A lethal
sword.
A dangerous mission.
A seventeen-year-old girl finding her way in a world that is
nothing like she remembered.
When Maylin Kavanagh’s parents surrendered her to The
Program, they swore it was for her protection. After being confined in a small
underground cell for nearly two years, she is finally released.
But the world has changed.
Most of the populace has been wiped out by a deadly disease,
and the rules of society have regressed. But that’s not the worst of it. When
her group is kidnapped by a band of rogue vampires, Maylin realizes the decline
of the human population has brought other races to the forefront—races she never
knew existed. And now they’re all battling for survival and power.
In his father’s absence, Thane Warwick must lead his people.
He has two priorities: find his father and find humans who can supply blood to
his tribe. Immediately intrigued by his latest captive, he becomes interested
in Maylin for more than just her blood, but he soon discovers that he must make
a choice between his father and her.
Despite their attraction, Maylin and Thane each have an
agenda, and only one can be the victor.
VAMPIRE'S BANE is the first book in the VAMPIRE'S
BANE series. While it does end at a natural turning point in the heroine's
journey, it is an ongoing story, and not all questions will be answered. You
will need to read this series in order.

Teaser
from when Thane and Maylin first meet:
“I said ‘enough.’” The man strolled
calmly toward us. As he reached the soft glow of the fire, I realized that he
was tall, his body lean and muscular. He didn’t look nearly as old as I had
first guessed. His height and authoritative voice disguised his
youthfulness.
“Thane, surely you realize we’re hungry
and there are so few of them left,” my captor implored in a soft Irish
lilt.
“So you’ll solve our problem by killing
them?”
“I won’t,
but….”
Even though he still gripped my head, I
took advantage of their distraction and snaked my gun across my waist, pointing
the barrel between my side and left arm. I squeezed the trigger, sinking a
bullet into my captor’s
stomach.
He grunted and hissed air out between his
teeth, but his grip never lessened. How was it possible that gunshots seemed to
have little effect on him?
In seconds, the one they had called Thane
gripped my wrist, the sudden movement knocking the gun from my hand. He shoved
my captor away from me and contained me with one arm wrapped around my body
like an impenetrable band of
iron.
Thane
chuckled softly over my head. “Let’s not underestimate this
one.”
