Blurb:
Three novellas of paranormal romance. There is something about the darkness that liberates our deeper, more sensual desires. Combine that with the power of true love and you have a recipe for perfection when the heart gets what it wants, and the body is satisfied through carnal stimulation. The ties that bind are not always visible, the universal concept of love, not always seen clearly through the eyes of the wandering traveler. This is no truer than in the case of Solan, a warrior with an unknown destiny in "Finding Eternity." Wounded on the battlefield, his rescue by a vampire who yearns to be his proves to be too much for a man with no concept of ownership. "Cream on the Crop" is a rather tongue in cheek, yet powerful story about a strong willed woman of privilege making her own way in the country until a specter appears and shows her carnal delights through submission of more than just will. Demanding blood lust fuels our characters in "Hunter's Bounty," a tale of rescue featuring a very unlikely type of shape-shifter as love interest for our vampire heroine. Each tale weaves the intricacies of kinky sensuality, sensual romance and story enough to keep you turning the pages of this hot collection. Perhaps you, too, may find yourself lucky enough to be Bound After Midnight...

Excerpts:
Finding Eternity by Sascha Illyvich
"No cut too deep," he took a step forward. Then another. Dirt and gravel crunched beneath his boots. "No road too long. No wind too hard…" The words came out by rote, a chant he'd heard ever since coming to consciousness one day. Strain in his voice became apparent.
Nothing around the desolate battlefield could sustain him. With darkness setting soon, his only respite would be sleep, if he could find shelter.
The war between humans and the Other raged endlessly.
When he awoke to find the palace he called home ablaze, he knew only one thing. Find safety, then regroup. He'd been on the road so long that safety was no longer a priority. He'd soon discovered the world was in a chaotic state. The Others tried to conquer the humans, and the balance of power shifted often.
He supposed in the end, he was his own side.
Solan had to survive; he had a destiny to fulfill.
His vision blurred. Something dug into his uncovered knees and cut his skin.
Someone yelled.
Solan realized it was his scream permeating the air.
Tears streaked down his cheeks. Failure was not an option as long as blood flowed through his veins and his heart beat. What he wouldn't give to end his loneliness.
Someone, something, in the air flew toward him. A figure. He could only make out slender features in the fog and mist before the ground came at him too quickly and he saw black.....,,

Cream On The Crop by Margie Church:
"You summoned me with your little pagan show, so here I am."
The shock of seeing Jamaal Cooper standing in front of her paralyzed Neha. As though vines suddenly grew from the ground and wrapped around her legs, she couldn't move.
She shook her head as she spoke in a breathy voice. "You're not here."
Jamaal stepped forward and touched her cheek with his fingers.
His skin felt warm, and a little bit rough like a working man's hands do.
Her knees quaked. Her mind spun with a million urgent commands to flee, yet she stood there, statuesque, staring at a man who had been dead for sixty-five years. His hair, neatly braided into cornrows, reached his shirt collar. At a moment like this, Neha really questioned her sanity when all she wondered about was how he'd kept the shirt crisp and white.
"Your body quivers. Is it from fear or something else?".......

Hunter's Bounty by Bonni Sansom
"I'm gonna get off this exit. I saw a sign for a motel a little ways back. You just rest while I handle this stuff. I'll have you in the bed in no time." That was his plan. Of course, he wanted her awake for the ride, but he could wait until she woke up. It would be murder on him, but he could wait.
He pulled into his assigned space in front of their door and stopped. When he shut the engine off, he heard her softly snoring.
Nothing louder than a whisper, but it made her look vulnerable, and that meant he would have to protect her, not the other way around.
She looked like she had a fight in her but makeup sex was just as fun as any other. He carried in the backpack and hid the weapons under the backseat. Next was carrying Lana inside. He opened the door slowly, so she didn't fall out; he caught her head in his hand and scooped her up into his arms, carrying her inside. "Yeah, you're one tough cookie aren't you?" He said into her hair as he carried her. She needed to feed and quickly, he shook her to wake her.
"What do you want? I'm sleeping here." She turned away from the sunlight peeking in between the curtains.
Devon immediately drew the shades which gave it a night effect.
He hung the 'Do Not Disturb" sign on the door handle, so there would be no interruptions. He went back to his little vamp and settled in beside her. He nudged her a few times, trying to wake her.
"What? I'm sleepy." She barely had her eyes open, but she was eyeing his neck.
"You need to feed, Lana. So I need you to wake up just enough to do that." He wanted her awake for more reasons than one, feeding was just an excuse.
She could only resist the blood lust for only so long and he counted on it.......
