Today bestselling
author Virna DePaul’s
thrilling series of paranormal romances invites readers into a seductive and
dangerous world where vampires secretly exist among the general population,
while the FBI tries to keep the Rogues among them from preying on humans—for
killing, for turning, for pleasure.
Ex-soldier Barrett Miles had no idea that vampires were
real—until Belladonna recruits her to serve as a covert agent and infiltrate a
murderous sex ring run by the most depraved of immortals, those who feed on the
purity and blood of innocents. Their latest victim: a young girl whom Barrett
promised to protect. She will be sold—unless Barrett can find her first. Forced
to team up with her former lover, Nick Maltese, an undercover sniper, Barrett
is caught between fulfilling her personal mission and shielding her heart from
the man who betrayed her.
Nick’s hunting a new breed of vampires and harboring a
terrible secret when Barrett finds him. Soon a seething underworld of strange
desires threatens to engulf them all. Can he save the girl and reclaim
Barrett’s heart? Nick knows he has only one chance to prove himself to her as
the hunt begins—and their love forces them to embrace the darkest places in
their souls.
Excerpt
There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you.”
A huge rush made her heart hammer because she knew he was
speaking the truth. It hit her then. This was a man she could trust. She’d
known she could trust him with Jane. Hell, with her life. Why couldn’t she
trust him with her heart? With everything he’d just told her, including the
fact that her friends might be—that they might be—
She closed her eyes, refusing to think that way.
The point was, life was crazy. To survive it, she had to
grasp on to whatever she could regardless of the risk. That meant when she
found a man who made her body sing when he touched her and her heart jump with joy
just at the sound of his voice, she should grab him and hold tight rather than
letting fear drive her away. “Now, I want you—” he started.
She threw herself at him, causing him to stumble slightly
before he caught her. Wrapping her arms around him, she kissed him with a loud
smack and hugged him firmly. “Thank you, Nick. Thank you for always being there
for me.” The strong hands that encompassed her upper arms held her fast for an
unbearable moment. Then his fin¬gers stroked her skin. Barrett wanted to melt.
His head bent to hers, his gaze serious and intense.
There were no other words. Just a sensation of near¬ness
that blew her mind. She swayed in his gentle grip, taking a half step forward
to balance herself. The move brought her close to his thighs. Nick drew her
even closer. His belt buckle—army issue, flat metal, pressed against her
middle, bare under the loose top. Everything that rounded out his worn zipper
said hello and got hard as she leaned into him.
The denim held the heat. She kicked off her slippers and
stood on tiptoe to make the most of that fine erec¬tion. Nick pulled her
against his chest, looking into her eyes one more time, sweeping her hair back
over her shoulders, sliding a hand around the curve of her waist. Shamelessly,
Barrett rubbed her breasts against him, her nipples instantly taut with the
sensual friction.
Then he kissed her.

Belladonna Agency Book
1
Welcome to a mesmerizing world where vampires
hide among humans. This centuries-old species has its own rules, code of
conduct, and taboos. Only the FBI knows that vampires exist—and although the
Bureau agrees to keep their secret, it also plots to give humans the upper
hand.
Turning mortals into vampires is
forbidden.
But there are creatures who refuse to play by
the rules.
Ever since he was turned, FBI special agent Ty Duncan has
had one mission: bring rogue vampires to justice. As a recruiter for
Belladonna, a shadow agency formed to keep vampires in check, Ty must tap Ana
Martin, a troubled ex–gang member and one of the few mortals who
can infiltrate places that his kind and the law cannot. From their first
encounter, Ty fights a hunger to make Ana his own.
When Ty claims to have information about Ana’s missing
sister, Ana has no choice but to trust this captivating stranger who awakens
her deepest desires. But as she and Ty climb the heights of pleasure and
passion, an enemy is conspiring to destroy them both.
Can Ana help Ty find his humanity in a love that could heal
them both, or will their passion lead them into a darkness impossible to
escape?
