13: Dark Guardian’s Mate
Prepare for the heart-warming culmination of Eva and Bhathian's story!
14: Dark Angel's Obsession
The cold and stoic warrior is an enigma even to those closest to him. His secrets are about to unravel...
15: Dark Angel's Seduction
Brundar is fighting a losing battle. Calypso is slowly chipping away his icy armor from the outside, while his need for her is melting it from the inside.
He can't allow it to happen. Calypso is a human with none of the Dormant indicators. There is no way he can keep her for more than a few weeks.
16: Dark Angel's Surrender
Get ready for the heart pounding conclusion to Brundar and Calypso's story.
Callie still couldn't wrap her head around it, nor could she summon even a smidgen of sorrow or regret. After all, she had some memories with him that weren't horrible. She should've felt something. But there was nothing, not even shock. Not even horror at what had transpired over the last couple of hours.
Maybe it was a typical response for survivors--feeling euphoric for the simple reason that they were alive. Especially when that survival was nothing short of miraculous.
Brundar's cold hand closed around hers, reminding her that they weren't out of the woods yet. Her injuries were superficial, and the most she had to worry about was some scarring. But, despite his and Anandur's reassurances, Brundar might never walk again.
If he ended up crippled because of her, she would never forgive herself for getting him involved in her crap.
"Are you okay, sweetling? Are you in pain?" Brundar asked.
Her injuries were nothing compared to his, and yet he was concerned about her. God, she loved this man. The thing was, if she told him that, he would run off, or crawl away as was the case.
Hey, maybe this was the perfect opportunity to spring it on him.
17: Dark Operative: A Shadow of Death
As a brilliant strategist and the only human entrusted with the secret of immortals' existence, Turner is both an asset and a liability to the clan. His request to attempt transition into immortality as an alternative to cancer treatments cannot be denied without risking the clan's exposure. On the other hand, approving it means risking his premature death. In both scenarios, the clan will lose a valuable ally.
When the decision is left to the clan's physician, Turner makes plans to manipulate her by taking advantage of her interest in him.
Will Bridget fall for the cold, calculated operative? Or will Turner fall into his own trap?
18: Dark Operative: A Glimmer of Hope
As Turner and Bridget’s relationship deepens, living together seems like the right move, but to make it work both need to make concessions.
Bridget is realistic and keeps her expectations low. Turner could never be the truelove mate she yearns for, but he is as good as she’s going to get. Other than his emotional limitations, he’s perfect in every way.
Turner’s hard shell is starting to show cracks. He wants immortality, he wants to be part of the clan, and he wants Bridget, but he doesn’t want to cause her pain.
His options are either abandon his quest for immortality and give Bridget his few remaining decades, or abandon Bridget by going for the transition and most likely dying. His rational mind dictates that he chooses the former, but his gut pulls him toward the latter. Which one is he going to trust?
19: Dark Operative: The Dawn of Love
Get ready for the exciting finale of Bridget and Turner’s story!
20: Dark Survivor Awakened
This was a strange new world she had awakened to.
Her memory loss must have been catastrophic because almost nothing was familiar. The language was foreign to her, with only a few words bearing some similarity to the language she thought in. Still, a full moon cycle had passed since her awakening, and little by little she was gaining basic understanding of it--only a few words and phrases, but she was learning more each day.
A week or so ago, a little girl on the street had tugged on her mother's sleeve and pointed at her. "Look, Mama, Wonder Woman!"
The mother smiled apologetically, saying something in the language these people spoke, then scurried away with the child looking behind her shoulder and grinning.
When it happened again with another child on the same day, it was settled.
Wonder Woman must have been the name of someone important in this strange world she had awoken to, and since both times it had been said with a smile it must have been a good one.
Wonder had a nice ring to it.
She just wished she knew what it meant.
21: Dark Survivor Echoes of Love
Wonder’s journey continues in Dark Survivor Echoes of Love.
22: Dark Survivor Reunited
The exciting finale of Wonder and Anandur's story.
23: Dark Widow’s Secret
Vivian and her daughter share a powerful telepathic connection, so when Ella can’t be reached by conventional or psychic means, her mother fears the worst.
Help arrives from an unexpected source when Vivian gets a call from the young doctor she met at a psychic convention. Turns out Julian belongs to a private organization specializing in retrieving missing girls.
As Julian's clan mobilizes its considerable resources to rescue the daughter, Magnus is charged with keeping the gorgeous young mother safe.
Worry for Ella and the secrets Vivian and Magnus keep from each other should be enough to prevent the sparks of attraction from kindling a blaze of desire. Except, these pesky sparks have a mind of their own.
24: Dark Widow’s Curse
A simple rescue operation turns into mission impossible when the Russian mafia gets involved. Bad things are supposed to come in threes, but in Vivian's case, it seems like there is no limit to bad luck. Her family and everyone who gets close to her is affected by her curse.
Will Magnus and his people prove her wrong?
25: Dark Widow’s Blessing
The thrilling finale of the Dark Widow trilogy!
26: Dark Dream’s Temptation
Julian has known Ella is the one for him from the moment he saw her picture, but when he finally frees her from captivity, she seems indifferent to him. Could he have been mistaken?
Ella’s rescue should’ve ended that chapter in her life, but it seems like the road back to normalcy has just begun and it’s full of obstacles. Between the pitying looks she gets and her mother’s attempts to get her into therapy, Ella feels like she’s typecast as a victim, when nothing could be further from the truth. She’s a tough survivor, and she’s going to prove it.
Strangely, the only one who seems to understand is Logan, who keeps popping up in her dreams. But then, he’s a figment of her imagination—or is he?
27: Dark Dream’s Unraveling
While trying to figure out a way around Logan's silencing compulsion, Ella concocts an ambitious plan. What if instead of trying to keep him out of her dreams, she could pretend to like him and lure him into a trap?
Catching Navuh’s son would be a major boon for the clan, as well as for Ella. She will have her revenge, turning the tables on another scumbag out to get her.
28: Dark Dream’s Trap
The trap is set, but who is the hunter and who is the prey? Find out in this heart-pounding conclusion to the Dark Dream trilogy.
29: Dark Prince’s Enigma
As the son of the most dangerous male on the planet, Lokan lives by three rules:
Don’t trust a soul.
Don’t show emotions.
And don’t get attached.
Will one extraordinary woma
n make him break all three?
30: Dark Prince’s Dilemma
Will Kian decide that the benefits of trusting Lokan outweigh the risks?
Will Lokan betray his father and brothers for the greater good of his people?
Are Carol and Lokan true-love mates, or is one of them playing the other?
So many questions, the path ahead is anything but clear.
31: Dark Prince’s Agenda
While Turner and Kian work out the details of Areana's rescue plan, Carol and Lokan's tumultuous relationship hits another snag. Is it a sign of things to come?
32 : Dark Queen’s Quest
A former beauty queen, a retired undercover agent, and a successful model, Mey is not the typical damsel in distress. But when her sister drops off the radar and then someone starts following her around, she panics.
Following a vague clue that Kalugal might be in New York, Kian sends a team headed by Yamanu to search for him.
As Mey and Yamanu’s paths cross, he offers her his help and protection, but will that be all?
33: Dark Queen’s Knight
As the only member of his clan with a godlike power over human minds, Yamanu has been shielding his people for centuries, but that power comes at a steep price. When Mey enters his life, he's faced with the most difficult choice.
The safety of his clan or a future with his fated mate.
34: Dark Queen’s Army
As Mey anxiously waits for her transition to begin and for Yamanu to test whether his godlike powers are gone, the clan sets out to solve two mysteries:
Where is Jin, and is she there voluntarily?
Where is Kalugal, and what is he up to?
35: Dark Spy Conscripted
Jin possesses a unique paranormal ability. Just by touching someone, she can insert a mental hook into their psyche and tie a string of her consciousness to it, creating a tether. That doesn’t make her a spy, though, not unless her talent is discovered by those seeking to exploit it.
36: Dark Spy’s Mission
Jin’s first spying mission is supposed to be easy. Walk into the club, touch Kalugal to tether her consciousness to him, and walk out.
Except, they should have known better.
37: Dark Spy’s Resolution
The best-laid plans often go awry...
38: Dark Overlord New Horizon
Jacki has two talents that set her apart from the rest of the human race.
She has unpredictable glimpses of other people’s futures, and she is immune to mind manipulation.
Unfortunately, both talents are pretty useless for finding a job other than the one she had in the government’s paranormal division.
It seemed like a sweet deal, until she found out that the director planned on producing super babies by compelling the recruits into pairing up. When an opportunity to escape the program presented itself, she took it, only to find out that humans are not at the top of the food chain.
Immortals are real, and at the very top of the hierarchy is Kalugal, the most powerful, arrogant, and sexiest male she has ever met.
With one look, he sets her blood on fire, but Jacki is not a fool. A man like him will never think of her as anything more than a tasty snack, while she will never settle for anything less than his heart.
39: Dark Overlord’s Wife
Jacki is still clinging to her all-or-nothing policy, but Kalugal is chipping away at her resistance. Perhaps it’s time to ease up on her convictions. A little less than all is still much better than nothing, and a couple of decades with a demigod is probably worth more than a lifetime with a mere mortal.
40: Dark Overlord’s Clan
As Jacki and Kalugal prepare to celebrate their union, Kian takes every precaution to safeguard his people. Except, Kalugal and his men are not his only potential adversaries, and compulsion is not the only power he should fear.
41: Dark Choices The Quandary
When Rufsur and Edna meet, the attraction is as unexpected as it is undeniable. Except, she's the clan's judge and councilwoman, and he's Kalugal's second-in-command. Will loyalty and duty to their people keep them apart?
42: Dark Choices Paradigm Shift
Edna and Rufsur are miserable without each other, and their two-week separation seems like an eternity. Long-distance relationships are difficult, but for immortal couples they are impossible. Unless one of them is willing to leave everything behind for the other, things are just going to get worse. Except, the cost of compromise is far greater than giving up their comfortable lives and hard-earned positions. The future of their people is on the line.
43: Dark Choices The Accord
The winds of change blowing over the village demand hard choices. For better or worse, Kian’s decisions will alter the trajectory of the clan’s future, and he is not ready to take the plunge. But as Edna and Rufsur’s plight gains widespread support, his resistance slowly begins to erode.
44: Dark Secrets Resurgence
On a sabbatical from his Stanford teaching position, Professor David Levinson finally has time to write the sci-fi novel he’s been thinking about for years.
The phenomena of past life memories and near-death experiences are too controversial to include in his formal psychiatric research, while fiction is the perfect outlet for his esoteric ideas.
Hoping that a change of pace will provide the inspiration he needs, David accepts a friend’s invitation to an old Scottish castle.
45: Dark Secrets Unveiled
When Professor David Levinson accepts a friend’s invitation to an old Scottish castle, what he finds there is more fantastical than his most outlandish theories. The castle is home to a clan of immortals, their leader is a stunning demigoddess, and even more shockingly, it might be precisely where he belongs.
Except, the clan founder is hiding a secret that might cast a dark shadow on David’s relationship with her daughter.
Nevertheless, when offered a chance at immortality, he agrees to undergo the dangerous induction process.
Will David survive his transition into immortality? And if he does, will his relationship with Sari survive the unveiling of her mother’s secret?
46: Dark Secrets Absolved
Absolution.
David had given and received it.
The few short hours since he’d emerged from the coma had felt incredible. He’d finally been free of the guilt and pain, and for the first time since Jonah’s death, he had felt truly happy and optimistic about the future.
He’d survived the transition into immortality, had been accepted into the clan, and was about to marry the best woman on the face of the planet, his true love mate, his salvation, his everything.
What could have possibly gone wrong?
Just about everything.
47: Dark haven Illusion
Welcome to Safe Haven, where not everything is what it seems.
On a quest to process personal pain, Anastasia joins the Safe Haven Spiritual Retreat.
Through meditation, self-reflection, and hard work, she hopes to make peace with the voices in her head.
This is where she belongs.
Except, membership comes with a hefty price, doubts are sacrilege, and leaving is not as easy as walking out the front gate.
Is living in utopia worth the sacrifice?
Anastasia believes so until the arrival of a new acolyte changes everything.
Apparently, the gods of old were not a myth, their immortal descendants share the planet with humans, and she might be a carrier of their genes.
48: Dark Haven Unmasked
As Anastasia leaves Safe Haven for a week-long romantic vacation with Leon, she hopes to explore her newly discovered passionate side, their budding relationship, and perhaps also solve the mystery of the voices in her head. What she discovers exceeds her wildest expectations.
In the meantime, Eleanor and Peter hope to solve another mystery. Who is Emmett Haderech, and what is he up to?
