Fatal Desire
by Valerie Twombly

Guardians
Series, Book Two

Caleb is dark, hot, and commanding in human form. As a dragon, he’s a force to be reckoned with. When he witnesses the slave Lileta being beaten by his Overlord Odage, he nearly comes unglued. Without understanding why, he asks to take the slave as his own, but soon realizes his longing is more than an attraction to a beautiful woman. In a sick twist of fate, the gods have given him a demon as his mate—one he can never touch unless he wishes his own death. His only choice is to grant her freedom.

Lileta wanted to kill Caleb, but when she is freed by this tempting male, her anger turns to a desire that can only prove fatal. Even if she could claim him as her own, her dark past makes her unworthy of his love.

When their paths continue to intertwine, spiraling them to the brink of passion, can they resist the yearnings burning within them, or will they submit to their fatal desire?

Dark Promise
by Gwendolyn Cease

Promises
Series, Book One

Joelle Quinn doesn't live much differently than any other working person, holding down two jobs and struggling to keep her head above water. But all of that changes when a vampire walks into her life. He doesn't ask for much: he merely wants Joelle to give her blood to another vampire, one who is nearly insane.

Talon struggles to hold the darkness at bay, fighting back a raging beast inside. The urge to kill and bathe in the blood of anyone in his vicinity is something he lives with every day—until he meets the one woman who holds the key to his sanity, and perhaps his very survival.

Dark Surrender
by Temple Hogan

Taste of Darkness
Series, Book Three

Vampire Hunter, Marika Stanislaus—or little sister as her older, protective brothers like to call her—is on her own for the first time. With both men tied up in Europe, she’s the only one left to investigate an active vampire at work in the Florida Keys. She’s tired of her brothers treating her like a baby. After all, she’s one hundred and ten years old, a woman of the world.

Nicholas Kyrillos just wants a quiet, peaceful retreat where he can rest and contemplate something other than dodging hunters who want to nuke him. He has few rules, chief among them, no women. With a daily supply of blood from a medical house, he plans to walk the shoreline and read all the literary classics he’s missed the past century or so. He never reckoned on a rogue vampire, who’s picking off unsuspecting tourists as his personal smorgasbord, or on a gung-ho, fresh-faced vampire hunter who’s unrelenting in everything she pursues, especially when she’s spent the night in his bed. Where’s the peace now?

Three Ways to Wicked
by Melinda Barron

Bestselling Author Krisily Carmichael needs a break from her life. Her horrid ex-boyfriend sold naked photos of her, and now she’s plastered all over the nation’s largest skin magazine. So when an advertisement for a rental cottage near Bath appears in her mailbox, she snatches up the offer.

When she arrives at the remote English cottage, she finds a charming country home with a huge botanical garden…complete with four magical beings trapped inside.

Victim of a wayward spell, the Sorcerer Uriel and his alchemist cousins, Bythos and Acolius, have spent centuries trapped inside their garden with an evil witch who wants their secrets. Krisily’s arrival sets off a string of events foretold to bring about the witch’s end. Unfortunately, they have to contend with the witch’s curse, which took one sense from each of the men.

But the four of them find a way to communicate, and they come together in a blaze of passion that helps them to destroy the witch and meet their destiny.

Oriana and the Three Werebears
by Tia Fanning

Oriana Ricci has taken over the family business—flying cargo and rich tourists around Alaska’s barely inhabited Kodiak Archipelago. When her plane malfunctions and she’s forced to make an emergency landing, she finds herself stranded in the middle of a National Wildlife Refuge. With no civilization for miles and no hope of rescue, she thinks all is lost… Until she stumbles upon the entrance to an underground bunker.

Jack, Jordan, and Jonathan McMathan own and operate a secret intelligence firm contracted by the US Government. Hidden away in an old Cold War spy station located the middle of the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge, the brothers are not only able to do their top secret jobs safely without fear of discovery, but are better to protect their other, more personal secret: They have the ability to shift into Kodiak bears.

Like a fairy tale gone bad, the brothers return home to find their lunch tasted—or eaten, their computer chairs adjusted—or broken, and a beautiful blonde sleeping in one of their beds. This situation poses a big problem for the brothers… Their location is now compromised. But more importantly, what are they to do with the lady?
