Blurb:
In a city of angels and demons, we learn who the real monsters are.
If Arija has to chase Kip down one more time, she just might kill him. But when she finds herself in the most beautiful city she’s ever seen, is it a paradise or is it hell?
Adal can’t believe he let Arija go into the portal alone. When he goes in looking for her, he finds himself in a hellscape. With a demon around every corner, Adal must find his girlfriend before it’s too late.
But someone watches from the shadows.
When heaven and hell collide, Adal and Arija must figure out who is there to help and who is a demon wearing an angel’s face. Will they solve the puzzle before it’s too late?
You’ll love this twisted tale reminiscent of The Labyrinth because of the betrayal, the temptation and the edge of your seat action.

creature out so we may start the ritual.” Ara winked as she stepped away from
Adal.

of Ypsilon’s mouth. It was gone so fast Adal wasn’t even sure it was real. His
stomach tightened, his nerves on edge as his friend squared off with the
succubus. Adal didn’t even hear the gunshot, the boom and muzzle flash almost masked
by the panicked and infuriated howls of the spectating mass of succubi.

Ara’s head rocked backwards as an
oily substance erupted into the air, spraying the floor all around her. Adal
only noticed that Rowan and Matilda had let go of him when his arms smacked
against the dark marble floor.

Ypsilon’s eyes were at half-mast
as she relished in what he presumed was her first kill of the night. The look
of pleasure on her face as she watched the smoke plume from the end of her
gun’s barrel was enough to make him grateful she was on his side.

were shrieking at the death of their leader.

Blurb:
The Fate of the world is in the hands of a fallen angel.
With a declining birth rate threatening to end humanity, three fallen angels fight to save it. The Angels of the Triad, the disgraced former protectors of Eve, are fearless in battle. But as demons gather strength, a prophecy is revealed that changes everything.
Sariel is lethal, and he knows it. Now the bitter angel must once again become a Protector, risking everything to guard Jenica a descendent of Eve. The fate of the world is tied to the life of a single woman, a petite blonde with a smile that could make angels fall.
Excerpt:
Chapter 1
Sariel watched
disinterestedly from the alley-way, as the human ran across the road, her long
hair flowing behind her like a white banner. Rain lashed down on him, splashing
off the long leather trench coat he wore, ice cold needles of water running
down his face and mingling with the blood that saturated his shirt.

hair flowing behind her like a white banner. Rain lashed down on him, splashing
off the long leather trench coat he wore, ice cold needles of water running
down his face and mingling with the blood that saturated his shirt.
Demon blood! The stuff
reeked like a sewer on a hot summer day. Even after thousands of years,
smelling the stuff still made his stomach roil. Brushing his hair from his face,
he stepped off the ledge of the tall apartment block, landing on the concrete
500 feet below with barely a whisper of air. Feeling eyes on him, he glanced to
his right to see Malak and Zagan.

he stepped off the ledge of the tall apartment block, landing on the concrete
500 feet below with barely a whisper of air. Feeling eyes on him, he glanced to
his right to see Malak and Zagan.
The pair were dressed
similarly to him, dark pants and long leather jackets, big heavy shitkickers on
their size 19 feet. Malak was the talker of the group—if he could get close
enough to someone, they would do whatever he willed. But then, they all had
that ability.

their size 19 feet. Malak was the talker of the group—if he could get close
enough to someone, they would do whatever he willed. But then, they all had
that ability.
As Angels from the
dawn of existence, they held a power that few humans could comprehend. But
Malak had a way of twisting the humans so that they did his bidding without
realizing they had been manipulated. His blonde hair and blue eyes, coupled
with an easy smile and hard body, made him seem approachable, especially to
women.

with an easy smile and hard body, made him seem approachable, especially to
women.
It was a mistake
people only made once. Malak was one of the Triad, as was Sariel. A group of
three Fallen Angels, banished to earth and stripped of their status as
Archangels by God for their sins. A sneer tipped his lips at the thought. He
and his brothers had been walking this earth for a Millenia, watching as God’s
children tore each other apart for lust and power, while he, Malak and Zagan
were punished for much less. But they had been Archangels and so, the
expectations placed on them were greater. They were to be beyond reproach,
expected to act with pure hearts and selfless souls.

Flicking the deadly

sure.

Sariel ignored his
angry outburst, watching the opening of the alley-way, with a guarded
expression. His senses were primed and tingling with the knowledge that Demons
were near. Gripping the dagger harder, his muscles tensed in readiness for the
coming fight.

as Sariel felt his brothers move, flanking him as they had done since time
began. Adrenaline spiked his blood, heightening his already supernaturally
expanded senses.

A shadow fell over the
exit, and he watched as five Demons ambled into the alley-way, their distinct
white blonde hair making them stand out in the stormy evening light. A growl
reached his ears, and he suppressed the urge to smile. These Demons were young,
the distinct stench of burned popcorn that followed them around not as strong
as older demons. They would be inept and inexperienced, but what they lacked in
fighting experience, they would make up for with enthusiasm.

This was just what he
needed—a good fight to take the edge off the fury that raged through him.
Killing the Demons night after night was accomplishing nothing, as they had
increased vastly in the last ten years.

Armed with the knowledge
that the demons were spreading a disease to human women, the Angels realized
that the situation was dire and more desperate than ever. Fighting them was not
enough; they needed to drive them back into the fiery pits of hell where they
belonged.

swung his arm up, blocking the blow from the knife his enemy carried. With an
upward arc of his arm, he slashed the demon’s throat, severing his carotid
artery. Blood spurted over him as he dropped the demon to the floor. Flipping
the demon over, he grasped the back of his neck, ripping the spinal cord that
contained the brain stem from his lifeless body. Throwing it to the wet, dank
ground, he watched as the body shriveled up before turning to dust.

There was only one way
to kill a demon, and that was to sever the spinal cord. Contrary to common
beliefs, the heart was not where the soul resided; instead it was found in the
tiny synapses that fired the brain, each thought, each memory locked into one
small neuron.

Sariel glanced at his
brothers. The remaining Demons were turning to ash at their feet. He was
disappointed that they hadn’t put up more of a challenge, finding himself
becoming more bored of late. Roaming the earth and killing demons and evil
spirits had lost its appeal, and he could feel himself becoming more jaded by
the hour.

“We need to follow the

else near her, except him.

Zagan tilted his head,
watching him intently, and Sariel met his hard gaze, unflinching. With a nod,
Malak and Zagan took to the air, their mighty black wings briefly casting a
shadow over the night sky before they disappeared.

It was a common
misconception that Angels with black wings were servants of Lucifer, but that
was only partly true. As on earth, there was a hierarchy. True Fallen Angels
who did terrible deeds were indeed banished to hell and chosen by Lucifer to do
the work of the Dark Lord, a final ‘fuck you’ to God from his disobedient
children. But Angels such as himself and his brothers, who had just not lived
up to God’s high standards, were banished to Earth to protect his proudest
creation, although in their case, they had been stripped of the Archangel
status and power as well.

They were also given
black wings, but they were always tipped in the color of their previous wings.
His were a beautiful gold, Zagan’s a peacock blue and Malak’s a vibrant purple.
They were easily recognizable and vastly known throughout the Universe as God’s
Protectors on Earth. This made them targets, with only their fierce skill and
feared reputation holding back all but the bravest or most stupid Demons or
Evil from attacking them.

Sariel kept his wings
closed, hidden from the view of humans, and instead followed the scent from the
white-haired human. She was a scientist who had inherited a relic from her
ancestors that could be the key to saving the humans from extinction—something
that the great man himself was determined would not be allowed to happen.

He caught her scent as
he crossed the crowded street, heading toward Grand Park and the Cathedral of

He watched from the shadows
of a derelict building as she moved about the kitchen, her movements light and
smooth as if floating. Something about her drew him, and he knew that he didn’t
want’ Zagan or, God forbid, Malek anywhere near her. Sariel had never felt
love, not in the same way humans did. He felt compassion and protection, but
never the soul-crushing feeling that humans described.

It wasn’t that his
kind were incapable of love, it was more that he chose to lock that part of him
away. Another component of the triad’s punishment was that they were forbidden
to act on feelings of love. The penalty meant giving up their immortal status
to become human. If they chose to walk away from a relationship, then the
human’s mind would be wiped, and they would not remember a second of what had
been shared. Love and lust was what had placed his brethren and himself into
this mess. By not controlling and watching Eve, she had broken the rules
allowing lust and sexual desire to taint what God had created.

Blurb:
Amy’s life was filled with heartache and loss. She searched for love, acceptance, and found it in a stranger, a drifter like herself. He loved her for her, but left, breaking her heart, but giving her a reason to go on. Amy struggled against the evil that surrounded her to protect her daughter. But lost her battle. Leaving her baby alone. She now fights God, and Michael, The Angel that broke her heart, to return to earth to protect her daughter from Satan himself. Will she be able to return home in time to save her daughter, or will a secret from her past keep her locked in her own private hell behind the gates of heaven?
Excerpt:
“I can’t be dead. Just look at me. Do I look the
angelic type?” Amy’s words fell on deaf ears.

“You can’t keep me here forever you know. I don’t

public. You have much to learn yet.”

“Open this, and read the first few chapters.”
She flipped through it and gasped. “You can’t be
serious. Happiness, peace. Where’s the chapter on fixing mistakes you’ve made?
And I’m not talking about mine.” Her temper began to flair, but his golden
light squashed it before she could let him have it. Not fair. She needed to go
back. Her daughter’s life depended on it and would agree to any terms put
before her. But there’s no chapter on returns either.

“This is a joke, right? You can’t expect me to be all
pleasant and thankful when my daughter is in danger. Emma won’t be able to resist
their ploy, fight their magic, she’s just a child. ” Amy hated the nightmare
she found herself in. And wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for Jenna, the witch
that she was.

Amy Waters wanted to throw anything she could get her hands on, but you can’t

“Amy,
you have been fighting us for months, and why?” Jacob passed in front of her.
She hated how he made it all look so graceful, peaceful. She just wanted to
pinch his holy head right off.

to do is fight, argue, tell us this was a mistake. You know he doesn’t like
that.” Jacob stood tall before her. His presence calming, like a drug, but not

The rooms were filling
fast, and the Ambulances kept coming with victims from the accident. Amy
grabbed the next gurney and took the report from the EMT as they raced to the
trauma bay. The driver, a woman, so young, was fighting for her life. Fear
ravaged her face. She was gasping, trying to talk, pointing to the door. Her
eyes widened and she grabbed Amy’s shirt, begging her to run. Amy shook off the
feeling of dread as the patient stopped breathing. Amy grabbed the Ambu bag,
turned on the oxygen, while the nurses started chest compressions. The paddles
were ripped from the defibrillator and Dr. Jackson yelled clear. Amy jumped
back, hands raised, but she was shoved forward, falling onto the
stretcher. Amy fought, but it was too
late. Dr. Jackson pressed the red button on the paddles and the last thing she
saw was Jenna, by the door, walking out of the room, invisible to everyone but
her. The witch wanted Emma. Now she has her and Amy was helpless from up here.

A simple mission turns deadly as the Daughter of Death is kidnapped by an old enemy seeking revenge. Now it’s up to me to find her and I will kill anyone who steps in my path.
The Son of Chaos isn’t playing. I’m armed, I’m pissed, and I want my Evangeline back. It’s time for Heaven and Hell to meet the real Archangel inside of me.
Everyone will pay.
Many will die.
Silver will slay.
And a new power will ascend from the Shadows…

“How are you feeling?”
“Irritated,” she replied, her blue eyes flaring.
I cocked a brow. “Irritated?”
“Yes.” She stared me down. “I’m naked, Xai.”
“I see that, Evangeline.”
“Do something about it.”
My lips twitched in amusement. “I would offer you my shirt,
but I’m not wearing one.” That seemed to be my constant state these days—bare
feet, jeans, and shirtless. Oddly, I didn’t miss my suits.

We didn’t make love. We fucked. Hard.
I widened my stance and taunted her with a doubtful look.
Her resulting growl went straight to my groin. Coupled with
her lack of clothes, well, my pants were suddenly feeling a bit tight.

Blurb:
Betwixt heaven and hell a world exists called earth. Otherwise known as the battlefield for souls.
Angelique is an Angel Soul Collector.
She collects the souls of those who died in fear, anger and pain. She is there to bear witness to the suffering, give comfort and hope and determine if they are worthy of heaven.
Some choose not to go with her and instead thirst for revenge; those refuse to give up their earthly ties and she leaves them to their fates. Some find satisfaction and will be given another chance to cross over, but most doom themselves to wander the earthly realm for an eternity. The ones who surrender to her, to the light, she opens the doorway and escorts them to a better life.
But then there are the others.
Nathanial is a Demon Soul Collector. He collects souls for his master from those who died in fear, anger and pain. Those who thirst for revenge he encourages to remain on earth and cause havoc. Others that have their names already written in his little red book he opens the gateway and shoves them straight into hell. For him it’s a job. He was born of a human father and demon mother and raised in hell to become a collector.
They are enemies. But once they were something else.
Excerpt:
He didn’t know what he’d looked like to the mortal men but
his rage burnt bright. He could see a red hue before him. The soldiers
straightened, their mouths opened in shock and their eyes held a hint of fear,
at the appearance of this seemingly young boy. One who radiated fire.
his rage burnt bright. He could see a red hue before him. The soldiers
straightened, their mouths opened in shock and their eyes held a hint of fear,
at the appearance of this seemingly young boy. One who radiated fire.
The men soon
learned he was anything but human. No need to hide what he was any longer. He
placed Angelique on the ground and drew the sword from the sheath he carried
between the obsidian colored wings at his back. No need to hide at all. His
hands glowed bright orange, the pain almost more than he could bear. Blood
seeped from his palms, he used the power in his blood as he used his blade to
channel powers born of hell. Red flame raced down the blade and shot hellfire,
coursing unerringly toward the beating hearts of the men. Spreading the stench
of burning flesh as they fell, leaving nothing but a pile of ash.

inspiration for Soul Collectors?
inspiration for Soul Collectors?
I wanted to explore two sides of the same job really. Both
the demons and the angels who collector souls. Yet they go about it in
different ways and of course the souls end up in different places. It’s easy
when the soul is destined for one or the other, but I wanted to explore those
who are on the fence, who can go either way. The first book in the Soul Collectors
is about the fight between a demonkin and a white wing over such a soul.

You say witch like it’s a bad thing.
When Hugh is yanked out of his warlock apprenticeship and summarily assigned to guard a human female, he is justly incensed.
But when a water demon snatches her from under his nose, he sets off on a desperate race to save her. and prove he is a warlock to be reckoned with.
Excerpt:
The Honorable Mary Bryght, eighteen-year-old daughter of the late Viscount Holywell, faltered and came to a startled halt. She’d
been traveling through the woods to her friend’s home to deliver some
astonishingly grand news about her brother. A sound drew her gaze toward a strand of willows that drank
from a small pond. There, a stranger in a dark cape watched her, tapping a
riding crop against his Hessians. At the malevolence emanating from him, the
hairs on Mary’s arms stood to attention.

from a small pond. There, a stranger in a dark cape watched her, tapping a
riding crop against his Hessians. At the malevolence emanating from him, the
hairs on Mary’s arms stood to attention.
In the space of one
glance, her mood shifted from cheerful to fearful. She swallowed, tasting
dread, and swiftly gauged how fast she must run to reach Rose’s cottage before
this stranger’s long strides reached her. She took one deep breath in readiness
to sprint, when the man appeared at her side, his large hand grasping her upper
arm so hard it pinched.

She cried out. He
dropped his riding crop and covered her mouth with his hand, swamping her
senses with a pungent aroma of horse sweat and leather.

Fifteen feet! That’s
how far away he’d been. Yet, he had closed the distance between them as if it

onto a gloved finger and with her free hand, punched his throat as her father
had taught her.

Something tinged with

horror cooled her skin like a bath of ice.

Blurb:
A mistake brought a demon to her, a promise bound them together.
Demon Dolan Ciar embodies three simple words: desire, denial, and destruction. Every two years, he is allowed one night of earthly passion to punish a deserving female. By the time he is finished, his victims are left as willing receptacles for demons yet to come.
Since she was four, a demon has been the only constant in Leora Desmond’s life, returning to her on every visit because of a promise he cannot break. Though he is in misery and suffering, as she grows he teaches her how to cope and to always go after what she wants. Now as an adult what Leora wants is wants Dolan, and she won’t be dissuaded.
Returning again to ask for his freedom, he finds a demanding Leora who insists he make her his next conquest. The ultimate retribution would be to take from her the ultimate symbol of her selfishness. Dolan must decide if he can doom her to life in living hell or face his own set of unearthly consequences, while Leora must choose between her pleasure and her heart.
The Promise blurs the line between good and evil, desire and love, and promises and commitment.
Excerpt:
Leora knew he was here
before she ever saw him. It was always the same, the tingle, the electric
sizzle that indicated his arrival intensified. “I know you’re here.” Leora
fought the urge to wrap her arms around herself and glance over her shoulder.
Instead, she put her hands on her hips and straightened up. The echo of her
designer stilettos tapping on the worn wood floor let out a much deeper and
richer tone than her normal work pumps, but he would notice the difference.

strong. At twelve, it was healing. By the time she was sixteen, she would have
called it sexy. Today, his voice was heated as it coiled around her, squeezing
her, making it hard to breathe.

Doubt. She wasn’t certain doubt was the right
word. More like anticipation. But always there was the nagging worry that he
wouldn’t show. She supposed her disbelief was her punishment for having
expectations. “No, you’ve never broken a promise to me. Not that I would allow
it.” Once she gained her composure, was able to slow down her heart just a bit,

Dolan never changed.
Her whole body froze, reacting to his presence and allowing herself the time to
take him in, though she knew every one of his features by heart.

Until she got older,
she didn’t realize how evil exuded from him. Different than monsters or devils,
his evil was shrouded in dirty blond hair that grazed his shoulders, a face
both masculine and beautiful, and one naughty dimple on the left side of his
smile. No one who saw him would ever suspect who or what they had encountered.

By the time she was a
pre-teen, she knew enough to realize his body was sinful. His tall frame filled
out his clothes, allowing her to assess every muscle, ridge and bulge. Tonight,
he stayed true to his classic fit and style choices in a pair of black jeans
and a matching button-down shirt. The only addition to his repertoire was her
grandfather’s ring, something he still wore on the fourth finger of his left
hand, as if to mock her.

Blurb:
Free will is for both angels and demons too.
Sandra lacked the tools to identify a scorned soul when doctors handed her a perfect rosy bundle. She had no clue that her progeny, called Lilith, was actually a demon set on reclaiming her rightful companion. As years passed, the humble woman did her best to ignore doubts that crawled at her like the insects Lilith’s angelic lover obsessed over. Even then, she wanted to believe she was wrong and that Lilly was merely peculiar. But in the City of Eden, where all things seemed to begin and end, nothing was ever that simple.
In truth, Sandra knew. She couldn’t ignore it when her cunning spawn cut into adult life with a long resume of tools: Manipulation at the top, viciousness at the bottom, lies all over. Ordinary skills were unnecessary. Lilly could always find someone to do her bidding. A woman like Lilith didn’t need a helpful companion. She was nothing to the mortal she’d been created for. Neither was the woman, and Lilith’s nemesis, who’d come after her – Eve.
***
Adam, an athletic blond-haired graduate student studying the natural habitat of insects, had better things to do than listen to the brass words of a spoiled vixen like Lilly. This, of course, only enticed her. Lilith was willing to do whatever it took to earn her destiny. And, more importantly, this time, keep him in spite of Eve. But Adam had a few tricks of his own. He had learned to be cautious when dealing with temptation. Now, he merely sought a suitable helper. In the City of Eden, where all things are created, everything is possible.
There was only one thing no creator had ever accounted for: The vengeance of a determined temptress and the blurred turns of time to identify exactly who was who.
Excerpt:
Eve smirked, reaching out her hand for Adam. Pulling on his
thick arm with her other hand, she couldn’t resist, “Come on Adam. This is just
too much. Tell me what it is! All this waiting is making me crazy.”

She’d tossed the next step right back at him, ignoring his
suggestion to bring her glass. He knew she was wondering why they were headed
for the studio as they’d promised no working today and the gallery wasn’t even
open. Mortal man of the flesh or not, Adam wasn’t stupid. He picked up her
glass, balancing it between the Chateau Lafite bottle and servant-made
card in his one free hand.

“I won’t Eva—he liked calling her that when it came to
serious matters simply because he could, and it made her twist her hair at the
ends—you’ll just have to wait until I show you.” They walked in giddy
anticipation to the entrance of the studio before Adam finally stopped. “Here, let’s
fill up our glasses for the coming toast, shall we?” he asked, finally holding
out the bottle and handing Eve her glass.

When the red juice was spilled perfectly into their glasses,
they continued on toward the painting. Adam could almost feel the heat coming
off Eve’s body and certainly his own. It was time.

With that, he pulled the sheet off the unfinished painting.
Eve sucked in a sharp stream of air. She held it as she
sipped at the myriad of colors on the thick canvas. She had no words as Adam
watched for her reaction. He could not resist soaking up every nuance of her
reaction: Her pink tongue wetting her lips, the way she moved with exaggerated
steps to get closer to it, how she tilted her head just enough to tell him she
was trying to make sense of it. Her blue eyes were wider than he’d ever seen
them.

Finally, she released her breath with an audible gush.
“Oh. My. God.” Eve’s free hand came up with delicate a
