Blurb for VAMPIRE MOST WANTED:
For Basha Argeneau, anything is better than facing her
estranged family. Even hiding out in sweltering southern California. But when a
sexy immortal in black shows up determined to bring her back to the clan,
she'll do anything to keep far, far away from the past she can't outrun.
Marcus Notte isn't here to play games—especially not with someone as crazy as the infamous blonde. Asked by Lucian Argeneau to bring her back for questioning, Marcus is determined to carry out Lucian's request—no matter how the seductive little mind-reading vamp feels about it.
Basha doesn't mind fighting fire with fire, especially with a hot immortal involved. But if he wants to take her away, he'll have to catch her first…

Known as Divine to all of her carnie friends, Basha Argeneau has been hiding out for so long that she doesn’t know any other way of life. Fearing that her Uncle Lucian wants her head for being rogue, she fears she’s been discovered when one of his spies shows up working at the carnival. After being bashed on the head and told this by Abaddon, the only man who’s been a constant in her life and who she’s always believed to be committed to keeping her son safe, Divine plans to escape the carnival and start again somewhere far away. The last thing she expects is to discover is that the spy might be her life mate.
Marcus Notte is doing
Lucian Argeneau a favor. He's searching for a woman who might possibly be Lucian’s
niece, Basha. This mysterious Immortal went missing as a young girl and has since been reported as
rogue, and possibly the same woman who helped the villainous no-fanger, Leonius,
escape the hotel in Toronto where Rogue Hunters shot him with an arrow in the
heart. Marcus immediately realizes he can’t read Divine, the woman suspected of being Basha, and when he notices his
appetite for food and his lust for her now plague him, he fears the woman he
may have found, and could possibly sentence her to death, might just be his life mate.
I loved the Rogue Hunter
novels, the darker side of the Argeneau series, not only because I adored the
hunters themselves, but because we got to discover the evil side of the
Immortals. We met no-fangers, edentates, and learned about Leonius, his sons,
and first learned of Basha Argeneau. So when I learned that this would be Basha’s
story, I was thrilled with a return to the dangerous side of the Immortals, and
I wasn’t disappointed.
VAMPIRE MOST WANTED by
Lynsay Sands was everything I expected from an Argeneau novel with the added
bonus of it being a story featuring two Immortals discovering their life mates
without the mess of having to change a mortal, although, I loved how Lynsay
integrated the history of the Immortals into the story through Basha’s lack of
knowledge. I was a bit disappointed that Marcus and Basha didn’t share dream
sex though – it was always a fun part of the story. But the danger that follows them
as they try to learn the truth of Basha’s past and the fact that we are treated
to appearances by Vincent and Jackie (A BITE TO REMEMBER), and Tiny and
Mirabeau (VAMPIRE VALENTINE, Bitten By Cupid Anthology) as well as Lucian, of
course, was well worth the loss – in this one anyway.
VAMPIRE MOST WANTED is
fast-paced, action-packed, and as always with a Lynsay Sands novel, filled with
sexy vampires, humor, Immortal history, and as with any of the series where a
rogue is involved, danger. I do have to say that if you’re up-to-date on the
series, the characters you meet will be familiar and the story will make more
sense, whereas if you’re new to the series, you might do well to take a look at
the Family Trees that Lynsay provides her readers. If you’re interested, feel
free to check them out by clicking either of the following links for the
appropriate family – Argeneau Family & Notte Family – both of whom are
featured in this twentieth novel, and surely one of my favorites now.
I highly recommend
VAMPIRE MOST WANTED, an Argeneau novel by Lynsay Sands to anyone who is already
a fan of this amazing series. But if you haven’t tried this series, this one
might not be the one with which to start. However, if you’re willing to dare it
and would like a taste of sexy Immortal vampires, who always give you a sexy
ride through a world where nanos keep you young, virile, beautiful, and hunky
gorgeous, and where fun is always included when you meet the best characters in
paranormal romance, then yes, you’ll want to read VAMPIRE MOST WANTED.
Happy Reading Everyone!
VAMPIRE MOST WANTED, an
Argeneau novel by Lynsay Sands, Avon Romance, release date – February 18, 2014,
