Excerpt

Mattia Bianchi couldn’t believe a man he respected, regarded as a friend, was dead. He
adjusted the dark knit cap over his long dreadlocks and shifted to block a sudden gust of frigid
winter air. Beside him his partner and love, Nathalie Varner shivered and wept . He fussed with
her scarf, then her coat, lingering on the huge bulge of her belly. Movement skimmed his gloved
hand, and he stood in awe at the lives stirring inside her. Lives he would never see.
He looked over Nathalie’s head to an older man also in a long wool coat and fedora. “Maybe
take her to the car. The temp is dropping, and she’s been on her feet long enough,” Matt
suggested.
Nathalie grabbed his sleeve. “I’m not leaving until— Oh!” She gasped as she was lifted off her
feet and cradled in strong arms. She punched at his shoulder. “Put me down! He’s dead
because of me.”
Her sob shredded his heart. Matt adjusted his hold as she wiggled in his arms. “Be still or I’m
going to drop you,” he warned.

“You’re not even going to deny I’m the reason he’s dead.” She rested her wet face against his
jacket.
“Truck is warm and waiting,” velvet smoke stated as he passed.
Matt grunted acknowledgement. “You know as well as I do, the bank robbers are the ones
responsible for his death. Not you.” Snow crunched underfoot. “Besides, he thought you were
someone else. Not you.”
“Let me get the door,” Sterling offered. He had the door on the SUV open before Matt arrived.
“Thanks,” he muttered, sliding Nathalie onto the heated seat. He cupped her face, leaning his
forehead to hers. “Nobody blames you for what happened. We couldn’t have predicted they
were really after money and using the safety deposit boxes as cover.”
“That doesn’t make him any less dead,” she whimpered.

Have A Sweet Tooth? VIBE Book Series #MFRWhooks

Read The Story That Started It All!

Valentine’s is always a busy time of year for PB and J Bakery.

With love fueling the need for sweet confections, there’s always room for romance. Even the anonymous gifts left for Penelope, by a secret admirer, are a welcome distraction from the chaos of chocolate and spongecake.

Penelope Bishop has an idea who’s sending the gifts, or at least she hopes it’s her sexy mystery man who stole a kiss on New Year’s Eve. The trouble is, she’s never seen him. Her only clues are dancing skills, a great pair of lips, and a sensual voice that haunts her dreams and every waking fantasy. All that pales when her assistant, Avery, inspires those same lustful thoughts.

Avery has loved Penelope from afar, but with her recent breakup, he doubts she’ll view him beyond the current role he has in her life...seeing eye person. He has one chance to woo a woman who defines her world through touch, scent, sound, and taste--think outside the dating box. When an old flame comes courting and makes Penelope an offer she just may accept, Avery has one last opportunity to make her his Valentine...he’ll have to bare all.

Excerpt Chapter One

A small throng of people gathered in the wide tiled foyer. The distant chatter of conversation mingled with the soft music and the occasional burst of laughter.

Mr. VIP eyed the small group of people with some hostility. Look at them. So successful and happy at this New Year’s Eve gathering. How dare they be happy when I am struggling. He clenched his hands at the thought.

Didn’t they know his world was falling apart? Didn’t they know he was suffering? Or were they too wrapped up in their own relationships and businesses to notice he had withdrawn more than usual?

They were supposed to be his friends, his colleagues, his support system.

And not one of them noticed.

No. Not when he had stopped bringing his wife around. Nor when he no longer hosted any social gatherings at his home. They hadn’t even noticed he no longer discussed his business, his passion.

They hadn’t noticed anything.

Breathing deep, allowing the rising anger to swell and dissipate enough, he unclenched his hands and exhaled. Once more, he was the calm collected man they all knew him to be.

“Has the rest of our group arrived?” said Abigail Anderson. She held the handle of a large attentive but aging yellow, English Labrador retriever named Percy.

“I think we’re still waiting on Penelope.”

“Let me grab a quick picture before we move,” Geneva Martin said. She walked a few steps away, her heels clicking on the polished floor. “I can’t believe I’m getting a chance to be here,” Geneva gushed. “My mom always described the lobby as classy. You know, lots of marble and crystal chandeliers.” Her words were punctuated with a feminine voice as she rapidly instructed the person with the camera to tilt the cameral left, then right. Then the soft click of a shutter snapping followed, echoing off the high ceilings. “I can’t wait to post these on my website.”

VIP's Revenge (VIBE a Steamy Romance Book 6) by [Lynn Chantale]

Blind does not mean helpless.

Friends Penelope and Amelia have faced challenges their entire lives, but they didn't expect being hunted by a maniac hellbent on ridding the world of successful blind people to be one of them.

The way Mr. VIP sees it, he's waited long enough to seek revenge on those who have wronged him. After breaking out of jail, he hopes to join forces with other like-minded criminals to carry out his plan. But can there truly be honor among killers?

When both Penelope and Amelia's sighted husbands are kidnapped, the women know they are going to have to face off against Mr. VIP and his band of villains. But they refuse to be afraid. They are not easy targets and will not go down without a fight.

Excerpt

“I can see you are very busy.” Footsteps retreated on the tiled floor accompanied by the jangle of keys. “I wanted to warn you.”
Penelope had enough. She extended her cane and walked through the half door separating the case from the main floor, following the sounds of the man’s progress. “Allow me to escort you from the premises.”
The man gasped. “You’re blind? Oh, Christ on crutches. He married a blind woman.” He chuckled before it turned into a loud, boisterous laugh. “Too rich.”
Who is this fool? Penelope wondered. And how does he know Avery? 
“Penelope?” a younger male voice queried.
“Gage.” She tried not to let the relief in her voice show. “Could you escort this gentleman from the premises and make sure he doesn’t come back?”
“I wouldn’t do that if I were you,” the man cautioned.
“You heard the lady.” Gage had steel in his voice. “Please leave before we call the cops. They usually stop in about this time.”
“Very well,” the man said. “You’ve made your choice. Tell Avery I was here. When he comes back.” The chime on the door jingled. “If he comes back,” he said, as laughter mingled with the chimes.
Penelope stood stock-still. Was that the man’s way of telling me he knows what happened to Avery? She stepped forward. Gage caught her.
“Don’t go after him. It’s exactly what he wants.”
“But he may have information about Avery,” she protested. “Why would he say those things to me unless he knew what happened to Avery?”
Gage steered her down the hall. Tile turned to carpet and led her to a consult room.
“Listen to me. I was watching the man’s face. He wanted to goad you into a reaction.”
Penelope held out a hand, her fingers grazed the back of a chair. She sat. “He was with Joshua last night. Did Joshua make it home?”
“No.”
For some reason that gave her some comfort. “So, they could be together.”
“That’s the assumption we’re working with. You have cameras in the shop?”
“Of course.” After all the vandalism and destruction to the shop last year, Penelope thought it more than prudent to update their surveillance system. Where before the cameras only focused on the cash register, the shop now had cameras on every area of the shop.
“Good. I’d like to get a still of the man to Sergeant Falls.”
Penelope stood, stepped forward. The room spun, rushing up to greet her. With a gasp, she crumpled to the ground.
