"Malachite: I have a wonderful life. I have no room to complain; between my brothers and their new mates, this is the most alive our home has felt since my parents died. Unfortunately, all of them being mated is making me miserable. When it was just the four of us, it was us against the world. Now they're paired up and it's only me and my dragon, Kesia. Until I happen to walk into the Overlord's Lair and I see him: Quentin. Mine. Mate. As much as I want to win him over without telling him I'm a dragon rider and we're mates—which I know he'd love—I'm not sure I can. The minute I'm around him I act like an idiot.
Quentin: Every time the goofy guy walks into my store, he brightens my day, and I look forward to his daily visits. There's just something about him that draws me to him, to the point he leaves me pining after him the moment he's gone. But the thing is, I can tell he's hiding something, and my wild imagination is coming up with the craziest explanations of the secrets he's keeping. Maybe he's a vampire that's come to whisk me away—ridiculous, right? But a guy can dream. And I've definitely been dreaming of that big, muscular man wrapping me in his arms at night.

"When an incubus tells you he's your soulmate, do you stay and listen or run and never look back?
I've spent most of my life knowing that supernatural creatures exist but never really interacting with any, so my knowledge of them is limited. Still, who would've thought a demisexual incubus was a thing?
Well apparently, not only is it a thing, but I have one who claims to be my soulmate—or viramore, as he calls it. And now he has it in his head that he's going to save me from my past.
I think he might have a few screws loose, but something about him intrigues me, and I find myself drawn into his orbit. Could he be telling the truth? Could he really be my soulmate? Or should I be running from him the way I'm running from my enemies?

"Have a flying bat problem? Tennis Assassin to the rescue!
I've never been so scared in my life, but armed with a ski mask, a leather jacket, and a tennis racket, I'm ready to take on the flying demon . . . er, bat.
When one swing connects, and the bat hits the wall and turns into a man, my life changes forever. Ward swears he doesn't usually go around breaking into stranger's homes, but evidence suggests otherwise. Still, there's something sweet about the guy that makes me feel protective of him . . . even if he is some kind of supe.

"Who would've thought I, of all people, would be consorting with the enemy?
Every fae dreams of finding that one person to complete their soul, but I've waited for so long with no sign of my viramore—my soulmate—that I thought I wouldn't be so lucky.
But then I find him.
And what a surprise he is. Never in a million years did I think my viramore would be on the other side of things. That he'd come from a place where only evil permeates. That he'd be a monster. That he'd be my enemy. Life's full of surprises, right?
I don't know what to do or how to fix the chasm between us. I don't want to give up on him, but maybe this once, Fate is wrong. Maybe we aren't perfect for each other. Maybe we aren't two halves of a whole. But maybe, just maybe, being hunted by a common enemy will bring us together . . . or maybe he'll be the death of me.

"When I was fourteen, I was sucked through a portal to another realm—the land of the fae—and forced to live there for three years. Crazy, right? Welcome to my world. Being an Ellwood means being pulled into the craziest and most dangerous situations while trying to protect the people around you. But I wouldn't change it for anything.
For years, every time I visit the land of the fae, something seems to pull me toward the north. Naturally, it's the most dangerous place in all of Faela, so my family forbids me to travel there. But now I know something is wrong, and I find myself unable to ignore the call I feel deep down in my soul. The peaceful feeling I normally get from the north is gone, replaced with nothing but fear and sorrow.
I know in my heart that the pull I'm feeling is from my viramore—my soulmate—and I'm afraid I might be too late to save him. If I do make it there in time, what kind of condition will I find him in? I can feel that he's hurt, grieving, and simply waiting to fade away, and I'm too far to help. He's in danger, I know he is, and I'm not sure if I'll be able to keep him safe from the evil creatures hunting him.

"When I was young, I used to dream of finding my viramore—my soulmate—in all these crazy and amazing scenarios. But then my ex-girlfriend hired a mind-bender to mess with my memories, and well, it's no surprise that romantic notions flew out of the window for me.
I guess it's fitting that the first time I meet my viramore, he points a crossbow at my head and threatens to kill me if I don't get out of his way. Thing is, I've always liked a good challenge, and Hiro Grimbsy is nothing if not challenging. He's kind of a jerk, but I guess I'm glutton for punishment because I can't seem to stay away.
When dark forces threaten to take away everything Hiro and Basil care about, will they be able to work together or will they let anger, speculations, and fear hold them back?

"For centuries, I've gone through life floating from one lover to the next, never tying myself down to anyone. But then Grayson walks into my life, and I can't imagine spending it without him. Messing with the Warriors of Tempest isn't my greatest move, but to ensure he can stay with me, I'll do what I have to.
When Delaro seeks me out, the little witch makes my heart soar in new and unimaginable ways. Unfortunately, Delaro is an Ellwood, and his coven leader thinks I'm out to get him. Gray and I have to jump through hoops to even speak with Delaro, but we'll do whatever we can because we both feel a pull to the man that's turned our lives upside-down.
A shadowy figure starts terrorizing the land and threatens to destroy everything we've built and everyone I love. The three of us need to work together in order to conquer the new evil afloat in Brinnswick, but nothing is easy when something lurks in the shadows and around every corner.
