Blurb:
Ball gowns and bite marks…
Mari Di Bartolo was a witch coming back to her roots in
Salem. Juggling work and school, she is a woman on a mission until she is
attacked one night after work and left for dead. When Mari is about to step
through the veil, she is given a choice-become a vampire or fade away. She
chooses life. Nevertheless, it’s not her new Sire that holds Mari’s attention,
but the strange and enigmatic Fae with the golden green eyes. Full of mischief
and mayhem, the night of the Vampire Ball is upon her and all that glitters may
just be her teeth in the moonlight.
Darkness lurks in the shadows…
Fenris is the Captain of the Guard for the Queen of the Dark
Court. For centuries he’s secured the barrier between the human world and
Faery, part of a Protectorate that keeps humans blissfully ignorant of the
beings hidden in their midst. But when another rogue wolf attack brings him to
a crime scene, he remembers another girl with long dark hair and eyes that
spoke to his soul. On a night filled with wild magic, there will be blood and
some of it might just be given willingly.
*Includes Bonus: Map Of Bones, a prequel short story to
Malediction.

Excerpt from Sanguine
Shadows by Erzabet Bishop
Her eyes widened and her lips parted and he caught a glimpse
of fang. “I…didn’t know you cared.”
“If I didn’t, why would I have convinced Roark to turn you?”
He tugged her closer, the push of her breasts against his chest making it hard
to concentrate on mere words. He’d known she was meant for him from the first
second he’d seen her but he had to let Roark take her or risk her dying.
“You don’t know me. I was just a girl on the street. A human
not worth your consideration.”
Fenris didn’t miss the hurt in her eyes. Perhaps he had been
wrong leaving her alone. He’d been convinced he was right letting her
assimilate unhindered into her new life. He also couldn’t fault her reasoning.
She was right. They had no claim on one another, only an attraction that blazed
to life in the most untenable of situations.
But she was wrong on one account. He had noticed her
before-just not in a way he might have acted upon. Human and supernatural
interaction was forbidden but he was unable to let her die. Not like that.
He wasn’t able to
stop thinking about her and hadn’t since that night.
“I did notice you, witchling. How could I not?” He lifted a
finger and traced the side of her face, his cock hardening at the moan that
slipped unbidden from her lips. “You burn inside of me. Only I couldn’t act.
Not until then. But I had to save you. To do anything else…” He let his voice
trail off and watched her reaction.
Mari blinked and reached forward, pressing her lips to his. “It’s
like a fire, isn’t it? A fire in the blood.”
“Oh Gods, yes.”
