A hundred years ago, the high sorcerer of Velensperia launched a swift and deadly attack against the draegans— a race of dragon shapeshifters who'd always lived in harmony with the humans. The draegans were all but destroyed, with the few who remained scattered and in hiding. Now, a group of them have united and begun to fight back. Their leader, Keiran Hareldson, seeks to free his people from the cruel repression the high sorcerer's reign has imposed on them.

Gaige Rizik is captain of the sorcerer's High Guard, and known for his lethal ability to hunt down his prey with no remorse. His orders are to infiltrate the draegan rebels’ camp, learn their plans, and identify their leader so he can be destroyed. But when Gaige joins the rebels, posing as a human sympathizer to the draegans’ cause, he discovers the shapeshifters aren't the bloodthirsty beasts he's been led to believe, and their leader is a passionately captivating man who only wants what's best for his people. Keiran sparks powerful emotions in Gaige, tearing down his walls of steely control, and stirring a longing in him he can't deny.

Torn between his duty to the high sorcerer and his growing feelings not only for Keiran, but for the draegan way of life, Gaige knows he's damned no matter which side he chooses. In a world of lies, deception, and dark secrets, one false move will bring destruction to all he's begun to hold dear. With the fate of so many lives on his shoulders, Gaige's only hope is to follow his heart... and pray it's true enough to save them all.

A mother will do anything to protect her children from harm— even break the law, if necessary. Tara Morgan is that mother. A desperate woman in a desperate situation. She won't let anything get in her way. Certainly not macho Mountie Brett Sinclair. And it doesn't matter a damn how good he kisses!

A half-naked woman asleep by the side of the road. An ex-lingerie model turned designer. Every man's fantasy. A damsel in distress. P.C. Sinclair's luck just changed. Or did it?

She's a mobster's ex on the run. Now she's in his house. In the next bedroom. What red-blooded male wouldn't want her? But is she too dangerous to love?

A story blazing with reluctant passion, bitter betrayal, ghostly retribution and the battle for a man's very soul...

A brilliant businessman...

Daniel Grogan is at the top of his game as he prepares to marry a wealthy socialite. But something goes wrong on his wedding day and his path takes a crazy turn toward strange visions of mountains and oceans, and a growing obsession about a woman he's never met face to face.

A rebellious rabbi...

Peggy Witwater entered the rabbinate to serve her people. When congregational politics deal her a vicious blow, she fights the tide of change while trying to help Daniel; not realizing her actions could ignite her own deeply buried obsessions.

Passion and vengeance from beyond the grave...

As the two are drawn toward one another, they fall under the shadow of a vengeful spirit who will stop at nothing to claim Daniel. To win the battle for his soul, Daniel must acknowledge past wrongs, or risk falling into an eternal— and fatal— enchantment.
