Book Description
Fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and J. R. Ward will devour this Slow Burn Romantic Urban Fantasy series! I’m a pixie-sized bounty hunter on a mission, and I have one goal: Revenge. With a kill-count that puts most bounty hunters in the business to shame, I’ve seen it all and am one of the best. You name it and I can handle it. From vicious vampires and rogue shifters to treacherous mages. Just when I thought I couldn’t be surprised, I find myself ensnared by the devious and sexy Fin Taylor, a billionaire fae prince with motives of his own. But it seems fortune is on my side after all, because my captor and I have a common enemy. The very man I’ve been hunting all these years—the mythic Black Mage—the magic wielding bastard who murdered my parents. Whatever gripes I’ve got with the gorgeous prince are going to have to take a back seat, because I’ve waited too long not to claim the blood owed. Together, we have a real shot at bringing the Black Mage to justice. Only, he always seems to be one step ahead… and now something is horribly wrong with Fin, placing our lives in more danger than ever before. If I can’t figure out a way to help him and get us back on track, I won’t just miss my chance at revenge; I may end up delivering two more victims straight into the Black Mage’s bloody hands. Author Note: This book ends with a cliff-hanger that leads straight into book 2!

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 474
Book Description
SHADOW tells the haunting story of Dakota Sterling and how she became the ruthless vigilante, Shadow, who -- alongside her partner, Jasper Beauregard (Sparrow) -- protects the very city which turned her into the monster that she is. Silver City is plagued by crime and corruption, most of which is owed to the secret underground railroading faction called the Faceless League, which kidnaps children and trains them to be barbarous assassins. Thirteen years ago, in the year 2004, the Faceless League targeted three very important, very wealthy children: Dakota Lovett, her younger brother, Wesley, and his best friend, Alice Fitzgerald. Dakota found herself to be an unlikely protector of the younger children when they discovered the faction had no intentions of returning them to their respective families. When young Wesley fell ill within the week that they were held hostage, proving himself to be too weak for the Faction’s liking, he was executed right in front of the girls. A distraught Dakota and fearful Alice plotted to escape the next night and their plan worked, but only Alice made it out. Dakota Lovett was left behind, and no one – not even Alice – ever knew what happened to her. Through analepsis, 20-year-old Alice recounts the days of her captivity in the Faceless Institute up until her miraculous escape in order to expose the faction. To Dakota Sterling, the little girl she was before she was recruited by the Faceless League has long since been dead. To ordinary girl Alice Grey, the past is the key to everything - she just doesn’t know it yet. As the Shadow does what is necessary to achieve justice and protect the people, she also struggles with her epic love for the equally-damaged Jasper. When Alice Grey sets out to find the Shadow's true identity, she opens old wounds, discovers even larger conspiracies hidden beneath the streets of the city she calls home and joins a dangerous game that she never meant to play.
