FIRST IN A NEW SERIES FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE DARK ONES NOVELS!

Outcast due to their ability to manipulate time, shunned by the mortal and immortal worlds alike, a Travellers life is anything but easy.

Peter Faa is a member of the Watch tracking down a murderer, and unfortunately, all clues seem to point toward his own estranged family of Travellers. Any of his cousins could be guilty, but which one? Theyre all experts in the art of stealing time...

After surviving a lightning strike, Kiya Mortenson is determined to get just one thing in her life right. And if that means taking a job as nanny to five pugs on a campsite in the Oregon wilderness, then so be it. It doesnt hurt that the job comes with some spectacular male eye candy, including her new bosss gorgeous grandson. If only she didnt keep having this strange sense of deja vu...

When Peter discovers his own family is stealing time from Kiya, all bets are off. While she may drive him crazy at times, its clear that its not just lightning thats creating some serious sparks between them. And hes not going to let secrets, lies, or a devious murderer keep Kiya from where she belongs: at his side.

Review

Praise for the Novels of Katie MacAlister

“A humorous take on the dark and demonic.”—USA Today’s Happy Ever After

“Had me laughing out loud…wondrous.”—Fresh Fiction

“Her sense of humor really can’t be beaten.”—Errant Dreams Reviews

Synopsis

Has this immortal finally met her match?

Rogue hunter Drina Argenis (from the Spanish side of the Argeneau family) has been many things in her years as an immortal, but bodyguard/babysitter to a teenage vampire is something new. There's an incentive, however: the other vampsitter, Harper Stoyan, may be Drina's life mate.

Trouble is, having just lost a life mate, Harper is resigned to being alone. He's completely unprepared when sexy and unpredictable Drina bursts into his life to reignite his passions. Can Drina, with a little matchmaking help from their teen charge, tempt this reluctant vampire to take a chance?

Or will a dangerous, unseen renegade kill Drina and Harper's one chance at happiness?

Synopsis

“Lynsay Sands writes books that keep readers coming back for more.”
—Katie MacAlister, USA Today bestselling author of A Girls Guide to Vampires

Readers cant get enough of Lynsay Sands delightfully devilish novels featuring the Argeneau vampire family, and with The Reluctant Vampire, Sands soars to new heights on silken bat wings. The story of a sexy Rogue Hunter forced to babysit a new immortal with a handsome, brooding, millennia-old vampire still devastated over the loss of a lover, The Reluctant Vampire offers heart, humor, and sizzling sensuality in equal measure—hallmarks of the incomparable Lynsays bestselling paranormal fiction.


About the Author

She is the author of the Dark Ones Novels including A Tale of Two Vampires and Sex and the Single Vampire, Sparks Fly: A Novel of the Light Dragons, the Aisling Grey, Guardian novels, and many more.

Our Review [by Michelle L Olson & Jennifer Vayda]: Drina has been sent by Lucian and Marguerite to Port Henry to help protect Stephanie from a jerk that looks like he'll stop at nothing to get his grubby mits on her. Stephanie isn't the only vamp Drina is keeping her eye on though... After being picked up at the airport by tall, dark and rude (a.k.a Anders who not much for the talking), Drina meets Harper. After doing so, Drina notices that her appetite has returned and that she's getting peeks into Harper's thoughts--2 very important signs that indicate the two are lifemates. The problem is, Harper feels that he doesn't deserve another chance at happiness, and so Drina is thrown into 2 fights, and she's not willing to give up on either easily. Drina is warned ahead of time that she'll have a hard time convincing Harper that he's worthy and that he should give love a chance, and though he was a bit of a stick-in-the-mud in the beginning he wasn't as difficult as everyone kept saying. A lot of that had to do with the fact that little Stephanie just could keep her nosy little match making thoughts out of the mix, and pretty much tied herself into knots trying to help Drina get Harper to realize what everyone else already knew...That he and Drina are meant for each other. Together, Drina and Harper's relationship was "awww!" worthy, & there were several Sandstastic `naked and unconscious on the floor' moments. Outside of the relationship I found Harper average, loveable but baseline. Drina was a big plus though. She is a a self assured female who knows what she wants and isn't afraid to grab it. She's also smart, sexy, deep and a warrior in more than 1 way. While The Reluctant Vampire wasn't our favorite of the series thus far, it was still a thoroughly enjoyable read. Slightly more romance based than the previous Rogue Hunter installments, it's great for those that got hooked on the Argeneau series because of that, and fans and followers of the series will be happy to reunite with some of their favorite cast members. While it could be read alone we would strongly suggest that you not. All in all, LITERAL ADDICTION Paranormal Book Club gives The Reluctant Vampire 4 1/2 Skulls and would recommend it to Lynsay Sands and Argeneau fans, and Paranormal Romance readers who like wit in their read.
