Book Description

                 
CONSTANT DANGER

On the run from a mental institution and her vindictive half-brother, it's safe to say that Sarah Pringle's happy life as a schoolteacher is on hold. Too bad that as far as self-defense goes, "run and hide" is the best she's got. And with the monsters that started her escape hot on her heels, that's not going to cut it for long...

INSTANT LUST
That is, unless Sarah has a bigger, badder, hotter monster on her side. Max Petrovsky is right at the top of the list of alpha male ass-kickers. And he knows exactly what Sarah's up against. Good thing, because the minute he sees her something primal kicks in, turning everyday attraction into red-hot desire. As long as they're cooperating, why not mix some pleasure with business? Of course, Max should probably tell Sarah he's a vampire himself...

"Hot and fast from beginning to end."
--Kate Douglas on Fated

Review

A solid novella giving us a peek into one of the most amazing series I've ever read! I'm so glad that Zanetti seems to be able to write the full length novels and then switch easily into novella mode.  --Nikki Brandyberry Review

From the Author

Hi!  Thanks for checking out Tempted, which is a novella in the Dark Protector series.  Tempted is 2.5, meaning it's between Claimed (Book 2) and Hunted (Book 3).  Here's one of my favorite blurbs from the book:

Lightning flashed outside, throwing Max into focus. Dangerous. The man should have a warning stamped on his chest.

Sarah's shivers turned into shakes.

"Damn it." Two strides and he shoved her over on the bed. "Don't panic here, darlin'. But we're about to snuggle."

5.0 out of 5 stars Love Max! March 28, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Could not wait to get this next installment featuring Max and boy was I a happy camper! Max is a great character and seeing him mate his love Sarah was perfect, good story and well written. Hated that is was a novella-just because I could read these books forever but a great buy non-the-less! Cant wait for Conn's book in April!

5.0 out of 5 stars Dark Protectors Series book 2.5 April 23, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Tempted by Rebecca Zanetti
Book 2.5 in the Dark Protectors Series
Humans with enhanced abilities such as Sarah Pringle has, are potential mates for the vampires. So the Kurjan's are trying to destroy their mates and possible mates with a virus. Max is one of the good guys. And he finds himself suddenly in charge of a small human girl, Janie, who makes his cold heart warm. Not warm enough to have a mate to protect as well...or maybe that choice is not his once he meets Sarah Pringle.

Sarah escaped the loony bin after two months of being drugged. She is able to touch something and know what was happening with the last person who touched it before...a loony bin did not have good memories. Running from the nightmare her step-brother caused by denying some type of murder by a vampire and than saying she's crazy, she ends up in the protection of a large handsome very male soldier. Did I mention large?

This is a series, book 1 is called Fated, book 2 is Claimed this is book 2.5, book 3 is Hunted, #4 is Consumed and book #5 is yet to be titled and released.
**Sexual situations and language.
