Mia
Starr is now a full agent working for Sector 13, a secret division of
the FBI, which monitors and controls all paranormal activity. Her
main objective: keep humans safe and the paranormal hidden. Fresh
out of human training, Mia is looking forward to learning all things
paranormal and working with Cole, her deadly and sexy vampire lover.
Before she has a chance to settle into her new life, she’s
abducted. With her powers unfolding, an ancient enemy is revealed,
and a powerful lineage to rival all others.
Cole
Barnett will stop at nothing to get Mia back. Pushed to his breaking
point when old ties surface, the vampire within him claws at his
restraint leaving him with one choice—let it rage! Cole leaves a
trail of blood and broken rules he’ll have to answer for in his
wake to find Mia. Once he does, he also uncovers a connection between
them that could shift the world of the undead. Now the one he covets
is the one he needs to let go—her survival depends on it. But his
stubborn human has set out to prove him wrong in a battle for love
and her own life.

Short Excerpt: BLOGGERS CHOICE
Excerpt 1:
“Did
you love her?” she blurted out the question that had been burning
inside her.
“No.”
Cole stalked toward the couch. As the music started, he picked up a
remote, pressed a button, and the ceiling opened. A large sheet of
glass separated them from the moon, stars, and the night’s glow
shone down on them inside Cole’s spacious and luxurious log cabin.
“I’ve only loved one.”
“Oh.”
Her breath caught as his hand reached over the back of the couch
toward her.
“Dance
with me.”
Cole
folded his fingers around Mia’s hand. Arching their arms, he guided
her around the couch and pulled her into his embrace. Folding her
hand into his chest, he entwined their limbs and placed them between
their bodies. His free hand traveled down her back and came to rest
in the dip above her waist as he pulled her closer. “I had hopes to
share a nice shower after we’d talked but it turned into wet
solitude. I need to be close to you, Mia.”
When
he placed his thigh between her legs, her breath hitched. Mia’s
eyes traveled across his bare skin, up, until she met his gaze with a
shy smile. The anxiety from moments ago was fading with each tiny
sway of his hips. When the music entered her ears, a petite giggle
escaped. She hadn’t expected Etta James, although, At
Last was one of her favorite
songs.
“Are
you laughing at me, Agent Starr?” The corner of his mouth crinkled
with his smile.
“A
vampire that likes the blues?”
“We
are sad creatures, aren’t we?”
“You’re
a good man, Detective.” Her tone was serious, and she squeezed him
with reassurance.
“Am
I?” He leaned closer to her lips, hovering just above them, making
her breath quiver from his nearness.
“Yes.”
“I
think I have a few more dances with the devil before I can reclaim my
soul and be considered a good
man.” His hand slid over her
cheek, holding her in place with a heated stare. “But…” At this
moment, everything was perfect. He seemed just as affected with her
nearness as they stood there listening to the song come to a close.
“I’d sell my soul all over again just to have your smile against
my lips—for you are mine at
last.” He sang the last
words in a whisper against her mouth.
