Temptation

Ruggedly handsome and intensely confident, Max takes it upon himself to protect Colette from a rogue vampire. People frequently underestimate Colette. She can shapeshift effortlessly and still others feel the need to shelter her. Max might be her temporary guardian, but he is more tempting than any man she's ever known. Refusing to be ignored, and hoping to prolong their time together, Colette volunteers for the next mission. His men managed to kill Taerok; now Max must locate the vampire's lair. Having a female shapeshifter along would make things easier, but Colette is a complete unknown to him. Besides, the mission will take them deep into the seedy underworld of renegade vampires--which is no place for an adorable pixie! Colette insists she's uniquely qualified for the mission, so Max challenges her to a night of "conditioning." Expecting his first sexual demand to terrify her, Max soon realizes there's more to Colette than her impish appearance and feisty personality.
