Happy release day to Dream Lover: Paranormal Tales of Erotic Romance, edited by Kristina Wright!
My story in this anthology is titled “Vanilla,” and I noticed it had a mention in one of the Amazon.com reviews: “After finishing the book, I think my favorite is “Vanilla.” –L.M. Tanaka
Here’s a small excerpt of my story:
Devlin had flour on the tip of his nose.
Louisa stopped in the communal kitchen’s doorway and watched him absently brush his nose with one floured knuckle. He’d spilt flour on the counter, and was scraping it into a paper towel. Flour puffed into the air like tiny coded smoke signals, and settled on his black t-shirt, just over his stomach.
She recognized eggs and butter, but not the long, thin black item–seemingly organic–that he’d placed next to one of his mixing bowls. His supplies were arrayed on the island counter in the center of the research facility’s kitchen.
“What’s up?” Devlin asked, intent on what he was doing, but apparently recognizing her without looking up, almost as if he was a telepath, like her.
