A sexy lethal weapon. Ditto—with more dangerous curves. Vampire Council of Ethics Book Three Kenoe Hatsept is in a quandary. The handsome elite Seeker spent years training for a single burning Revenge. Now that the object of his attention has been brought to justice, what’s next? Japan, the one place that has always called to him, sounds like the perfect place to relax, search his soul and plan out the rest of his life. Instead he finds his head, and his hands, full of a woman who’s sharper than she appears on the surface…in more ways than one. And she’s hip deep in trouble. Shinju Maruyama just wants to keep her profile low and go about her business. But the long-toothed people just don’t want to let her keep her family secrets. It’ll take all her skill with her brain and her blades to change their minds. There’s something strange and irresistible about Kenoe, and it scares the hell out of her. But she just can’t seem to shake him. For Kenoe, endangering his life to help her bring the bad guys to heel is easy. Revealing his true nature to her risks far more—his heart. This title contains scenes of kick-buttery, vampire smack-downs and graphic sex, including but not limited to hot ninja love and culinary orgasms.

My review, this is how I see it. Another good vampire and human mate story, by T.J. Michaels. Elite Seeker Kenoe Hatsept while on vacation feels the mate bond towards Shinju Maruyama, a teacher on a field trip with her class. While on vacation Kenoe stumbles across a man moving at vampire speed, but not a vampire and not a rogue. He calls into Alaan to inform him. Shinju is very attracted to Kenoe. However, she will not allow herself to become involved with him because of who her brother is and what he does.

Take about six degrees of separation, Kimora, a human from Kenoe's brother's harem is his mate's cousin, her brother and his second is consorting with vampires and a former colleague of Dr. Carin. As Kenoe convinces Shinju to go with him to Montana, she learns that he is a vampire and it does not go well.

Can Kenoe have the love that he desires, even though he thought it was not in the cards for him?

Hot, hot, hot

The heat levels just keep getting higher and so does the action. In this story we have someone from the past making waves in Japan three years after he ran out of San Diego. Now he is peddling tainted serum to humans and it's going to directly impact a Seekers life. That by itself is enough to involve the VCoE.

Smart women and hot men. Warriors both male and female, vampires, bonded mates, and sex. This book has everything you would expect from T.J and this series. I especially enjoy that the women are independent, smart and not dependent on the alpha males.

Vampire Council of Ethics Book Three

Kenoe Hatsept is in a quandary. The handsome elite Seeker spent years training for a single burning goal: Revenge. Now that the object of his attention has been brought to justice, what's next? Japan, the one place that has always called to him, sounds like the perfect place to relax, search his soul and plan out the rest of his life. Instead he finds his hands, and his head, full of a woman who's sharper than she appears on the surface in more ways than one.

And she's hip deep in trouble.

Shinju Maruyama just wants to keep her profile low and go about her business. But the long-toothed people just don't want to let her keep her family secrets. It'll take all her skill with her brain and her blades to change their minds. There's something strange and irresistible about Kenoe, and it scares the hell out of her. But she just can't seem to shake him.

For Kenoe, endangering his life to help her bring the bad guys to heel is easy. Revealing his true nature to her risks far more than his health—his heart.
