I have to share this with all of you vampire lovers out there! I was shadowing a vampire hunter out to destroy all evil bloodsuckers but in a stunning twist - she finds herself teaming up with a tall, dark, & too sexy-for-his-own-good, Ryker who is definitely gorgeous enough to be a vampire finding the vampire king before some evil monsters do! Enjoy and don't forget to add NIGHT'S KISS - the 2nd book in The Ancients series by Mary Hughes to your shelves!

As a human who hunts vampires, I risk death each night I take to the streets. Bloodsuckers are stupidly fast. I have only my wits, my practice, and my weapons.

Oh yeah, and my rage.

Vampires killed my parents before my eyes when I was young. My revenge? I'll destroy every last one of the evil bastards, starting with their king.

But only one man can help me locate the king. Achingly tall, dark, and too-sexy-for-his-own-good, Ryker is gorgeous enough to be the vamp king himself. But the devilish arch to his black eyebrow, his white, unfangy grin, and rocking the daytime are good clues that he's human.

We’ll have to work together as uneasy allies if I hope to get my final revenge on the king—only now it seems evil monsters are also after our prey, and they’ll stop at nothing to see us all dead. And why are they having so much trouble finding the king?

Each book in the Ancients series is STANDALONE:

Kat is a human who hunts vampires, risking death with only her wits, practice, her weapons and her rage in her quest to avenge her parents by destroying every last one of the evil bloodsuckers – starting with their king. Ryker is gorgeous enough to the be the vamp king himself but the devilish arch to his back eyebrow, white unfangy grin and the rocking daytime are good clues that he’s human. He’s the only man that can help Kat locate the king, so she forms an uneasy alliance with him only for them to discover that evil monster are also after their prey…oh and also want Kat and Ryker dead.

The second book in ‘Ancients Series’ is an energetic, thrilling and exciting read full of flying sparks and adrenaline pumping danger. The characters are strong, daring and demand the readers’ attention right from the start and the chemistry between Kat and Ryker sizzles with bright electrical current creating lots of flying sparks to singe the pages as Kat fights their magnetic attraction with some feisty snark and tough as nails attitude. This relationship is balanced on a razor wire that keeps the hero, heroine and the readers on edge throughout as Kay and Ryker, each have the same mission but the their goals are vastly different. 

The plot is fast paced with non-stop excitement whether that excitement is coming from clashes between Kat and Ryker, Kat and her long lost family, Kat and her targets, Ryker and the Alliance, or Kat, Ryker and the monsters. With so much action and excitement flowing from the pages, there is never a dull moment to be found and the romance is one where the hero and heroine are the last to know.

A Vampire’s Thirst: Dark, Dangerous and Undeniable!

Quinn Alexander is rich, handsome…and an ancient Vampire. He doesn’t want to be in Hong Kong for the launch of his next multi-billion dollar gaming sensation, but needs must.

Then the Thirst strikes. Like a bolt of lightning, quick as a snake’s bite…power surging through him at the same time as his craving for human blood rockets out of control…and if there’s one thing that Quinn abhors it's losing control. Of anything.

Lost in the backstreets of a foreign land, a scent assaults him, overpowers his senses, stuns him completely until he’s rushing headlong toward it with no thought other than to reach it and make it his. A shout, a scream, a cry for help…and Quinn knows it’s his Bloodmate.

Can he reach her in the meandering maze? And when he does will it be in time?

The hunt is on, the battle fierce…only the strong survive a Vampire’s Thirst!

Quinn’s ‘Thirst’ explodes from the pages of his story in an emotionally gripping bomb that captivates readers from the very beginning.

TGIF Readers! Today I am sharing the newest Immortal Guardians novel - Death of Darkness! Enjoy and don't forget to enter the giveaway!

Seth has led the Immortal Guardians for thousands of years. With them fighting by his side, he has protected humans from psychotic vampires, defeated corrupt mercenary armies, defended military bases under attack, and more. But the latest enemy to rise against the Immortal Guardians has proven to be a formidable one, wielding almost as much power as Seth. His goal is simple. He wants to watch the world burn. And he will use every means at his disposal to accomplish it. Seth and his Immortal Guardians have succeeded thus far in staving off Armageddon despite heartbreaking losses. But they have never before faced such danger. Seth has only one wish: to protect his Immortal Guardians family and ensure the continuation of humanity by defeating his foe. But then Leah walks into his life and sparks a new desire.

Leah Somerson has suffered losses of her own. It has taken her a long time to rebuild her life and find some semblance of peace. Then one night a tall, dark, powerful immortal with what appears to be the weight of the world on his shoulders stumbles into her shop, and everything changes. Peace and contentment are no longer enough. Now she wants more. She wants to find happiness. She wants to erase the darkness in Seth’s eyes and replace it with love and laughter. She knows he’s different in ways that make most fear him. Even some of his immortal brethren keep a careful distance. But Leah will not. Nor will she shy away when danger strikes.

Hello!  Thank you for joining me. I’m happy to be here at Stormy Vixen’s Book Reviews, celebrating the release of DEATH OF DARKNESS, the latest book in my Immortal Guardians series. If you like powerful immortal males who adore strong, kick-ass women, and lost of action, passion, humor and romance, then I think you’ll enjoy this books. If you’re new to my series, don’t worry. Each book can be read as a stand-alone novel. You’ll just know more about the secondary characters if you read the books in order.

I have loved books for as long as I can remember and have always been a voracious reader. There are over two thousand paperbacks on my keeper shelves. And I’ve lost count of the number of ebooks I have on my devices. So whenever someone asks me to name my top five all-time favorite books, I’m guessing I acquire a deer-in-the-headlights look. Just five? Impossible!! :-)

My top five favorites actually tend to change from time to time, depending on my mood and what’s happening in my life. But here are the ones who most often make the list of…

My Top 5 All-Time Favorite Reads

Stephen King’s ON WRITING. Because I’m a writer, I had to include this one. I am a huge admirer of Stephen King. He is the one author I can always count on to phrase something in each of his books that will make me think, “Wow. No one else would’ve thought to describe that in such a way.” He knows the craft so well. I learn something new every time I read one of his books. And his fiction novels always fire my imagination and make me want to sit down and write for hours. So it didn’t surprise me at all when I loved ON WRITING, too. I enjoyed the tale of his path to publication and could easily relate to it. But I liked even more that he covered aspects of writing that my creative writing professors in college never mentioned. Whenever new writers ask my advice, I’m always quick to recommend this. :-)

Gena Showalter’s THE DARKEST NIGHT. Paranormal romance is one of my favorite genres, so I have read many over the years. This one really stood out. I loved the characters and the storytelling. It was a great introduction to an entertaining series. And I always enjoy indulging in a reread.

Laurann Dohner’s FURY. This totally hooked me on Laurann’s New Species series. I’ve devoured every book in it since… more than once… AND listened to the audiobooks. It’s my go-to series whenever I’m stressing over deadlines. And no matter where I dive back into New Species, I always end up wanting to return to Fury’s story.

Karen Marie Moning’s THE IMMORTAL HIGHLANDER. The books in the Highlander series were among the first time travel romances I ever read. And I really enjoyed them. This one—The Immortal Highlander—was my favorite and one I think of and return to often.

Stephen King’ THE STAND (Uncut). What can I say? Stephen King is a phenomenal writer. I think this was the first horror novel I ever read, and I absolutely loved it. In my opinion, it’s one of his best. I could read it again and again.

So what five books are on your all-time favorites list? :-)
