Plaidypus - A Magical Romantic Comedy (with a body count), #19

After a close encounter of the hotspot kind, Nadine's paws are full figuring out how to feed her thirsty vampire of a brother, trying to convince the CDC she actually can be a shapeshifter infected with the lycanthropy virus, and dodging the pack of crazy women out for her blood-or her brother's body. She's not sure if they want her or her brother, but she doesn't want to find out. Nadine knows one thing for certain: her backwater town is too small for everybody coming to pay her family of two a visit.
Maybe she doesn't have a male platypus's venomous spurs, but she's ready to put up a fight to protect her brother, and not even the sexy plaid-clad stranger strutting his stuff is going to lure her away from home. Assuming she'll be given a choice in the matter is only the first of her mistakes. Warning: this novel contains the mythical plaidypus and other deadly puns, romance, bodies, a minimum of two Canadians, and a mandatory magical adventure to Australia. Proceed with caution. Plaidypus can be read as a standalone.
