<i>The hunted now becomes the predator.</i><br /><br />I bit a vampire. I sank my teeth right into his flesh and drew blood, and I liked it. Now, I&rsquo;m craving it as if I&rsquo;m a creature of the night. I&rsquo;m far from it. My family has been hunting bloodsuckers for centuries.<br /><br />So it comes as a horrifying shock when my aunt catches me licking blood off a knife like its cake batter. Panicking, she calls someone who she thinks can help me. Little does she know that dangling me like a carrot to formidable Sam Mason has consequences no one is prepared for, especially me.<br /><br />I&rsquo;m not ready to deal with the cocky Vampire Navy SEAL who rocked my world so hard, my brain is still recovering, and my body is still tingling.<br /><br />But when I find the powerful Sam Mason and my aunt chatting like besties, my heart almost stops beating. If my uncle finds Sam on his property, he&rsquo;ll burn him alive.<br /><br />Little do I know it&rsquo;s not my uncle I have to worry about. One of my sisters decides that I&rsquo;m better off not falling for a bloodsucker. I assure her I&rsquo;m not. But she knows me better than I know myself.<br /><br />Now instead of killing vampires, I&rsquo;m rushing to save one. I pray I can get there in time. Otherwise, my family will suffer a fate worse than death.<br /><br /><i>The Predator</i> is an enemies-to-lovers, paranormal, military romance, and the second book in the new Vampire Navy SEAL spin-off series. Layla and Sam&rsquo;s story is a slow burn romance with a feisty heroine, snarky banter, action, suspense, off-the-charts steamy times and ends on a cliffhanger. Layla and Sam&rsquo;s story starts in <i>The Hunted</i> and should be read first.<br /><br /><b>Series Reading Order: </b><br />1. The Hunted<br />2. The Predator<br />3. The Union<br />4.
