Velma has spent her entire life being overlooked. So she became someone else. With a new name and a carefully constructed identity, she steps into the office of Odette Lovell, the most influential tech CEO of her generation. Taking a position as Odette's secretary, Velma plans to get close, learn her secrets, and steal her plans. She tells herself it'll be easy. She tells herself that stealing Odette's plans is a price she'll have to pay to become the successful woman she always knew she could be. But Odette begins to see her. Not as a secretary. But as a woman worth wanting. And suddenly, the life Velma created for herself becomes the one thing she can't bear to lose.

Vampire mafioso Nino's addictive arrangement with human Ben is upended when Nino's sister drops her young daughter into their care, forcing them to masquerade as a happy family - or risk the child becoming a pawn in a high-stakes vampire divorce. Standalone in the Picky Eater series *** Everything between vampire mafioso, Nino, and a human with high-quality blood, Ben, has been about feeding, sex, and a place for Nino to stay in the city. The deal is simple - In exchange for paying Ben's living expenses, Nino can drink Ben's blood whenever he wants. Their routine is comfortable, and slightly too addictive, until Nino's sister, Bianca, crashes into their lives on the run from her ex-husband...who also happens to be a powerful vampire mobster. When Bianca offers Ben a better deal he can't refuse and drops Nino's niece into their laps, Ben and Nino must pretend to be a happy family before she's used as collateral for the century's most dramatic vampire divorce.
