Wicked Magic

Hunters are supposed to hate vampires—but everyone will betray their people for a price. Nathan is about to discover his.
Nathan is a vampire hunter on the cusp of graduation. He’s been training for this his entire life: the moment he qualifies and joins the rest of his family in their noble calling.
If only it were that simple.
His grades are a mess, his social life is a disaster, and what’s worse, his best friend is a witch! Add to that, his vampire uncle is back in town and his crush might just be supernatural too, and you have one big melting pot of potential parental disapproval. Nathan doesn’t think he can take much more, and then the dark mages come to town.
As bodies begin piling up in the streets, Nathan finds himself pulled deeper into political intrigue and a deadly plot that will pit him against his own family. When the girl he likes comes under threat, Nathan races against time to solve the mystery... well aware that with every step he takes, he comes closer to his father exposing all his secrets.

Wicked Blood

Cynthia has never met her father. She only knows one thing about him: he’s a dangerous mage with a track record of killing shapeshifters like her.

Finished with school and struggling to figure out what to do next, Cynthia boards a plane to Berlin following a mysterious postcard from her father. She hopes to find him and finally solve the mystery of her origins. But then Nathan, her vampire hunter ex-boyfriend, asks for a favour. Look up the hunters in Berlin and find out why there’s been radio silence from the supernatural community of Berlin for the last eight months.

What should have been a simple request leads to unimaginable danger.

The more Cynthia digs into the whereabouts of Berlin’s supernatural community, the more she uncovers secrets that threaten her life. Something is going down in Berlin, but who is behind it? She finds herself torn in two directions: should she be loyal to her people, the shapeshifters? Or should she follow her heart? Which choice will keep her safe, when everyone seems to be out for her blood?

It’s a dangerous time to be in Berlin… and the answers to Cynthia’s questions might just strike closer to home than she realises.

Rise

All I want is to keep my sister safe, but in a small town on the edge of the wastelands, what can one waitress do?
Two years ago, I danced for the local gang. Now I’ve escaped that life but, to keep the peace, I pass them information. If you misbehave in my bar, you can bet I’ll be telling on you. It doesn’t seem like much of a sacrifice until a mysterious new boy comes to town. As I delve deeper into his past, I start uncovering terrifying plots brewing in my small town.
The local gang has always maintained their power with an iron fist, and now that is under threat. But my allies see me as nothing more than a former dancer, and it seems like no one will believe me. Who do I turn to? Ellery, the man who helped me escape the gang, or Bas, the principled but enigmatic new member, who seems to push all of my buttons?
People I thought I could trust are turning out to be enemies in disguise, and people I was certain were dangerous seem to want me on their team. I don’t know where to turn. I don’t know who is a friend and who a foe.
What I do know is this: when the dust settles, the only person I can rely on to have my back… is me.

Revolution

Freedom comes at a price. When the time comes, will I be able to pay it?

Danger is stirring in Bale Rocks.

Maddock’s arrival seems to have triggered something. Light is shining into the cracks of our society, and more skeletons are being exposed than I could possibly have imagined.

Percival and the Aces have spies everywhere.

The mayor seems to be collaborating with notorious slave traders the Black Hands.

The Iron Fists’ grip on power is slipping with every day that goes by.

As I battle to keep myself and my sister safe, the mistakes begin piling up. It seems like if I make one wrong move, my whole life will go up in flames. The answer lies in convincing Bas of the secrets I’ve uncovered, but after what I’ve put him through, I don’t know if he will ever trust me again.

As things come to a head, can I find a path to preserve the peace in my town and keep my family safe, or will the price of my freedom spell disaster for the people I care about?

Redemption

The dust has settled after the attack on the distillery, and things are looking up. Despite trouble from the military, it seems like we will make it through the winter.
But then a brutal murder rocks my small world, and suddenly nothing is certain anymore.
Separated from the one person I hold dear, I am forced to journey further and push harder for answers than I ever have before. But when we find ourselves backed into a corner, my small group of allies starts to fracture under the pressure. With new lies coming to light at every turn, I’m beginning to doubt whether I can trust the people I thought were my friends.
Worse, with new threats I don’t fully understand, my skills won’t be enough to keep me alive—I don’t have a choice but to rely on my frenemy, Bas.
Can we expose the secrets we need to save ourselves? And if we do, will there be anything left of our old lives to return to?

Revenge

Keep your friends close. Keep your enemies closer.

Sayle has fallen and Jackson has taken over the Iron Fists—and with them, control of the entire town.

Bas and I have been pushed out, exiles with no hope of returning home.

Worse, I know Jackson isn’t the only threat. Dean Hannover manipulates people like a puppeteer pulling threads, the landscape of power is ever shifting, and there are whispers of a new threat like nothing we’ve seen before.

I want my revenge. Bas wants his. And we both want our home back. But to claim it, we’ll have to fight from the shadows. We’ll have to trust people we hate. And we’ll have to do things that will secure us a place in hell.

This is my town, this is my story. I will get it back, or I will die fighting.
