Half-breed succubus Shia Hawley thrives in hunting down rogue paranormal threats as a bounty huntress. That is, until she was infected with wolf blood by an obsessive shifter. Now on a mission to find a cure, she takes matter into her own hands to bring down her enemies.
Werewolf Enforcer Jaxon Rayes is a natural defender when it comes to protecting others, including the feisty succubus. From the moment he shared a kiss with Shia, she literally took his breath away. The alluring beauty fascinates him unlike anyone, and he's determined to help and win her over.
As they spend more time together, Shia begins to rely on the shifter for more than just safety. Being close to him stirs up a wild hunger she can't seemed to contain. But as their sexual attraction grows, so does the danger surrounding them. Can Jaxon keep them both alive before their enemy attacks and her infection escalates out of control?
Claiming the Succubus
Takers Book 1
Being a Succubus has its perks…until the hunter becomes the hunted.
For half-breed succubus Ava Hawley, hunting supernatural foes is worth all the risks and rewards. But when a wolf shifter is responsible for kidnapping her sister, the mission becomes personal. Ava is ordered to track down the bad boy and turn him over to her boss. That is, until she meets the dangerously sexy shifter and realizes her charm—the kiss of death—is no match for the charms of her opponent.
Alpha werewolf Killian Reid is on the run from a demon mistress, but someone else is on his tail—a stunning seductress with more sex appeal than any woman ought to have. And Killian can't resist her. Proving his innocence will be a challenge, but with every moment that he spends with her, Ava’s self-control weakens. And as their attraction grows, she knows she’ll have to rely on the shifter she'd been sent to capture, or they’ll both become victims to another predator…

Excerpt 1
With his face only inches away, she could practically lick perspiration off his upper lip. Delectable full, firm lips to die for. The temptation to kiss him rocked through her, but she knew one taste was far too dangerous.
“I've wanted to do this since you've stepped through the door.”
“Jax—”
He crushed his lips over hers and delved his tongue into her mouth, stroking her with a sense of ardent hunger. Her breath heaved out at the delicious assault, and then replaced it with a deep-throaty moan. She lost all focus and melted into him when he captured her face between his palms.
Christ, she wanted him badly.
The moment he angled his head to the side and ravished her lips with a groan, nothing else mattered except having him. Compelled with lust, her defense walls lowered instantly, and a rush of power charged through her blood, making her feminine parts throb with desperate need.
Feed. Take. Kill.
Stop! You have to control it. Shia jerked her head away and sucked air into her lungs, taking a mouthful at a time. The heave in her chest rose and fell, but Jaxon didn't slow down. He pressed forward and attempted to kiss her again.
“Don't,” she bit out. Any longer and she'd have drained all of his energy. At this rate, he'd be lucky to get through without even a scratch.
Excerpt 2
A man with a striking handsome face and dark cropped hair emerged on the scene. He was tall, over six-feet of hard earned muscles and brooding shoulders, standing only mere feet away from her. Sporting coal boots and a gray Henley shirt, the front slightly tucked inside his dark denim, his natural aura exuded danger and pure masculine power.
But then his eyes flicked to hers. The depths of golden fire seized her attention, capturing her prisoner as he held her gaze and she almost forgot to blink.
One of his dark brows arched up. “Shia.”
Oh damn. Jaxon Rayes.
Everything in the background faded away when her name escaped from his mouth. All thoughts of their first heady kiss came crashing in a rush, and she couldn’t look away. A trail of hot flames licked up her spine and descended lower to her abdomen, making her heart race and her knees weaken at the sight of him.
“Drop the weapon,” he spoke evenly.
There was no heat in his voice, though she couldn't say the same about her body. With his keen sense of smell, she bet the Enforcer had caught her arousal right away. The flare of his nostrils was hard to miss.
Rooted to the spot, she stared back at him and made no effort to move.
He waited.
She persisted.
Then a growl emanated from him. “Shia.” Rougher this time.
Damn. Knowing she didn’t have much choice at this point against the pack, she released the dagger and held her hands up in surrender.
I had a lot of fun with the Hawley sisters
Ava and Shia are both half succubus half ??
(You will have to read each of their stories to get that little tidbit)
They are trained bounty hunters, supernatural assassins -
Their jobs?
To keep the supernatural community under control -
To apprehend the lawless -
At all costs
My biggest problem with theses stories was I soooo wish these were longer
I enjoy strong female leads and that was definitely the case here.
The couples are "fated mates"
which means the attraction is almost instant and the final capitulation?
Explosive!!
Both stories were fast-paced - action-packed and sweetly romantic
I am excited to see who is up next
As an enthusiast of action-packed movies like John Wick and Underworld, I love exciting and engaging plots. Throw in some steamy scenes with a twist of suspense, and I’m all for it. This is where my inspiration came from with my Takers Series. Alpha heroes are my favorite, but I also really like female-led characters that are smart, fierce and imperfect.
When not writing, I’m always down to trying new foodies or out scavenging for home good deals. One thing I can't get enough of is coffee, especially during my editing phase. I love connecting with readers, so drop by my website and say hello.
