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.

Taken by a Vampire


Book Description

Groomed from birth to be an Inherited Servant and serve only the most powerful vampire Masters, Alanna never resented her destiny. Then she did the unthinkable: she betrayed her Master to the Vampire Council. Now death is her future, but until her Master is captured, she must be protected. The Vampire Council assigns her to Evan, a vampire whose wandering lifestyle makes him the perfect guardian... Alanna's training was for a vampire of power and ambition, not for someone like Evan who lives in mountainside shacks and caves. Even his servant, Niall, is rough mannered. But these two men are about to teach Alanna something her rigorous training never did: how to feel, how to desire...perhaps even how to love. Then the Council captures her Master, and Alanna has no choice but to accept her destiny. But Evan and Niall are no strangers to defying fate--and they will stop at nothing to make Alanna theirs forever...
