Bio:
DW Adler ("Call me Don") was
born and raised in beautiful Nova Scotia, Canada. After receiving a degree in
psychology and an almost-minor in Irish Studies, he learned how to fix computers.
He now sweats profusely in Florida where he does IT support for a living when
he's not writing.
Don counts such authors as Anne Rice,
JRR Tolkien, and Edgar Allan Poe, as well as a love for Irish/Celtic myth and
folklore as his influences. He loves to read sci-fi, fantasy, post-apocalyptic,
and anything having to do with vampires.
Other than sipping tea and writing, Don
dabbles in computer animation and graphic design, is a doting father to his
little girl, and a loving husband. He is constantly plotting how to get back
home to Nova Scotia and flees there whenever the sight of snow becomes a
necessity.
No, he will not fix your computer.

Excerpt:
Brijit reached up and put her hand behind Kelly’s head, intertwining her
fingers with curly locks of dark red hair. “You feel it too, don’t you?”
Kelly’s breathing quickened and her cheeks burned red as Brijit’s touch
made her body tense with conflicting emotions. Her eyes closed halfway and the
fear started to morph into something resembling ecstasy. “Uh huh,” she
murmured. “What have you been doing to me all evening? I can’t think straight
when you look at me.”
Brijit stroked Kelly’s hair, pulled her hand away and pushed her fingers
back through the strands, starting at her temples and ending at the back of her
head. Her fingertips pressed into Kelly’s scalp with the slightest of pressure,
which excited the nerves in her skin. “I’m not doing anything. I don’t do
vampire mind tricks. I feel this connection with you…it’s rare that it’s this
strong. There haven’t been many over the centuries that make me feel like
this.”
Kelly looked into the green eyes and felt the fear and terror turn to
waves of want and lust. She brought her hands to Brijit’s face, feeling the
soft yet strong skin so very cold beneath her fingertips. Brijit smiled and
leaned in slowly. Her lips found Kelly’s. Slowly, she brushed by them.
Kelly felt her breathing quicken as the vampire teased her, their mouths
hovering near each other. Finally she moved in closer, craving the touch of
Brijit’s lips. She pressed into them gently and felt their softness meet her
own in a kiss that was gentle yet tentative at the same time…
