Longfellow Seduced — Sierra Summers; V.J. Summers

Magnus Crowe -- previously enslaved by his sire, the Vampire Contessa Allessandra -- does not trust beautiful women. So when he discovers someone is embezzling from his club, he resents being forced to call in a woman to fix it. Prudence Longfellow, a forensic accountant, comes from an ancient line of powerful Longfellow women. She agrees to track the club's missing money with one condition -- Magnus must stay out of her way. That's a promise easier made than kept. Magnus can't deny his strong attraction to this enthralling woman and Prudence, despite her best efforts, gives in to Magnus' seduction. Repeatedly. They can't keep their hands to themselves whenever they're together and soon they have to face up to the possibility that they might be intoxicated by something more than intense desire for each other. But Allessandra is back, and she wants to claim the man she created -- only he doesn't belong to her anymore. Prudence has staked her claim, and she's not giving him up without a fight.
