Hearts at Stake by Alyxandra Harvey Pdf

The first novel in a YA fantasy romance series featuring “vampires with bite and girls who bite back. A witty, exhilarating and fresh take on an old tale” (Kelley Armstrong). On her sixteenth birthday, Solange Drake is going to die . . . But that’s okay. As the only daughter ever born to an ancient vampire dynasty, Solange’s sweet sixteen just means she will fully come into her own as an immortal. Unfortunately, it also means a lot of people both dead and undead are now watching her. Especially Kieran Black—a vengeful agent with an anti-vampire league who blames Solange’s family for his father’s death. Luckily, Solange has her human best friend, Lucy, who tries to help her have as normal a life as possible, despite her overprotective brothers and the politics of the undead realm. But when Solange is abducted by a power-hungry vampire queen, it will take all her friends—as well as the daring and dangerous Kieran—to rescue her before she loses her eternal life . . . In this “action-packed” (School Library Journal) story of love, loyalty, and blood ties, Alyxandra Harvey kicks off a saga of thrills with a nail-biter—and a neck-biter—that will have readers eager to devour the rest of the series. Hearts at Stake is the 1st book in the Drake Chronicles, which also includes Blood Feud and Out for Blood.

Blood Feud by Alyxandra Harvey Pdf

The YA fantasy romance saga continues with “vampires with bite and girls who bite back. A witty, exhilarating and fresh take on an old tale” (Kelley Armstrong). The day Isabeau St. Croix was turned into a vampire, she was buried alive and left for dead by a vicious British lord. Now, over two hundred years later, she has finally emerged from her nightmarish captivity to seek revenge. To her dismay, the vampire world is edging on chaos as different factions vie for power, and Isabeau soon finds herself pulled into the shadowy world of undead politics and betrayal. It is there she meets the handsome Logan Drake, whose noble family must fend off those who would try to usurp them. Then the dread vampire Montmartre begins a plot that will force Logan’s sister, Solange, into a marriage that will allow him to claim the throne for himself. And unless the clans stand together—and Isabeau and Logan stand with each other—the entire vampire realm may be torn asunder. With this second adventure in the Drake Chronicles, Alyxandra Harvey “continues to weave an action-packed story full of intrigue, suspense, and romance with a great cast of characters” (School Library Journal). Blood Feud is the 2nd book in the Drake Chronicles, which also includes Hearts at Stake and Out for Blood.

Stake by Kevin J. Anderson Pdf

Vampire hunter or serial killer? That depends on whether vampires exist . . . Simon Helsing believes the only way to stop a bad guy with fangs is a good guy with a stake. He has devoted his life to ridding the world of vampires. He hunts them, finds their daytime lairs, and pounds a stake through their hearts. Lexi Tarada wants to believe. She's desperate to prove that the strange and impossible can be real. She runs a website for the unexplained and tries to sift through the crazy conspiracy theories to find out what is - or might be - real. Detective Todd Carrow is a skeptic. Haunted by visions of brutal killings from a previous case, he sees the latest gruesome murders as nothing more than the actions of a madman targeting innocents. Helsing is convinced he's doing good, but what if vampires aren't real and Carrow is right?

Bleeding Hearts by Alyxandra Harvey Pdf

The fourth book in the young adult vampire romance series that’s “fun, funny, and a relief from Twilight wannabes” from the author of Out for Blood (Booklist). As the newly crowned vampire princess, Solange Drake has a lot to get used to—including some new fangs. Her family is also hosting the Blood Moon, a rare gathering, in the forest near their farm, which means Solange’s best friend, the all-too-human Lucy, must keep her distance, whether she wants to or not. While the Drakes are busy with the party—and keeping a pack of feral vampires at bay—Lucy has her training at the Helios-Ra Academy (aka Vampire–Hunter High) to keep her occupied. And there’s her cousin Christabel, who almost seems to have a personality when her head isn’t buried in a book. But when Christabel is mistaken for Lucy and kidnapped, it becomes clear that someone—or something—wants to hit Solange where it hurts. No one messes with Connor Drake’s friends and family and gets away with it, especially since Christabel has awoken feelings in him he can’t fight, including the fear that he might not be able to save her . . . Praise for the Drake Chronicles “Vampires with bite and girls who bite back. A witty, exhilarating and fresh take on an old tale.” —Kelley Armstrong, #1 New York Times–bestselling author “An action-packed story full of intrigue, suspense, and romance with a great cast of characters.” —School Library Journal “An all-around kick-ass good time.” —Fyrefly’s Book Blog

Stake Night by Susan Archer Pdf

Stake Night is the story of a single year in the glamorous and competitive world of show horses, where the rewards are large and so are the lengths to which people will go to win. For the owners, it is about wielding power through money in their quest to proudly hold the prestigious World Championship trophy. For the riders, it is about demonstrating technical skill and nerve by out-riding their competitors and maneuvering their horse in the frenetic ring so the judges notice it. For the trainers, it is about finding the key that makes your horse out-perform others that might actually be more talented and achieving the professional recognition that leads to new clients and financial security. For everyone, it is about settling scores and finding a way to win the championship. The central character is Jennifer, a young, relatively unknown trainer. She can't believe her luck when a rich client brings her the reigning world champion horse and tells Jennifer to prepare the horse for her timid daughter to ride. Jennifer quickly learns that this horse and rider are a dangerous and doomed combination, and she must move carefully to find an alternative that keeps her important client from leaving the barn and ruining Jennifer's chances to finally join the ranks of the most well-known and respected trainers.

A Father's Stake by Mary Anne Wilson Pdf

The ranch should have been his… To struggling single mom and L.A. waitress Grace Evans, a ranch was a place for horses and cowboys—not a place for her and her daughter to live. Now, thanks to a shocking windfall from her estranged father, she owns one! It's a crazy notion, but Wolf Lake could be her shot at a whole new life in New Mexico. The only question is: Can she handle it? Obviously Jack Carson, the handsome and haunted rightful heir to Wolf Lake, doesn't think so. And he isn't about to hand over the reins without a fight.

Blood Prophecy by Alyxandra Harvey Pdf

Solange Drake has been officially crowned Queen of the Vampires, fulfilling the centuries old prophecy that foretold the rise to power of a daughter born to an ancient vampire line. Except Solange's thoughts and actions are no longer her own-she's been slowly being possessed by the spirit of Viola, the first daughter born into the Drake line, since her bloodchange. And instead of uniting the vampire tribes under the rule of an ancient daughter as the prophecy predicted, Viola would rather destroy them all and enslave humans in a personal vendetta for the devastation both wrought to her life centuries ago. Can Solange break her hold in time to save everyone she loves from a vampire civil war, hunter attack, and each other? Not everyone will survive the prophecy . . . perhaps not even her.
