Blood Engines (Marla Mason #1)

by T. A. Pratt

Meet Marla Mason--smart, saucy, slightly wicked witch of the East Coast. Sorcerer Marla Mason, small-time guardian of the city of Felport, has a big problem. A rival is preparing a powerful spell that could end Marla's life-and, even worse, wreck her city. Marla's only chance of survival is to boost her powers with the Cornerstone, a magical artifact hidden somewhere in San Francisco. But when she arrives there, Marla finds that the quest isn't going to be quite as cut-and-dried as she expected, and that some of the people she needs to talk to are dead. It seems that San Francisco's top sorcerers are having troubles of their own-a mysterious assailant has the city's magical community in a panic, and the local talent is being (gruesomely) picked off one by one. With her partner-in-crime, Rondeau, Marla is soon racing against time through San Francisco's alien streets, dodging poisonous frogs, murderous hummingbirds, cannibals, and a nasty vibe from the local witchery, who suspect that Marla herself may be behind the recent murders. And if Marla doesn't figure out who is killing the city's finest in time, she'll be in danger of becoming a magical statistic herself.

Blood Feud (The Drake Chronicles Book #2)

by Alyxandra Harvey

It's been centuries since Isabeau St. Croix barely survived the French Revolution. Now she's made her way back to the living and she must face the ultimate test by confronting the evil British lord who left her for dead the day she turned into a vampire. That's if she can control her affection for Logan Drake, a vampire whose bite is as sweet as the revenge she seeks. The clans are gathering for Helena's royal coronation as the next vampire queen, and new alliances are beginning to form now that the old rifts of Lady Natasha's reign have started to heal. But with a new common enemy, Leander Montmarte--a vicious leader who hopes to force Solange to marry him and usurp the power of the throne for himself--the clans must stand together to preserve the peace he threatens to destroy. This second adventure in the Drake Chronicles--told from both Logan's and Isabeau's perspectives--has all the same butt-kicking action, heart-pounding romances and snarky humor that readers loved in Hearts at Stake, as well as exciting new revelations about the vampire dynasties to keep readers coming back for more.

Blood Feud: Hearts At Stake, Blood Feud, And Out For Blood (The Drake Chronicles #2)

by Alyxandra Harvey

The YA fantasy romance saga continues with “vampires with bite and girls who bite back. A witty, exhilarating and fresh take on an old tale” (Kelley Armstrong). The day Isabeau St. Croix was turned into a vampire, she was buried alive and left for dead by a vicious British lord. Now, over two hundred years later, she has finally emerged from her nightmarish captivity to seek revenge. To her dismay, the vampire world is edging on chaos as different factions vie for power, and Isabeau soon finds herself pulled into the shadowy world of undead politics and betrayal. It is there she meets the handsome Logan Drake, whose noble family must fend off those who would try to usurp them. Then the dread vampire Montmartre begins a plot that will force Logan’s sister, Solange, into a marriage that will allow him to claim the throne for himself. And unless the clans stand together—and Isabeau and Logan stand with each other—the entire vampire realm may be torn asunder. With this second adventure in the Drake Chronicles, Alyxandra Harvey “continues to weave an action-packed story full of intrigue, suspense, and romance with a great cast of characters” (School Library Journal). Blood Feud is the 2nd book in the Drake Chronicles, which also includes Hearts at Stake and Out for Blood.

Blood From a Silver Cross

by E. S. Moore

Trust is a dangerous business. Some people still call Kat Redding by her hunter name: Lady Death. But she's not eager to see more violence brought to her doorstep. The neverending tide of hungry supes and vicious humans doesn't change the math--sooner or later Kat's one-vamp battle against the nightmares that infest Columbus is going to leave her dead. And she has innocent people--well, a werewolf and a demon-summoner--depending on her now. But when a rogue werewolf who's opted out of the bloodbath is found crucified and mutilated with toxic silver, Kat knows she'll be tangling again with the dangerous Pureblood murderers of the cult of the Left Hand. She already has an undead countess blackmailing her into taking out the city's garbage and a demon playing with her head. Add to that her serious suspicions about changes at the house of her uneasy ally Jonathan Alucard, werewolf denmaster, and Kat might have finally gotten in danger so deep, not even Lady Death can survive. . .
