The first installment in this fierce and sensual new
paranormal romance series features demonic gladiators, ruthless mafia villains,
and a proud race on the brink of extinction.
Ten years ago, Audrey MacLaren chose to marry her human
lover, making her an exile from the Dragon Kings, an ancient race of demons
once worshiped as earthly gods. Audrey and her husband managed to conceive, and
their son is the first natural-born Dragon King in a generation - which makes
him irresistible to the sadistic scientist whose mafia-funded technology allows
demon procreation. In the year since her husband was murdered, Audrey and her
little boy have endured hideous experiments.
Shackled with a collar and bound for life, Leto Garnis is a
Cage warrior. Only through combat can Dragon Kings earn the privilege of
conceiving children. Leto uses his superhuman speed and reflexes to secure the
right for his two sisters to start families. After torture reveals Audrey's
astonishing pyrokenesis, she is sent to fight in the Cages. If she survives a
year, she will be reunited with her son.
Leto is charged with her training. Initially, he has no
sympathy for her plight. But if natural conception is possible, what has he
been fighting for? As enemies, sparring partners, lovers, and eventual allies,
Leto and Audrey learn that in a violent underground world, love is the only
prize worth winning.

The second in a fierce and sensual new paranormal romance
series featuring demonic gladiators, ruthless mafia villains, and the choices
made by a proud race on the brink of extinction.
As a young man, sarcastic,
violent Tallis Pendray believed the Dragon Kings' survival depended on a
prophecy delivered in dreams by a woman named "the Sun." His role has been to complete inexplicable, even
reprehensible tasks. First, by murdering a priest, he united his fragmented
clan in their hatred of him. Dubbed "the Heretic," Tallis fled his family's Highland estate. Now disillusioned,
he seeks revenge on the woman he holds responsible for two decades of exile.
Telepath Kavya Indranan is a charismatic, seductive cult leader born to a
prominent family. However, she grew up terrorized by the ominous threat of her
powerful, insane twin brother. On the run and hiding among the poor, she
witnessed the destruction wrought by her clan's centuries-old civil war.
Maturity nurtures Kavya's determination to end the cycle of bloodshed. Those
who follow her call for peace have nicknamed her "the Sun."
Bent on revenge, and without knowledge of Kavya's noble
intentions, Tallis kidnaps her on the eve of her groundbreaking announcement.
The two watch in horror as her twin brutally smashes the tentative truce...and
hunts the sister whose death would make him invincible. Kavya is the Sun - revered,
untouched, and bound by a lonely destiny that promises a deadly showdown
against the last of her family.
Tallis is the Heretic - despised and exiled
because of actions that seem random, heartless, and contrary to the safety of
the clans he protects. She's not a goddess, and he's not a natural born killer.
A desperate trek from the Himalayan foothills to the Scottish Highlands reveals
two secluded souls hidden by bloody reputations. Will their trust be strong
enough to avert an all-out war that could destroy them, and their kind,
forever?
