This steamy romance combines ballet with vampires, adding a dash of Roman gladiator history into the mix. "Blood for dancing, Cece. Blood for pain. Your choice." In Anghor Manor, there is always a choice. When ex-ballet dancer Celine sees something she shouldn't in the alleyway outside of Vienna's hottest nightclub, Fluxx, owned and frequented by vampires, she is offered three choices. Each choice is as frightening as the next. Unable to make up her mind, Cece bides her time. She wrestles with memories of her old life, a life she was forced to abandon when a devastating injury ended her ballet career. Now she must pick up the broken pieces and move on, but moving on offers its own challenges, especially when Caius, lord of Anghor Manor, offers her something more precious than gold. PREVIEW ONLY. AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE ON AMAZON AND BOOKSTORES. LINK TO PURCHASE IN PROFILE BIO.

It never bodes well when a prince of Asgard takes an interest in a mortal. Not for Aila. Not when that god is Loki, the infamous father of monsters. To love such a god is as improvident as it is dire. Curse Of Blood: Gods & Monsters is a dark, romantic tale spanning three parts, and weaves together a tapestry of ancient myths and viking lore. It tells the story of Aila, a woman who must overcome the trammels of loss and the vicissitudes of love to emerge as a leader of men; and the mother of werewolves. This is the prequel to Lair of Beasts. Read in any order. Cover designed by @jeaninecroft Copyright © 2016 by Jeanine Croft
