The vampires have gone wild in this collection of never-before-published stories by best-selling authors Kerrelyn Sparks and Pamela Palmer, and two rising stars of paranormal romance! Contains V is for VampWoman by Kerrelyn Sparks, A Forever Love by Pamela Palmer, First Dates Are Hell by Amanda Arista, and Blood and Water by Kim Falconer.

With new supernatural creatures popping up at every turn (Ghouls? Really?), the city divided, and a long-lost cousin blazing into town, Violet Jordan has a lot on her mind. Oh, not to mention she’s supposed to be planning a wedding. Chaz has got to be the best, most patient (and probably clinically insane) fiancé around.

Violet Jordan thought the fairy tales her mother wove were just a way to get Violet to sleep, not a way to prepare her for the apocalypse she is the key to preventing. When she becomes a midnight snack for werepanther Spencer Haverty, his infectious bite invokes the first element of her destiny.

Merci Lanard made peace with her past and is ready for a simple future of murders and larceny while protecting the heart of her city. The Truth has other plans. When her boyfriend gets a distressed call from his old pack in Scotland, she cashes in her vacation days to help Rafe pick up the pieces of a life he left behind 18 years ago. A life that included a pack and a hot ex-girlfriend.

I thought life was going to get better. After four assassination attempts, I'm thinking not so much. Haverty's pack needs a new leader, and I've just about run out of reasons why I'm not right for the job.

As an investigative journalist, Merci Lanard has an uncanny knack for getting the truth out of people, a talent she uses to expose the real story behind her city’s most gruesome crimes. Until one night, when her partner, Ethan, is killed. Reeling from shock and grief, Merci vows to track down his murderer. As she starts digging, she meets Ethan’s estranged brother, Rafe, who agrees to work with Merci to find his brother’s killer. She soon discovers Ethan had been hiding things from her, mainly that he was a Shifter and had a whole life in a supernatural world she knew nothing about.

As an investigative journalist, Merci Lanard always gets her story but she doesn't always get the truth she wants. After discovering her mother passed along a demon lineage, Merci goes to her mother’s active retirement community to ask the tough questions about their blood, their power, and the truth about her father’s death. Instead of answers, she is gifted a dead body and a plea to find out what happened. Since Philly is peaceful and things aren’t exactly perfect with Rafe, she stays in New Haven to hunt down a killer and answers about herself.
