Guest blog and Giveaway - Bite Me by Robyn Bachar



Character Interview: Bite Me’s Lizzy Addams

Lizzy: Oh, is it interview with the vampire time? Goody.

Me: Yes, it is. The nice people want to hear your story. Please.

Lizzy: “Nice” humans? That’s a contradiction in terms. All right, since you asked so politely. My name is Lizzy Addams, though my inner demon goes by Elizabeth. Mistress Elizabeth if you’ve been naughty…

Me: Keep it PG.

Lizzy: Whatever. Like I was going to link them to her smutty website. Anyway, yes, I am a vampire. But I’m not a “rawr, kill all the mortals” kind of vampire—those don’t last very long before someone goes Buffy on them. I believe in peaceful coexistence, which is why I decided to save people when the world ended.

Me: Well, technically the world didn’t “end”, it was overrun by zombies. The world is still there.

Lizzy: Details. Stop interrupting. Okay, so the zombie apocalypse happened. Shambling corpses all over the place, and that’s bad for vampire business. I can’t feed from zombies, and my personal blood bank was running dangerously low. I needed humans, and the humans needed shelter. You’d think this was obviously a win-win situation, but no. Apparently the world ending made the survivors cranky, and now I have to deal with unruly living tenants in addition to the zombie horde, cranky werewolf neighbors, and my evil vampire brother. It’s very stressful. I blame you.

Me: Yeah, well, torturing your characters is one of the perks of being an author. Anything else you’d like to say to the nice people?


Lizzy: Yes. It sucks to be a vampire at the end of the world. I hope you’re all entertained by my drama.

Book Description:

Consumed by the need to feed…

After an out-of-control spell triggers the zombie apocalypse, Lizzy Addams is left in the ruins of Chicago with only the slightly unhinged commentary—and endless erotic appetites—of her inner demon for company. Her blood supply dwindling, she is forced to find survivors to feed from, or die trying.

Officer Angela Kinney was on duty when hungry corpses overwhelmed the city. The survivors look to her for leadership, but nothing prepared her for a beautiful monster who offers safety in exchange for blood.

Sean MacMillan never expected to see Lizzy again after she rejected his attempts to lure her back to the vampire fold. But with his flock threatened by the horde and his murderous vampire brother, Lizzy is the only one he can trust to keep them safe.

The veil of secrecy shrouding the supernatural world torn apart, humanity’s only hope is to forge an alliance with vampires, werewolves, and things that go bump in the night. Though accepting their aid could be a devil’s bargain that puts humans at the bottom of the food chain.

Warning: Contains vampire orgies, angsty demon sex, a frisky lesbian werewolf, light kink, and enough sex toys to start a store.

Excerpt:

We emerged from the coffin to find a note taped to the inside of my closet door, with the instructions, “Sean, read this first.”

No good would come of that. Irritated, I handed him the note and opened the door. I emerged into an empty, silent bedroom. Blinking in confusion, I paused after a few steps. No flock, no werewolves and no one seated at my computer. The door was shut and locked, and my stomach dropped as I was blasted by an icy wave of fear.

“What’s wrong?” I asked, whirling on Sean.

He stood in the doorway to the closet, lean and so tall he nearly scraped the doorframe. Sean studied me silently, his face a placid mask, and then he slowly unbuttoned the jacket he’d just donned and set it aside.

“Sean…” My voice dropped in warning as he began unbuttoning his shirt. I growled for added effect, but he continued, stripping the shirt and then the undershirt beneath until he was bare-chested. He didn’t seem interested or aroused—Sean looked like a man being led to the gallows. I growled again, but instead of a threat it was a sound of interest voice by my stirring demon. She was captivated by the landscape of pale skin across his toned abs, wondering what his skin would feel like beneath our fingertips.

Lean and strong, like our Athena. Wouldn’t they make a striking pair in our bed?

“Elizabeth, come here,” Sean ordered.

I was halfway to him before I realized what had happened—anger at falling so easily into the reflex warred with my demon’s desire to obey. With a snarl I froze, planting my feet in a fighting stance just out of arm’s reach.


“What the fuck is going on?” I snapped.
