  <default_description>&lt;p&gt; Half-vampire Catherine Crawfield is going after the undead with a vengeance, hoping that one of these deadbeats is her father; the one responsible for ruining her mother's life. Then she's captured by Bones, a vampire bounty hunter, and is forced into an unholy partnership. In exchange for finding her father, Cat agrees to train with the sexy night stalker until her battle reflexes are as sharp as his fangs. She's amazed she doesn't end up as his dinner; are there actually &lt;i&gt;good&lt;/i&gt; vampires? Pretty soon Bones will have her convinced that being half-dead doesn't have to be all bad. But before she can enjoy her new found status as kick-ass demon hunter, Cat and Bones are pursued by a group of killers. Now Cat will have to choose a side . . . and Bones is turning out to be as tempting as any man with a heartbeat. &lt;/p&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[Although the spine indicates this books as a paranormal romance, I feel that it was more a kick-butt, fiction, with a dose of romance.  The romance was NOT the main focus of the book, but a nice addition.  Very mild steam, not graphic.  However, the action scenes were graphic and gory.  <br/><br/>...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/63963391">more...</a>]]></body>
