"I can’t wait for the next book!" — Nalini Singh

"Dark, sexy, and captivating.” — Jeaniene Frost

When Dr. Elliott Drake and his four friends emerge from a cave after wild earthquakes and storms, they find themselves in a changed Las Vegas, threatened by immortal beings and other new dangers. More unsettling: Elliott has somehow acquired an extraordinary ability—the power to heal with his touch. But even that ability is a two-edged sword, for Elliott learns that his gift can bring pain and death just as often as it heals.

Jade Kapiza, who was once imprisoned by the Strangers—the dangerous immortals who bring danger to Vegas and beyond—has been in hiding for years. But now she's determined to help the Resistance fight back against the control of her former captors by traveling the countryside, secretly delivering news and resources.

Jade can trust no one...but when Elliott comes into her life, he pushes at her defenses and begins to tear down the walls she's built so carefully. Yet the mysterious doctor seems to have secrets of his own...Can Jade trust Elliott with her heart, even as they risk their lives to save a band of innocents?

And can Elliott find a new place for himself—a home—in this alternate world?

Can you imagine Twilight with carriages, ballgowns, gloves, and corsets? With prim and proper manners, and the wealthy, powerful dukes and lords of London Society?

And then what happens when Voss, the most jaded vampire of them all, falls for a lovely, innocent debutante. She has a sassy wit, a delicious scent...and information he needs desperately.

Plus, her brother is a vampire hunter.

Enter the world of the Draculia, where
In 19th Century London, vampires live alongside the uppercrust members of Society...
Even after centuries of lust, hedonism, and women, Voss, the Viscount Dewhurst, rarely finds himself bored. As a member of the Dracule, he is a rogue of the first order, a man who loves nothing more than a warm woman, excellent vintage, and even a puzzling challenge to keep his mind active.

But when one of his seemingly harmless manipulations sets him on the path to seduce the beautiful Miss Angelica Woodmore, things become a little less simple…a lot more passionate…and definitely more complicated.

And when the most evil vampire of the Dracule puts Angelica in his sights, Voss will have to risk everything to save her…and possibly his own soul.

La noche de los vampiros (Romance de Vampiros) (Las Aventuras de la Cazadora Gardella nº 2) (Spanish Edition) Nov 9, 2011

by Colleen Gleason , Emilia Merlo

( 2 )

$3.99

“En un marco hipnótico y personajes contrariados, esta novela es atrapante hasta el final”.
-- J.R. Ward, New York Times bestselling author of Lover Revealed

(Este libro fue previamente publicado con el nombre En Calor de la Noche.)

En un mar de ojos enrojecidos y manos alborotadas, Victoria permanecía en pie hasta que sus opositores la derribaron. Tuvo tan sólo un momento para tocarse el amuleto antes de que las embravecidas criaturas se lanzaran sobre ella. Gritando, pateando y a golpe de puñetazos, intentó liberarse en vano. Uno de ellos se acercó tanto que Victoria creyó que podría reducirlo, pero cuando intentó alcanzar su estaca, otra criatura la atacó por detrás y monopolizó sus manos. Otros dos vampiros la cogieron de los pies y la joven creyó no tener escapatoria. Victoria intentó soltarse, pero los brazos que la sujetaban eran demasiado fuertes; no pudo soltarse, alcanzar sus estacas, tomar el agua bendita, ni su crucifijo…

Manos embravecidas la tocaban por todos lados, arañándola y tirándole el cabello. Su peinado se soltó y su pelo cayó como una cascada facilitando el ataque de sus oponentes. Su cuello quedó aún más expuesto, una mano inclinó su cabeza hacia atrás y otra la despojó de su blusa. Su cuello y su pecho fueron expuestos y el aroma del cuarto envolvió sus sentidos. Aquel aroma era narcótico y Victoria cayó en trance. Cuando sus dientes se hincaron en su piel, la joven cazadora sintió un alivio enorme.

The girls are back!
Evaline Stoker (sister of Bram) and Mina Holmes (niece of Sherlock) return in the fourth volume of the steampunk adventure series set in an alternate Victorian London.

Ever since the debacle of the Chess Queen Enigma, Mina Holmes and Evaline Stoker have laid low, trying to settle back into their quiet lives as young ladies of London. But the Holmesian deductive abilities won't remain dormant for long, and when Mina receives a strange package from a winged, midnight visitor, she is catapulted into a new, mysterious adventure: the search for The Carnelian Crow.

Meanwhile, Evaline has received some very disturbing news--news that will change her life forever. Along with that unpleasant knowledge is the strange disappearance of her nemesis, the disreputable pickpocket Pix.

When it becomes clear the arch-villainess the Ankh has made her next move, it will take all of Mina's Holmesian ingenuity and Evaline's courage and determination to stop the criminal from executing her boldest and most dangerous plan yet!

A sexy blacksmith.
A CEO turned innkeeper.
A haunted speakeasy.
And a desperate killer...
Welcome to Wicks Hollow: a cozy town near Lake Michigan filled with quaint houses, eccentric residents, and more than its share of ghosts, murders, and sexy romance.

Leslie Nakano needs to make a major life change—getting away from the dog-eat-dog corporate world, as well as getting past a personal loss—so she buys a large turn-of-the-century mansion in Wicks Hollow, with plans to renovate it and turn it into an inn.

She doesn’t care about the rumors that it’s haunted—she just wants a new life.

But she sure wouldn’t mind finding the missing gems that belonged to Red Eye Sal, a bootlegger who lived in the house during Prohibition.

Blacksmith Declan Zyler, who has more work than he can handle working on historical restorations, has suddenly acquired a fifteen-year-old daughter he never knew he had. This turns his life upside-down when he decides to take on the role of single father.

When Leslie hires Declan to restore the iron staircase at her inn, neither of them realize they are disturbing a spirit from days gone by…a ghost who is determined to see justice served. Until they determine how to put that ghost to rest, neither Leslie nor Declan will be able to move on with their lives.

Luego de una nefasta experiencia en Roma, de la cual casi no logra escapar, Victoria Gardella regresa a Londres en busca de descanso. Pero allí no todo es lo que parece y pronto descubre que nuevos peligros acechan la ciudad. Esta vez los vampiros son tan poderosos que ni siquiera la luz del día logra detenerlos…

Su regreso a casa se ve comprometido por los ataques de los vampiros diurnos que transitan las calles de Londres a plena luz. No sólo han logrado exponerse al sol sin temor de ser abrasados por sus rayos sino que también han desarrollado la habilidad de pasar desapercibidos ante la bella cazadora. Por mucho que Victoria intenta utilizar sus poderes de Venator, los vampiros diurnos consiguen burlarla una y otra vez, al mismo tiempo que la ponen en evidencia delante de las autoridades como la posible sospechosa de los homicidios ocurridos.

Mientras tanto, su corazón continúa debatiéndose entre el enigmático Sebastián Vioget y el distante Max Pesaro. Como si esto fuera poco, un golpe del destino la obligará a transitar las sendas de un camino tortuoso al ser atacada por un vampiro y obligada a beber su sangre. En este libro, la batalla entre el bien y el mal es más evidente que en los anteriores, ya que la misma heroína deberá enfrentar la disyuntiva en carne propia. Decidirá obedecer sus instintos casi primitivos y ansias de pelea generados por el envenenamiento de su sangre, o podrá calmar su ser, obligándolo a retomar sus pasos y volver a la luz…
