Book Description
Like it or not, she's part of the team... come hell or fiery demon. Barely a week after a searing wraith battle left me with amped-up supernatural abilities, I'm back to my cover as Essie Shaw, "normal" beat cop. My frostbite-inducing empathic gift and enhanced hearing, I can work with. My combat spell - weak at best - still comes in handy. But it's the 24/7 glowy eye thing that's toughest to hide. When an encounter with a feral vampire nearly kills my partner (déjà vu, anyone?), the chief of police gives me a make-or-break assignment - join the JP team. Yeah, good luck bridging the aching gulf that's divided us since that near-fatal fight with the wraith. There's Gideon, who electrifies my soul; Jacob, who commands it; and Kol, who tempts it. Then there's Marcus with his ferocious, pulse-pounding energy, who left without even a goodbye. Amid lingering tensions, we investigate who's creating an army of twisted, insatiable feral vampires. The truth will extract a terrible price from us all - body, magic, and soul. Destined Blood is the second book in the Nephilim's Destiny series, an action-packed full-length paranormal romance with four irresistible guys and a kick-ass heroine who doesn't have to choose.

Book Description
Zoey is finally home where she belongs, safe with her Guardian Warrior, Stark, by her side, and preparing to face off against Neferet – which would be a whole lot easier if the High Counsel saw the ex-High Priestess for what she really is. Kalona has released his hold on Rephaim, and, through Nyx's gift of a human form, Rephaim and Stevie Rae are finally able to be together – if he can truly walk the path of the Goddess and stay free of his father's shadow... But there are new forces at work at the House of Night. An influx of humans, including Lenobia's handsome horse whisperer, threatens their precarious stability. And then there's the mysterious Aurox, a jaw-droppingly gorgeous teen boy who is actually more – or possibly less – than human. Only Neferet knows he was created to be her greatest weapon. But Zoey can sense the part of his soul that remains human, the compassion that wars with his Dark calling. And there's something strangely familiar about him... Will Neferet's true nature be revealed before she succeeds in silencing them all? And will Zoey be able to touch Aurox's humanity in time to protect him – and everyone – from his own fate? Find out what's destined in the next thrilling chapter of the House of Night series.

Righteous Blood, Ruthless Blades
Author: Brendan Davis
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1472839374
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Righteous Blood, Ruthless Blades is a roleplaying game of dark adventure and heroic thrills inspired primarily by the wuxia stories of Gu Long. Players assume the roles of eccentric heroes who solve mysteries, avenge misdeeds, uphold justice, and demonstrate profound mastery of the martial arts. Character creation is designed to produce fleshed-out, potent individuals who can follow several paths, including those of the physician, beggar, assassin, thief, soldier, bandit, and more. These characters inhabit a unique martial world, or Jianghu, set in a romanticized ancient China. The towns, temples, and inns the characters can visit, and the sects and factions with whom they interact, will bring their own character to the game and provide a host of opportunities – and threats. The game is based on a simple ten-sided dice pool mechanic, loosely modeled on the one found in Wandering Heroes of Ogre Gate, and play is designed to be gritty, suspenseful, and fast, so the focus remains on solving mysteries and roleplaying your character. When combat does arise, it is consequential and swift, and often resolved in a single role of the dice. This rulebook includes a sample martial world and a starting adventure, as well as guidelines for games masters looking to run wuxia games and create their own unique Jianghu, rife with martial experts, sects, and mysterious locations.

Pages : 282
Book Description
They'll do anything to protect her... as long as they never learn her secret. I'm Officer Essie Shaw, and I shouldn't exist. If anyone finds out their friendly neighborhood beat cop is a nephilim - public enemy number one - I'll be imprisoned. Or worse, dissected. I survive by keeping my head down and my barely-there magic under wraps. But when I lose a fight with a strange, smoke-like wraith, I'm confronted with my worst nightmare. A Joined Parliament Team of Agents - supernatural monster hunters who'd arrest me in a heartbeat if they knew the truth - a no-nonsense angel whose mere gaze captures my soul, a vampire with a breathtaking bite, an incubus with enticing hellfire in his eyes, and, worst of all, my smoldering-hot ex-partner, turned werewolf thanks to my rookie mistake. This wraith has been picking off veterans of the recently won war against the archangel Michael, and the bodies are piling up. My unwanted connection to it, along with the team's skills, could be the key to trapping it in magical stasis. Question is, am I strong enough to serve as bait, while keeping the secret that could brand me their enemy? Destined Darkness is the first book in the Nephilim's Destiny series, an action-packed full-length paranormal romance with four irresistible guys and a kick-ass heroine who doesn't have to choose.
