      <image:title>Books - Shadow’s Seduction - SORCHA I have an endless to-do list, and Mace wants something else? I’ve already done the attractive shade far too many favors, so how did I end up agreeing to help him escort three witches back to their covens? I need to figure out my own life, now that my best friends are about to leave me behind. Who cares if Mace obviously needs a firm hand and a little direction? I’ve got too many people to take care of already. MACE I should have assigned anyone else to help Sorcha with this escort job. Every time she’s next to me, I can’t keep an appropriate thought in my head. Worse, she barely notices me. But like an idiot, I volunteered to work next to her for days. When our first mission goes sideways, we’re stuck together for longer than either of us anticipated and I’m not certain how long I can keep myself under control. Shadow’s Seduction is a road trip romance with an alpha heroine and a shadow monster who knows exactly how to handle her. This is the third book in the Monstrous Fates series, featuring bold women, intriguing monsters, and tons of action and adventure on the way to an HEA. Each book can be read as a standalone, but will have more impact if read in order.</image:title>

My friends and I have been working to topple a tyrant, but keeping all the threads in place takes work. Both of them are off doing their parts, and now it’s time to do mine. But others see me as an easy target, so I need a little extra muscle around while I make sure everyone is in their proper place. I just wish he’d stop blowing so hot and cold. THEKUTT I never expected to find my mate in an infuriating Seer. It was supposed to be a simple job: guard the Seer while she does her thing. Now she wants to go all over creation because the “fates” told her to. I just want to keep her safe. But my Seer can’t stay out of trouble. Contracting for dangerous magic, starting bar fights, getting lost in visions. Every time I turn around she’s in the middle of some new calamity. I should be furious with her but I can’t stop thinking about how her smile lights up the room. Gargoyle’s Fate is a grumpy/sunshine, fated mates, gargoyle romance. This is the second book in the Monstrous Fates series, featuring bold women, intriguing monsters, and tons of action and adventure on the way to a happily ever after.

      <image:caption>ARIA My job was to steal from him. Getting caught wasn’t part of the plan. Wanting him was out of the question. I’m a magical mercenary. Risk is my job. So when my sister, Luna, got kidnapped by a tyrannical warlord, I had to save her. The plan was simple, really. Steal a powerful sword from a reclusive dragon, kill the warlord, and rescue my sister. Sure, I’d have to keep one step ahead of an angry dragon for the rest of my life, but that was a problem for future Aria. KOL No one steals from a dragon and walks away. Centuries ago, I made a sword, Clarent. It was a mistake, sowing discord and disaster. Since I couldn’t destroy it, I’ve been hiding it in my cave, letting it rust in obscurity. Until a beautiful thief seduces her way inside and steals it from me. I need Clarent back before it can unleash destruction once again. But first, I need to find the woman that stole it. Because she’s my mate, and I’m not letting her disappear again. The Dragon’s Thief is an enemies-to-lovers, fated mates dragon romance. This is the first book in the Monstrous Fates series, featuring bold women, intriguing monsters, and tons of action and adventure on the way to a happily ever after.
