Cooper's Passion (Scanguards Hybrids #5). Scanguards Vampires, #17

Anita Diaz, a tenacious small-town sheriff's deputy from Nevada, tracks a brutal serial killer across the American West, her pursuit leading her to the dark streets of San Francisco. There, her path collides with Cooper Montgomery, a Scanguards investigator and vampire hybrid, who's hot on the trail of a gruesome murder. Sparks fly, tempers flare, and handcuffs click as these two determined investigators clash.
Forced to team up, they hunt a monster who leaves a trail of exsanguinated bodies. Cooper knows it's only a matter of time before Anita realizes the killer is a vampire-and that he and his world are just like the fiend they're hunting. How long can he conceal his true nature as Anita's suspicions mount? As their undeniable attraction ignites, will Anita's discovery of the truth destroy their fragile alliance, or will the sizzling passion between them be enough for her to risk trusting the vampire she's falling for?ABOUT THE SERIESThe Scanguards Vampires series is full of fast-paced action, scorching love scenes, witty dialogue, and strong heroes and heroines.
Vampire Samson Woodford lives in San Francisco and owns a security/bodyguard company, Scanguards, which employs both vampires and humans. And eventually some witches. Throw in a few immortal guardians and demons later in the series, and you'll get the drift! Each book can be read as a standalone and always centers around a new couple finding love, but the series is more enjoyable when read in order.
And of course, there are always a few running jokes - you'll understand when you meet Wesley, a wannabe witch. Enjoy!Lara Adrian, New York Times Bestselling Author of the Midnight Breed series: "I'm addicted to Tina Folsom's books!
