beren_writes at New Novel: Advent by Natasha Duncan-DrakeMy new novel is out today. The price is too high on Amazon UK at the moment, but that will be rectified as soon as Amazon KDP let me edit it (hopefully today) - if you are in the UK I suggest you buy it from Smashwords until then. (It's because UK eBooks have VAT on them). Edited!
There are no Twilight style vamps in this novel, the vampires are nasty, but there is a little romance a lot of action and plenty of fangs.

Description:Every hunter knows killing a victim is an act of mercy. Every hunter knows there is no cure. Every hunter is wrong. Nate Lavern became a hunter at eighteen and was well aware of the golden rule until he met Lexie. Lexie is a white witch infected with vampirism and when Nate was infected as well she showed him her secret for staying partially human. Together they hunt vampires, protecting the unsuspecting general public, but their magical solution is beginning to fail. Their only hope is the Avebury ritual, little more than a legend even in hunter circles, and requiring four ancient relics. They are running out of time and must find out what is truth and what is myth; what is real and where it has been hidden. | ||||||||||||||||||

ExcerptConflict enveloped him in less time that it took for a normal human heart to beat. Part of his mind screamed that Lexie's reaction was a warning and he was close to the edge. Another part enjoyed the fear he could see in her eyes. His rational brain told him that this woman was his friend and sometimes lover; his vampire instincts told him this thing before him was a shell of a human being fit only to be slaughtered."Nate," Lexie's voice would have been steady to a normal ear, but to Nate's acute hearing the slight quaver was obvious, "you're scaring me." "Really? I'm so sorry." But he wasn't, not in the slightest and he smiled at her. "Oh crap, fangs," Lexie said, the fear was evident in her voice. She took another step backwards. | ||||||||||||||||||
