Clean Sweep
Ilona Andrews - 2013
She runs a quaint Victorian Bed and Breakfast in a small Texas town, owns a Shih Tzu named Beast, and is a perfect neighbor, whose biggest problem should be what to serve her guests for breakfast. But Dina is...different: Her broom is a deadly weapon; her Inn is magic and thinks for itself. Meant to be a lodging for otherworldly visitors, the only permanent guest is a retired Galactic aristocrat who can’t leave the grounds because she’s responsible for the deaths of millions and someone might shoot her on sight. Under the circumstances, "normal" is a bit of a stretch for Dina.And now, something with wicked claws and deepwater teeth has begun to hunt at night....Feeling responsible for her neighbors, Dina decides to get involved. Before long, she has to juggle dealing with the annoyingly attractive, ex-military, new neighbor, Sean Evans—an alpha-strain werewolf—and the equally arresting cosmic vampire soldier, Arland, while trying to keep her inn and its guests safe. But the enemy she’s facing is unlike anything she’s ever encountered. It’s smart, vicious, and lethal, and putting herself between this creature and her neighbors might just cost her everything.

Bound by Her Blood
Mara Leigh - 2019
Four powerful males hiding dark secrets. Alone, each is lost, but together their passion and power ignite, changing all five and the entire vampire world, forever. I'm alone on the streets when a vampire drains me and leaves me for dead. Somehow I transition without help from my Maker—that’s not supposed to be possible—but life as a lone, female vampire is harsh, staying out of sunlight and hunted by both the predatory vamp syndicates and the human police—who have orders to stake vampires on sight. Things go from bad to worse when I'm captured by an evil vampire king who declares I'll be his mate. When I refuse to marry him, I'm punished for months. Near death, I escape, pursued by the king's most vicious guard. I'm weak from starvation when Rock, a giant, ruggedly-handsome man finds me in the alley and offers me sanctuary. But while his looks and kindness ignite passion inside me and soon capture my heart, it becomes clear that Rock's not actually human and has dark, painful secrets of his own that keep him from giving me what my body most desires. Rock introduces me to his charming and elegant vampire friend Grayson, who sweeps me off my feet, quite literally, with offers to feed me, bed me, and help me develop my power. Gray has everything my body craves, but he’s hiding secrets, too, and while he gives me such pleasure, I fear he may never offer his heart. The three of us stay one step ahead of the vampire king and the human cops, who are searching for a vampire serial killer. My quest for safety is derailed when I grab the attention of Colton, a hunky, clean-cut cop, who has vowed to kill every vampire alive. I can’t deny how hard I’m drawn to Colton—a human—but at least he doesn’t recognize what I am. Not yet. And I can’t shake my suspicion that Pike, the vicious but sexy guard, who facilitated my escape from the king’s dungeon, is lurking in the shadows, watching me, and waiting for his chance to take me back. **Bound by her Blood is book one in a hot new vampire paranormal romance series.

While being wooed by warlocks and stalked by Drake, an unapologetic vampire, Harper begins to fall for Rowan, a gruff shapeshifter who is the only good thing about her new life, even though he’s completely off-limits. When the masters eventually get tired of waiting on Harper to choose a warlock mate, they decide to take matters into their own hands. Knowing that none of her admirers will be able to reach her in time, Harper will have to figure out how to finally embrace magic and wield her new powers to save herself. And if there’s one thing she’s actually learned at the Wicked Academy, it’s that sometimes being bad can feel really good.
