Hunting Vampires With Grandma

Sometimes following your dreams isn’t all it’s cracked up to be…. When I decided I’d stop at nothing to become a Vampire Hunter, even though my older sister and her teammates knew I wasn’t ready, I got myself into trouble—a whole lot of trouble. Now, I’ll never be exactly what I wanted to be—and I’ll never be the same as I was before either. There’s a dangerous Vampire on the loose, and I know I’m the only one who can stop him from continuing to prey on the innocent. But since I’ve already broken my sister’s trust, how can I prove to her that I’m more than just her little sister? I’m a weapon. We both know there’s no one else in the world like me, but I’ll have to show her I can follow her orders before she’ll let me move forward with my plan. And that’s a problem. Because we also both know following directions is no longer my strong suit. Will I be able to stick to my training long enough to demonstrate my value or will the Vampire continue his destruction? My name is Cassidy Findley, and this is my life as a teenage Vampire Hunter.

For centuries the witches in the city of Fairlight, and the vampire covens have struggled for power, even though for over two hundred years they supposedly have come to a workable truce. At the age of twenty Velvet Washington, a witch of superior skills, decides the vampires are breaking the spirit of the truce by turning victims in order to increase their numbers. Any witch, she believes, knows the power in numbers. Unfortunately, the Council doesn’t care and insists she mind her own business and stop the night stalking in graveyards. However, Velvet thinks it is her duty to halt the monthly risings of the undead. Wilder, a master vampire and his sired partner Jerome, trail her for a few months trying to figure her out. She is a witch that seems as driven as a slayer. Slayers, who just happen not to reside in Fairlight anymore. Intrigued by her skills and commitment Wilder approaches her. . Wilder has not lost any of his to her sword, so he can be generous enough to warn her to cease at once because the Coven as a whole, though reluctant to risk incident with the council, will get around to stopping her, and to Velvet the only way a vampire can make her stop anything is to kill her. Wilder finds her attitude ridiculous and tells her the folly of her single minded prejudice and extreme arrogance. He tries to convey she is short sighted in what she can accomplish with her talents, and what she could do for Fairlight as a whole community, rather than just for witches. Velvet ignores her grandmother’s advice and warnings not to trust a vampire, especially one she finds so attractive in the moonlight.

Reading other people's minds can be messy sometimes... especially if those other people happen to be vampires. You'd think becoming a full-fledged member of LIGHTS, a secret agency whose purpose is to hunt and destroy vampires, would make me happy. But when one hunt goes terribly wrong, I find myself in the middle of an identity criss. Am I a hunter--or am I a vampire? I need to get myself together because a vampire queen has taken my cousin prisoner, and I"m the only who can get him back. But only if I figure out who I am before it's too late. I'm Cassidy Findley, and I'm a vampire hunter--I think.

Marquis Verenis--he's a powerful Noble...he's in possession of antimatter technology...and he's three hundred million dalas in debt to Old El, the lender of last resort out on the Frontier! The vampire lord even put up his castle as collateral--but not a single collection agent dispatched by El has returned, so it's time to call in an outside consultant, named D! But the mooching Marquis isn't the only one who owes the financier big time and would rather kill Old El than pay up--and those debtors too mean deadly trouble ahead for D...even if they are only human!

There are some mistakes in life you can never recover from…. Have you ever wanted something so badly, you’d do almost anything to get it? That’s how I feel about becoming a Vampire Hunter. It’s in my blood. And even though I’m technically not old enough to go through the transformation process, I am ready to fulfill my destiny—one way or another. Unfortunately, going behind my sister and her established team of Vampire Hunters’ backs and inserting myself into a dangerous situation doesn’t go as planned, and before I know it, I’m no longer a would-be hunter; I’m the prey. Now, all I can do is hope that my sister and her teammates can get to me in time or else my career as a Vampire Hunter will be over before it’s even started. And so will my life. My name is Cassidy Findley, and I’m about to find out the hard way how NOT to be a Vampire Hunter.

One new-to-love vampire hunter. Several supernatural hotties who want to do more than train her. But with the world against her, can she find love? I'm V. I was raised to be a kick-butt huntress of evil. I trained and honed my craft, putting the dead in undead, even when it was a cycle of just trying really hard not to die. My substitute high school teacher, who looks like a gorgeous bad boy who’ll steal your car and snag your girl, hasn’t come to lecture students. He’s a Hunter like me. Worse, he drops a great big life bomb and says he’s the only one who can help me go after the very same people who made us Hunters, the Organization. If that weren’t enough, my werewolf boyfriend—who I’m not allowed to date—and my brand-new uber sexy mentor (teacher?) can’t seem to get along. Don’t get me started on the sexy Brit or the pack of wolves my Shifter boyfriend failed to mention, all while revenge and secrets unravel in this shiz-storm I call my life. With a target on my back and a super powerful Dark Fae out to assassinate me, it’s any wonder how a girl manages to date anyone, let alone several. Lucky me, right?
