Tracker's Sin by Sarah McCarty
Hell's Eight Series #4
WED BY NECESSITY…JOINED BY DESIRE
Before
his trade became his name, “Tracker” Ochoa was a scrawny Mestizo
runaway. Now as fearsome as he once was frightened, he’s joined the
notorious Hell’s Eight...and they have a job for him.
He must
rescue kidnapped heiress Ari Blake and deliver her safely to the Hell’s
Eight compound—by any means necessary. Turns out that includes marrying
her, if he means to escort her and her infant son across the Texas
Territory. Tracker hadn’t bargained on a wife—especially such a fair,
blue-eyed beauty. But the erotic pleasures of the marriage bed more than
make up for the surprise.
Tracker’s well-muscled bronze skin
and dark, dangerous eyes are far more exciting than any of Ari’s former
debutante dreams. In the light of day, though, his deep scars and
brooding intensity terrify her. But he’s her husband and she’s at his
mercy. With the frontier against them and mercenary bandits at their
heels, Ari fears she’ll never feel safe again.
Tracker, too,
remembers what fear feels like. Though he burns to protect Ari, to keep
her for himself always, he knows that money, history—and especially the
truth—can tear them apart.

World of Ascension Series # 4
Enter a hidden world of winged vampire warriors—and the women they are sworn protect...
For
years, she was kept as a human slave—one of seven unwilling “blood
donors” for the death vampires who thirst for absolute power. Now, Fiona
is a free woman, haunted by her memories of being strapped to a gurney,
drained of blood, then revived at the last moment. She lives to avenge
her captors—but only one warrior can help her...
Jean-Pierre has
lived and fought for over two-hundred years. He knows the triumph of
slaying a death vampire, but has never known anything like the feelings
that arise when he becomes Fiona’s guardian. Her beauty, her pain, her
passion—and her growing power—consume his senses.
Now the warrior must
draw his sword once more…and fight the gates of hell itself—for love.
Bring on the Night by Jeri Smith-Ready
WVMP Radio Series # 3
WHAT’S BLOOD GOT TO DO
WITH IT? Recovering con artist Ciara Griffin seems to finally have it
all. A steady job at WVMP, the Lifeblood of Rock ’n’ Roll. A loving
relationship with the idiosyncratic but eternally hot DJ Shane
McAllister. A vampire dog who never needs shots or a pooper-scooper. And
after nine years, it looks as if she might actually finish her
bachelor’s degree!
But fate has other plans for Ciara. First she
must fulfill her Faustian bargain with the Control, the paranormal
paramilitary agency that does its best to keep vampires in line. Turns
out the Control wants her for something other than her (nonexistent)
ability to kick undead ass. Her anti-holy blood, perhaps? Ciara’s
suspicions are confirmed when she’s assigned to a special-ops division
known as the Immanence Corps, run by the Control’s oldest vampire and
filled with humans who claim to have special powers. To a confirmed
skeptic like Ciara, it sounds like a freak fest.
But when a mysterious
fatal virus spreads through Sherwood—and corpses begin to rise from
their graves—Ciara will not only get a crash course in zombie-killing,
but will be forced to put her faith, and her life itself, in the hands
of magic.
Child of a Rainless Year by Jane Lindskold
Art teacher Mira Fenn's
life was curiously lacking in color until the day she learned of a
mysterious inheritance from her birthmother--a long-abandoned house in
New Mexico. Dim childhood memories begin to brighten in Mira's mind--her
colorfully exotic mother, the curiously silent women who were her
mother's servants.
Returning to New Mexico, Mira discovers that
the house is a faded thing, looked after by the charismatic Domingo
Navidad. But when Mira dreams of her childhood home, it is a riot of
color--and she and Domingo soon set to work to bring her dreams to life.
Color brings more than just an old house back to life. The
bright paint Mira applies to wood and plaster seems to reach into her
soul, to awaken powers trapped in a decades-long slumber. The silent
women reappear, carrying with them a great secret. Convinced her mother
is still alive, Mira searches for her, journeying through a sea of light
and color to a time and place far from her own.
Who and what she finds there will alter her world forever.
