Genre: Paranormal Romance
Kiera Rossard’s secret life just got complicated. When not being a vampire aristocrat she’s the leader of the Nightshade League, a rebel vampire society that rescues werewolves during the interspecies war. Everyone wants her dead—vampires and the werewolves who don’t know her secret. Starting with the wolf she just saved—Michael Durand, the most vicious killer of her kind in existence. Something about the notorious werewolf sets her blood on fire. She’s not good at resisting temptation. So what if vampires always bite when they're turned on? And so what if one drop of his blood will kill her? What’s life without a little risk? Michael doesn’t like vampires. At all. But now he’s losing his mind over the dark desire Kiera stirs in him. He should plot her death. Only, she’s hot and mouthy. Staying near her a bit longer is irresistible. When unforgiving forces hone in on her secret identity, he must decide between duty to his people and protecting her. But if he stays, who will protect her from him?

Zoe Forward is a hopeless romantic who can't decide between paranormal and contemporary romance. So she writes both. In addition to being a mom to one rambunctious kindergartener and wife to a conservation ecologist who plans to save all the big cats on the planet, she's a small animal veterinarian caring for all the small furries, although there has been the occasional hermit crab. When she's not typing at her laptop she's tying on a karate belt for her son or cleaning up the newest pet mess from the menagerie that occupies her house. She's madly in love with her globe-trotting husband and happiest when he returns to their home base in North Carolina.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Just what I needed to satisfy my paranormal mood.
This is part of a series and can be read as a standalone. This story moves at a good pace and is never boring. Lots of action scenes before we get to the romance parts. We also get a little magic thrown in there too and that brings a little twist too.
Kiera Rossard leads a complicated life. Her status as the daughter of powerful vampires and the leader of The Nightshade League. A rebel vampire society that helps werewolves in need/danger. She's always in danger as well, from the vampires hunting members of the league and from the werewolves who don't realize what she does to help their species. Especially the one she just saved, Michael Durand, the most vicious vampire killer.
When she catches the scent of his blood it calls to her and leaves her almost unable to resist him.
Michael loathes vampires but Kiera stirs something in him. She's making him feel things he's never felt before. They both know they should walk away but keep finding a way back to each other. Michael tries talking Kiera out of her next mission. When she sets out to fulfill the mission he goes to protect her. But will they be able to survive this growing attraction they feel for each other?
