The Consolation Prize
Barbara Elsborg - 2008
Accommodation and nourishment provided. All spa treatments included.’ The prize should have been a big thrill—an all-expenses paid trip to a spa, but it was actually the topping on Chloe’s really bad night. Washburn Hall is where her family died, and is the last place she wants to go, yet she finds herself pulled towards the spa by forces beyond her control. Chloe wonders if the gorgeous naked man in chains is part of the spa’s all-inclusive package. Somehow she doesn’t think so, but you know what? She’s taking the consolation prize: free him and run. It should be simple enough. After all, the only thing between Chloe and the man of her dreams is a few horny vamps, a decent set of bolt cutters, and a step-grandmother from hell. Who said the trip to the spa wouldn’t be fun?
Hunted
Amelia Elias - 2006
First installment in The Guardians' League series (stand-alone novels with shared characters that may be read in any order but work best in the correct order).

When she wakes up in bed with a gorgeous stranger who claims to have saved her life, she's understandably wary. Diego Leonides is like no one she's ever met before. Sensual, mysterious, and clearly delusional, he insists not only is he a vampire, but she's now his eternal mate. Diego never dreamed he'd find his mate by getting hit by her car, and he's no happier about their sudden bonding than she is. The only survivor of a massacre that wiped out his entire Clan, he's spent the last century avoiding taking a mate. Now he finds himself stuck with a woman running from a murderer just as the descendants of the vampire slayers who killed his family arrive in San Francisco to finish the job with him. Arranged marriages are hard enough on a vampire without having to convince his mate that the real bloodthirsty fiends are the mortals.
