My top favorite reads for February have to be Cynthia Eden's, Die For Me:
Blurb: She thought her fiancĂ© was the perfect man—until he turned out to be the perfect killer…
Katherine
Cole is running for her life, desperate to escape the Valentine
Killer—so-called because he stabs his victims through the heart and
leaves them holding a telltale single red rose. Still he tracks her to
New Orleans and begins carving a bloody path to her door. But this time,
Katherine refuses to run any farther. This time, she’ll do anything to
stop the madman she once loved, even trust the sexy cop promising to
keep her safe…
Detective Dane Black never lets his emotions interfere with his job, even as the Valentine Killer surfaces in New Orleans to stalk his prey. But when Dane agrees to protect the killer’s ex-fiancĂ©e, Katherine Cole, he can’t ignore the passion kindling between them. After a single unforgettable night binds them body and soul, Dane knows he won’t rest until Katherine is safe in his arms—and the Valentine Killer is dead.

Lara Adrian's Edge of Dawn: Blurb:
Twenty years after First Dawn - the morning
that followed a blood-soaked night where Mankind learned that vampires
lived among them - wars and skirmishes continue. Peace between humans
and the Breed seems elusive, but the Order and their allies will not
rest until it is won. For Mira, raised with the Order from the time she
was a child and now the formidable captain of her own team of warriors,
the fight is personal. War with mankind has cost her a great deal -
the life of someone she loved dearly.
Vowed to avenge his death, Mira blazes into every battle like a Valkyrie - until an unexpected encounter with a rebel leader brings her face-to-face with a startling truth, and a betrayal that will cut through her every defence... straight to the core of the wounded woman whose faith has never been more tested, nor her heart more deeply torn.
