Taken By The Vampire King


Book Description

Never make a deal with a billionaire, particularly one who's a vampire . . . The deal is simple: spend a month with a mysterious billionaire who is the owner of Louisiana's La Petite Mort Casino, and he'll forget my father's gambling debts. If it means saving our family home and business, I'll do anything. With his strong, sexy, take charge arrogance, Nicolas Dupont is a mystery to me. But it doesn't matter how hot he is. This is purely a business arrangement. Nic can have any woman he wants and it makes no sense that he'd be interested in a virgin like me. I'm certainly not about to fall for a guy who thinks he can own me. So I go hunting for a way to free myself. When I discover I'm the hunted, and there are those who want my blood, Nic claims he can protect me. But can I trust one of his kind? When this began, I thought I might lose everything. Now I'm not sure if I'll make it out alive . . .




The Queen's Gambit

With even the Duke’s closest advisors suspect to treachery, DaVinci is the only man Sforza can trust to conduct the investigation. With his scrupulous eye for detail, DaVinci uncovers a vile nest of secrets—and danger—but the most surprising secret of all may be the true identity of his most talented, most trusted apprentice. . . . “Impressive . . .

Bound by the Vampire Queen


Book Description

His soul is hers for the asking… Sworn to obedience, compelled by loyalty and love, Jacob entered Lady Lyssa’s service as a human servant. Now he is a vampire, but still bound to Lyssa, who struggles with the burgeoning powers in her paternal Fae blood. All while challenged by new enemies in the Fae and vampire worlds. The Vampire Council has threatened to take away Lyssa and Jacob’s newborn son. The Fae Queen has ordered Lyssa to appear before the Otherworld court. While the Fae have nothing but contempt for vampires, Jacob will follow his lady into hell itself. No one—neither Fae nor vampire--will compel him to break the oath he made to serve his vampire queen forever. Note: Lyssa and Jacob’s story kicked off the Vampire Queen series. Books 1 and 2, Vampire Queen’s Servant and Mark of the Vampire Queen, are therefore highly recommended before reading Bound by the Vampire Queen.
