Meet the newest members of the Vampire Guard, where legend
and myth meet science and technology.
Jonas Forge, vampire. Once a spy and soldier, now a cop,
Forge enjoys the life he’s built with his friends in Flint, Ohio.
Blair Turner, PhD. Blair, a vampire and computer hacker
with exceptional skills, shares a powerful empathic bond with Forge, his
soulmate.
Declan, vampire, ex-pirate, ex-fur trapper, thief, and con
man. Declan is Forge’s former lover and soulmate to Lucas
Coate.
Lucas Coate, MD, Flint’s medical examiner. A werewolf living
amongst vampires, Lucas is also one of Forge’s best friends.
Their lives become complicated when an impending presidential
visit throws them headlong into a world of high tech vampire spies and
espionage. Recruited into the Vampire Guard by the secret society of the
Akhkharu Nasaru, they uncover a werewolf terrorist organization known as the
Qiguan.
Together they must thwart a murder attempt on the open waters
of Lake Superior while tracking a previously unknown biological weapon
controlled by the Qiquan—a weapon that may very well mean death for one of
them.

Excerpt:
Lucas decided
it was his good luck—no, it was a real blessing—neither Declan nor Forge could
read his mind. Right now he wanted to kill them both. Lucas could do it too.
Ten minutes wolfed out was all he needed. Vampires might be faster, but
werewolves were stronger.
Being in a
surveillance van with three vampires wasn’t the fun and excitement one might
expect it to be. Lucas liked Kai, but he was sure Ori would agree that in this
circumstance, Kai would have to die too.
Forge was
pacing, at least as well as a man could inside a van with three other decently
sized men. Lucas was leaning against one side, gazing at a camera feed, and
doing his best to stay out of the way and not strangle Forge.
Declan put
both hands on Forge’s shoulders and said, “Jonas, he’ll be fine.”
“He’s never
done anything like this.” Forge turned and stared at the monitor. “Damn, I wish
I could see him and not just hear him.”
“Jonas, it’s
a pizza parlor, and she’s a research scientist. What the hell can she do to
him?” Declan asked. Forge and Kai both turned to look at him. Declan heaved a
sigh and shoved Forge into the seat beside Kai. “Relax. You can hear every word
they say and feel what Blair feels. If anything goes wrong, you’ll know it
practically before he does. You and I muddled through information collection
with far less support and lived.” Declan rolled his eyes and focused on Lucas.
“I should go
out there and back him up. In case.” Forge started to stand, but Lucas helped
Declan push him back down.
“In case of
what? They run out of pepperoni?” Lucas asked.
“She might
recognize you,” Kai said. “You’re the head detective of this town. There is no
need to take the risk someone will recognize you and blow everything. Besides,
when making contact with someone with the express purpose of entering some sort
of relationship with them, having your bond mate hanging around a few feet away
is a bad idea.”
“He speaks
from experience,” Ori chimed in and chuckled.
“You all do
realize I can hear you, right?” Blair’s voice was crisp and clear coming from
the speaker.
“Heads up.
There she is. She’s about to walk through the door,” Kai said. He pointed to
the monitor. “Got to love predictable people.”

Meet the author:
Elizabeth Noble lives by the adage “I can’t not write”. She
can’t remember a time when she didn’t make up stories and eventually she
learned how to write them down. A part of every day is spent living in worlds
she created that are filled with intrigue and espionage. Using a real love of scifi and urban fantasy
highlighted by twisty plots she crafts stories taking place in a slightly
altered version of our world.
When she’s not chronicling the adventures of her many
characters Elizabeth is a veterinary nurse living in her native Cleveland,
Ohio. She shares her little brick house with an adorable canine princess and
her tabby cat side-kick. Elizabeth is a fan of baseball, basketball (go Cavs
and Indians!) and gardening. She can often be found working in her ‘outside
office’ listening to classic rock and plotting her next novel waiting for it to
be dark enough to gaze at the stars.
Elizabeth received several amateur writing awards. Since
being published two of her novels have received honorable mentions in the
Rainbow Awards. Her novel Jewel Cave
was a runner up in the 2015 Rainbow awards in the Gay Mystery/Thriller
category.
