The oh so cold Prince of Lies from Eric's critically acclaimed Crushed Ice returns! He lurks in the silence, ready to strike without warning, without mercy.

He's known love and loss, and now his past mistakes are coming back to haunt him. When the sensuous schemer Sophia, on the run from a Saudi prince's harem, begs for Truth's help, he has to respond—she's the sister of his former lover, Colette, a woman whose life he ruined. And now he, Sophia and Colette are caught in the middle of an all-out war between an ambitious DA and a drug kingpin. Daring rescues, hair's-breadth escapes, a trail of thrills stretching from NYC to New Orleans. . .can Truth handle it?

Book Description
All spoiled vampire Ezra wanted was a night of fun. Drinks, dancing, and hopefully a lot of sex. What he gets instead is kidnapped by a rival vampire clan. He escapes his captors only to end up lost in the woods. In the middle of a blizzard. Seeking refuge from the cold and snow leads him to a seemingly empty cabin. Morgan just dropped a bomb on his family for Christmas--after years of training in the family monster hunting business he's quitting, effective immediately. To escape their judgment he runs away to a friend's cabin for a week of solitude. No family. No phones. Unfortunately the cabin has a little vampire problem: Ezra. But this vampire is unlike any monster Morgan has come up against before. For one thing, Ezra is dressed in five inch heels and follows Morgan around like a lost puppy. For another, Morgan can't stop thinking about what it would be like to kiss a vampire instead of killing one. And the longer the snow keeps them trapped together the more vampire and hunter wonder if they're really meant to be enemies at all. Frostbite (7 Caged Tigers series, book 1) is a 40,000 word m/m snowed in romance. Content warnings for scenes of violence and injury, blood and blood drinking, sexual situations (consensual), and mild kink
