They say weddings are the best places to meet someone. Yeah, right. In my putrid green bridesmaid dress, I just wanted to disappear. But I saw the best man looking at me. And then his friend looked, too. And then his friend as well. Was I crazy? But it was true. Mason, Kane, and Tyler were definitely interested, sending hot vibes my way. But it’s wrong.

As they do, a group of supernaturals emerges from the woods, battered and frightened. They’ve been attacked by a madman called "the Hunter" who has returned after a long time away.

Little does Paul know that at that moment, the Hunter may prove the demise of himself, his supernatural companions, and the House of the Talismancer.

Then he discovered they truly do exist—and it’s his task to protect them. After a beautiful woman who claims to be hunted by dangerous men catches a ride, his life changes forever. He’s taken to a strange and magical mansion, told that he’s its new owner, and that he has the power of Talismancy: he can enchant objects, places, and people, infusing them with magical power.

Throw in a couple of gargoyles and me unlocking an ancient path to insane amounts of magic, and you have my story. Be careful, though, as it's not for the prude at heart.

Can you love and hate the same person? I fell in love too fast, too young. I made decisions I thought would protect the ones I love. Now I'm hated for them. Skull is the love of my life.

Jason Richards is the Lifebringer. After being bitten by a vampire and left for dead, Jason awakens as a Ferin, reborn with supernatural abilities unlike any other. While most obtain a single ability, Jason is given several, and his power continues to grow with each passing conquest. But there is more to being the Lifebringer than Jason knows.

The dark one has risen, and all hell is threatening to explode upon us. But hope is not lost, as the Elven-Trinity has been restored.

Braire with her ability to summon monsters. All of them are powerful and deadly. With them on my side, we will charge in head-first to take on the enemy, and might just stand a chance.

As we search for the third Sister, our quest pits us against an obsidian hell-hound, more golems, and a greater power than even the elves know how to deal with. Oh, and we might find ourselves a dragon pet along the way.
