Excerpt: A Kiss of Blood

A thought struck Deidra out of the blue, like one of those sneak attacks Tristen sometimes sprung on her in the middle of training. Supposedly he did it to keep her on her toes, although she suspected he was only trying to have some fun when he grew bored. This surprised her quite as much, for she truly had not seen it coming. Tristen wasn’t just complimenting her. He was flirting with her. He might […]

Excerpt: Aria & Will

The door just a few feet to Wilhelm’s right kept opening and closing with the flow of visitors, an incessant ballet to which he was all but oblivious. At first, most were going in. Wounded humans who had realized that the small cut they had wanted to put a bandage on might need a few stitches after all. Friends, humans and vampires alike, who were coming to check on those soldiers who had been taken […]

Excerpt: Saving Marigold

“Can you hear her thoughts?” Kit asked, reminding Chris abruptly that he wasn’t alone. “Not yet, that’s not how it works for me. I have to touch her skin to have access to her mind.” And he might as well get on with it, he told himself forcefully. The sooner he started, the faster he could get out of here and forget this whole thing. Sitting on the edge of the bed, he slowly reached […]

Excerpt: Freeing Heather

She often felt like she wasn’t doing enough to help the people who’d taken her in without questions, especially when groups like Violet’s came in and she could hear them talking about saving people whose only fault was, like everyone in Sanctuary, to be gifted with a paranormal power. The thing was, while her own power was somehow more interesting than being able to pour a perfect cup of coffee, it still wasn’t anything impressive. […]

Excerpt: Exiled

Should she get dressed? Her clothes were mostly dry, but they smelled like stale water—hardly an attractive scent. The bathrobe might be old, but if she decided to seduce Glenn, it’d be easy to loosen the belt a little and show off her cleavage and legs enough to be suggestive without being crass. If you decide? Who are you trying to fool? You had your sights set on him before you even met him. That […]

Excerpt: Burning Violet

“Show me,” he demanded a little gruffly. She’d never been shy a day in her life, so why did it suddenly seem like her face would burst into flames at the thought that she was next to him wearing no more than a bathrobe, and about to show some skin to him? She hadn’t worn anything more than her feathers all day, and yet she suddenly felt very exposed. She wove her feathers close to […]

Excerpt: Sharing Hazel

“He’s a brat,” he repeated. “He didn’t say how he was caught, but I can tell you what happened. He was showing off. Trying to impress a girl. I’d bet anything on it.” She frowned at him, confused. Was this the same man she’d spent years with? The man she still loved even now? The man who’d made it his life’s calling to help people unjustly imprisoned for no other reason than they had paranormal […]

Excerpt: Chasing Rose

By ten minutes after seven, only the guests of honor were still missing. When the next knock came, Lily went to open the door herself. Rose’s flight instinct slammed back into her, but before she could act on it her mother and the two emissaries entered the sitting room, with Fleur apologizing for their lateness. “I’m afraid my colleague insisted on finding a florist before we could come,” she was explaining. “Young men. You know […]
