"BECAUSE YOUR VAMPIRE SAID SO" by Michele Bardsley ISBN: 9780451223869 (Signet)
 |
When you're immortal, being a mom won't kill you—it will only make you stronger.
Not just anyone can visit Broken Heart, Oklahoma, especially since all the single moms—like me, Patsy Donahue—have been turned into vampires. I'm forever forty, but looking younger than my years, thanks to my new (un)lifestyle.
And even though most of my customers skipped town, I still manage to keep my hair salon up and running, because of the lycanthropes prowling around. They know how important good grooming is—especially a certain rogue shape-shifter who is as sexy as he is deadly. Now, if only I could put a leash on my wild teenage son. He's up to his neck in danger. The stress would kill me if I wasn't already dead. But my maternal instincts are still alive and kicking, so no one had better mess with my flesh and blood…

They wed in haste—Nora Thorngoode, to save her ruined reputation, and Grayson Lowell, to rescue his estate from foreclosure for unpaid debts. Each resents the necessity to exchange vows that will bind them for all time, and yet passionate flames soon arise between them... quickly engulfing them in a sensual obsession.
But soon the lover that Nora married becomes a dark stranger to her—a man torn apart by guilt over his brother's recent, mysterious death and driven half mad by ghostly specters who demand that Grayson expose the truth. Has Nora married a murderer whose wicked deeds blacken everything around them? Or, together, in the secret passageways of Blackheath Grange and along Cornwall's remote coastline, can Grayson and Nora discover what really happened that terrible night and, in setting free the troubled ghosts, free themselves as well?

Edmond Dantes spent years imprisoned for a crime he did not commit. Once free, he returns to Paris in the guise of the powerful Count of Monte Cristo, seeking vengeance on those who sent him to jail. But his plan also includes a different kind of revenge—on the woman he has never forgotten, the lover he has made it his mission to possess.
Mercedes Herrera Mondego was devastated when the man she loved disappeared. Now she is trapped in a loveless marriage, but her passions are reignited by Edmond's return. And though she alone sees through his disguise, this harsh, angry man sends chills down her spine even as his very touch reminds her of the desire they once shared. She realizes soon enough that his plan to avenge himself on the men who incarcerated him also includes another sort of revenge—on her.
From the seaside town of Marseille to the exotic caves of Monte Cristo Isle, an erotic battle of wills unfolds in the most electrifying game of love ever played between man and woman, between master and slave.

Team Darkwing's assignment: Figure out and defuse the terrorist plot. But Daphne gets distracted when vampire hunters storm the city. Is Darius, her hot-and-cold lover, behind their reappearance? This time, will he return to love Daphne... or to commit the ultimate act of betrayal?

 |
Gabriel Tauhou, the leader of the silver dragons, can't take his eyes off May Northcott—not even when May, who has the unique talent of being able to hide in the shadows, has slipped from everyone else's sight.
May, however, has little time for Gabriel—not when she's hiding from the Otherworld law, hunting down a blackmailer, and trying to avoid a demon lord's demands. But her ability to withstand Gabriel's fire marks her as his mate, and he has no intention of letting her disappear into the darkness she seems to prefer.
Then May is ordered to steal one of Gabriel's treasures—an immensely important relic of all dragonkin—and he must decide which to protect: his love or his dragons...
