Free (DRM-free) Viper [Hereditary Vampire Biker Club vs Killer Romantic Suspense]

[ATDrake]

Viper by Patricia A. Rasey is the 1st in her Sons of Sangue series of f/m contemporary paranormal romantic suspense novels starring literal blood descendants of the original model for Dracula, Vlad Tepes himself (Wikipedia), who also happen to be secretly vampiric motorcycle club leaders in a world where their existence is carefully hidden, this installment featuring one such descendant's run-in with a plucky human detective who's on the trail of a blood-draining serial killer whom she initially suspects may be him, free courtesy of the author herself and All Romance eBooks as their Christmas Countdown Giveaway selection for December 15th.

This has a medium 3 flames on the ARE heat index, and no particular warnings in the tags. Apparently further books star descendants who are not only surnamed Tepes, but also Gabor. I sincerely hope the latter has vampiric sisters named Zsa Zsa, Eva, and Magda.

Description
Kane 'Viper' Tepes is one of the oldest living descendants of Vlad III. Vampirism is in his blood. So is being the President of the Sons of Sangue. Those who break motorcycle club rules that protect their coven are dealt swift punishment. No exceptions. Until one pretty little detective has him compromising his beliefs, and endangering his position as head of the MC.

Vampirism had Cara Brahnam turning tail and leaving behind her life in Pleasant. Now, ten years later, she's back as lead detective and wants to see the person responsible for draining the women of Lane County brought to justice, no matter what deal the gang of miscreants has struck with the sheriff. Or the fact that her number one suspect is the sole reason she fled in the first place.

Now someone has targeted Cara as the next victim and Kane must join in the hunt to find the ancient vampire that wants her dead.
