Paranormal | Romance Paranormal | Suspense

Once again, the power-hungry vampire Samos is creating havoc by joining forces with reavers, soul-stealing creatures that need a human host to survive. But never fear, Jaz Parks, CIA assassin, and her crew are hot on the trail when a science project goes missing and Samos is the main suspect. This advanced biotechnology is a type of body armor that's still in the creative stage, so it's full capabilities are unknown, which can be very dangerous in the wrong hands. While Vayl and Jaz work this highly sensitive case as novelty acts at a festival, an already growing bond becomes stronger and more complicated. With the newbie, Cole, added to the mix, jealous sparks begin to fly, yet the sexual tension between the three of them is set aside for the sake of the mission. Can they finally end this once and for all? Can they stop Samos from creating an army and destroying the world? This novel is choppy and hard to follow for someone who did not read the first novel, ONCE BITTEN, TWICE SHY. I firmly believe you must read the first book in the Jaz Parks series to fully understand what the author is trying to accomplish. Other than that, the quirky sense of humor and action-packed pages make ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST a worthwhile read.

SUMMARY

Jaz Parks has enough trouble in her personal life. What she doesn't need is more trouble with her vampire boss and another mission. This time she has to retrieve a vital piece of biotechnology by killing the maniac who stole it: an ancient Chinese vamp. Their cover in this mission: professional entertainers at the Corpus Christi's Winter Festival. The crew's all here: a psychic, a techno-wizard, a singing vampire, a juggling PI, and Jaz. Holy crap in a bottomless well, Jaz is going to bellydance. It's definitely, probably, quite possibly going to be the end of the world as we know it.
