About book#1:

Here, Anna struggles with her love for the two men who inhabit the realms of each: Max, a human DEA agent, and Avery, a Night Watcher who joins Anna in pursuit of the vampire who changed her life.

About book#1:
As a Chancellor, a vampire-human hybrid, Ambrose O’Brien is used to handling tough negotiations between the human and vampire clans of New Eire—except when the challenging and sexy vampire heiress Miranda Connor is involved. Though Ambrose longs to find out if she’s as fiesty in the bedroom as she is at the bargaining table, it’s unthinkable that an upper-class vampire would ever take a half-breed like him as a lover….
But when Miranda’s family is attacked, Ambrose is the only person she can trust. And with an unknown enemy uniting them, the real danger may be their explosive passion….
About book#1:
On Solange’s sixteenth birthday, she is going to wake up dead. As if that’s not bad enough, she also has to outwit her seven overprotective older brothers, avoid the politics involved with being the only daughter born to an ancient vampire dynasty, and elude Kieran Black—agent of an anti-vampire league who is searching for his father’s killer and is intent on staking Solange and her entire family.
Luckily she has her own secret weapon—her human best friend Lucy—who is willing to defend Solange’s right to a normal life, whether she’s being smothered by her well-intentioned brothers or abducted by a power-hungry queen. Two unlikely alliances are formed in a race to save Solange’s eternal life—Lucy and Solange’s brother Nicholas, and Solange and Kieran Black—in a dual romance that is guaranteed to jump start any romance-lover’s heart.
Even fans of the genre who’ve seen it all will find a fresh read with kick-butt characters and family dynamics that ring true for all brothers and sisters—vampire or otherwise.
When Darkness Comes (Guardians of Eternity Book 1)
Well, well, well… I had no idea the “Guardians” were full-fledged vampires. Not that I wouldn’t have read the series eventually, but upon the very high recommendations from fellow readers (and Sherry’s super generosity), my reading time for the next couple of weeks has been filled.
These are old-school vampires, folks. Can’t see their own reflection, have no recollection of their human lives, have mind control, super speed strength, oh and, they are inhumanely gorgeous. All of ’em (at least from what I can tell so far). Don’t be fooled, however. Just because they are vampires (which makes them, essentially “demon”), they do have the ability to choose between good and evil, and recognize the “good or bad” in others around them. Even humans.
As per the author’s website about book#1:
