Elle is thrilled to spend a month minding the beautiful Gillespie property. Over an hour's drive from the nearest town, the aging mansion is ideal for someone seeking solitude. But as she explores her new home, Elle makes a startling discovery: there's a graveyard nestled deep in the woods, containing a generation of the house's residents...all who died the same year.

In the city of Solantha, mages rule absolute, with shifters considered second-class citizens and humans something in between. No one outside the mage families are allowed to have magic, and anyone born with it must agree to have it stripped from them to avoid execution. Sunaya Baine, a shifter-mage hybrid, has managed to keep her unruly magic under wraps for the last 24 years.

Seraph Black used to think that she was prepared for anything. She could last days without eating and she always walked away from the violent altercations with her father relatively unharmed. She survived working at the club and the drive to school every day in her mother’s rust-bucket of a car… but it all changed when Noah and Cabe came bulldozing into her life, careless of the precious secrets they picked apart in their quest to take over her world.

Seraph Black has endured a vicious stalker, a change of schools, a bonding, a triple-murder, and more than her fair share of uncomfortable situations; but it seems like the world isn’t done with her yet. The messenger is back with a systematic vengeance that knocks her flat, and not even her self-proclaimed secret-keepers are prepared for how far he is willing to go to get what he wants.

Acius, the darkest fallen angel in the world, knows what I am. And he wants me to be his queen, to be his puppet. He’ll stop at nothing, which leaves me with only one choice. Kill him. Normally, my prey run from me. But he’s the hunter too. When he delivers word of his plan to destroy Magic’s Bend with an enormous serpent, it’s obviously a trap meant to ensnare me. But I have no choice. To save my town, I must skirt the edge of death. I must outrun him and outwit him, or we will all lose our homes, our lives. Everything.

Life has gotten a bit dicey, lately. Which is a major understatement. My normal gig as a demon slayer turns extra deadly when a group of them attacks my home. I manage to take them out, but not before it’s too late. My sister and I are hit by the deadly fire veins curse. We have only days to find a cure, so we’ve got to split up to cover more ground. I’m lucky to have access to Declan, one of the most powerful fallen angels in the world. Not to mention, one of the hottest. One that I’m falling for faster than I like.

A race against time.... There’s no rest for the wicked. Or for demon slayers. I’m both, so things have been busy. The sort of busy where I spend all my time trying not to get killed or discovered for what I really am- a Dragon Blood with the deadly power to create new magic. When a mysterious bomb goes off in my town and my closest friends are turned to stone, it becomes a race against the clock to stop the demon who is still at large.

The cat is out of the bag, and everyone learns that Callyn is the next alpha queen. She gains a friend in Catori Na'Estse, a girl who was also wronged by Kelsey. Callyn has officially claimed all of her mates and has shifted, gaining some new abilities along the way. Soon, they realize there are people who don't want to see her ascend to the throne. They will stop at nothing to make sure she doesn't take her rightful place as alpha queen. After almost losing her life, Callyn realizes just how far some people will go for power, greed, and jealousy.

I need answers about my past and my magic. But more than anything, I need answers about Drakon, the first and most powerful vampire. He’s my fated mate, and I want to kiss him as much as I want to kill him.

I thought I could trust my memories. I was wrong. A spell has made me forget who I am. But there are two things I do know: I'm the fated mate of the first and most powerful vampire, Drakon, and I'm the Daughter of the Arcane Order. I don't know what the Arcane Order is, but it's already led to one kidnapping attempt that I barely escaped. It’s also linked to a plot to kill hundreds of werewolves. It’s up to me to save them, but I can only do it with Drakon’s help.

They say I am a queen. They say I married a monster. That I did so willingly. They say he cannot die, that he does not age. That, together, we rule a ravaged world. They say I used to be one of them, but now I am a traitor. They say many things, all which I cannot remember, but.... I fear what they say is true. Then there is what they don't say, what I see in their eyes - the king terrifies them. He cannot be stopped. And, most worrisome of all.... He is coming for me.

Lore releases me to help defeat the evil that is devouring our kingdom, but it's going to be a dangerous battle. My only chance is to get my magic back, but that's easier said than done.

For centuries, my kind was thought to be extinct. We aren't, but I'm the only one. I was chosen for reasons that I don't understand, but I'm going to have to prove myself worthy when madness overtakes my species. It's up to me to save them, and I'm going to need Lachlan's help. I still can't allow myself to fall for the Alpha werewolf who is my mate, but that's not stopping me.

She’s a martyr. A myth. A ghost. A legend. She’s my soulmate and my captive, my conscience and my wrath. I love her too much to let her die; I fear her too much to wake her from her slumber. She’s mine. And now she’s gone. He’s unnatural. Undying. Unethical. Unstoppable. He’s the keeper of lies and lost souls. Mine slipped through his clutches. I am his wife, his queen, the love of his very long life. And soon, I will be his executioner.

Life is full of good and bad. Good - I've rescued my sister. Bad? - We're being hunted by the Rebel Gods, powerful beings who are determined to kill us - and cause the end of days. So yeah, that's real bad....

Soon, I’m swept up into an insane world of wealth and magic that I had no idea existed.
