Book excerpt: Kit Colbana—half breed, assassin, thief, jack of all trades. Master of none. Or so she’d always been led to believe. Over the past few years, Kit Colbana has dispatched some of the worst threats the non-human races could have imagined. Pandora—a mother of monsters. Puck, a father of nightmares. Jude, a vampire who nearly drove Kit to the brink of insanity. Then there was the Lemera, an ages-old creature of myth, born from Kit’s own people, an unseen, undead assassin that hunts without rest, kills without remorse. Yet Kit walked away. Her grandmother’s pet assassin failed to kill her so Kit wasn’t surprised when yet another unwanted memory from her past shows up, looking to take her down. But her blood-hungry, homicidal aunt disappeared without a trace only hours after arrival. Is it a reprieve? Or something far worse? Kit’s lover Damon is keeping secrets. Her grandmother’s pet assassin, the Lemera, seems to have taken a liking to Kit. And her grandmother, Kit’s own worst nightmare, is haunting her dreams. They’re all on a collision course with fate and it can only end one way...bloody.

There is a world you don't know about, inhabited by supernatural creatures of darkness—vampires, werewolves, and all manner of savage, impossible beasts that live for terror and slaughter and blood.

Book excerpt: Haunted, Hunted...and harassed. Never let it be said that Kit Colbana had ever been given the easy road. Or even the semi-paved road. Only weeks after dealing with the mysterious—and murderous—being called Puck, she’s got another killer on her hands. Perhaps even two. Some of the bodies turning up bring up haunting memories of a past she longs to forget, but as always, that past is chasing her at her heels, like a hated shadow. As the body count racks up, there’s an imbalance of power, particularly among the vampire population, and Kit must yet again deal with ugly memories as one of the monsters who tried to break her is set free to deal with the imbalance of power. Yet while a power struggle rages in East Orlando, there’s another, more subtle battle taking place and Kit feels like the center of it all. Arrogant? Maybe. But the dead bodies don’t bear the mark of her grandmother’s pet killer by sheer coincidence...and she doubts her nemesis being released is either.

And she’s struggling to fit in with the group of vampires that invited her to join their conclave. These same vampires make their second thoughts clear in the whispers and sidelong glances when she enters the room. But Mina doesn’t need their whispers to tell her she’s different. She hears it when her blood sings and feels it when her gut twists, fighting a losing battle against the monster inside. The monster she’s doomed to become. And now bodies are turning up, sucked so dry they look like mummies. It’s not the gargoyles: they leave a mangled, gnawed-on corpse...if they leave a corpse at all. Instead, a new evil stalks the night. The best clue to its identity are the dying words of a homeless man, raving about the reign of night, the death of light and a blade of darkness. Can Mina unravel the riddle, find this new evil and save her friend without releasing the monster inside?
