Welcome new DarkSiders!

Rachel Armstrong

I have always loved books and making up stories, so I've never wanted to be anything but an author. I strive to create epic feel-good romances and have a weakness for an adventurous holiday escape. My characters may be suffering emotionally, but they're strong, healthy people with quirky passions and a soft spot for dogs. Helping them find their happily-ever-after is my life's joy.

I live in Townsville, Queensland, with my border collie Jacob. It is warm all year round with a gateway to the Australian Outback and the Great Barrier Reef. When I'm not writing, I promote healthy lifestyles and rehabilitate hearts as an exercise physiologist.

The Reckoning

Book 3, The Mendovan Alliance Chronicles

Released: 1 November

Payback Is A Bitch

They thought the Xjaran had been subdued.

They thought they were safe.

They thought wrong.

Kai’a is eager to accept her new commission as a pilot aboard the Lightship Odin to join the fight to protect the Alliance worlds. It also places her right under the supervision of the man she loves, a love she knows will never be returned.

Mak Corbin isn’t ready to accept Kai’a onto his flight deck. Not with his unspoken, all-consuming, forbidden attraction to her. She’s out of bounds, and he already has a squadron of pilots to look after. One more - this particular one - might just break him. But when the Xjaran attack the heart of the Alliance itself, Kai’a’s shuttle goes silent.

Fear and uncertainty decimates long-standing accords between species. Now Mak has to choose between what little is left of his shattered soul, and battling to hold the remnants of the Alliance together.

Destiny's Blood

Book 3, Cursed Ones

Released: 5 November

Lily De Vere, half-witch, ex-cop and now private eye, has never had a family. Even the elders of the coven who raised her never knew what kind of creature fathered her.

Gene Cohen grew up in the Sydney werewolf pack, the son of its Alpha, surrounded by family. After the murder of his father, Gene becomes the Alpha, grappling with his need for revenge.

That’s not the only need he’s grappling with. This white-haired, pale-eyed half-witch PI investigating his father’s murder sets his werewolf blood sizzling, and when his mother forbids him to touch her, he only wants her more.

Lily has enough to deal with trying to solve the Alpha’s murder while keeping his tall, cocky, powerfully sexy son out of trouble, but as shared erotic dreams begin, the bond between them grows, and Lily can’t deny how he makes her feel.

As the killers come after Gene and a stranger arrives, bringing secrets of Lily’s heritage, these two will find that destiny is in the blood and in the heart.

Castle of Nevers and Nightmares
Book 1, Fae Devils


Expected Release: 29 October in audio

Narrated by: June deBorahae, Fajer Al-Kaisi
Length: 14 hrs and 12 mins

When winter comes to the Court of Dreams, the war against the Subterranean of Nightmares freezes.

To celebrate, the faerie queen holds a tournament where mortals compete for the prize of a dream come true. For outsider Willow Nightstalk, it's the only way to break the curse making her as ugly as she feels.

But the deadly tournament has a darker purpose—to flush out flawed mortal blights on the perfectly pretty fae society… and to kill them. Any left alive are conscripted when war returns in spring. When the coveted prize can give you anything your heart desires, allies are likelier to stab you in your sleep than save you.

Surviving means securing the highly contested patronage of the powerful fae nobility. But when the notoriously recluse House of Shadow is the only option left, the odds are stacked against her. Especially since it's led by the six beautiful fae boogeymen who ruined her life. Then, the unthinkable happens. For the first time in years, the House of Shadow chooses a protégé.

Her.

Nothing is as it seems in the Court of Dreams, least of all the Nightmares.

Castle of Nevers and Nightmares is a slow-burn dystopian fantasy romance novel where the underdog heroine finds her inner power and the six villains learn to love. The tension is hot, and the world-building is full of intrigue. It's the first in the Fae Devils series, a Fae Guardians spinoff that will continue with a standalone world and story. Listening to the Fae Guardians is unnecessary to enjoy this story, but it can enhance your listening experience as these characters have a past. It is recommended for mature listeners.

Trials of Dusk and Dreams

Book 2, Fae Devils

The only way for Willow to defeat an oppressive faerie queen is to make six villains remember they’re obsessed with her, except . . .

One hates her.

One confuses her.

One distrusts her.

One is encased in stone.

One rejects her, and,

One thinks she’s a dangerous distraction.

The task seems impossible. To make matters worse, Avorlorna’s mortal populace is starving and fodder in a looming faerie war. If they find out she’s the reason for their suffering, she’ll be dead before the Solstice Trials begin. But that’s months away. She still has time to rewrite the realm’s fate, remind six demigods they have hearts, and find the belonging she’s always yearned for.

She has time . . . until she doesn’t.

Moments before she’s thrust into the arena, she receives a chilling warning: “One will betray you. One will try to kill you.” With alliances shifting like quicksand, Willow faces an agonizing choice: fight for the love of villains or sacrifice everything for a realm that hates her.

Trials of Dusk and Dreams is a slow-burn, spicy “why choose” dystopian-fantasy romance novel where the underdog heroine finds her inner power, the tension is hot, and the world-building is full of intrigue. It’s the second in the Fae Devils series, a Fae Guardians spinoff. Reading the Fae Guardians is unnecessary to enjoy this story, but it can enhance your reading experience as these characters have a past. It is recommended for mature readers due to language, violence, horror, and explicit sexual and dark situations.

Exiled Sector

Released: 1 November

Losing my husband broke me, but crash-landing onto Nightmare Island might just kill me.

This isn’t just any island.

It’s where the feral are sent to die.

The ones with nothing left to lose.

And now, I’m trapped with the most vicious pack shifters alive.

I’ve survived before—endured a forced marriage.

But this? This is different.

The wild shifters watch me from the shadows.

Their glowing eyes track my every move.

Their growls vibrate in the air.

I’m their target.

A prize to be claimed.

Then he finds me.

Ghost.

He says he’ll help, but nothing comes without a price.

And he wants more than I’m willing to give.

Just when I think I’ve hit my limit…

I start to experience my first heat.

The question isn’t if I’ll survive this place.

It’s what I’ll become when the fire finally consumes me.

Author’s Note: The Exiled Sector series features three fast-paced, action-packed, standalone romance books. Each story guarantees a happily-ever-after ending and can be read in any order. Nightmare Island is a paranormal romance set in the Savage Sector and Shadowlands Sector world.

Book 2, Daughters of the Darling

Released: 31 October, second edition

Within the treacherous caves of Undara, a betrayal will test the bonds of friendship and family.

When entomologist Emlyn Rees arrives at Hidden Valley, she wants nothing more than to escape her marriage breakdown by burying herself in the research team's hunt for new species of insects in the depths of the dramatic Undara lava tubes. Little does she suspect she will be the key to solving a mystery that's more than one hundred years old.

Travis Carlyle is initially resistant to letting some city academics tramp over his cattle station. Still, soon, the researchers' findings and a growing friendship with Emlyn bring opportunities to turn around his struggling farm. With a broken marriage behind him and children to care for, Travis needs to plan for the future, and this could be his family's best chance.

But when things start going wrong for the farm and around the dig site, Emlyn and Travis are at a loss to understand why. Are they cursed with bad luck, or is there a more sinister force at play? Are the tall tales of enigmatic stockman Stanley true? As the unseen saboteur grows bolder, Emlyn and Travis are caught in a race against time to save the station ... and their lives.

Anthology including stories by

HM Hodgson

Angelica Grymm

Expected Release: 16 August 

Welcome to CovenFest!

Witches and warlocks, sorcerers and spellcasters, come for mayhem and magic surrounded by Enchantment Mountains. Monsters, too, are invited.

As the world's royalty of witchcraft and wizardry descend on Leavenworth in rural Washington State for their week-long annual conference, magic and romance ensues while the beer flows at Octoberfest.

The everyday folk have no idea witches and warlocks, sorcerers and spellcasters, and monsters and mages walk among them.

Heroes and heroines talk to the dead, howl at the moon, dance under the stars and summon the powers that lurk in the shadows at the Monster Mash Ball on Halloween.

Romance is definitely not on the conference program, but hexing your ex is, for a price. While secret crushes and enemies alike will be tormented and cursed, the witches and warlocks, monsters and magic users just might save the world. And find true love.

Sink your fangs into eleven wickedly swoony and deliciously spooky tales of witchy romance. Enjoy fairytales with a steamy twist where happily ever afters are guaranteed and will make you laugh and gasp.

Contributing authors are Sabrina Duval, Louisa West, Fiona M Marsden, HM Hodgson, Clarissa Morgan, Zelda Hartland, Sharyn Swanepoel, Emily Hussey, Melanie Pickering, Angelica Grymm and Savannah Blaize.

Book 7, Outcast Pack

TJ Nichols

Expected Release: 1 July

Mitchell Wright expected to die when he was captured by hunters. When they chained him and left him in the bush, he hoped to die fast. Instead, his fated mate shows up and saves him. Now, he has to deal with his injuries for the rest of his life, and he’s a familiar to a witch he doesn’t even know.

Coven Agent Penrith Flint thought he was saving the wolf shifter’s life, not finding himself a familiar. Because of how it happened—the wolf didn’t consent to become his familiar—he’s desk-bound with his job on the line while praying to the Fates to let the bond fade.

After four months, it hasn’t.

When Mitchell turns up just before Christmas to see him, Penrith must decide if he’s willing to let the wolf into his life and risk his heart one more time. While neither man wants a fated mate, it is the gift they both need.

One wounded wolf shifter and a slightly bitter blood witch come together to discover that while love may not heal wounds, it makes them easier to bear and that finding Mitchell a pack is the family they both need.

TJ Nichols

Expected Release: 1 August

After four years of living in Darwin, George Franklin is back in Melbourne, and everything has changed. There is now a pack of gay wolf shifters with their own territory, something that would have been unimaginable when he left. His own family pack is expecting him to move home and run with them…and he definitely doesn’t want to do that. The last thing he wants, though, is to fall for his best friend’s older brother—again.

Pack and family come first. Evan Steele knows that, and because of it, he lived a lie for years. He did things he regrets on the pack leader’s orders. Now, he’s put as much distance as he can between his past and his present. To humans, he is successful and confident.

But he hates shifting. He hates running on four feet.

When his past turns up at his door in the form of an anonymous hook-up, Evan’s lies come unstuck, and he’ll have to choose between putting himself first or obeying the pack who will hate him if they knew the truth.

This is the final book in the mm wolf shifter Outcast Pack series.

Morgana Fiennes, formidable witch and freelance operative, always works alone and never fails her clients. And she’s not about to break that record when the Seattle Police Department offers a lucrative contract to track down a monster-slaying weapon.

The catch? Her nemesis, the irresistibly enigmatic Arcturus Ravenna, a billionaire entwined with the very tech they're hunting, wants nothing to do with her. Time for a little persuasion…

Arcturus Ravenna, secretly descended from the ancient Greek monster Typhon, despises magic, thanks to a witch's curse that scarred him for life. Yet, with vulnerable monsters under attack, he's compelled to act—even collaborating with the captivating, spellbinding, blackmailing Morgana.

But amid the chaos, and as enemies become lovers, how can two alphas put aside their differences and distrust, and stop the real threat before it’s too late for all monsters—including them?

Can two lost souls complete one another?

Damaris Trant has never been alone…until now. Not only is he stuck on planet Earth, his six Strazanian comrades—rares with special powers just like him—are scattered around the city of New Faxian like confetti to avoid an enemy that has already wiped out the rest of their species. Damaris doesn’t even know if his comrades are still alive since landing on Earth.

Despite his purple scale coloring making him a lower caste, his rare powers, which had elevated his standing on his planet Strazan, are now erratic at best. Add to that the memories of his deceased family, and he’s rendered even more powerless.

Then he meets Callie, and his already topsy-turvy life is turned upside down. She’s an addict who sees things differently. That she doesn’t find Damaris abnormal is beyond appealing to his peace of mind. If only she didn’t also see him as just another man without a conscience.

After Callie Trueberry lost her family to a house fire, she fell into a dysfunctional world of her own making. Chemicals and alcohol might decay her mind, but at least she’s no longer half-mad with grief. Then she stumbles into Damaris and wishes she was the woman she used to be, a woman who would have turned his head and perhaps even won his heart. He is everything she’s ever wanted in a man, their shared grief binding them closer still. But will he stand by her side as she cleans her body and her mind while enemies are hunting him down, or will he be lost to her forever?

One sadistic madman substituted by another.

Chantilly

That’s what happened when I escaped from the don of the O’Malley mafia only to be captured by Valentino Barone, deadly enforcer of the Agostino mobster family. I didn’t think I could hate anyone more than the don who damaged me, until Valentino takes away my freedom yet again and awakens my darkest desires, ones I never knew existed. Escape seems futile. But I did it once I can do it again—or die trying.

Valentino

I was sent to find and kill Chantilly Alcott, fugitive lover of the don of a rival mafia who is desperate to find her. Ending her life and sending pieces of her body to the O’Malley family isn’t something that should bother me—it never has before—so why my reluctance to do my job? I will do it, eventually. For now, I hold her captive and tell myself I’ll break her spirit instead of her body.

So why is she slowly breaking me, instead?

Delilah

When my widowed stepmother kicked me out on the streets when I was sixteen, I was too proud to ask for help from any of my friends. Hunger left me with no choice but to accept money for sex so that I might survive. Four years later I’m not only surviving, I’m thriving. Asked to attend a private party at the Agostinos, a notorious mafia family who are as ruthless and cruel as they are filthy rich and generous, I can’t say no. Then my gaze meets the cold eyes of Serafino, and I’m lost even before he decides he wants all of me…body, mind and soul.

Serafino

I’m known as a cold-hearted killer without a conscience, the bad boy of the Agostino mafia. That says a lot considering my brothers can be as ruthless as my father had once been, and he’d been a sick and twisted bastard of the highest order. Nonetheless, I have a reputation to uphold. People are afraid of me for good reason. What would they think though if they discovered the call girl who arrived to service the Agostino brothers is the one woman I want all to myself—a woman I would kill to protect—until I’m left with no choice but to kill her myself.

Book 1, Sons of the Sheikh

Expected Release: 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.
