The Good, the Bad, and the Vampire

 

by Sara Humphreys

 

Trixie LaRoux is a pink-haired, punk rock, badass vampire with mad bartending skills. Everyone in the coven thinks she’s as tough as nails, but only her maker knows the truth; underneath the sultry eye makeup and neon hair is a woman haunted by a past full of troubled relationships.

 

Dakota Shelton is a vampire with deadly, dangerous skills. But with a penchant for Johnny Cash, he’s a good ol’ Southern boy at heart. Thrown together by mutual friends in New York City, Trixie has no idea what to do with Dakota’s old-fashioned chivalry. But after her tumultuous dating history, Trixie just may be ready for the one man she never expected…

Vampires Never Cry Wolf

 

by Sara Humphreys

 

Vampires are nothing but trouble…

 

As far as beautiful vampire Sadie Pemberton is concerned, werewolves shouldn’t be sticking their noses into New York’s supernatural politics. They don’t know jack about running a city—not even that hot-as-sin new vampire-werewolf liaison who’s just arrived in town.

 

Werewolves are too sexy for their own good…

 

The last thing Killian Bane wanted was to end up in New York City playing nice with vampires. Unfortunately, he’s on a mission, and when he encounters the sexiest, most stubborn female vamp he’s ever met, he’s going to have to turn on a little of that wolfish charm…and Sadie’s going to learn a thing or two about what it means to have a wild side…

“The Man” is back

 

Dan “The Man” Currington is back in fighting form with a mission that takes him four thousand miles south of BKI headquarters, high in the Andes Mountains of Peru. He’s hot on the trail of a rogue CIA agent selling classified government secrets to the highest bidder when Penni DePaul arrives on the scene. Suddenly the stakes are sky-high, and keeping Penni safe becomes Dan’s number one priority.

 

And this time she’s ready

 

A lot has changed since former Secret Service Agent Penni DePaul last saw Dan. Now a civilian, she’s excited about what the future might hold.

And a secret that’s going to change both their lives—if they can stay alive, that is.
