But is he interested in her, her family's money, or her blood?She might actually enjoy summer camp, if she can stop finding dead bodies and if people stop trying to kill her.~ ~ ~ ~"And I saw you snitching that last slice of coconut cream pie mom made. You should be ashamed of yourself for not sharing with your beloved twin brother," Mitch said, his lips twitched with laughter.She grinned as he walked toward her. He was so busy teasing her he didn't notice the slowly rotating ceiling fan. For all his teasing, she should let him walk into the fan, but his head would break her ceiling fan."Mitch," she said, pointing up at the fan in warning.He ignored her, chattering on about how much she was eating during puberty. He was almost there. "Mitch!" She waved her hand to stop him, waiting for the inevitable ker-chunk."Aargh!" He bellowed and his eyes bugged out. Ducking at the last minute, he neatly avoided the thin wooden blade of the fan. Looking up, he glared at the fan.Katie's laughter filled the room. Talk about priceless. Though, she was glad his cement-hard head hadn't broken her ceiling fan."Very funny, Katie. Ha. Ha," he grumbled, turning his good-humored glare on her; his lips twitched, trying not to laugh with her."I tried to stop you.""Just wait until you start your growth spurt. Next week you'll be whining and complaining that nothing fits anymore.""I think it might be sooner than next week. I'd guess a couple of days max." Her clothes were loose, but they irritated her skin. Every time she moved, she felt the brush of her shorts and soft cotton halter-top slide against her sensitive skin. Her skin had started tingling yesterday afternoon. She sighed in resignation, being tender was normal a few days before she started the final growth spurt. "Honestly," Katie said. "I can't wait. I'm so sick of wearing boys slim cut jeans. To think, I'll actually have..." "La! La! La! La!" He loudly bellowed with a sick look on his face and fingers stuck in his ears."I was just going to say hips," she said, planting her hands on her hips. She grinned at his pained expression. He gave a long-suffering sigh and removed his fingers. She couldn't resist the urge to tease him. "Oh, and I'll finally have boobs." Her giggles turned to laughter as his mortified expression turned beet red. He tried to say something, but only a gurgle came out, while the tips of his pointed ears turned rosy red.Thank you for considering Forbidden Temptation! :-)

Book Description
Of all the plants men have ever grown, none has been praised and denounced as often as marihuana (Cannabis sativa). Throughout the ages, marihuana has been extolled as one of man's greatest benefactors and cursed as one of his greatest scourges. Marihuana is undoubtedly a herb that has been many things to many people. Armies and navies have used it to make war, men and women to make love. Hunters and fishermen have snared the most ferocious creatures, from the tiger to the shark, in its herculean weave. Fashion designers have dressed the most elegant women in its supple knit. Hangmen have snapped the necks of thieves and murderers with its fiber. Obstetricians have eased the pain of childbirth with its leaves. Farmers have crushed its seeds and used the oil within to light their lamps. Mourners have thrown its seeds into blazing fires and have had their sorrow transformed into blissful ecstasy by the fumes that filled the air. Marihuana has been known by many names: hemp, hashish, dagga, bhang, loco weed, grass-the list is endless. Formally christened Cannabis sativa in 1753 by Carl Linnaeus, marihuana is one of nature's hardiest specimens. It needs little care to thrive. One need not talk to it, sing to it, or play soothing tranquil Brahms lullabies to coax it to grow. It is as vigorous as a weed. It is ubiquitous. It fluorishes under nearly every possible climatic condition.
