Book Description
He’s as lethal as he is beautiful, desired and feared by all. She’s big, bloodthirsty, and obliterates her enemies. Never should they have met. But they did... When an unknown enemy tries to end the ruling line of the Soul Mages, Verdria is more than ready to defend Priest-King Elect Honryn and his allies in this enemy land she now must call home. But then Honryn demands she also save his sire and two older brothers—save the very soul mages responsible for the deaths of many of her people—she rebels at Honryn’s orders, until he explains why his enemies can’t die yet. But Verdria will need the aid of another lethal enemy to achieve her goal. Going against every instinct she possesses, she does as Honryn asks and seeks out his uncle, the ruling Priest-King, for his aid. Together they form an uneasy alliance that strikes terror into their enemies. While the first attempt to end the ruling line of the Soul Mage empire may have failed, Verdria is kept busy. Many factions deem Honryn too powerful and dangerous and want him dead… But even his enemies don’t know the real reason they should fear him… That they should fear what he’s becoming… Because the Serpent God soon plans to claim Honryn as his new mortal host and Verdria as his consort. Once he does, no one will ever be safe again. But Verdria's greatest nemesis is her own traitorous heart... For she wants Honryn and the monster he becomes. Tropes: Enemies-to-lovers, morally grey hero, slowburn with steam, never-even-kissed heroine, inexperienced celibate hero, royal romance, forced proximity, who hurt you, touch him and die, touch her and die, court intrigue, ‘oops I unalived a bunch of people again’ hero and heroine. Author's Note: While most of my fantasy romances are standalone, this one is a continuing story and you need to read Soul Mage first. And by the way, this one does not have a major cliffhanger at the end.

Desperate not to lose their hard won home, Skandranon, along with his longtime friend Amberdrake--agree to accompany the envoys back to the Court of the Black Kings, hoping to negotiate an alliance. ...When a high ranking noble who opposes this alliance is found murdered--Skandranon and Amberdrake realize that they are up against unknown enemies who will stop at nothing, even the use of diabolical Blood Magic, to destroy White Gryphon.

Book Description
Shifting Into High Fear Ghost/god Wes Cooper and his not-life partner, vampire Hudson Rojas, have settled into cohabitation in an upscale part of Toronto. So what if their hoity-toity new neighbors haven’t exactly rolled out the welcome mat for the paranormal pair? Their PI business is booming, and when a suspect they’ve been tailing winds up in the morgue, it’s alongside a rash of other shifters in apparent drug-related fatalities. Now Wes and Hudson must connect the dots between the shifter deaths and an uptick in brutal vampire attacks across the city. Throw in a surprise visit from Hudson’s niece—who may or may not be on the run from European paranormal police (who may or may not exist)—and guardianship of a teen shifter who might be the key to solving the whole mystery (if only she could recover her memory), and Wes and Hudson have never been busier…or happier. But when a nightmare from Hudson’s past comes back to haunt him, their weird, little found family is pushed to the brink. Mucking this up would mean Hudson and Wes missing their second chance at happily-forever-afterlife… Not Dead Yet Book 1: Not Dead Yet Book 2: Give Up the Ghost Book 3: Graveyard Shift Ashes and Dust Book 1: All Fired Up Book 2: House on Fire Book 3: Out of the Ashes Chaos Station by Jenn Burke and Kelly Jensen Book 1: Chaos Station Book 2: Lonely Shore Book 3: Skip Trace Book 4: Inversion Point Book 5: Phase Shift

Dying isn’t what it used to be in Jenn Burke’s sexy paranormal mystery series, Not Dead Yet. Not Dead Yet Wes Cooper was dead. Then he wasn’t—though he’s not exactly alive either. As an immortal not-ghost, he can transition between this world and the otherplane, which makes him the perfect thief-for-hire. For seventy years he’s made a “living” returning items to their rightful owners, seeing his fair share of the bizarre in the process. But he’s never witnessed murder. Until now. It’s just Wes’s luck that his ex-boyfriend, Detective Hudson Rojas, is assigned to the case. Hudson broke Wes’s heart years ago—and could again. As they work together to track down the murderer, it becomes clear Wes and Hudson have unfinished business. And when a secret Hudson’s been keeping threatens more than just their happiness, it might mean the end of their not-life together—permanently. Give up the Ghost Immortal not-ghost Wes Cooper and his vampire partner, Hudson Rojas, have it all—rewarding private investigation work, great friends and, most important, a love that’s endured. But ever since Wes sent a demon screaming back to the beyond, his abilities have grown overpowering and overwhelming. He’s hiding the fact that he’s losing control the best he can, but it’s hard to keep anything a secret for long when your partner’s a former cop…and especially when your partner’s a former cop who wants to move in together. When all hell literally breaks loose in Toronto, he and Hudson are thrown into a case unlike any they’ve seen before. To save the city, Wes needs to harness his new power…and find some answers. But when he gets them, the solution to fix it all could mean losing everything.

Book Description
Don’t miss the conclusion to this riveting and romantic spin-off series from Jenn Burke, author of Not Dead Yet. Some bonds weren’t meant to be broken. Vampire PI Evan Fournier has dealt with his fair share of danger and heartache, but nothing prepares him for the pain of a broken bond with his mate—especially when his mate is the one who severed it. Bond or no, he still loves Colin—fiercely. Trust, however, is harder to come by. And when a demon starts terrorizing paranormals in Toronto, trust in one another is exactly what they’ll need. Former firefighter turned crime-fighting phoenix Colin Zhang knows who Evan was—is—to him, but he doesn’t know if he can give him what he wants. He just needs a little time to figure things out. Unfortunately, bringing down a demon bent on mass murder leaves little time for anything else. The only way they’ll destroy the demon is by teaming up with an unlikely partner to infiltrate a gang of terrorists. But the only way they’ll save themselves is by finding a path back into each other’s arms—and hearts—once again.

All over the city, with no explanation and only one thing in common: their magic is missing. Vampire and private investigator Evan Fournier isn’t supposed to be taking on paranormal cases, but when the murderer hits close to home, he agrees to look into it. The last thing he expects is to become a target himself—and then to become irrevocably bonded to the man who just tried to kill him. With his memory gone and his soul bonded to a stranger, former firefighter Colin Zhang wants to be anywhere else. He doesn’t have a damn clue why he just tried to kill Evan, and he didn’t even know about magic until just now. The sooner he can get back to his real life, the better. But every time either of them tries to leave, pure agony stops them short. Forced to work with Evan or suffer the consequences, Colin must excavate the secrets buried in his missing memories while battling two rising threats: the conspiracy behind the murder, and his mutual attraction to the bond mate he never wanted.
