Consequences

Owned by the Vampire

2023

Daniel was part ogre and part human, way back in the sixth century. Now he’s a nearly seven-foot-tall genius vampire who consults for NASA. Since he lives an hour and a half from his coterie, he maintains his own flock, and he purchases slaves through the Concilio, rather than dealing with the hassle of enticing shapeshifters to voluntarily provide his sustenance. He has needs few would volunteer to slake. Mariah is a sexy gazelle shifter, tall and lithe. She grew up in flyover country, and despite the Concilio’s rules against shapeshifters playing organized sports with humans, she played high-school basketball in her small town without getting caught. However, a college scout turned her in, and now she’s owned by the Concilio, trained as a pleasure slave. Daniel hitches a ride to Italy with a friend to attend an auction, and he returns home with a statuesque gazelle who was aiming for an applied physics degree on a basketball scholarship. She’s intelligent enough she doesn’t annoy him simply by opening her mouth, and sturdy enough to withstand the things he plans to do to her. It isn’t the ogre part of Daniel’s personality that’s needed toning down over the centuries, but his inner Viking. Razing and pillaging, indeed.

Wicked Beauty

Wicked Inked duet, Book 1

2023

Gavin has perfected the art of being terrifying. His value to Zander lies in his being the junkyard dog—the one who doesn’t merely kill their enemies, but does so in a spectacular fashion. Love isn’t for people like him. Even if he could somehow manage to feel the emotion, it wouldn’t be for him.

Inked Beauty

Wicked Inked duet: Book 2

2023

Lauren wants to put down roots of her own. Homewood will always be home, but it’s time she found her own place in this world. She thought Branson was the perfect opportunity, with a fantastic job, a bedroom just down the hall from Nick, and a quick drive to see Gavin, but everything’s falling apart, and there’s more trouble on the horizon. Nick’s a cat, and they never react well when their feelings are hurt. Gavin’s a new Master Vampire, and no one’s challenged his status yet, but that’s bound to change soon. And just how much fire is Lauren playing with, trying to have a relationship with two alpha males at the same time? Inked Beauty is book two of the Wicked Inked duet, and should be read after Wicked Beauty.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Candace Blevins writes urban fantasy, paranormal romance, epic fantasy contemporary BDSM romance, and two kick-ass motorcycle club series. She’s published more than fifty books. Candace lives with her husband of twenty-four years and their two teenaged daughters. The family’s beloved, goofy, retired racing greyhounds are usually at her side as she writes, quietly keeping her company. Or sometimes not so quietly. Her urban fantasy series, Only Human, gives us a world where weredragons, werewolves, werelions, three different species of vampires, and a variety of other mythological beings exist. Candace's various paranormal romance series are all sister series to the Only Human series, and give some secondary characters their happily ever after. Her Dark(ish) Faerie Tale series gives us a close-up and personal look at Queen Mab, and her Dark Underbelly series is, as you’d expect, dark and (if you’re a little twisted) oh-so-yummy. Her contemporary Safeword series gives us characters who happen to have some extreme kinks. Relationships can be difficult enough without throwing power exchange into the mix, and her books show characters who care enough about each other to fight to make the relationship work. Each couple in the Safeword series gives the reader a different take on the lifestyle. You can visit Candace on the web at candaceblevins.com.
