
Light flared and the Vampire screamed. I pulled away from him, small
pinpricks of heat searing along my shoulder and back. He was still yelling as I
ran away from him.
