California - Present Day

Chelle is a new kind of vampire, different and stronger than any before her. But these differences scare her, and she just wants to find out about the magic that created her. To do that, she needs to find a key, broken into three and spread amongst different supernatural groups for safekeeping. While searching for one third of the key in a werewolf stronghold, Chelle suddenly gets her soul back, all thanks to the werewolf alpha, Gunnar - her new mate.

Gunnar has been alpha of the Forkbeard pack for millennia, and he's thankful he's finally found his mate. Though, her being of a different species does make life a little difficult, since werewolves tend to put non-werewolf mates to death. But maybe it's time for the Forkbeard pack to come into the modern day. All Gunnar wants is to protect his mate, but her quest to find the three parts of the Alexandria key keeps putting her in danger. Now Gunnar and Chelle need to learn that they are stronger together than they could ever be on their own.

The fourth book in the Last True Vampire series introduces readers to yet another supernatural group. We've had vampires, berserkers, witches, and more, and now we get to add werewolves to the mix. Kate Baxter continues to be a fresh voice in the paranormal romance world, with her new twists on old favorites. This series is fun, exciting, and on a roll.

The characters really make this story. The action and suspense are well done and intense, but it's Chelle and Gunnar that take this book from interesting to engaging. Together, they are both explosive and entertaining. Chelle's sense of humor and Gunnar's arguments with his inner wolf make them feel incredibly real and genuine. Or as real and genuine as a vampire and a werewolf can get.

THE UNTAMED VAMPIRE follows THE LAST TRUE VAMPIRE (JUN 2015), THE WARRIOR VAMPIRE (DEC 2015), and THE DARK VAMPIRE (MAY 2016). Up next is THE LOST VAMPIRE, coming August 2017!
