On her way to her family\u2019s home, Carol Prescott\u2019s car slides into a ditch in a deserted area with no cell phone signal. The only available shelter is already occupied\u2026by a vampire. To Michael Carpenter, Carol is the bait of a trap.<\/p>\n<p>In an effort to hold onto his soul, Michael has resisted the urge to drink human blood for almost a century. Now he hovers between human and vampire. If he doesn\u2019t drink from a human before the night ends, he\u2019ll die. He\u2019s desperately thirsty, but Michael has seen the soulless monsters vampires are and he prefers death. Carol is pure temptation to him, the Christmas present from hell\u2026or is it from heaven?<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m thrilled to say that it\u2019s now available in most e-formats.\u00a0 Better yet, it\u2019s only 99 cents on Amazon and Barnes and Noble and free on Smashwords.<\/p>\n<p>Links:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B006G36AXG\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon <\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B006G36AXG\" target=\"_blank\">Kindle<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/books\/1107813932?ean=2940013549968\" target=\"_blank\">Nook<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/109662\" target=\"_blank\">Smashwords<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kmccullough.com\/Christmas_Moon.php\">Read an excerpt here<\/a><\/p>\n<p>My Christmas present to you!\u00a0 But hurry, it\u2019s only free for a limited time.
