1. OBSIDIAN BUTTERFLY by Laurell K. Hamilton
'I was covered in blood, but it wasn't mine, so it was okay.'
Edward is a hit man. He specialises in monsters. Vampires, shape-shifters, anything and everything. There are people like me, Anita Blake, who do it legally, but Edward doesn't sweat the legalities or, hell, the ethics. He is an equal opportunity killer.
I may be one of the few friends that Edward has, but it's like being friends with a tame leopard. It may curl on the foot of your bed and let you pet its head, but it can still eat your throat out...

3. HOTTER AFTER MIDNIGHT by Cynthia Eden
A Seductive Nighttime World. . .
Dr. Emily
Drake's psychotherapy patients tend to be a little unusual. Instead of
midlife crises and mother fixations, Emily treats vampires with blood
phobias and sex-demons looking for meaningful relationships. But healing
these powerful beings requires an important rule: Never trust a
shifter. Especially not one like Detective Colin Gyth, whose
gold-flecked eyes and predatory air make Emily realize how much she
longs to lose control. . .
Colin
can't believe the doctor he has to work with on the Night Butcher
murder case is the one person who could expose his true identity as a
wolf shifter. Smart and sexy, Emily brings out the alpha male in Colin,
unleashing a wild desire that takes them both over the edge. . .. But in
the shadows, the Night Butcher waits, eager to spill Emily's blood and
taste her terror. And he'll use any means to destroy her, including the
one person she has grown to trust. . .

telepathic distress call to the world's most infamous vampire...Vlad
Tepesh inspired the greatest vampire legend of all - but whatever you

6. DUST OF MY WINGS by Carrie Ann Ryan
Humans aren’t as alone as they choose to believe. Every human possesses a
trait of supernatural that lays dormant within their genetic make-up.
Centuries of diluting and breeding have allowed humans to think they are
alone and untouched by magic. But what happens when something changes?
Neat freak lab tech, Lily Banner lives her life as any ordinary human.
She’s dedicated to her work and loves to hang out with her friends at
Dante’s Circle, their local bar. When she discovers a strange blue dust
at work she meets a handsome stranger holding secrets – and maybe her
heart. But after a close call with a thunderstorm, she may not be as
ordinary as she thinks.
Shade Griffin is a warrior angel sent to Earth
to protect the supernaturals’ secrets. One problem, he can’t stop
leaving dust in odd places around town. Now he has to find every ounce
of his dust and keep the presence of the supernatural a secret. But
after a close encounter with a sexy lab tech and a lightning quick
connection, his millennia old loyalties may shift and he could lose more
than just his wings in the chaos.
7. VAMPIRE VACATION by C.J.Ellisson
Meet Vivian. She's a 580-year-old vampire who exudes sex, has a
talent for drama, and is passionate about two things: her human husband,
Rafe, and their resort for the undead. Her ability to project physical
illusions has created the perfect vacation spot -- a dark, isolated
Alaskan hideaway where visitors can have their wildest fantasies come
true.
Vivian knows the best performance requires perfect timing, but the powerful vamp is put to the test when she discovers a corpse in a locked guestroom minutes before the next arrivals. Always cool-headed, Rafe hides the body, convinced he and Vivian can find the culprit without disturbing their guests.
Juggling the increasingly outrageous demands of their customers while tracking a killer isn't easy. Will their poking and prodding give them the answers they need, or will it uncover secrets Vivian would kill to protect?
8. VEILED EYES BY C.L.Bevil
A vivid waking dream of giant cypress trees dripping with Spanish moss
haunts Anna St. Thais. The trees sit on a black lake that resembles a
dark Louisiana bayou with an evocative aura. The dream includes the
presence of a man who seems to know Anna all too well and a group of
people with strange telepathic powers, sometimes called veiled eyes.
An
orphan from Texas, she is on her way east to help out a friend when she
encounters two terrifying things. Psychically, she begins to see and
hear things through the eyes of an unknown individual, a man who knows
more about her than she ever would have imagined.
The second thing is
that she has been kidnapped by a sociopathic trucker intent on making
her his latest victim. When she is rescued by Gabriel Bergeron, a member
of the elusive Lake People in Northwestern Louisiana, Anna doesn’t
realize that he is her psychic counterpart and she has been inexplicably
pulled to the area. She shares their strange colored gold eyes and
their distinctive mental powers.
They are a reclusive lot and know that
Anna is one of them, but has been isolated by unknown circumstances. She
is drawn into their incomparable world, something between that of the
Creoles and Cajuns, and much in addition to those.
There Anna finds a
romantic link with Gabriel and the spine-tingling fear of not knowing
who to trust. Her return has disturbed the inner workings of the group
and threatens to expose secrets long concealed in the murky Louisiana
bayous. There are secrets to be divulged about her past and why she was
spirited away as an infant. Anna isn’t safe until she discovers the
answers she so desperately requires.
9.HOW TO MARRY A MILLIONAIRE VAMPIRE by Kerrelyn Sparks
So what if he's a bit older and usually regards a human female as
dinner, not a dinner date? Yes, Roman Draganesti is a vampire, but a
vampire who lost one of his fangs sinking his teeth into something he
shouldn't have. Now he has one night to find a dentist before his
natural healing abilities close the wound, leaving him a lop–sided eater
for all eternity.
Things aren't going well for Shanna Whelan
either...After witnessing a gruesome murder by the Russian mafia, she's
next on their hit list. And her career as a dentist appears to be on a
downward spiral because she's afraid of blood.

from an assassination attempt, she wonders if she's found the one man
who can keep her alive. Though the attraction between them is immediate
and hot, can Shanna conquer her fear of blood to fix Roman's fang? And
if she does, what will prevent Roman from using his fangs on her...
Blind dates can be bad, but Sarah Dearly's date is a true contender for
worst ever. His neck nibbling didn't just leave a bruise; it turns her
into a vampire -- and the newest target for a pack of zealot vampire
hunters.
With her date now their latest victim, Sarah runs for her
immortal life -- straight into Thierry de Bennicoeur, a master vampire
who is just a wee bit suicidal.
Thierry can't resist a damsel in
distress and agrees to teach Sarah how to live the vampire life if
she'll help him end his own. But as it turns out, Sarah may be his best
reason for living.
