Blurb: Guilt-ridden after the massacre of his family, Isaac Salvatore turned to binge drinking to escape the pain. Now twenty-four years old, Isaac is a recovering alcoholic woefully out of practice in the magical arts, leaving his fire affinity hanging on the edge of disaster. After a month of rehab, he returns to Beacon Hill and his family, determined to remain sober, learn to control his magic, and figure out a plan for his life that doesn't involve drinking.
Constantine Batiste is the oldest, most powerful vampire in the city. Born in ancient Gaul, the bastard son of a Celtic king, his long life has been shrouded in tragedy and horrors. Recent mistakes have left him wary and determined to guard his clan from all foes. When two of his clan members fall victim to an ancient evil, he summons the Necromancer of Boston for aid. Accompanying his older brother to the Tower is the handsome young fire mage once wounded by Constantine's arrogance, and their encounter reignites an attraction that burns within both Constantine and Isaac.
The answer to who is targeting the vampires of Boston is buried in the dark, early days of Constantine's transition to an immortal life. Isaac finds himself saddled with a painful insight into the evil cutting a swath through the supernatural population of Boston. While his brother, Angel, takes over the hunt to find and stop the threat to the city, Isaac struggles to find a balance between helping his brother and finding his own purpose and place in the world, free from his brother's shadow.
Falling in love wasn't part of his plan, but mastering the flames that burn between him and Constantine soon becomes the most important thing in his life, even as an ancient evil seeks to destroy them.

Title: Carry On
Series: (Simon Snow Series Book 1)
Author: Rainbow Rowell
Length: 529 pages
Publisher: St. Martin's Griffin (October 6, 2015)
Genre: Young Adult / Urban Fantasy /
Notes:
Blurb:Simon Snow is the worst Chosen One who's ever been chosen.
That's what his roommate, Baz, says. And Baz might be evil and a vampire and a complete git, but he's probably right.
Half the time, Simon can't even make his wand work, and the other half, he starts something on fire. His mentor's avoiding him, his girlfriend broke up with him, and there's a magic-eating monster running around, wearing Simon's face. Baz would be having a field day with all this, if he were here -- it's their last year at the Watford School of Magicks, and Simon's infuriating nemesis didn't even bother to show up.
Carry On is a ghost story, a love story and a mystery. It has just as much kissing and talking as you'd expect from a Rainbow Rowell story - but far, far more monsters.

Publisher:
Genre: Romance / Paranormal / Vampire / Gay /
Notes: Each book in this series are about different characters. I'm going to guess they can be read as standalones.
One Determined Soldier…
An Undeniable Love…
Martin is a Soldier in the Vampire Legion. His aristocratic blood sets him apart from his fellow fighters, making his goal to achieve the highest rank of Warrior all the more complex. Through blood and sweat, he’s caught the Warlord’s attention, placing his objective firmly in reach. However, another Warrior has caught his eye, and Martin is determined to prove himself to this male above all others. The heart wants what it wants, and Martin will sacrifice everything to make Merlin his.
Forced into hiding by an enemy who would see him dead, Merlin has led an unassuming life for more than a thousand years. Then the Soldier, Martin, walked into his life, and now Merlin’s sleep is plagued with nightmares that threaten not only him, but the Legion family he would die to protect. Giving in to his desire could conceivably destroy everyone he loves. Not giving in will most certainly destroy what's left of his soul.

Genre: Romance / Paranormal / Vampire / Gay /
Notes:
John is a witch, and as all witches know, vampires are notoriously stupid creatures who only have the power to hurt those who fear them. Besides, he’s under a curse much more frightening than any vampire. Felix’s desperate attempts to impress him annoy John at first, but gradually, they become sort of endearing. Because of his curse, John has pushed everyone in his life away. But Felix can’t be hurt, so there’s no harm in letting him hang around.
Felix is technically dead. John has nothing left to live for. But together, they might have a shot at life.
This dark and witty vampire romance for adults is complete at 100,000 words, with no cliffhanger. Despite some dark twists and turns, it ends with a solid HEA.
