Marked By A Bite by K. J. Padgett
Ryn Leverette has just lived through the worst day of her life. Not only did she find her boyfriend cheating on her, but she also goes home to find an assassin waiting to kill her. The kicker? He’s a vampire working for someone who desperately wants her dead.
For reasons unknown, Ryn is suddenly sucked into a world of darkness and blood. Bummer, since becoming a vampire wasn’t exactly on her college to-do list.
The only upside to the situation is the gorgeous man whose scent calls to her like a siren song. It’s called a blood-bond, and if Ryn takes the bite she so desperately desires, she might end up the mate of the most handsome man she’s ever seen. But is she ready for that after her last failed relationship? Or will the assassin catch up to her before she can decide?

Author SiteAbout the author:
K. J. Padgett is the Indie Author of Marked By A Bite, book one in The Rogue Hybrid series. She has always had a fascination with monsters and loves to make them diverse and beautiful in her stories. Paranormal romance and fantasy are her favorites, but you can find her reading just about anything with a romantic plot involved. She lives in Florida with her husband, Australian Shepherd, and rescue cat (who may be a mastermind).
Here is a short sample from the book:
The tinted window rolled down and I got a good look at him. He was far too handsome to be legal as he peered through the rain at me with perfectly steady hazel eyes. I noticed the humidity put a little curl in his dirty blonde hair. Hot, my mind whispered, and I mentally kicked myself for thinking so.
“Get in,” his voice was deep, commanding.
“Bite me,” I retorted.
I wasn’t in the mood to be bossed around. Especially by someone I didn’t trust.
With my arms crossed over my chest, I started walking up the road. The car followed alongside me at a steady pace, purring like perfection.
“I could do that,” he said.
