Riley Jenson is totally exhausted; working for the
Directoriate is a job she has finally embraced and they are
completely taking advantage of her vampire and werewolf
capabilities. As a vampire, she has night vision,
incredible strength and speed; as a werewolf she has an
uncanny sense of smell along with the ability to shape-
shift into a wolf. She also has a few talents that don't
fall under those categories, such as seeing souls of the
dead and shifting into a bird, of all things. Riley is very
thankful she doesn't require blood to survive like most
vampires, and because of her inner wolf, she can walk under
the sun during the daylight hours. This makes her
indispensable; well that and the other powers she continues
to develop due to the drug she was given while she was a
prisoner at a lab.
Riley's current case is shaking up humans and vampires
alike. Powerful vampires are being decapitated without a
fight, which is odd since they can usually sense danger
immediately. Unfortunately, this case is putting her into
direct contact with her hated soul mate, Kye, who claims to
be working on a missing-person case parallel to her own
assignment. Kye is a killer. Riley can't stand who he is --
a man/wolf who must control everything, including her. His
goal is to prove he can have her heart and soul by calling
to her wolf, regardless of her own desires. Riley can only
follow her own instincts, but she is torn because her heart
solely belongs to Quinn, her vampire lover. She is in
turmoil over both her professional and personal lives,
which seem to be deeply connected. Which one will win? Her
heart or her soul?
The Riley Jensen Guardian series ROCKS! Riley is one bad-
ass heroine with a heart of gold. Keri Arthur never
disappoints and always leaves me eagerly anticipating the
next book. A classic, fabulous read!
Part vampire, part
werewolf, Riley Jenson knows what can happen when vamps
don’t play well with others. But she’s never seen anything
like this: a series of brutal murders surrounding the
latest hot spot for vampire-human hookups—and the victims
aren’t just killed, they’re beheaded. Now Riley is
launching into action, toying with a seductive—and highly
suspicious—club owner, and finding herself in the middle
of another mystery: women being killed one by one, without
a trace of violence.
For Riley, solving multiple cases—in a
world going mad with human and vampire passions—would have
been tough enough. Instead she has two jealous lovers on
her hands: Kye Murphy, the amber-eyed werewolf who makes
Riley’s wolf blood howl—and Quinn, the cool, elegant vamp
who has over a thousand years’ experience at fulfilling
women’s desires. While she’s busy juggling these two sexy
beasts, Riley’s detective work takes a stunningly violent
turn. Finding a murderer is now a matter of life and
death. Especially since the killer has long since found
her . . .
