My name is Coran Burke. I'm unique among the fighters in the Black Squad. I'm more than human. My new assignment takes me to Dassuria, on the trail of an alien dragon lord. To beat him, I'll have to dig deep into my own past. At his side is a woman with deep entanglements in his dealings. Despite my misgivings, I can't get her out of my head. She's unearthed feelings I'd long ago abandoned and stirred something in me like no one has ever before done. She should be my enemy, but she appears to be the key to my survival - a puzzle I'm hesitant to solve.

Former Immortal Ops Agent Wheeler Summersbee has spent most of his life on the run from his own government. When he’d agreed to be a living test subject in their quest to genetically engineer the perfect super-soldiers, he never dreamed he’d come out the other side of the testing a gargoyle-vampire hybrid who craved blood and had a serious allergy to sunlight. So, when he finds himself trapped in what feels like eternal darkness, he abandons all hope. That is, until he hears the melodic voice of a mysterious woman. Could it be she’s his someone special?

In Vegas, a lot can happen in 24 hours. What do you get when you mix a rock band as hot as Reckless Beat, women strong enough to capture several of the bad boys' hearts, and a bet that sparks a competitive streak? Boundaries will be pushed, alcohol will be abused, and loads of sarcasm will be shared. Once the games are over, it's time to make a commitment. But love in the limelight is never easy. The past is trying to catch up with the present, and the pressure may be too hard to handle.

Meet the bad boys of Molly Riot. They'll pluck your heartstrings with their irresistible charms - and rock your deepest desires in ways you've never imagined. North - I was a rock star in the most successful band in Miami. I had money, fame and millions of female fans; and then my world came crashing down. Julian - You know, I've gotta say, no woman has ever had such a pull on me. Fran and I can't keep our hands off each other, but the problem is, we can't let anyone else in either of our bands know about our little tryst.

Luca dragged me from hell and delivered me to salvation. At least that's what I thought. I hoped this would be a new life. A fresh start. But the pain followed. I'm certain the monsters did, too. I'm told it's paranoia. Trauma. PTSD. Nobody believes my truth. But they'll soon learn. We all will.

I'm the bassist in Molly Riot, one of the biggest bands in the Miami area, and I'm surrounded by female fans night and day. This isn't like me, but I'm falling hard for this chick, Sophie, the hot new bartender at my all-time favorite local dive bar. Problem is, our drummer, Mark, has his eye on her as well. Normally this wouldn't matter, but there's just something about this girl that's different. I can tell already that I don't want this to be just another one-night stand.
