Blood Bonds Blurb (The Progeny Series #2)
“Forever. For always. For
eternity.”
The ties that bind two
hearts are powerful. For Ascher Rousseau and Shauna McCutchin, it’s more than
just a blood bond. Their union is that of vampire legend. Their love is a
predestined prophecy foretold centuries ago.
It’s a week before Ascher
and Shauna's sealing and the couple is making final preparations for their
eternity. But Ascher's ex has other plans. Ursula is hell-bent on
revenge—revenge fueled by lover's scorn and her father's death—and she
begins breeding a fresh army of newborn darklings to do her bidding.
When Ursula finds a
new weapon—an ally with the capability to dismantle the Rousseau clan—
Ascher and Shauna's bond is tested and they must stand together against
Ursula or lose each other for eternity.

About Ashlynne:
Ashlynne
Laynne has always had a soft spot in her heart for vampires but grew tired of
the garlic fearing, sun-loathing creatures of old. An avid horror movie fan,
she tends to enjoy media and music that is of a younger, more eclectic nature.
This was the catalyst for her writing The Progeny. The vampire/witch pairing is
unique and different when most books pair vampires with werewolves.
Ashlynne
loves writing on the edge and teetering between the erotica and romance genres,
and thinks of Ascher and Shauna as the wicked, damned version of Romeo and
Juliet. She is currently working on books three and four of her Progeny Series,
book one of her upcoming Rocker Series, and an untitled novella WIP. In her
spare time, she enjoys cooking, reading and spending time with her family. She
juggles the hats of wife, mother, full time employee and part-time writer,
hoping to write full time one day soon.
Ashlynne
lives in North Carolina with her husband and teenage son.
About The Progeny Series
At its
core, The Progeny is simply a story about a man and woman who fall in love, and
the fact that he’s a half-blood (half-human, half vampire) and she’s a Wiccan
human are secondary factors. When we meet Ascher, he’s grumpy. Frankly, who
could blame him? He’s engaged to seal to Ursula—a cold and careless vampire who
wants nothing more than to get her hands on a bloodstone— and he feels
conflicted about his existence.
All of that changes when he meets Shawnette
McCutchin. She’s beautiful, intriguing and possesses some of the most potent
blood that he’s ever smelled. A war immediately begins inside Ascher. He craves
Shauna’s blood just as much as he craves her body and the closer they get, the
harder it is for him to control his urges. After Ascher calls off the sealing
to Ursula, the trouble begins. His family’s peaceful period ends when Ursula’s
army attacks the Rousseaus.
This
series is about a family of which we’ve never seen before. They share a common
mortal and immortal bloodline but loyalty is the thread that holds this clan
together. Once you become a part of this family, the others will risk their
lives to protect you. We see examples of this throughout the journey. There is
no shortage of romance, steam and surprises in The Progeny Series but these
books are for adults and contain adult sensuality, language and themes.
Book one
of the Progeny Series—The Progeny—re-released on May 7, 2012. The “revamp” is a
second edition full of extended scenes, new details and tighter editing. Book
two—Blood Bonds—will release summer of 2012.

Teaser From the Upcoming Blood Bonds:
Ascher looked down into her
sorrowful eyes and saw the raw emotion reflecting from them. He imagined that
if he were able to cry he’d have cried a river over their loss. Sometimes, he
wished he could cry to release some of the rage that he held pinned inside of
him. Losing that baby cut him deep, like a knife slicing his heart into
millions of pieces. He didn’t know anything could ever wound him so much, and
yet the only thing that could hurt him more would be the loss of Shauna.
Ursula had it coming for her
part in their misery. That bitch was on borrowed time and the hourglass was
almost empty. He shoved down the growl begging to surface from his depths,
until it rumbled and burned hot in his belly. Ascher embraced his love again,
strumming his fingers through her hair and thinking about his revenge. The
telltale pulsing deep inside him finally made it to his eyes, tinting the lush
green landscape blood red with his ire. He would get satisfaction for the
shedding of Rousseau blood.
A wave of sadness crested
within him and replaced the anger, sweeping through him like an emotional tidal
wave. He held her tighter to comfort her and hide the rage burning in his eyes,
as his right hand joined hers to caress her vacant stomach. They sat seeking
the comfort of one another’s embrace, the only sounds their breathing and
Shauna’s muffled cries against his chest as the warm wind rustled in the trees
surrounding them.
When the crimson left his
sight, he brought his hand under her chin lifting her face to meet his
heavyhearted gaze. Placing his hand over her stomach again, he whispered, “We
will make another life, Shauna, when you’re ready.”
