Fire Kin
Book 4, The Half-Light City
Re-released: 19 October
In a city preparing for war, I've chosen a side. When my kind—the Fae—retreated, I remained behind with the humans, knowing they’d need my talent for healing as they try to defeat the Night World.
The humans are desperate, outnumbered by the Blood and the Beast Kind. But I never expected them to seek aid from the one man I’ve tried everything to forget. Asharic is Fae like me and once my heart was his. Until he was exiled by the Queen whose death has splintered the city’s peace and whose empty throne is dividing the Fae. Now he’s coming home with his mercenary army to fight a battle I’m not sure we can win.
I tell myself he means nothing to me now, but Ash’s power is fire, and he still makes me burn with just a look. I'm not the only one thrown off balance by his return. The vast magic he commands threatens more than just the Night World and there are those who would sacrifice the city to take him down. As old enemies move against him and the Blood push for conquest, navigating past hurts and new alliances seems impossible.
To stand against the dark, I need to embrace the fire, and hope it doesn’t leave me with nothing but ashes…
Fire Kin is the fourth and final book in the Half-Light series.

Dragon Bond
Book 1, Dragon Shifters
Released: 15 October
I never expected to bond with someone… let alone a dragon shifter.
Roran is everything my rational mind tells me to fear—powerful, dangerous, a creature of ancient magic and primal instincts. But his touch ignites a fire within me, a longing I can’t deny, a bond that defies the laws of nature and the boundaries of our separate worlds.
I’m caught in a web of ancient prophecy and clan rivalries, which I don’t understand.
As danger closes in and the lines between our worlds blur, I must choose between the life I thought I wanted and a destiny I could never have imagined.
Because in the heart of the Outback, where the red earth meets the starlit sky, love can be a curse as much as a blessing.
And the dragon who has claimed my heart might be the only one who can save me from the darkness that threatens to consume us all.
Continue the story in Dragon Reborn.
Dragon Reborn
Book 2, Dragon ShiftersReleased: 28 October
Trapped in a cavern, bound to a dragon. This wasn't the future I'd planned.
The silence is deafening, the loneliness a constant ache. Roran, my dragon, is frozen in stone, a prisoner of his love for me, his warmth a distant memory. The dragon eggs, our only hope, pulse with a magic I don't understand.
Fear whispers in the shadows, a prophecy unfolds, and a darkness I can't comprehend threatens to consume us all. I'm just a human, caught in a world of ancient magic, a world where love is a curse, and destiny is a cruel master.
But the bond we share, the fire he ignited within me, refuses to be extinguished. And as the line between our worlds blurs, I must find the strength to face my fears, to embrace the unknown, to fight for a future I never dared to dream of.
Because even in the darkest of nights, a dragon's love can ignite a dawn.
Note to Reader: This book follows on from Dragon Bond. While Dragon Reborn can be read as a standalone it would be more enjoyable journey to read Dragon Bond first.

Released: 24 October
Many deaths ago, phoenix shifter Dalmon Vecker created the Coven to protect paranormals during the witch hunts. Once again, he is running it instead of being king, or heir, or any of the other roles he’s played to safeguard the secrets he and his brothers keep. Now the Coven, and the paranormal community, are under threat as some witches want to reveal the truth to humans to enable them to seize control.
For Lucian Marwood, getting arrested by the Coven means that he’s safe. For the first time in five years, he can breathe without worrying that the man who’d promised him the world only to take it from him bit by bit will never know the depths of his hate. He doesn’t need the Coven to explain the extent of the damage he did. He knows, and he will tell them everything to make amends.
It's a pity the head spy thinks he’s a liar.
Dalmon may not remember the details of his previous lives, but seeing Lucian stirs something in his soul as if they have crossed paths before. But who he was and what happened isn’t something he has the luxury of investigating if he is going to stop the Shadow Board.

When you’re on the run from a killer, you can’t afford attachments. For over a year, I’ve been alone, never staying in one place long, fighting to survive.

But when I walk into Hard Burn—the best gym in New Orleans—desperate to learn how to fight, I discover my stranger is none other than Beauden Fury.
When Beau discovers I’m being hunted, I see the true depth of his protective streak. He gives me a job, and says he’ll train me to protect myself. But he also makes it clear that he thinks I’m too young, too vulnerable, and too nice for him.
Now we’re spending hours together, side by side, and it’s hard to remember that I can’t let myself get too close. It’s even harder to fight our red-hot desire.
But the man hunting me hasn’t given up.

Book 4, Fury Brothers

I share a perfect kiss with a handsome stranger…only to find out that he’s my brother’s best friend.
New Orleans is an exciting new start for me. When I’m not in my lab working on my project, I’m determined to enjoy all the city has to offer. That’s how I ended up at a party hosted by the Fury Brothers.
That’s how I ended up kissing Reath Fury. Six-feet something of dark, handsome, and gorgeous.
When Reath finds out I’m the little sister of his best buddy from the military, he’s not happy.
But then I get attacked in my lab. Someone is after my project. Did I mention I have top-secret military funding? Turns out some very bad people plan to auction my work to the highest bidder.
Now Reath vows to keep me safe. The former CIA agent gives new meaning to the words overprotective and bossy. But spending every hour of the day together makes it impossible to keep our hands off each other.
We agree to keep it our little secret—all sex, no emotions allowed.
But the criminal after my project has a history with Reath, and he’s out for revenge. My brother’s best friend, the man who tells me he doesn’t do love, is the only one who can protect me.
And the only one who can break my heart.

Book 1, Sons of the Sheikh
Released: 31 October
His sting is as lethal as his charm.
Sheikh Aziz Hadi might be a player who knows how to charm the panties off women, but that means very little when the one woman he wants—Zamira Fasih—is also the one woman he can’t have. She’s the daughter of a sheikh from a neighboring country bordering his province. That they’re at war means there is no way he can talk to her, let alone date her. Then he sees her at the markets and he can’t deny the impulse to take what—who—he wants.
Zamira Fasih is not interested in Aziz, at least that’s what she tells herself. He and his family sided with an enemy of her father’s and now her people are paying the ultimate price. The Hadi family are scum, and Aziz is the worst of them. He’s not worthy of her attention, if only she’d stop damn well thinking about him! Then he kidnaps her and expects her to like him—but he’d better think again!
She is promised to another man who will help end the war and the death of her people, and nothing will change her mind. Not even the famous charm Aziz is renowned for.
