A human, a hellhound, and an archangel walk into a bar...sounds like the first line to a joke, right? Only it's no joke. It's my damned life. Witches are running riot. Shifters are on the hunt. Demons are eating humans. There's a new drug on the street. Sigil is dark and deadly to the paranormal kind, opening up their second sight, urging them to maim, torture, and kill. And the bodies are piling up.

Lucifer, the Lord of Hell, has reappeared into my life, and he owes a shit ton of alimony. Twenty-five years worth to be exact, timed from the day he walked out on me and my mother and never looked back. And I plan on making his life a living Hell until he pays up. He just smiles, ruffles my hair, and tells me I'm cute when I'm angry. But anger isn't all that's rising to the surface with this surprise reunion. The seal on my past has been broken, and the skeletons in the closet are coming out to play. Dark secrets that involve my mother and the circumstances surrounding her death.

The Circle's job was to protect the innocent. But what happens when the innocent aren't exactly what they seem? What happens when they become the Nine? Gabriel can't bring himself to look at me. Broken wings. Broken will. Titus lays in a hospital bed, with the vultures hovering close. Rival stands beside me...but he may as well be on the other side of the world for all the lies that divide us. They killed my family. They tortured those I love. I won't wait for death to come for Titus. I'll become the monster they feared and hunt them down.

I'm a prisoner in the Unseelie world. The bars of my prison my portal to home. The Queen of Air and Darkness my judge, jury...and executioner. I must pay for my crimes, she tells me - for all my sins. And while I wait in this cold, dark Hell, my father has the real murderer, the Unseelie Prince, Absolon. Lucifer won't hurt him, even when Absolon laughs in his face. For my life hangs in the balance....

He captured my wrist, smooth black leather against my skin. The kiss was hungry, and urgent. His hard chest pressed me against the bricks and before I knew it, my hand rising to meet the wall. He had me. Gloved hand pinning my wrists above me. His finger at my temple. And his lips taking...taking...taking. The Hidden, we call them. Four Vampires who run this city west of the river. And my family runs the east.

I was their payment on a debt...and they were my salvation. My vampires dragged me from the river and brought me back to life, and in turn I saved the one man who gave his life for me...my bodyguard. Only to save him will be to turn him into the monster he despises. With Unseelie Fae blood in his veins, Russell locks himself away until danger comes for me once more. I vowed revenge on those who tried to destroy us. I’ll make them pay with five merciless Immortals at my side. Because to them, I’m not a possession...to them I am forever.

The ticking in my head won’t stop. Like a bomb ready to explode. My dad has called me Spark since the day they found me wandering down a dark country road when I was nine years old. I was raised with questions. But my parents aren’t just any parents. My mother becomes a senator, and starts asking questions.

Melkor, son of the finest hellhound leader, wanted retribution for his father’s death. What he got was a mortal woman at his side. He got me. I was blessed by the Lord of Hell and given powers by the Nephilim leader Arrow. Powers I’ll have to learn to control. And as the Soulless escape Hell and descend upon the mortal realm, I’ll learn to become a hunter and tackle whatever the immortal world can throw my way.

Ever sent a letter to the wrong person by mistake? I did, when I was eight years old, and then I was visited by the Lord of Hell himself. But there was no real mistake. Not then when I was just a kid, and not now that I’m a woman. I wanted a puppy for Christmas. And a puppy is what I got. Only, Melkor, son of the Lord of Hell’s finest hellhound warrior, was given to me not as a gift, but as a guardian. And when Melkor goes missing, I’m given the only option a best friend has.

The blinding light of Heaven is no salvation. Its white walls, my prison. Its gate, the entrance to my cell. But I don’t belong here. I never have. Four archangels took me from my bed at the Convent of Heavenly Christos. They chained my hands and feet and carried me on their broad backs, with mammoth wings beating the air into submission. They brought me here, because of a secret I cannot remember. A secret so powerful it’ll start a war between Heaven and Hell. So, I do the only thing I can - I run.

There’s a place from my nightmares. A place where bad things hide. The memories kept me awake for most of my life. But it’s not what keeps me awake anymore. It’s her. She calls me, desperate and pleading. Like a shining star I can’t quite find. I feel those men from my nightmares coming for her. Only, she can’t sense them. She can’t see. Not the past. Or the future. Unlike me. Until one day, as I stood in a doorway in the barren wasteland in Afghanistan with my squad at my back. My star dimmed and sputtered out. 

The Calling Series includes two books: Pestilence and War. The apocalypse isn't just coming. It's already here. Four riders are hunting a fallen woman. One that'll seal the world's fate. They'll leave behind utter devastation in their wake. Pestilence. War. Famine. Death. Harlow Morgan is lost in a dying world, desperate to find a reason to live. She finds that reason in a filthy bathroom stall, with the rush of Nirvana in her veins and the whisper of God in her ear. A calling she cannot shake.

She’s got Pestilence in her basement. He’s bound, gagged. His blood slick on her hands. His touch warm on her body. And he’s calling the others...the three riders she’s hunting. War is coming, and she’s not ready. She doesn’t think she’ll ever be ready. But she’s been given a mission: a calling to her tainted soul. Lamb, Pestilence calls her. But she’s no lamb. She’s a lion. Her name is Harlow Morgan, and she's the last hope a dying world has left.

Four riders are hunting a fallen woman.... One that will seal this world's fate. And they'll leave behind utter devastation in their wake. ....Pestilence, war, famine, death.

The blinding light of heaven is no salvation. Its white walls, my prison...its gate, the entrance to my cell. But I don’t belong here. I never have. Four archangels took me from my bed at the Convent of Heavenly Christos. They chained my hands and feet and carried me on broad backs, with mammoth wings beating the air into submission. They brought me here, because of a secret I cannot remember. A secret so powerful it’ll start a war between heaven and hell.

How do you fight for a mortal's damned soul? With teeth and claws. With wings and hate. With brass knuckles coated with demon blood. And that's exactly what my archangel intends to do. I never wanted this bloodline...never wanted to belong to both the darkness and the light. I’ll renounce Lucifer’s hold over me, and I’ll fight.

I'm not like you. Not good. Not human. They call me Oleander. Toxic and deadly. I killed my first human when I was nine years old...and I'll kill many more. Because, humans just won't leave me alone. I'm scared. I'm scared of their hate...scared of their ignorance. But most of all, I'm scared when they come with their guns and their armies...and they will come. I never wanted this dark power inside me. Never wanted to be anything more than good.  

In a world filled with terror they needed a hero...so, they became one themselves. They’ll fight for survival - and they’ll fight even harder for love. There’s a place from my nightmares. A place where bad things hide. The memories kept me awake for most of my life. But it’s not what keeps me awake anymore. It’s her. She calls me, desperate and pleading. Like a shining star I can’t quite find. I feel those men from my nightmares coming for her. Only she can’t sense them - she can’t see. 

The first mistake they made was slaughtering her pack. The second was taking her to the compound where she was rescued, along with Joslyn and the dragon, Zadoc. They won’t live long enough to make mistake number three. All the Marine combat techniques in the world never trained Alpha to care for X. He took her in, fed her, clothed her...yearned for her. But the one thing he failed to do was keep her safe. Those who meant X harm were ready and waiting. They won’t need to wait long.

Zadoc's the fourth of 12 Guardians. Dragon-born in the sign of Aries, he carries all the traits of his sign - the good and the bad. He's the protector, the hard-headed stubborn ram. He's brave and noble with a vicious temper, and he has littered his family's mountain with the bodies of those who've harmed the weak. And as the rival Echo pack descends on his home to kill his family, he plans on adding to the count. Until a voice stops him in his tracks...a human woman amongst a sea of wolves.
