Book excerpt: The chaos spirit had chosen the child Alexander to be its human host. But Parmenion, most powerful warrior of ancient Greece, had won a small victory over the darkness that sought to rule through Alexander. The boy's soul had not been destroyed by evil, but instead had merged with it -- and now Parmenion aided Alexander in the battle between light and dark that constantly raged within him. But there was another world, where the creatures of Greece's legends still flourished. There, the chaos spirit already ruled, through a demon king. In this Greece, there was a prophecy that a child of great power, the legendary golden child, would come and restore the fading magic of the land to the creatures of myth. The demon king believed also that devouring the heart of this fabled child would give him immortality. He believed Alexander, with the power of the chaos spirit within him, to be that child. And so he called Alexander into his world . . . Only Parmenion, guided by the seeress Derae, his lost love from another life, could hope to save Alexander from the demon king. But who could save the young prince from the chaos spirit that threatened to conquer his soul?

They gave him immortality — and an undying hunger for human blood. Since then, Sullivan has been on the prowl. And what better place for a night creature than modern San Francisco, its streets crowded with runaways, drifters, tourists, violent gangs, and nameless punks? Food is plentiful. Even food for the darkest hungers of the inhuman heart. But San Francisco is more than just a hunting ground. Known as the Casablanca of the World of Darkness because it is home to so many competing vampire clans that have heretofore existed in relative peace, it is on the verge of becoming the locus for many schemes of immortals both within the city and beyond. And when Sullivan falls victim to their plots and is accused of diablerie, vampire cannibalism, he discovers how easily the hunter can become…the hunted.

Book excerpt: Once upon a time, iron kept the fae from wandering the sunlit realm. But over the millennia, iron gave way to steel, and now the fae are unbound. Welcome to the Court of the Steel-Born Fae… She has lost her inner beast. After a traumatic wounding, tigress shifter Yelena Morozova can’t find her way back to the verita luna—the Second Truth that is a wereling’s heart and soul. Worse yet, if she can’t reconcile her shifting selves, her beloved half-sisters will remain trapped in Siberian exile. But when she falls through a watery fairy ring into the faedrealii—the long-lost court of the fae—she finds more threatening changes than even her brave tigress heart might survive. He has lost control of the steel-born fae. The wicked queen’s court is out of control, and Arazael—known to the fearful and the dead as Raze the Ruiner—sees only one way to hold on: hide the court away from the temptations of the sunlit realm. During the Iron Wars, as the fae were losing ground to the encroaching humans, Raze helped create the sanctuary of the faedrealii. To fulfill his vows to his brother who would have been king, Raze will lock the wards once and for all, though it will take every last drop of his magic-infused blood. The dark prince finds a stray cat—and a love that might end him and the fae. As Arazael and Yelena seek to unravel each other’s secrets, they realize their shared entrapment—he in the fae court he helped create and fears to abandon, she in the labyrinth of her wounded verita luna—brought them together. Now his dark, sensual touch delights her inner cat, and her golden pleasure tempts him with all the delights of the sunlit realm—passions that once threatened to destroy the court. But a spiraling imbalance between the worlds of man and magic, between light and illusion, might tear apart the world—and two lonely hearts—forever. __ For readers who enjoy: paranormal fantasy romance of fairy-tale happily ever afters, shorter novella length stories of fey royalty, kings, queens, and princes in exile, and shapeshifting shifters, with magic, spells, charms, enchantments, and broken hearts healed by a rare chance at love.
