Just before Christmas my life underwent a major change. And I’m not talking about the fact I hit menopause hard—I mean, we're talking night sweats and hormones gone wild. Nope, it was worse than that. I almost died, and would have actually been six feet under if I'd not been transformed into a vampire. You heard me right. At the ripe age of forty-seven, I became a blood-guzzling, sunlight-hating, fanged menace with an insatiable appetite. Thankfully, criminals taste delicious.

The fae spend their entire lives searching for their true mate. But me? I know who my mine is. And I don't want him. My name is Astrid. I'm a fae—a seer and a healer. Not much scares me. But him? That's the darkness I'm never going to let catch me.

When the magic on the mansion shattered—so did my heart. I became a dragon rider on the brink of death at the hands of the sun, but I won’t let any man break me again. The dynamics of the merciless world I was brought up in have changed, and just when I thought I had exposed all of the lies…one more revelation pushes me to the edge.

It turns out the last of the dragon rider fae have been locked in a trap, a mansion with no doors, no way to leave for five hundred years, and I’m the first fae to enter. The dragon fae riders know nothing of the world outside or the vampyres who have taken over in their absence, and most don’t trust me.

Recently traded to the Grizzlies, I’m struggling to find my place on the team. I’ve changed coasts, moved away from my best friend, from the Breakers who became family, and. . . I’m alone. And it’s my birthday. A fact that everyone around me seems to have forgotten. Until a knock at the door proves differently. I was in love with Luna when I was a teenager, and now she's on my doorstep, vivacious and beautiful and. . . holding a piece of paper I barely remember. One that says we’ll get married. . . And I think I’m just insane enough to say yes.

A Story of Mates and Temptation is the third book in The Lost Fae Riders Series. This is a full-length fantasy, dragon-rider romance with an enemy who might become a lover, found family, the best romance tropes, and a main character who loves reading almost as much as you.

They say that messing with fate is a dangerous game. But I chose to play it. When I find out that my fated mate is the warrior that hates me and my kind, I make a decision; I hide the bond. Big mistake. Now I have to watch as he gives himself to everyone. Everyone except me. And when the truth comes out, will our worlds ever be the same again?

I return home from college to a nightmare, discovering my parents plan to marry me off. Rather than being forced into a loveless marriage, I grab my cat and embark on an adventurous journey to the Wild West. I may be trying to find myself, but what I find instead is the handsome Jack Graysen. Or rather, he finds me.

What do you do when the person you are bonded to eternally has betrayed you? Simple. You make his life hell. As the Shadow Prince’s secrets finally unravel, I’m left scrambling to pick up the pieces. Hiding in another kingdom might fix all my problems, right? My mate will be left in the darkness this time. I hope those shadows choke him. Let the games begin.

Faye St. James has only ever been my shy, reclusive next-door neighbor. Until her house burns down and I find out that it’s not just her home that catches fire. Underneath all that shy is a woman who’s smart and passionate and…everything I’ve ever wanted. But my life is complicated. I’m on the road for half the year playing with the Grizzlies and I have an ex-wife who just won’t go away. Clearly, I’m in no position to fall in love. Only…my heart seems to have a different plan. One that means never letting Faye go.

He’s the Bane of my existence. My fated mate. The timing is all wrong, but fate doesn't wait for anyone. I’m searching for my missing brother, but Bane finds me first. He doesn’t give me a choice: I’m his, and now, so is my mission. When our worlds collide, our past changes our future. He's the exiled Demon Prince. And for me, he will become the king.

Protecting Everly meant putting myself in Kraken's war path, but I couldn't care less. The only thing he asked of us was to stay away from her, to let her have a normal life . . . but how could I do that when I knew the man she was fooling around with? He was no good for her, and I knew his track record. He would ruin Everly like he ruined every woman before her, and I wasn't going to let it happen. It didn't matter that the club was going through hell, that we were in the middle of the biggest battle we'd had in ages.

Everyone makes mistakes in life, and mine was letting "the one" go. We wanted different things and neither one of us would sacrifice at the time. Our demise wasn't for a lack of love. We loved each other so much. Unfortunately, life was pulling us in two different directions. Then, fifteen years pass by and I'm putting in my coffee order like any other morning, and I see her. She's aged like fine wine and looks more beautiful than ever.

I was minding my business drinking when the boys when I decided to take a smoke break and saw the unthinkable—a man had his hand wrapped around Astrid's neck. She wasn't just the VP's daughter in my eyes. She was the kind of woman who should have a man worship her, in all her curvaceous glory. I wasted no time teaching that sorry son of a bi*** a lesson. That was the moment I knew she was mine, even if I knew there would be issues with her father.
