***
I think it's important that you know this about me, that you understand this: I'm not sorry. I'd do it again.
After Mark Trevena's husband died eight years ago, he made vengeance his only purpose, his religion, his destiny. But to get to his enemy, he had to make himself like his enemy. Mortimer Cashel had a kingdom of secrets? Then Mark would make an empire. Mortimer Cashel had blood on his hands? Then Mark would bathe in it.
But Tristan and Isolde changed everything. Mark hadn't counted on wanting them, needing them; he hadn't counted on how it felt to watch the two of them fall in love. He'd thought he had everything under control – he'd thought he was safe from his own long-dead heart. He'd never imagined that the wronged husband, the jealous king from his childhood fairy tales, would be played by none other than himself.
It no longer matters what he used to believe. His enemy is ready to finish the game, and for the first time in eight years, Mark has pieces on the board he can't afford to lose. He'll burn the entire world to keep Tristan and Isolde safe. He'll scorch the earth – but as any good assassin will tell you, fire will only get a man so far, because there's always something left in the ashes. And for Tristan and Isolde, what's left in the ashes is the cold, bitter bones of the truth: their story begins and ends with Mark.
And every story needs a villain…
The spicy and dramatic conclusion to the Lyonesse trilogy is a no-holds-barred thrill ride in which Mark, Tristan and Isolde must untangle the forbidden love between them as the stakes grow higher than ever.

What happens in the dark never stays in the dark.
As one of Seattle's most dangerous, feared men, Zeth Mayfair has always carried out the jobs he's sent on without a second thought. Drugs? Guns? Dirty money? They're all fair game.

Sloane is desperate to find her missing sister, but all doors leading into the seedy underworld that took her are firmly closed in Sloane's face. Sloane's a trauma doctor: she wants information, a diagnosis, a plan. What she really needs is help ... but she'll also need to pay a price.
Zeth is terrifying, scandalously hot and comes fully loaded with a terrible attitude and wicked smile. He also looks like he's Sloane's only hope. Getting his help will require Sloane to risk everything ... including her heart.

Four ruthless vampires. Enemies by history. Allies by necessity. Bound by the gods themselves to…me.
Hidden in the human world, I was meant to live quietly, unaware of the power bound beneath my skin. But magic doesn't stay buried forever. Neither do secrets. When the bindings on my power begin to crack, the truth is finally set free-and so are the men fate tied me to.
The King of fire who would rather kill me than kiss me.
A Prince of starlight, my childhood friend, whose tie to me could cost him everything.
The King of ice, whose cruelty is only matched by his coldness.
And the King of earth and blood, whose feral nature and death toll is feared by every being in all four kingdoms.
These are the men destined to love me…if we can only stop trying to kill one another first.
But when the truth about me is uncovered, they say my power could fracture our world. That demons are hunting me. That war is coming-whether I'm ready or not.
What they don't say is how impossible it will be to resist.
Because the bond doesn't ask.
It claims.
And when my magic finally awakens, it won't just bind me to my destiny-it will decide the fate of the very realm.
