Book Description
I am Meredith Gentry, P.I. and Princess Merry, heir to the throne of Fairie. Now there are those among me who whisper I am more. They fear me even as they protect me. And who can blame them? I’ve awakened the dazzling magic that’s slumbered in them for thousands of years. But the thing is, I can’t figure out why. My aunt, the Queen of Air and Darkness, is no longer distracted by her usual sadistic hobbies. Her obsession has turned unwaveringly to me. The mission to get me pregnant and beat my cousin Prince Cel to the crown is taking longer than expected. Even though I spend each night with the Queen’s Ravens, my immortal guards, no child has come of our decadent pleasures. But something else is happening. My magic courses through me uncontrollably. And as I lock my half-mortal body with their full-Sidhe blooded ones, the power surges like never before. It all began with the chalice. I dreamed of it, and it appeared, cool and hard, beside me when I awoke. My guards know the ancient relic well—its disappearance ages ago stripped them of their vital powers. But it is here with us now. My touch resonates with its force, and they’re consumed with it, their Sidhe essences lit up by it. But even as they cherish me for this unexpected gift, there are those who loathe me for it. Me, a mongrel, only half fey and part mortal. The Unseelie court has suffered for so long, and there are some who would not have it weakened further by an impure queen. My enemies grow in number every day. But they do not know what I am capable of. Nor, for that matter, do I. . . . In Seduced by Moonlight, Laurell K. Hamilton brings the dark, erotic reign of the immortal fey to a startling new depth. Full of sensuality and the consuming anticipation of latent powers unleashed, this world of gods, shapeshifters, and immortal souls is unveiled in all of its supreme magnificence and its treacherous deceits.

A bundle of books #1 (ON THE ROCKS), #2 (EXTRA DIRTY), #3 (FULL BODIED), and #4 (STRAIGHT UP) in Mia Gold’s Ruby Steele cozy mystery series. This bundle offers books one, two, three, and four in one convenient file, with over 150,000 words of reading. Ruby Steele, 30, beautiful, fit, seems just like any other ex-pat hiding out in the Bahamas and playing local bartender. But unruly patrons find out the hard way: Ruby is a mixed-martial-arts pro, and not one you’d want to cross. In fact, Ruby would be a champion if she hadn’t been forced to walk away and hide out in the Bahamas. Because Ruby knows too much. She knows where the bodies are buried. And she knows when it’s time to get out of town. But what Ruby doesn’t know is why there is a dead tourist in the dumpster behind her seedy bar. Or why, she, of all people, had to find it. Or why this guy was out at 3am when he had a pretty fiancé waiting in a hotel room a mile away. Or why the local cops are pinning her. Or why she’s gonna be forced into a choice: find the killer, or do hard time herself. For Ruby, good choices have never been her strong point. And this one’s definitely not going to be good… Welcome to the Bahamian world of Ruby Steele, replete with her local dive bar, her wily pet monkey, her major drinking problem, her (way) too many fights, her inability to get herself out of trouble, and her fists made of stone. Ruby’s life is a complete wreck. But there’s one thing she’s good at: capturing your heart. The RUBY STEELE cozy mystery series is a page-turning mystery/thriller series, one that will linger with you long after the last page is read.

A bundle of books #2 (EXTRA DIRTY) and #3 (FULL BODIED) in Mia Gold’s Ruby Steele cozy mystery series. This bundle offers books two and three in one convenient file, with over 150,000 words of reading. In EXTRA DIRTY (Book #2), a 40-something female tourist seeks out Ruby, desperate for her help. She was out partying all night with her friend, both of them drinking way too much and doing things they don’t want their husbands to know about. The problem is, as of 12 hours ago, her friend is missing. Their husbands can’t know. The cops can’t know. She needs Ruby’s help. And she’s running out of time. Ruby, though, has enough problems of her own. Shadowy figures from her old life are getting close. Way too close. Can Ruby really play detective and take on someone else’s problems? Who is this woman, anyway? And what isn’t she telling her? Ruby can’t keep away from a bad decision. And this time, it looks like, won’t be any exception…. In FULL BODIED (Book #3), Ruby’s known for making friend in bad places. And her newest friend, a bouncer at the brothel next door, is no exception. When he comes to her with a sob story, she can’t turn away. When that story turns to a body he found this morning, Ruby sits up straighter. When it turns out that body belonged to a trafficked teenaged girl, Ruby’s sense of justice is lit. Ruby’s gotta solve this one, for her own need to set wrongs right. Problem is, the cops don’t care, and this case will surely take her to some bad places, and up against some bad people. That may just include a billionaire with his own private yacht—and his own private army. It’s not like Ruby doesn’t have an army of her own coming after her. The last thing Ruby needs right now is a two-front war. But it looks like that’s exactly what she’s going to get. No one said Ruby’s judgement was good. Then again, if it was, she wouldn’t be hiding out in the Bahamas, tending bar, with a monkey on her shoulder and an enemy list a mile long. Welcome to the Bahamian world of Ruby Steele, replete with her local dive bar, her wily pet monkey, her major drinking problem, her (way) too many fights, her inability to get herself out of trouble, and her fists made of stone. Ruby’s life is a complete wreck. But there’s one thing she’s good at: capturing your heart.
