Book 1:Huntress by Amber Argyle
Ashley has been given a choice—run
from the vampires who will stop at nothing to kill her, or become one
of them.
But it doesn’t take Ashley long to
figure out there are much darker and deadlier forces at play than
mere vampires, and more than just Ashley’s life is at stake. All
hell is about to break loose, literally.

Darkness.
Ashley couldn’t
remember a time when she’d been in such total and complete
darkness. In the city, there was always light. She opened her eyes
wider. It didn’t help. Turning into the shower spray, she finished
rinsing the rest of the conditioner from her hair. She kept waiting
for the lights to come back on. They didn’t. “This company
retreat is turning into a disaster,” she mumbled.
“A day
in the mountains!” her boss had said. “Enjoying the solitude and
colors of fall!”
Instead, Ashley had been stuck in a
conference room for ten hours. Turning the water off, she jerked the
shower curtain back and felt around for the towel she’d set on top
of the toilet. She rubbed the rough terry cloth across her
face.
Without the sound of the water, she heard something.
Unconsciously pressing the towel against her chest she listened. Were
those screams?
She padded off of the cold bathroom tile and
onto the carpet of her room, hoping some light would filter in from
the open window. It didn’t. She grabbed the first piece of clothing
her hand touched, a white button up shirt she’d worn to the meeting
today. Without bothering to dry off, she yanked it on and shoved the
buttons through the holes, not really caring if she got them right or
not. The shirt clung to her wet skin as she hiked a pair of jeans
over her damp hips.
Screams were echoing up and down the hall
now. Not ‘you just scared me’ kind of screams, but the terrified,
‘please don’t kill’ me kind of screams. Ashley jerked the hotel
phone out of its cradle. Dead. She stumbled around, trying to
remember where her cell phone was.
“Ashley!” a man’s
voice yelled through her door. “We have to get out of here!
Ashley!”
Josh. The man she’d been dating under her boss’s
nose for months. Ashley ran for the door, but her shin smacked into
the dresser. Clutching her leg and mouthing silent curses, she
hobbled forward. She froze when something thudded against her door. A
mangled scream gurgled to silence. She froze, too terrified to move
or breathe.
