Compelled By The Vampire
Kellie McAllen - 2018
He doesn’t drink from humans, he’s never even taken a vein, and the idea of infecting a human is abhorrent to him. As leader of the Vampire Enforcement Agency, his job is to find and capture the vamps who betray humans’ recently-earned trust. Until one human woman tempts him to break all the rules. When Roric intercepts a rogue vamp attack and finds Caroline dying, he can’t resist her blood or beauty, and in a moment of passion he does the unthinkable. But Caroline despises the monsters who killed her parents, and she’d rather die than be a vampire. With vamp attacks at an all-time high and Caroline resisting Roric at every turn, his job, his family, even his life is at risk. Worse, Caroline's attacker wants her just as bad as Roric does, and he knows Roric’s secret. Roric will do anything to earn Caroline’s trust, but can he keep her safe long enough to convince her that life as a vampire isn’t a death sentence? If you like sexy, thrilling paranormal romance/urban fantasy stories by authors like JR Ward, Bella Forrest, and IT Lucas, you’ll love Compelled by the Vampire. This PNR/UF series is appropriate for ages 18+.
Demon Study
Kendal Davis - 2020
The worst part? People kept telling me I was supposed to save the world. Shouldn’t there be a class for that? I’m Echo. I led a perfectly normal life until I had to transfer to a magic academy in order to escape the hellhounds in the hallway. Grimway Academy was not totally unlike my old college. There were rich kids who looked down their noses at me. Also, there were books. That was pretty much the end of the similarities. At Grimway, demons and humans had mingled together for centuries, keeping the universe in balance. Now, however, the spells that encased the ancient castle were growing weak. If they failed, chaos would reign. Everywhere. According to Grimway lore, I could develop my magic faster if I had sex with seductive demon men. Yes, please. Only when I’d attracted the loyalty of a sensuous vampire and a boisterous firebringer could I get moving on this saving-the-universe stuff. Add in a sexy, broad-shouldered prefect who was a dreamwalker, just like me, and I was a happy woman. Or...I was a cursed college student whose world was about to end in fire. Author’s Note: Expect steamy reverse harem scenes, with no crossed swords. This book is for a mature audience.
