Jacob La Costa Rios is the head of the California governor’s security team; he’s also a vampire who wants the governor, a presidential hopeful, to support the peaceful integration of vampires into human society. Unfortunately, there are others who oppose Jake’s plan. Plus, Jake’s a little distracted by discovering his one true mate, the human female who can give him everything he’s always wanted: love, children, and continuing immortality. Francesca Marie Stewart is the governor’s “go-green” political consultant.
Although she’s been attracted to Jake from day one, her priority is her career and protecting her heart. But then Jake blatantly propositions her and Frankie, who hasn’t experienced sexual intimacy since she was seventeen-years-old, decides it’s time to take what she wants—within reason. No matter—once Jake makes love to Frankie, he knows reason will be the farthest thing from her mind. Then he just has to eliminate the person threatening her, reveal the fact he’s a vampire, and convince her that trusting him will bring both of them eternal happiness. About the book

Entomologist and adjunct professor Melina Parker has always excelled in two things: research followed by hands-on application. She prides herself on being a lady in public, but after she’s dumped yet again for being a lady in the bedroom, she’s ready to go back to school. Determined to find her inner sex diva, she enlists her childhood friend, Max Dalton, to tutor her after hours. Instead, she ends up in the wrong bed and gets a lesson in passion from Max’s twin brother, Rhys Dalton, a man Melina’s always secretly wanted but never thought she could have.
Despite craving the occasional adventure, Melina’s a small-town girl who wants roots and a family. Rhys and Max, on the other hand, are world-famous magicians who travel from one city to another, changing bed partners as easily as plane flights. While Rhys is outwardly the more reserved of the two, he has no shortage of tricks up his sleeve. Unable to believe his good luck, he gives Melina her first taste of multiples right out the gate. Come morning, she’s so mortified that she threw herself at Rhys that she blurts out the truth about her tutoring experiment. Not about to let her get away from him, Rhys convinces Melina that when it comes to sexual lessons, he’s more than man enough for the job. His biggest challenge is teaching Melina that when it comes to pleasure, the key to his own is hers. Can a woman who’s always longed for hearth and home find satisfaction with a man whose entire life has been about moving on to the next big thing? With her belief in absolutes and his skill with magic, it’s the perfect formula for love. About the book
Virna has written two erotic novellas under the pen name Ava Meyers. These books are very different than her other books--not for the faint of heart!
An erotic novella about a woman who wants to be bad and the bad boy cop who's good enough to give her what she needs... Respected journalist Claire Fullerton fantasizes about being a bad girl, but she also fears that revealing her dark fantasies will open her up to being hurt. When undercover cop Ty Williamson enters her life, the intense passion she feels for him scares her. Even though Claire is tempted to reveal the vixen inside her, she decides to play it safe and walk away, when walking away is the last thing she wants to do.
Months later, Claire is captured by a notorious gang of bikers, the Demon Guardians, the same gang Ty has infiltrated. Ty and his partner, Luke, have managed to earn the trust of the gang they are trying to shut down. When a senior gang member orders Ty to prove his loyalty by having sex with Claire, all he can think about is getting her to safety - until he sees the desire burning in her eyes. Reunited with the woman he's been unable to forget, Ty becomes determined to bind Claire to him. He'll prove he wants all of her, the good with the bad. In fact, the badder she is, the better they'll be - together. She’s ready to be touched again…
Jenna’s a former centerfold who’s a pro at deflecting male attention—with good reason. A painful past has her mistrustful of men and hell-bent on getting revenge against one in particular, even if it means having to first overcome her fear of physical intimacy.
He’ll touch her body but also her heart…
Noah’s an honorable cop used to making a woman feel safe, in bed and out. Although he’s been attracted to Jenna for weeks, he takes her seeming disinterest in stride. When she suddenly offers him a temporary place in her bed, Noah’s willing to give her everything she’s asking for.
Together, they’ll heal the past and build a future…
The last thing Noah wants is to walk away. In order to help Jenna truly overcome her fears, Noah will teach her that no fantasy is forbidden and that sometimes surrendering control can be the greatest victory of all.
Teaser:
“As much as I want him, I doubt a night in the sack with Noah James is going to change my opinion of men—”
She heard a male throat being cleared behind her and froze. Several seconds passed before she forced herself to turn around. The bedroom door had been slightly ajar and Noah had pushed it open. He stood in the open doorway, his dark eyes lasering into her. Humiliation punched through her, taking her breath away.
“Maybe not,” Noah drawled. “But why don’t we give it a try? I’m game if you are.”
