"Action packed story of the military versus vampires!"
Major Ursula Carlson has been training with an elite group
of vampires to prove they can work well with the US
Military. When the military tried using vampire soldiers,
the man they picked to head the squad was not suitable and
attempted to stage his own coup d'état, so now they're
trying this option. Ursula has learned a lot about
vampires while honing them into a working squad. There's
Elder Turi, who even though he creeped Ursula out by
reading her mind when they first met, is still someone
Ursula adores. And then there's Solomon, a man Ursula
would love to get to know in the biblical sense, along
with the rest of her squad. After completing a successful
mission saving children at a daycare center from a group
of ex-military, Ursula is shocked when her commanding
officer tells her she has a new boss and a different
mission. The new mission is to wipe out the vampires as
they are now seen as a threat. Her CO is talking genocide
here. Growing up in the foster care system, Ursula has
done many things she's not proud of, but her new mission
is something she just can't do. Not if she wants to live
with herself anyway. So Ursula gets in her car with a
packed duffel bag already in the trunk, along with some
cash, and calls Solomon and tells him what the military is
planning, thus ending her military career. Will Solomon and Ursula be able to get all the vampires
out of the United States before the military kills them
all? What of the attraction between them? After all,
Solomon has lived a long time, what could he possibly see
in Ursula? Who is behind the plot to rid the world of
vampires? BLOOD SEDUCTION is a very different vampire story. J.M.
Jeffries pulls us into the action with the very first page
and keeps thing moving throughout the entire story. We get
to meet all kinds of vampires in this story as well—
everything from college professors and artists to
revolutionaries. With Ursula's childhood, making something
of herself is very important to her, but it doesn't take
her long to make up her mind to throw her lot in with the
vampires and simply trash her career. This story does deal
with some heavy moral issues, not just the proposed
genocide either. If you enjoy an action-packed romance,
this story is for you.

The Vampire Nation goes to war with the United States Military. Caught in the crossfire is Major Ursula Carlson, whose attempt to change the military's perspective on the use of vampires in military operations is largely ignored. Since the military feels they can't trust vampires, they intend to destroy them. Denied a promotion to head an elite force, Ursula is on the run for attempting to stop the slaughter. Solomon and a handful of vampires, along with Ursula, are the only ones standing between the human race and the vampire nation.
