Languages : en
Pages : 141
Book Description
The prettiest faces tell the saddest stories. When Malia’s mother unexpectedly dies, she’s left to feel like she has nothing or no one. As the outcast of the family, she quickly finds herself homeless with nowhere to go. In her world, fairytales don’t exist, and she knows that there will be no Prince Charming coming to save her, or at least that’s what she believes. The definition of a savage is something wild, untamed, and not under human control. When it comes to Markell, that couldn’t be any truer. His whole life it’s been one thing after another, until he eventually turned into the savage that he is. When unfortunate circumstances bring him face to face with Malia, he’s plagued with curiosity. He knows she’s not only a pretty face, but she’s not so open to letting him into her world. Can Markell pull Malia out of her sorrow? Can Malia open herself up to him and show him where it hurts? Or will the tables turn, leaving him to need her more than she ever needed him?

ISBN: 1773571656
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 562
Book Description
Enter this urban fantasy world with fallen angels, witches, vampires, and succubi, where shadows hold more than just empty promises of the night... Book 1: Where there’s smoke, there’s hellfire… Sonia is a succubus with one goal: stay off Hell’s radar. But when succubi start to die, including her sometimes lover, Jeannie, she’s drawn into battle between good and evil and a past that isn’t ready to let her go. Fae is a blood witch turned vampire, running a tattoo parlor and trading her craft for blood. She notices that something isn’t right on the streets of her city. The denizens of Hell are restless. With the aid of her nest mate, Perry, and his partner, Charley, she races against time before the next victim falls. The killer has a target in his sights, and Sonia might not live to see the dawn. Book 2: A betrayal will lead her into the darkness. A second chance will lead her into the light. Magic and mystery come to life when humans encounter the secrets of Forbidden Ink. When a blood-for-ink trade gives Genevieve more than she bargained for, her world gets upended. A visit to Cirque Nocturne to blow off some steam is intended to give her the distraction she needs, but this tattooed beauty finds more waiting for her in the shadows than she could ever have hoped for. The shadow world of Cirque Nocturne is not always what it seems. Maliah is a phoenix shifter, bound to Cirque Nocturne by blood and an unbreakable vow. But when the shadows reveal a darkness more beautiful than she has ever seen, she must decide whether there is room in her heart for the one thing that could make her whole or break her completely. Book 3: Even the shadows have secrets. Check your inhibitions at the door… Return to the world of Sigil Fire, where dark desires and delights collide with the wild magic of Forbidden Ink, the sensuous wonders of The Violet Hour, and the mysteries of Cirque Nocturne. The price of admission might just be your soul. Complicated love… Reyna is a wolf shifter with relationship issues. Or rather, the lack of them. She’s found her mate, or at least she thinks so, but things get more than a little complicated during a zombie apocalypse. When Reyna’s past rears its ugly head, will her lost memories be the key to her future—or her undoing? Eternal devotion… Charley is a succubus on a mission. Bound by an oath made long ago, she is torn between her attraction to Reyna and her duty. When Hell and Heaven collide in an all out war, she has a decision to make. If she isn’t careful, it could be her last.
