title: Overbite
author: Cabot, Meg
description: Meena Harper has a special gift, but it's only now that anyone's ever appreciated it. The Palatine Guard -- a powerful secret demon-hunting unit of the Vatican -- has hired her to work at their new branch in Lower Manhattan. With Meena's ability to predict how everyone she meets will die, the Palatine finally has a chance against the undead.
  
  Sure, her ex-boyfriend was Lucien Anton­escu, son of Dracula, the prince of darkness. But that was before he (and their relationship) went up in flames. Now Meena's sworn off vampires for good . . . at least until she can prove her theory that just because they've lost their souls doesn't mean demons have lost the ability to love.
  
  Meena knows convincing her co-workers -- including her partner, Über-demon-hunter Alaric Wulf -- that vampires can be redeemed won't be easy . . . especially when a deadly new threat seems to be endangering not just lives of the Palatine, but Meena's friends and family as well.
  
  But Meena isn't the Palatine's only hope. Father Henrique -- aka Padre Caliente -- New York City's youngest, most charming priest, has also been assigned to the case.
  
  So why doesn't Meena -- or Alaric -- trust him?
  
  As she begins unraveling the truth, Meena finds her loyalties tested, her true feelings laid bare . . . and temptations she never even imagined existed impossible to resist.
  
  This time, Meena may finally have bitten off more than she can chew.
