Isaac
I stood at the edge of the clock tower and held the most precious gift life could have given me in my arms. Her blonde hair whipped in the wind, obscuring my vision of her face, but I knew she was smiling. My lips brushed her left temple as I took in her heady scent. I hummed softly into her ear, “We’re going to be late, Little One.”
“Just a few more minutes,” Kennedy whispered in awe. “It’s even more beautiful up here during the day than at night.”
I tucked her in close to my body as a strong wind rippled her pink gown. “Don’t slip.”
She chuckled, pressing her head back against my chest. “Would you catch me?”
“Of course. But then we would have to go home since I would be naked.”
“We would really be late then.”
“Agreed.” I kissed her temple again, unable to get enough of this human. “I love you.”
“I love you too, Gargoyle.” Her blue eyes flicked up to mine, shining in the sunlight. “Can we come back here tonight after the wedding?”
I lifted a black brow. “Jackie won’t like you missing her reception afterward.”
Her grin was pure mischief. “We’ll sneak out.”
I tipped my head back and laughed. “You are a wicked human. It’s not every day your best friend gets married.”
My human waved an absent hand, her voice whisper soft. “Either way, we’ll be together.”
“Yes.” Another brush of my lips against her skin. I was damn greedy for her. “We will.”
Kennedy
I swayed to the music with the love of my life. Pure happiness kept a perpetual smile on my face. I leaned my head against
my man’s
hard pecs, and whispered, “How much longer do you think we should stay?”
Isaac chuckled quietly. “At least ten more minutes. She’s getting ready to cut the cake.”
My stomach growled. “Okay, we can stay for that.”
“I thought you might agree.” His fingers spread wide against my back, his hips swaying with mine to the gentle beat. “Your stomach has been talking to you for the last half hour. You should probably feed it.”
I shrugged a shoulder. “I want to dance with you.”
“And I’ll dance with you all night long.” His voice was a sensual purr. “I like the way you move.”
I grinned up at him, staring into his green eyes. “We can have cake anytime.” I grabbed his hand and dragged him behind me, laughing as I glanced over my shoulder. “I want to
dance
on top of the clock tower.”
His grin was sinful. “You were made for me.”
“Right back at you, Gargoyle.”

FALL
Thrown head first into a barbaric world she knows nothing of, Braita Valorn must adapt to a dark life as a slave of the Mian society--her existence depends on it.
SINK
Danger lurks, and Braita's lack of knowledge of the planet, Triaz, is now abundantly clear. On a mission to find her best friend, Jax, she must infiltrate the Crank Pit, a brutal complex where Mian enter, only to leave absent a heartbeat.
STOP
Braita Valorn is stuck. She has no real freedom, her existence dependent on what the men of Triaz decide. But she desperately wants it to be, and will do anything to capture it.
RISE
Judgments are made, an archaic stand within Mian laws, and Braita finds herself charged with treason. But never one to sit during a battle, she risks her last chance of release with blackmail.
SOAR
Braita Valorn is a disaster walking. One mistake after another on the planet Triaz has landed her in trouble time and again. Will Braita obtain her freedom? Or will she finally accept a life she never asked for?
Orphan, Lana Claire, drinks too much and parties too hard. Eighteen-years-old, and a wild child, Lana does whatever she wants, whenever she wants. When a crazy encounter at a new bar ends with bodies littering the ground, Lana wonders if she may have discovered a path that leads to answers she desperately needs.
Never one to walk blind, she treads carefully. What she finds is more than she ever hoped for. Lana knew she wasn't human, but an entire community of others like herself blows her mind. And the men! Heat and passion burn bright when Valan men are on the hunt for their mate, but Lana never expected to be the spark for two of their hottest playboys. More than ready to sizzle with the alphas of Valan, Lana does what she always does. She dives right in.
A fresh, meaty, sink-your-teeth-in-and-hold-on-tight new adult fantasy series kicks off with King Hall…
King Hall — where the Mysticals go to learn their craft, get their degrees, and transition into adulthood. And where four new Rulers will rise and meet their destinies.
Lily Ruckler is adept at one thing: survival. Born a Mystical hybrid, her mere existence is forbidden, but her nightmare is only about to start. Fluke, happenstance, and a deep personal loss finds Lily deeply entrenched with those who would destroy her simply for existing — The Mystical Kings. Being named future Queen of the Shifters shoves Lily into the spotlight, making her one of the most visible Mysticals in the world. But with risk comes a certain solace — her burgeoning friendships with the other three Prodigies: a wicked Vampire, a wild-child Mage, and a playboy Elemental. Backed by their faith and trust, Lily begins to relax into her new life.
Then chaos erupts as the fragile peace between Commoners and Mysticals is broken, and suddenly Lily realizes the greatest threat was never from within, and her fear takes on a new name: the revolution.
