From sucking the life from her beloved to asserting herself as a true elite master of blood-filling and sexual prowess, this story follows the bloodsucking adventures of a female vampire that has it all.
Unfortunately, the elite undead still have scrapes with the reaper and this female temptress is beginning to realize that even well-executed plans can falter. Then there’s Daron Alexander; the only human in more than four-hundred years to put her sexual radar through an unnerving series of both gratifying and terrible loops.
Will she allow Daron to be her undoing or will she take her place as the master temptress and destroy all who get in her way? To find out, join the vampire ranks on this harrowing and seductive journey as our female seductress struggles with lust, loyalty, and love.
Excerpt:
She stood against a light pole near the curb outside a pub I liked to frequent when I was in town, The Axe and Fiddle.Β I liked the music and atmosphere and, what can I say, it was a great place to pick up fine blood fills. We were in Cottage Grove, ten minutes from Eugene, so I figured she was an undergraduate at the University of Oregon. Her pouty lips accepted a cigarette effortlessly and the smoke enveloped her curves like she had just appeared out of nothing. Her low-cut plaid skirt waved slightly in the subtle breeze and I wondered what Iβd find if I got the chance to sneak a peek. I had to go talk to her so I pulled out a pack of Camelβs to show her I was friendly.
βMay I have a light?β
I thought I startled her, but she quickly replied, βYouβ¦youβre beautiful!β She shook as she held the lighter out for me.
βThanks,β I snapped as if I was extremely narcissistic or didnβt care. Funny enough, both were true. I had heard that line thousands of times, and it just didnβt have the same effect as it used to when I was a budding vamp. However, since she was my first woman, I thought Iβd let it slide.
She just kept staring at me, scanning me with her hazel eyes like she had to take me in a few times so she would never forget what had graced her presence. She was almost as pretty as I was, but I had a beauty secret she could never maintain; fresh unsuspecting blood. It was tragic really, knowing that her death was only hours away at most. But I hungered for wet flesh and she was the prize I craved.
βSo, whereβre you from?β I asked.
She continued to stare. βIβmβ¦uhβ¦Joana.β
I smirked. βSo, youβre from Joana? Whereβs that?β
βOh, um, no! Thatβs my nameβ¦Iβm from Portland!β
I winked at her. βYou know you donβt have to shout it, darling. I have perfectly good ears. Iβm from Salem, myself.β
Her gaze locked on my three carat diamond earrings dangling from flawless lobes. They were spoils from my last rendezvous. βI shouldnβt be talking to you.β She hesitated. βIβm not like you.β
βWell thatβs what I was hoping for. If you were just like me, I wouldnβt be able to have the kind of fun that I was hoping for later.β
Her eyes widened. βWhat do you mean?β
Now, I could have taken it slow and just brushed my index finger across her rosy cheek while talking her up a bit, but I could tell she was the kind of girl that got taken advantage of quite often. She reeked of insecurity and, while I liked the hunt just as much as the next vamp, I thought she would be an easy way to test my curiosity for the same gender. Her needy gaze reminded me of all the men I had seduced. She would do whatever I wanted whether words were involved or not. Just like I craved blood, she craved acceptance and she didnβt care what the price was as long as she got what she needed; no matter how temporary.

Β About the Author:
Lots of individuals like to credit their college degree or some life hero for their accomplishments (and that’s fine), but Morgan Hunter prefers to call it an overactive sex-drive coupled with an imagination that teeters on the edge of insanity. After two tours in the military and many a quarrel with the written word, decadent erotic stories slowly began to emerge. Many years later, while sitting comfortably at home, Morgan found a way to make complete strangers’ special places tingle from thousands of miles away.
Oregon harbors the Hunter family along with two spoiled dogs.
