Teaser Tuesday!

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted at Should Be Reading.

My teaser this week comes from: Goddess With A Blade by Lauren Dane.

Teaser:  "I'm not here for a tea party, Scion. In case it hadn't occurred to you, I have a murderer to find and stake before the cops find him and suddenly I have to deal with the body count and the television cameras."

Amazon Product Description:
Rowan Summerwaite is no ordinary woman. Physical vessel to the Celtic Goddess Brigid and raised by the leader of the Vampire Nation, she's a supercharged hunter with the power to slay any vampire who violates the age-old treaty.
A recent string of murders has her at odds with Las Vegas's new Scion, the arrogant and powerful Clive Stewart. The killings have the mark of Vampire all over them, and Rowan warns Clive to keep his people in line—or she'll mete out her own brand of justice.
Though her dealings with Clive are adversarial to say the least, Rowan is intensely aware of her attraction to him. But she can't let it distract her from her duty—to find and battle the killer before more women die.

"Lady Macon sighed, rolled toward the hollering, and cracked one eyelid.  Her husband's large naked back filled her field of vision.  To see any more, she'd have to lever herself upright.  Since that would probably expose her to more cold air, she declined to lever. "

page 22


She blinked several times before her vision cleared and she found herself looking up into the pale face of a strange man.
He was glaring fiercely, but not at her.
"How dare you?" His voice was quiet, but it rang in her head with both menace and authority.
