Hunting His Vampire Mate
(2024)(The fourth book in the Blood Bonded Mates series)
A novel by Jay Castle
DANNY
I’ve been hunting monsters for as long as I can remember, and for the last five years, Michael’s been by my side. He’s not just my partner—he’s my best friend. Things were simple. Then, four months ago, I thought we were both about to die. And I blurted out something I hadn’t even admitted to myself: I’m in love with him.
I always thought I was straight but there’s no denying that Michael is my person. He always has been.
Except he doesn’t feel the same. Worse, now it seems like he’s planning to quit hunting. And every moment I have left with him is a reminder that he’s about to walk out of my world for good.
MICHAEL
Five years ago, vampires took everything from me. The only thing that’s kept me together since then is Danny. He’s my home, even if he doesn’t know it. I’d do anything for him. But I can’t allow myself to love him. Not like he wants.
The last time I let someone in, I lost everything. Maybe I’m the bad guy for pretending like nothing’s changed between us, but Danny’s confession is the one thing I can’t deal with. I can’t let myself be weak again. I won’t.
But every day that passes, I see the hurt in his eyes and it’s getting worse. And I know that if I don’t figure this out soon, I’m going to lose him for good.
Hunting His Vampire Mate is an 82,000-word friends to lovers MM paranormal romance featuring bi-awakening, fated mates, found family, spicy scenes, magic, and at least one deeply irritated vampire who has had quite enough nonsense for one night. This is book 4 of the Blood Bonded Mates series and there will be plenty of cameos of the couples from previous books and, as always, an HEA between the main characters with no cliffhanger. This novel contains strong language, explicit sexual scenes between two adult men, mentions of death/loss of a loved one, demisexual representation, displays of grief and devotion, and the consensual blood drinking one might expect to see in a male-male vampire romance. This book is intended for mature audiences.
