Rogue Hybrid #1
Marked By A Bite
Alternate cover edition of ASIN B07TD1HR7G
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?
*** This is Book One in a multiple part series! The first book flows right into the second, which will be published very soon!

MARKED BY A BITE has earned a place on my bookshelf, right next to Lynsay Sands. Hands down, Ryn and Luke are one of my favorite couples in a long time!
I came across MARKED BY A BITE in a Goodreads group by chance.
Ryn is a believable character. She is a modern college student with relationship fears because of a recent breakup. But it is her easy attitude and smarts that won me over. Usually, I find myself yelling at a character not to fall head over heels for the guy. Not to lose herself and everything she has worked at being. Not to run downhill into a cheese grater. Ryn is a girl after my own heart. She has major feelings for Luke, but her reasons for not rushing into that good night are valid. Sane. And she isn't allowing her feelings to cloud her judgment when danger is close by.
Luke is harder to pinpoint. I tried to find a box and label, but couldn't. That was refreshing. He isn't pompous or pushy. And yet, he isn't a pushover. He is sexy and vulnerable in all the right ways (the broken glass scene, ah-hem), and Padgett leaves a lot to be explored in the series. There is much the reader is left wanting to know about Luke, like why he is allowing two ass hats to run a clave that obviously belongs to him in some way.
I will definitely read every future book in this new series, and anything else that Padgett has to offer.
