Ashley doesn’t want a relationship—with anyone. After her first love tried to kill her after finding out she was a vampire, minding her own business seemed the best bet for survival. Just getting by on a crappy job and hospital blood, she’d also fighting a very strong vampire named Victor who is trying press a mating bond on her. The more she refuses, the more he presses, but she’s long from giving in. When the Center for Paranormal Research and Investigation offers her a job that pays well, Ashley accepts, hoping it’s enough to give her a new start. She soon finds there are more dangerous things than serial killers when she teams up with human telepath, Will Connor.

There was a lot to like in Unclaimed. Ashley keeps a balance of badass and conscience which is always nice in vampire. Some of the fight scenes got a little long (oh and gory, so if you’re not into the occasional eating of guts, maybe pass on this one). The same themes were hit upon often, but they were important themes to both characters so they worked. Ms. Steiger leaves several doors open for a series with this one and I would be very willing to pick up the next tale of Ashley and Will.
