Book Description
Viktoria likes her simple life, but this Maiden of Pohjola is far from a simple girl. Jael, an assassin trained by the Old Man of the Mountain almost four thousand years ago, has never had a target like her. Little does he know falling in love with a vampire could result in Viktoria being imprisoned forever. For the last thousand years, Viktoria's only goal has been to earn her freedom. She made a deal with Louhi, Goddess of Witchcraft and Death, and the penalty for losing is imprisonment forever - not only for Viktoria, but all twelve of her sisters. She can't let them down, even if it costs her the thing she's always wanted - love. Jael has dedicated his existence to finding the mage who murdered his family to avenge his wife and daughter. But the glimpse of a future with his Draga makes him see possibilities he'd thought long lost. The Spider Mage sets his sights on Viktoria, sending Jael into danger to protect her, and Viktoria is forced to make an impossible choice - her freedom or his life. This is a sexy, happily-ever-after, soulmate novel with no closed doors, cheating, or cliffhangers. It's a fast-paced story that blends romance, mythology, humor, and adventure. While a little more of the Dragaverse is revealed as the series progresses, the romance in each novel focuses on one couple and can be read as a standalone.

Book Description
In this Lucas Fume Western from the Spur Award-winning author of Vengeance at Sundown, no man is truly free until he puts his past—and his enemies—to rest. Lucas Fume has been exonerated of the murder charge that put him in prison seven years ago. But he isn’t free yet. Not while his friend, former slave Zeke Henry, remains a fugitive wrongly accused of assaulting Senator Barlow’s daughter, Celia. Lucas wouldn’t have his freedom or wealth—let alone his life—if it weren’t for Zeke. And he knows that the only way to clear his friend’s name is to prove the identity of Celia’s true attacker: Senator Barlow himself. Now Lucas has a plan to take on the powerful Senator—and his son John, aka Lanford Grips—once and for all. The only question is whether it will lead to freedom or the end of a noose.

Then, a letter invites Olivia to come home to Gallant. Yet when Olivia arrives, no one is expecting her. But Olivia is not about to leave the first place that feels like home; it doesn’t matter if her cousin Matthew is hostile, or if she sees half-formed ghouls haunting the hallways. Olivia knows that Gallant is hiding secrets, and she is determined to uncover them. When she crosses a ruined wall at just the right moment, Olivia finds herself in a place that is Gallant—but not. The manor is crumbling, the ghouls are solid, and a mysterious figure rules over all. Now Olivia sees what has unraveled generations of her family, and where her father may have come from.

They have been at Legacy Castle, training under their master, Master Kaiden, and Adrian is becoming a more powerful sorcerer each and every day. Not much has been going on at the castle other than some friendly competitions and a couple of trolls who have been causing a little ruckus in the dungeons, but it’s been plenty to keep our gang busy. However, once an amulet that used to belong to the goddess Hecate is located and thought to be in danger, Master Kaiden has to make a decision on whether the gang is ready to embark on their first ever real mission. What Master Kaiden doesn’t know is that evil forces familiar and unknown are working from all different sides in an attempt to possess the amulet for their own evil desires. So join Adrian and the gang as they travel down a dark and treacherous road filled with twist and turns that will lead to an even darker truth that no one could ever imagine. And the start of an old but new beginning!
