Five deadly love stories. 

And one dark saga.  

This is August, New York, where the chaotic world of the supernatural will collide with unsuspecting, vulnerable humans.

Trouble


Notorious criminal Mickey McKennan is everything Nora Evers shouldn’t want. He’s power and sex in a suit with a rogue smile, and when they meet, her world tilts as she falls in lust—until that world halts when tragedy strikes. Nora’s life quickly goes from bad to worse, and she finds Mickey at every turn. Although his deadly secrets ensure that trouble follows him, she is drawn to him more and more. But, when her past haunts her present, Nora’s life is threatened, and she is unsure of who she can count on to help her survive.

Beautiful


Everyone has a price, and thanks to the captivating Simon Handover and his proposition, Penny Ames has discovered hers. She will just need to make it through one month with him before she can flee and never look back. But, with his Clark Kent good looks and Superman swagger, Simon is more of a threat to Penny than she realizes. While fighting not to lose her heart, she stumbles into a world filled with guns, gangs, and…vampires, and soon, she finds herself also fighting for her life.

Collateral


When Sosie Savage is taken hostage by the Vampire Mafia due to her father’s mistake, the only thing on her mind is survival—until her focus begins to shift as her captors, the D’Avignon brothers, vie for her attention. Powerful yet antagonistic, J.M. and Sebastien fascinate her. Where J.M. is destructive and dangerous, Sebastien acts as the savior with his kindness. With her feelings clouding her mind, Sosie struggles to set things right in the tangled web her father weaved. But, after the D’Avignon family receives threats from rival vampires while enduring run-ins with the authorities, she begins to question her allegiance to her own family and the life that she once knew.

Vengeful


Kidnapped and tortured with no end in sight, Beau D’Avignon is certain death is imminent. That is, until Francesca Slight intervenes. Sheltered daughter of the D’Avignon’s sworn enemy, she is now also the owner of Beau’s heart. With the animosity between the leading vampire families, their newfound love is not likely to survive, especially when the escalating war threatens all their lives.

Frustrated with her father’s lack of action in the search for her missing family, Bellamy D’Avignon is determined to take the reins, but along the way, she crosses paths with someone from the opposite side of the law. He’s literally tall, dark, and handsome, and their connection is immediate and undeniable. But, when a life-altering threat hits and emotions take over, Bellamy makes a decision that will change their lives forever.

“Are you ready to tell me?” I ask.

“No,” he whispers.

I look down and sigh. “I don’t know how many more times I
can say I’m sorry before you believe me. But if you want to punish me for his
death…”

I bolt from the car and make my way up to my apartment
without a single glance over my shoulder. The key is in the door when I feel
him approach. I still refuse to turn around, but he doesn’t give me much
choice. Mickey curves an arm around my waist and spins me so that my back is
now pinned to the door. His face is mere inches away from mine, and I can feel
the hard lines of his body pressing against me. He’s so gorgeous, it hurts to
look. But it hurts even more to look away.

Once again, I’ve forgotten how to breathe. But he reminds
me when he floats his cheek against mine, causing my breath to hitch.

“I’m not trying to punish you,” he says, whispering the
words against my neck. “I’m trying to protect you.”

“Whatever it is you think I can’t handle, I can,” I
whisper back. “I’m stronger than I look.”

He sighs and looks at me like I’m stating the obvious.
“Babe, sounds to me like you’ve had to be too strong for too long. When are you
going to let someone else take care of you?”

My nose stings from the urge to cry, and I’m struggling
to maintain eye contact. This isn’t me. I’m the girl who deals with shit and
then keeps it moving, not the one who goes all weak-kneed and falls to pieces.

Except I am falling.

And fast.

“There is no one. Remember?” The quiver in my voice is a
dead giveaway, but I keep talking, and he keeps listening. “Besides, we still don’t
know who those guys were, and—”

So much for everything I’m not.

His lips capture mine, and my knees do go weak. I can
feel his arm tightening as he holds me steady with one hand while his other
hand cups the side of my face.

His lips brush back and forth against mine, learning
their feel. Meanwhile, his hand grips my hip, and his other hand slides back
from my cheek to my hair, anchoring into my long brunette locks. I can feel
Mickey stiffening against me as the tip of his tongue demands entrance.

There’s no hesitation. I open for him.

A needy whimper works its way up my throat as his tongue
glides against mine. My hands curl into tight fists, the lapels of his
expensive suit jacket caught between my fingers. I feel myself getting wet,
cream dampening my panties, as this primal ache spirals up from my core.
Mickey’s groaning deliciously naughty sounds into my mouth, and I’m clutching
at him like I never want this to end.

Because I don’t.

It feels like every kiss from my past has been leading up
to this moment. They were all just practice, and this…this is real. I’ve never
felt anything like it before, and deep down inside, I know that I never will.

Not with anyone but Mickey.

But it’s over before I know it. He’s pressing his lips
against mine in a gentle finale, and I know that the fireworks display is
coming to a close. His name spills out of my mouth in a pleading moan, and he
smiles and then finishes with a chaste kiss.

“Babe, you’re gonna get us both into trouble.”

I breathe a quiet laugh. “Yeah?”

“Yeah. Now, wipe that sexy smile off your face before you
start something you can’t finish.”

I chuckle, despite my best efforts for a more serious
expression. Then, a sultry fire flashes in his eyes, and I stop laughing.

“Let’s go,” he says.

“Go where?”

“Inside.”

“Inside where?”

“Babe, we really gonna do this?”

“I never invited you in.”

“Relax. If I wanted something to happen, those gorgeous
legs of yours would be wrapped around my waist, and you’d be screaming my name
right now. My cock would be buried so deep inside you, hitting places you never
even knew existed, and I swear, you’d never want to hop off. But you’re not
ready for that, and I respect it. You’re also not ready to spend the night at
my place, so I’m going to crash here.”

My skin is flushed, my breathing is strained, and for the
first time in my life, I mentally check my body for signs of a heart attack.

Nothing.

A slow and shaky breath escapes my lips as my brain tries
to work out a response. I know I’m going to think of a really great comeback
hours from now, but the best I can manage on the spot is, “Well, you just know
everything, don’t you?”

He smirks. “Not everything. Just that you want me.”

I gasp, not out of offense but out of embarrassment over
his accuracy.

“And, before you say anything else, I want you, too. But,
tonight, we sleep. Just sleep,” he says.



I unlock the door while offering up a
deceptively cool tsk. “Like I said, nice.”

The Vampire Mafia (The Complete Series) by M.A. Wilder

The Vampire Mafia (The Complete Series) by M.A. Wilder:

If you celebrated, I hope you had an awesome Christmas! I know I did! To top things off, TVM got another ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review!!!


“…You think living among the Mafia is dangerous, clannish or that a war between the most powerful families results in horse heads in beds, black and white movies, machine guns and wise guys? Clearly you haven’t heard of the Vampire Mafia where the war between two controlling families in August, New York makes the human Mafia look like a game of Candyland…”
