Embraced by Blood — Laurie London

Deep within the forests of the Pacific Northwest, two vampire coalitions battle for supremacy -- Guardian enforcers who safeguard humanity and Darkbloods, rogues who kill like their ancient ancestors.

Is she a deadly temptation...or the one woman who can quench his eternal thirst?

Alfonso Serrano is a hunted man. For months he's managed to elude the Darkbloods, vengeful foes who won't rest until he's dead. But he still craves one dangerous temptation: Lily DeGraff, the sexy Guardian agent he'll risk anything to protect.

Lily is a wanted woman. Her talent for tracking Sweet -- a rare blood type that's addictive to vampires -- makes her a prime target for enemy capture. Her only hope is the stealthy vampire operative who stole into her bed...then left her in despair. Danger aside -- Lily won't let Alfonso near her heart again-until an irresistible hunger draws them back together...and into an assassin's snare.
