Paranormal Romance

Ava Sans is in her element as an AIR (Alien Investigations and Removal) agent-in-training with her best friend Noelle Tremaine. Kicking alien butt and taking names is what Ava is really good at, but she is ready to be a real agent. With Noelle at her side, Ava can do anything; they are the ultimate team. Ava and Noelle have been together since meeting as kids when the spoiled-rich princess Noelle needed a project and chose the street-tough and poor Ava for the job. The moment Ava explained what Noelle could do with the project idea, they became fast and longtime friends. Working together to gain their AIR agent credentials, Ava and Noelle are sent to capture and bring in the warrior vampire McKell. They have no doubts they will succeed.

Viktor McKell is not only a fugitive but a Vampire Warrior, once the leader of the Vampire army forced from his underground home to live among humans, leaving him to search for answers on how to walk among them during the daylight hours. AIR is doing their best to bring him to headquarters. McKell has already sent some AIR agents back with injuries, such as missing fingers. McKell's peace is interrupted as two women enter his camp and continue to argue over him. McKell knows his appeal as a Vampire is irresistible, but these two are obvious AIR agents and putting an end to the chatter is imperative. The moment McKell turns his attention to the stunning agents, he's taken with Ava Sans and her ability to stun him, literally and figuratively.

This is the 5th futuristic/paranormal book in the Alien Huntress series, which is purely a pleasure to read. The characters are incredible and the action is unbelievably awesome. A five-star read!

SUMMARY

New York Timesbestselling sensation Gena Showalter enthralls with a dark, tantalizing world of humans, otherworlders, powers beyond imagining, and a seductive vampire undone by his insatiable hunger for one woman. . . .Growing up poor on New Chicago's meanest streets, Ava Sans had two options: be the predator or be the prey. No contest. Now, working for Alien Investigation and Removal, she's been ordered to capture the biggest, baddest warrior of alla vampire too beautiful to be real, with the abilityto manipulate time. Once the leader of the entire vampire army, McKell has been deemed savage and unstable, spurned even by his own kind.To McKell, humans should be nothing more than sustenance. Yet the petite, golden-skinned Ava is a fascinating contradictionvicious yet witty, strong yet vulnerable, lethal but fiercely loyal. Against his better judgment, McKell craves that loyalty, and much more. When the chase leads to seduction, McKell and Ava will race to discover the truth about his past. But the answers will come at a price, even for a woman who thought she had nothing left to lose. . . .
