(The eighth book in the After Dark series)
A Novella by

Caspian
A letter from my grandfather has me going back home. It comes at the perfect time really since I need to get out of town before what has happened to my teammates happens to me. I am in no place to fall in love or even think about it. Until I walk into Gramps’ dining room and lay eyes on his new companion. I was expecting someone closer to my grandfather’s age, not this sweet-faced, innocent looking…girl. Now, I’m thinking about wedding rings and babies and how to get closer to her. But is she here because she’s really as sweet as she seems…or is she only after my grandfather’s money?

Maple
Self-centered, egotistical rich kid. It’s the first impression I get of Caspian, but what am I going to do? I’ve fallen in love with his Gramps. Just not in the way Caspian is thinking. His grandfather is the first person to really care about me in…maybe ever. The thing that is most infuriating about Caspian is the fact that I can’t figure him out. First, he thinks I’m all about the money, then he’s telling me I’m too sweet for something like that. It’s like the guy can’t make up his mind. And how does he seem to know exactly where I��m at all the time? Either way, he’s got me on his radar, and for once in my life…I don’t think I can keep my heart safe. Not from this man who wraps me up in mystery and takes over my thoughts so easily. Could Caspian be the person to teach me a family doesn’t always mean you are related, sometimes love is Thicker Than Blood?

Hot outside? No new true crime shows on? Waiting in line to pick your kids up from something (school, soccer, football, dances)? Let all that go for a while and grab Thicker Than Blood. The Eighth book in the After Dark series giving Caspian his Happy Ever After. It’s got all the tropes and themes that will leave you in a puddle of goo like so much melted ice cream, enemies to lovers, alpha billionaire, instalove, and over-the-top romance Jisa-style. So come spend the night with me…or the day…or that break you have when you lock yourself in the bathroom to escape it all. I got you, girl!
