Rising Blood

She doesn't need a partner. She doesn't need him. She sure as hell doesn't need the problems he brings to her already complicated life.

Vampire hunter, Harper Yovanoff, is not happy. Ever since her former partner vanished, she'd been content to work alone. Unfortunately, her boss doesn't feel the same way. Harper's been assigned a new partner—a new partner who's an utter pain in her ass. Elliot Zielin is panty-meltingly gorgeous, but he's also reckless, not to mention, insufferably arrogant. If he's not careful, the vampires will be the least of his worries.

Elliot knows he should play nice with his new partner, but he can't resist poking the bear—the tiny, angry bear who's so freaking beautiful, she makes him ache for things he shouldn't want. Despite the fact that Harper has a stake with his name on it, he keeps pushing.

When a powerful vampire begins actively stalking and turning hunters, Harper and Elliot are forced to work more closely together than ever in an effort to save their own. With tempers and adrenaline high, letting off a little steam goes way too far, and they both end up in a place they never expected. The threat against them increases and fighting their growing feelings for one another becomes impossible. But if they can't stop the sire hell-bent on their destruction, all the love in the world won't save them from becoming the very thing they hunt.
