From the Back Cover
My sneakers hit the pavement and my heart slams like the truck door behind me.
"Watch it!" My cousin and best friend Erick hops out of the drivers' side, reprimanding me at the same time. Sensitive about his truck.
"Sorry," I mutter.�
The dim, enclosed parking garage puts me on edge. It's a perfect place for vampires. But it's early afternoon, not their prime hunting time.
The upscale Austin, Texas, mall parking lot is packed with sedans and trucks.�
I sling a motorcycle helmet into the bed of the truck, where it joins the massive four-wheeler we just spent an exhilarating morning breaking in. A gift for his eighteenth birthday a couple of months ago.�
For my eighteenth, I'm getting a night of torture. Mom-style.
"I can't believe you're making me do this." Erick stuffs his hands in his pockets as we walk toward the mall entrance.
His jeans and t-shirt are mud-splattered, and when I look down, mine haven't fared any better. I run a hand over my hair and discover most of it has come loose from the long braid down my back.�
Thank goodness�she�isn't here to see. And Sunday afternoon traffic at the mall is light.
"I can't believe�my mom�is making me do this," I grumble.
He's heard it all before, how I can't stand the thought of going through a cotillion, a big debutante ball to-do for my birthday party. I'd rather be focusing on my martial arts, but my mom insists. Until I turn eighteen, I have to bow to her wishes, including not fighting.
But on Sunday, the day after my birthday, I'll be hunting.
Seven more days until freedom.
For today, Erick and I have to pick out my dress. I think mom knew better than to join me. Ending up in a blowout fight in such a public place would probably ruin her rep with her ritzy friends.�
"Let's get this over with." Surely it won't take long to find something gaudy enough for my mother.
Twenty minutes later, I'm staring at myself in the mirrors surrounding me, the horror I feel reflected on my face. In triplicate.
"It doesn't fit right. Just like all the rest." This is the fifth one.
I know why, even if Erick and the sales lady helping us are too polite to say anything. I'm too flat up top, too tall, and too skinny to pull off any of these formal gowns.
On the other hand, the gowns with strapless or spaghetti straps show off my biceps nicely. Too bad I can't have a�kama--a traditional Filipino weapon, looks like a scythe--as an accessory. But my mom seems to want to forget the weapons part of our family tradition and focus only on this big party.�
"Maybe something knee-length..." the sales lady murmurs, hurrying away from the dressing room.
Take me with you!�I shout silently.
Behind me in the mirror, Erick plays on his smartphone.
I snap my fingers and he looks up; our eyes meet in the mirror. "Is it too much to ask for you to actually look at the dresses?"
He shrugs. "I'm not a chick. You should've asked a girl along if you wanted a commentary on color and frills."
But he knows I don't have any real girlfriends, so I'm not surprised when he puts the phone down next to his thigh and leans forward on his elbows. "It's not�that�bad."
I snort at his blatant lie.�
He crosses his eyes in the mirror at me.�
I stick my tongue out, and it's almost like we're in sixth grade again. Back when everything was easy. Back when my dad was alive.
"I wish I were your sister."
He rolls his eyes. "If you think my dad would let you out of having a debutante, you're crazy."
"At least he'd let me�Chase."
Our eyes meet again in the mirror, serious this time. It's something that's always there in the back of our minds... the vampires we were born to destroy.�
My mom married into a Chaser family, but I don't think she really understood what it meant until after my dad died. In our branch of the family tree, I'm the only one who can carry on the legacy. I can't just let it die, not when it's something I've been born to do. Someone has to step up and protect the humans.
Even if it means she and I part ways after this shindig. I haven't exactly told her my plan, though.
"Try this one." The sales lady bustles back into the dressing area and shoves a pile of magenta fabric into my arms. She pushes me off the carpeted block in front of the mirrors toward the changing rooms.
I'm pulling the dress over my head, wobbling in the unfamiliar high heels the saleslady forced on me earlier, when I hear another male voice join Erick's outside the curtain. I don't pay much attention to it. It's probably another guy here to help his girlfriend find a prom dress. Acting the contortionist to zip the side zipper takes enough concentration. This dress feels like it hugs in all the right places, but there isn't a mirror in this closet-like space, so I push aside the curtain...
And freeze on the threshold.�
Erick isn't alone, and the guy with him is possibly the last person on earth I want to see.
Brett Carson.
An irrational burst of heat fills my neck and cheeks as Brett's bright blue eyes lock on mine. His shock of short brown hair is as unwelcome as the rest of him. His usual cowboy hat is missing, though the boots are there beneath his jeans.
He wolf whistles and curses softly as his gaze travels the length of my body.
"What are you doing here?" I bark, because I'm pretty sure he's mocking me. I don't trust anything about Brett, not since his betrayal two years ago.
Trying to ignore the hot feeling of his gaze, I march to the block and hop up, examining every minute detail of the dress.
"I was in the neighborhood," he says.
Over my shoulder in the mirror, I see a flash of white teeth against his tanned skin, but I don't respond to his remark.
Erick is suspiciously silent. If my cousin had anything to do with Brett showing up, I'll beat it out of him later.
The sales clerk moves close and tugs at my bodice. "This one fits much better, dear. Makes it look like you've got something up here after all."
The heat in my face intensifies. I don't have any illusions about my attractiveness to the opposite sex, not with my build, but she didn't have to point that out in front of Brett, did she?
"And it makes your legs look great."�
My eyes dart to Brett's in the mirror and our gazes collide. Did he really just say that?
Erick clears his throat and I blink, breaking the connection, but the sudden roiling in my stomach remains.
"Can we get it and go?" my cousin mutters, shifting his feet.
"Fine," I agree.�
The sales clerk motions me to turn around. "Lift your arms, dear. There's a bit of extra fabric here..." She pinches a fingerful of purple beneath my armpits. "We've got a seamstress on staff who can fix this for you in a couple of days. It'll be a perfect fit."
"That's fine. Thanks," I grudgingly say, because it isn't her fault I've got to have the dress.
There's a chance my mother will hate it. I know she wanted me to wear something floor-length, but like Erick said, this�is�the dress. If mother doesn't like it, she can come shopping herself.
"So what's the occasion? Planning a party to celebrate your win this weekend?"�
We both know he's talking about the freestyle martial arts tournament that is sponsored by our dojo. Three days of fighting. It's the biggest event of its kind in this part of Texas. I've been waiting all year to compete. Besides being able to Chase, this is the next most important thing to me, a chance to showcase my talents and prove to my uncle I should be allowed to join the family business.
Brett has wandered closer and continues examining me from head to toe. What is he looking for, the keys to the universe?

Rival
By JV816
I received a copy of this novella from netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
Emily is trying to get past her eighteenth birthday so her mom can finally stop holding her back from becoming a chaser. She feels like it is in her blood to follow in her family's footsteps.
Emily's ex friend, Brett, comes back into her life after two years of not speaking. Emily believes he threw their championship match but Brett has secrets of his own. While trying to finally rid himself of his feelings for Emily, he ends up falling harder.
I loved the first book in this series. I thought it was pretty neat to see how Emily becomes part of the team. While this novella isn't really a pivotal part of the story, it's pretty interesting side story. I can't wait to read book 2, shadow allegiance.

Kicked butt
By Nanee
Although on the shorter side, I thought this book kicked butt. Emily Santos kicks ass on the mats (she's a black belt) and when she's fighting for her life. She's a Chaser, she protects humans and kills vampires, this is what she was born to do. I loved that even though she's born into a family of Chasers her mom still wants her to dress up like a "lady" and have her debutant ball, like things are normal. Loved Brett, he's sexy, sweet and smitten with Emily..so sexy, tough as nails too and will fight for Emily. Loved Erik too, not only is he Emily's cousin he's her best friend and fellow Chaser. Action packed, kick ass and some sweet lovin to, this story has it all. 4 stars review by Nanee at upallnightreadallday.blogspot.com
