"An arranged marriage, a missing bride, and a father with dark secrets…
Hanna Kang has been an investigator for the Black Lantern Society—an organisation of witches, werewolves, and vampires who work behind the scenes to right wrongs via whatever means necessary—for nigh on three years, and has certainly done her part in bringing society’s “wicked witches” to justice.
So when she and her shapeshifter partner, Ginny Baker, are given the task of babysitting Monica Ashworth, the pampered only child of one of Canberra’s most prominent witches, she looks forward to the change of pace.
But things go very wrong, very fast.
Monica is kidnapped from under their noses, a bridesmaid is murdered, and another goes missing.
As Hanna and Ginny battle to find the two women before they also end up dead, a mysterious stranger steps in to help Hanna—a man who has no life force but who appears as human as she.
A man she is dangerously attracted to.
With the body count mounting and the lies of all those around them beginning to unravel, it soon becomes clear that revenge, not money, is at the heart of it all.
But Monica and her father are not the only ones holding secrets. Hanna has them too… and hers can kill."
"Keep your friends close and your enemies closer…
Bethany Aodhán is not only a reluctant relic hunter for Deva’s Fae Council, but also a major “chess piece” in the latest round of godly games. When a fallen storm goddess tasks her with finding Bia’s Blade—a godly weapon capable of bringing anyone under the control of its wielder—she knows danger will once again stalk her.
As if that was not enough to deal with, the council hands her a second mission—find the person who, with the help of another godly relic, broke into one of the most secure banks in all of England to steal a handful of documents.
It soon becomes clear that the person behind the break-in is after the same thing Beth is—the location of Carla Wilson, the second-in-command of the Ninkilim.
But things become more complicated when she receives confirmation that someone close to her works for the enemy. What she doesn’t know is how far they will go to fulfill their contract.
And whether it really even matters.
Because Carla Wilson has finally had enough of Bethany’s interference, and is now determined to bring her under total control… with the help of Bia’s Blade."
"Can an improbable alliance between human and drakkon save their world from utter destruction?
Princess Bryn Silva never wanted the crown this way.
With her parents dead and Esan’s military devastated, she’s thrust onto a throne she once wanted, but is utterly unprepared to fill.
Worse still, her husband, Damon—heir to the throne of Zephrine—has vanished, leaving her to face the storm alone.
As the gilded riders, hungry to claim Arleeon’s fertile lands as their own, rain death and destruction from their armored birds, the greatest threat to both Bryn and Esan might come from the one man who should be their staunchest ally.
Because Aric Velez—Damon’s father—has returned, and plans to use her inexperience to claim the throne and become the ultimate ruler over all Arleeon. And he doesn’t care what he has to do to see his ambitions realized.
As the losses mount, the race to find a means of defeating their foes becomes ever more desperate. But can the drakkon kin ever hope to win a war when they are so outnumbered?
Or will Bryn be forced to face an impossible choice: sacrifice everything she loves, or watch her kingdom burn."
"The drakkons have joined the battle, but have they the power to help win the war?
Princess Bryn Silva is a Strega witch, gifted with the ability to raise fire and mind speak to animals. It is a gift that helped her win the trust of Kaia—a drakkon queen in the prime of her life.
But the drakkons’ only weapons are tooth and claws, and they are useless against an enemy mounted on armored birds, and who possess weapons capable of eating through scale and stone with equal ease. After an aerie is attacked, the drakkons agree to a desperate alliance and the drakkon kin—a force of Strega witches mounted on drakkon back—is formed.
Despite initial success, Bryn quickly realizes that a handful of kin will never defeat the sheer number of gilded riders amassing off Arleeon’s shores.
The drakkons needed a weapon. They needed fire…
But the gilded riders were not the only danger closing in on Esan, the fortress protecting the eastern gateway into Arleeon. The Mareritt, a warrior race and an ancient enemy, also move on them, armed with weapons eerily similar to those the gilded riders use.
Weapons capable of destroying Esan’s mighty walls.
But the biggest threat of all could be the dangerous secrets being held by Bryn’s husband, Damon Velez, heir to the throne of Zephrine and a man she hadn’t wanted to marry but might well be falling in love with.
A man whose magic could give the drakkons fire, or utterly destroy them all."

"Revenge is a dish best served cold...
When Bethany Aodhán, resident--and reluctant--relic hunter for Deva's Fae Council, is assigned her next task, little does she realize just how many unwanted ghosts it will raise.
The missing relic--Borrhás's Horn--enables the user to raise elements of winter against their enemies. It quickly becomes clear that the Horn is now in the hands of a powerful witch who has very specific targets in mind--everyone involved in the hunt for Agrona's Claws.
As the attacks intensify, and buildings--and people--are frozen and destroyed, Bethany and Mathi Dh¿r-Val, her Elven handler and friend, race to uncover who is behind the attacks and reclaim the Horn.
But the threads of treachery loom closer than either of them realize, weaving around the pixie who pursues her romantically and the dark elf king she wants but cannot have.
As the attacks grow ever more violent, it becomes clear that Bethany is now in their enemy's crosshairs
Can they find the Horn and its wielder in time to not only save Bethany, but an entire city?
Or will winter's icy embrace take them all?"
"Once, they hunted the drakkons to near extinction. Now their survival might well depend on them…
Princess Bryn Silva, the sole child of Esan’s king, is not only soldier-trained but also a Strega witch, gifted with the ability to raise fire and mind speak to animals. After years of tracking the movements of the drakkons, she has formed a tenuous relationship with the biggest of them all—a queen in the prime of her life.
On the eve of Bryn’s unwanted wedding to Damon Valez, heir to the throne of Zephrine and a powerful blood witch, she ventures out to see the drakkons one last time, only to discover the utter destruction of a remote fishing village on the very edges of East Arleeon, with no evidence left behind on who attacked it or why.
Then, on her sea journey home, she senses the mind of an animal unlike any she has ever felt before. It attacks—and sinks—their boat, using weapons made of golden metal feathers that pierce wood and flesh as easily as any sword.
When that same enemy attacks Kaia—the queen she has been following—and her drakklings, a desperate alliance based on the need for survival and revenge is formed.
But can a Strega witch, who relies on the strength of her flesh to control and destroy with flame, and a drakkon, whose only weapons are tooth and claws, defeat an enemy that is mounted on armored birds and who possess weapons capable of eating through stone and skin with equal ease?
Will the husband she hadn’t wanted help defend the city, or will the secrets he keeps only add to the danger they face?
Can Esan, the mighty fortress that has protected the Eastern regions of Arleeon for eons, survive, or will it finally fall…. and take the drakkons with them?"
"Two ancient vampires and a centuries-long war. Their final battlefield? The Faelan Werewolf reservation…
With a wedding to plan and a future mother-in-law who hates her, the last thing Lizzie Grace needs is two psycho vampires rampaging through Castle Rock.
But as their battle draws ever closer to her circle of friends, Lizzie finds herself unwillingly drawn deeper and deeper into their conflict.
Then one vampire does the unthinkable, and Lizzie goes to war.
Can she save everyone she loves and finally get her happy ending with Aiden?
Or will darkness forever claim the reservation and consume them all?"
"A new relic hunt. A new evil…
Resident Relic Hunter for Deva’s Fae Council is a title Bethany Aodhán never wanted, but it isn’t like she has a choice. And in truth, the appointment might just aid her quest to find her mother’s murderers—because at least one of those responsible is a member of the council, and getting access to their records could give her the connection and their identity.
But before she can be given her first task or even start her behind-the-scenes hunt, a building belonging to Cynwrig Lùtair—the highborn dark elf who is not only her council liaison but lover—is set alight, and they barely escape with their lives.
It quickly becomes clear that the cause of the fire was a relic belonging to the god of smiths and fire, capable of destroying anything made within a forge, old or new. And the man wielding it is an elf who stirs uneasy echoes of past darkness within Bethany.
As the attacks intensify and draw ever closer to home, it’s increasingly evident that not only do the keys to finding the culprits lie in the past Bethany can’t remember, but he’s someone who knew her very well indeed.
Someone who has no qualms about doing whatever it takes to get what he wants from her.
Even if that means killing Lugh."
