Vampire Raymond Metcalf has too many balls to juggle and life is getting more complicated by the minute. As if working with a covert team of sexy vampires to protect the President isn’t enough, he has to deal with his rebellious half-breed son, save the President from a crazed vampire, and break in a new director for his team since the last one, his best friend and the only human he trusts, has decided to retire. Why does his friend’s replacement have to be the most beautiful human woman Raymond has ever seen?
Career military woman, Alex Brennan, is being offered the promotion of a lifetime, and with it a romance that she has desperately been seeking. Does she dare accept the position as Director of the COLONY, an elite group of deadly creatures of the night and risk a dangerous romance with a man who isn’t even human? Together, can they save the President?
Vampires exist among us. They can be your neighbor, your best friend, a teacher for your child, etc. They alter their aged appearance based upon the amount of blood they consume. They move to a new area, drink a lot of blood, and appear young. Slowly they limit their intake of blood and age, right in front of our unsuspecting eyes. After decades, they fake their death, move, and do it over and over again.
Most live quiet lives in an effort to blend in. Some, however, want power and control.
The COLONY is an elite group of vampires sworn to protect the President of the United States from these rogue vampires.

I was diagnosed with cancer in 2017 and then the pandemic hit in 2020. My book sales have dropped considerably. I'm healthy now, and we're (hopefully) past the pandemic, so I want to focus on my backlist of books and market as much as I can.

Raymond smiled at Alex. It was a beautiful smile, not fake or forced. His teal colored eyes held the smile, not just his luscious, full lips. Alex noticed his hair remained a bit damp, probably due to a last-minute shower on his way over. His hair parted on the side tonight, and a curl of bangs hung lopsided onto his forehead. It gave him a Superman appearance. She always did like Superman.
Alex knew her pulse sped up as she took in the visual strip tease in her mind. She thought back to their earlier conversation. Humans and vampires could have sex together. Sex. She swallowed hard. She hadn’t thought of having sex with a man in a long time. Her heart sped up even faster. She wondered if he could hear the beats. If he did, he didn’t show any reaction. He just sat sipping his wine, looking sexy as hell.
She knew in her heart that she was going to take this promotion. She couldn’t start a romance with a team member, it wasn’t professional. She wasn’t that type of woman. But he was giving her signals she couldn't ignore.
“Alex?” Raymond asked.
Alex looked up, making eye contact. “What?”
He narrowed the space between them. "I want to share a secret with you."
Her mind raced. They didn't see eye-to-eye on her training schedule, and she wasn't sure if they were on the same page. Would he suggest putting a pin in her training? Or was the secret about his growing feelings for her. If so, she'd want to circle back to the discussion about her promotion later.
"What is it?" she asked. [This book does have one sex scene.]

Author review: I don't read Spanish but know several family members and friends who do. They all said the translation of my book was very good. The turnaround time was very quick too. I'm very pleased. I would enjoy working with this translator again. |
