Proudly Supporting: Team Vampire Lumberjack

in Contests, Vampire, Werewolf

I’m on Team Vampire. Find out more.

Moira Rogers is hosting a superb contest to promote their two newest releases, Sanctuary Unbound and A Safe Harbor. They're asking readers and bloggers to pick sides and I think you can tell which side I chose. No contest who won my heart and in an effort to persuade you over to the dark side I've come up with:

Ten Reasons to be Team Vampire Lumberjack:

  1. Paul Bunyan – Our vampire is in flannel, snug jeans, wielding a giant axe… what’s not to love?
  2. Not Afraid of Stakes – If he’s logging he can’t be too worried about stakes through the heart. Brave vampire!
  3. No Extra Cleaning – You will never have to vacuum the carpet or lint roll your couch to get rid of shaggy dog hair with a vampire, unlike a werewolf. They’re slobs!
  4. No More Early Mornings – Vampires are creatures of the night and as a fellow night owl this is great for me. Early mornings? Who needs them? Lazy afternoons are what it’s all about.
  5. Cold Side of the Bed – When you wake up in the middle of the night feeling way too warm, just switch sides on the bed with your vampire and find instant relief.
  6. All the In-Laws are Dead and Gone – Hurrah! You won’t ever have to face what Jennifer Lopez did in Monster-in-Law. You won’t need to impress all his friends either, like you would with a werewolf’s pack.
  7. Love is Forever – It’s not just until death do you part. His love will last for more than a lifetime.
  8. Alpha Male – He’s strong, possessive, protective, and growly. Sexy? Oh yes!
  9. Centuries to Build Wealth – With your vampire lover supporting you in luxury you can do what you love, not just a job to pay the bills.
  10. You Don’t Have to Cook – You will never have to slave over the stove, clean up all the pots and pans, or restack the dishes back where they go with a vampire.

Sanctuary Unbound Blub:


New England is ideal for vampire Adam Dubois. His cozy home in the Great North Woods reminds him of a happier time when werewolves and witches were stuff of legends, and he was a simple lumberjack.

Hiding from past failures has worked for over eighty years, but a life debt owed to the Red Rock alpha has forced him to leave his retreat--and come face to face with a woman who challenges and tempts him on every level.

Hiding secrets is a lonely business, and Cindy Shepherd is lonely with a capital L. Red Rock isn't exactly crawling with available men, but her interest in the mystery-shrouded new vampire in town seems mutual. After all, it's only sex--there's no danger he'll dig deep enough to unleash the demons of her past.

Casual flirtation turns deadly serious when Adam discovers that the vampire plaguing Red Rock is using his mistakes as a road map. When it comes to his life, he knows Cindy has his back. But in order to secure the future, they both must trust each other with more--even if it means sacrificing themselves to save everything they hold dear.

Keira's favorite type of heroes are blind, scarred, and tortured... yes, she understands those should be separate, but all 3 at once is also nice! She enjoys historical romances best and adores audio books because great narrators turn books into auditory/mental movies (and she loves her romantic dramas like Pride and Prejudice/North and South!)

I can see you’re a gal who sees the glass half full. :) But why settle for half full? With a bootlegger, your cup will runneth OVER! Go Team Werewolf Bootlegger!

While all of these things may be true, how can you resist the suit? And werewolves will play with your puppies instead of having them for dinner.

Go Team Werewolf Bootlegger!

Meh…I say: TEAM WEREWOLF BOOTLEGGER! Sorry to all the vamp lovers, but I love a nice warm (alive) man to cuddle up to in bed at night…ya, sleeping at night!…what a concept! HAHA!

@Reena – Half full? If it’s half full it’s because I drank part of it to replenish my fluids after my vamp and I had a little sexy encounter.

@Cade – I must admit the suit was hot. And since I don’t want puppies I’m okay with my vampire snacking on them… lol :D

@Amy S – Plenty of people stay up all night and work night shifts

Yeah a sexy encounter where he sucks your blood. EWWW! Come on it would really suck to cut your tongue everytime you kissed him.

But his bite is orgasmic! ;) A werewolf can’t guarantee an orgasm with his love bites, now can he?

7 Reena Jacobs May 31, 2010 at 8:32 PM

I say resist, vampire lovers! A werewolf will guarantee you an orgasm with his warm parts. Go Team Werewolf Bootlegger!

Gotta say I’m team werewolf :)

I totally want a HUGE family with a guy who was actually alive and warm. I have this tendency to freeze during the winter (bad circulation, ugh) and a werewolf would be the perfect remedy. Not to mention if he’s an alpha, I’m going to totally enjoy provoking him every chance I get. Muwahaha

Go Vampire Lumberjack! What can I say…broody, sexy, brawny, plaid wearing, axe wielding hunks of gorgeousness. Nothing left to say.

10 Jason May 31, 2010 at 9:59 PM

Although a man who knows how to suck comes in handy, I think I will go for the man who likes it doggy style. :) Team werewolf!

@Reena – Where’s the documented proof? lol ;)

@Tori – No way! I wouldn’t want a HUGE family and I certainly wouldn’t want to mate with a man from a multiparous background. Twins are bad enough, but a litter? Women beware — say no to being Octomom 2!

@Anna – Brawny hunks of gorgeousness is dead right! Pun intended. ;)

@Jason – lol Luckily doggy style isn’t limited to werewolves.

Okay, so no in-laws is almost enough to get me over to the lumber jack… But I’m afraid I’m still in love with my Werewolf Bootlegger.

And besides, where you see bravery I see stupidity. Hello, next to the sun most vamps meet their maker via wooden stake. One well placed splinter, and that guy is toast.

Werewolf Bootlegger!

Oh yes, I’m on Team Lumberjack Vampire. He’s a dirty talker, that gets me every time! Never mind that his chosen profession is hazardous to his health…you know wood shards in the heart and all? I guess that just makes him all the more bad ass right? :)

3 and 10 make a lot of sense but with a werewolf you’d never miss a trip to the beach or have to avoid garlic bread.

Nope can’t do it. i like the sun and cooking. Wouldn’t be the same without someone to share the sun and eat my cooking so Team Werewolf for me.

For the sake of sides, I have to go Team Vampire Lumberjack. Nothing says sexy like a man jacking some lumber. (Ohhh the images.)
I can’t wait to add both to my collection!

It’s so hard to choose between two totally sexy heroes, but I am voting for Team Werewolf.

I come from a long line of lumberjacks. I’ll take the family biz and some pesky soul issues over the uncontrolled furry and controlled substances.
Go Team Vampire Lumberjack!

A new team, a civil war, a revolution!!!
Team Werevamp Wolfjack
YES!!! I agree I want both too, yeah, the start of a new revolution, I’d love to be in the middle between these two sexy men, a new team. I’m with you, team Werevamp wolfjack, how does that sound?
I had just started to post the following on some of the blogs starting with Blackravens.
I can be a trouble maker, I want both, shame on me huh,blame it on some really good posts numbering the wolf advantage of being able to be out at all times of the day and the fact that he’s warm and really alive and can share a real meal of food. Although the wolfie can take care of me 24/7 and the vamp can only manage about half, maybe they won’t mind sharing, I wouldn’t mind it. After all why can’t I have my cake and eat it too.
Hope everyone doesn’t want to stake me out but I really want both.
Zina
Viva le revolution, come join us

45 Ellaanabeth June 11, 2010 at 7:55 PM

I’m all for the werewolf bootleggers. Vamps working exclusively with wood in explosive situations seems like a bit of a death wish, whereas smuggling in moonshine is totally just an adreneline rush and a good time. ^_^

You make some good points (especially the no in-laws!) but I’m still Team werewolf bootlegger. I just can’t get over the fact vampires are dead, and a cold, dead vampire just can’t match a warm-blooded werewolf.

I’m all for Team Werewolf Bootlegger! While not having to worry about cleaning dishes would be a plus, I just find the idea of my honey drinking blood to be gross!
