Book Description
THE RYAN CHRONICLES: Tom and CJ Ryan harbor the power of the Gods. Refusing to stand with Lucifer puts both of them, and everyone they love, on the devil's hit list. The series includes these single titles: CJ's Story: ANGEL GRACE - Book 1 ANGEL HEART - Book 2 ANGEL WRATH – Book 3 Tom's Story: ANGEL BLOOD - Book 4 ANGEL FIRE - Book 5 ANGEL FURY – Book 6 ANGEL GRACE When the devil ripped my angelic father’s head off, that was just the start of my bad day. Walking in on my girlfriend screwing someone else made it officially the worst day of my life. And left one hell of a scar on my already damaged soul. But it keeps getting worse. You see, Lucifer wants my meatsuit. He wants my natural powers. He wants Armageddon. And he wants it now. But in order to get that, I have to say yes. And the devil throws a lot of nasty tricks my way to get me to yield. But I can’t give in, even if it means watching everyone I love die. If I cave, the entire world will burn. ANGEL HEART I have no memory of my life beyond waking in a hospital room. They tell me my name is CJ Ryan, and I have been in a coma for a little over two years. Apparently, it’s a medical miracle that I am even alive, much less awake and coherent. I have no idea what they are running on about. My stutter is hardly articulate, and it makes communicating a real bitch. But the media loves it, the story of the ‘coma boy wakes!’ I’m thrust into the forefront of the headlines. The push into the spotlight shines a harsh glare on my family and brings with it a plague of horrors that drag me to the edge. With each supernatural encounter, another power is revealed, and I have no idea what the hell I am, or how to control this raging magic inside me. I need answers and I turn to my brother, but he isn’t talking. No one is. Because every time I get close to glimpsing my past, my brain shuts down violently, causing me seizures. Seizures that could kill me. When an enemy with a psychotic history reenters our lives, it will take more than just my memory to save us. I must harness my memories along with all the powers inside me to survive the upcoming onslaught. ANGEL WRATH On the outside it looks like my life has returned to normal. I have Valerie, my soul mate, by my side in wedded bliss. But darkness overshadows my happily-ever-after. My guilt for sending my father to an eternity of torture at Lucifer’s hands is a pain I cannot escape. When Valerie and I return from our honeymoon, a note from the king of hell greets me, outlining in sickening detail his plans for the rest of those I hold dear. With everyone I love on the devil’s hit list, it’s time I start living up to the bargains I made in Heaven. I need to close Hell’s gates. All of them. But for every portal I close, its one less available for my father’s escape. ANGEL BLOOD Someone is murdering people, draining them dry, and the police suspect it may be a vampire. When the captain of the York police department turns to Tom Ryan and his paranormal investigation agency for help, Tom takes one look at the crime scene photos and knows the killer isn’t a blood sucker. Tom and his business partner compare the murders with a list of angel descendants and a chilling pattern is confirmed. Angel bloodlines are being extinguished, and there are only a handful left between the killer’s hunting ground and their family in York. They must stop the assassin before he can cross off any more names on his hit list. ANGEL FIRE In the aftermath of his wife's death, Tom Ryan cannot breathe when his three-year-old daughter, Hannah, is out of his sight. His over protectiveness falls into the realm of paranoia, born from the fear that Lucifer is not done with him yet. When that same apprehension manifests in his daughter, he realizes he needs to deal with his issues before his terror poisons Hannah’s innocence. Just when he manages to get a grip on his separation anxiety, his worst nightmare comes to fruition. Desperate to save Hannah from the devil's grip, Tom will do just about anything to get her back, even if it means the ultimate act of betrayal. ANGEL FURY Duty is a double-edged sword. It means putting yourself last, ripping you away from everyone you love while you complete an unreasonable quest just to keep them safe. Tom Ryan left York. He left everything he loves to safeguard the last angel descendants. Now he’s back, still damned, still persecuted. Prophecy says York will burn, and everyone left who matters to Tom is in York. With no time to catch up and reconnect, Tom is thrust into a battle he’s destined to lose. There are only so many ways you can break a man before his wrath changes the status quo. Rekindled by family, by love, by home and memories, the ruthless son of Ty Ryan steps into the shoes left under the family tree by his dad, and this time he’s out of mercy.
