How do you go home when home is gone? I’ve paid my dues for protecting someone I love. In return my family, my life, and my freedom - all have been taken from me. When a friend calls in a favor, I go from nothing...to having a job and a place to live. A fresh start brings something more - a woman who brings out my protective instincts. She's been hurt - it's written all over her.

Tampa Bay joins Miami in representing the (alleged) Sunshine State in the Noir Series arena. 

I’ve lived my life on the run. Always looking over my shoulder. Waiting for the day that they would find me. Everyone I have ever loved has been ripped from me until I have nothing left but memories and dreams. His voice haunts me. Stirs me. Makes me yearn for him. My demon prince from my dreams. But will I ever find him? And if I do, will I be able to maintain control over these abilities that are manifesting, or will they control me?

Ever Leath, leader of the deadliest crew within the Magical Enforcement and Containment Agency's ranks, has always known she's a half-breed - until a visit from her estranged mother changes everything. She's determined to marry Ever off for political gain, no matter the consequences - even if it means Ever's life. Searching for the truth leads to disturbing doubts about Ever's heritage, and just as answers appear, so does Dare Fitzpatrick. 

There are many ways to die at the Circus of the Dead. You’re invited to witness them all. Mom sent me all the way across the country to the Louisiana bayou to join the circus and help my uncle for the summer. Except there is something not quite right on this swampy cursed island, and after having my fortune told, I can’t leave. I try to escape, but Benny, an all too charming ghost gangster tries to kill me by feeding me to a tiger. Thankfully I’m rescued by Samuel, the incredibly hot ringmaster who can’t be a day over 20.

We pulled the trigger and braced ourselves for the fallout. We were ready for anything. Or so we thought. War revealed our greatest weaknesses, the ones inside of us that we kept hidden. It forced us to face our vulnerabilities, to overcome the battles within that threatened to hold us prisoner. Enemies came in all forms, but so did strength. As a united front, we were unstoppable. Our power came from each other, and our greatest weapon was about to be unleashed. 

Being dead definitely has its disadvantages. Number one being that I have to wait until the full moon to kick Benny’s ass. What right did he have to kill me? None. Not only that, I was his thirteenth kill, so he’s alive instead. Not for long, if I have my way. With Lorena gone, the island has taken on a life of its own and it’s up to me to destroy it. But doing so will require massive sacrifices. Sacrifices I’m not sure I’m willing to give. But the fate of everyone on the island rests in my hands. Who will live and who will be gone forever?

One touch, one spark, two lives forever changed. Pine and Azure. The war between the two kingdoms lasted far too long. Peace was finally established, but the survivors would never forget who fought on the front lines. Oliver Sage had a reputation for being a ruthless knight. He’d seen enough death to last a lifetime and worked on putting the past behind him, although not all would let him forget. Addison was the only daughter of King and Queen Azure. With three brothers, she knew she’d always be protected, but she also wanted to learn how to take care of herself.

I wanted to be left alone to build my art until she entered my world with a bubble gum scent and heartbreak. Now, I don't know what I'll do once she leaves me...as they all have. As a recovering alcoholic and a rude bastard, Seth Carmen knows he's better off alone. He's made a success of himself by focusing on the one thing he's good at: turning garbage into something stunning. But when feisty blogger, PJ Hensley, enters his world with her fairy-like quality, he suddenly can't imagine a life without her in it. 

Ember Brighton knows exactly what she wants in life, and how to get there, until she finds out her life is intricately woven and laid out...and not in any of the ways she planned. Unbeknownst to Ember, her family has a secret, unique ability to travel through time, and Ember’s about to become part of the mission to stop the evil that threatens them all. 

Eva and Rafe's story continues in this emotional, angsty, rockstar romance from the best-selling author of The Rixon Raiders series. Eighteen-year-old Eva Walker knew going on tour with Black Hearts Still Beat would be complicated. She didn’t expect to find herself torn between two brothers. One wants her but he walked away before. The other needs her but she doesn’t understand why. It’s only time before the truth comes out, and when it does, nothing will be the same for Country’s newest sweetheart and the black-hearted boys of Rock.

Hazel Ross had no idea what she’d stepped into that night at my 18th birthday party. I’d waited years for the right moment, and there she was, forcing me to show my cards before it was time. Now she wasn’t only a pawn for our enemies, she had a target on her back. I don’t regret it, even though I should. I could never regret making Hazel mine again. She gave me something real to fight for. It was too late for her to back out now. She was one of us again. And she was about to find out what that meant.

All I wanted was a little trouble. Okay, so, maybe, choosing Cruz Donovan’s 18th birthday party wasn’t the way to go about it. Three years ago, I fell for him. I thought he fell for me, too. But when he broke it off, he took my heart, and as if that wasn’t enough, he took my best friends, too. They aren’t the same boys I knew before high school started.

Alpha lion who is all growl and bite? Defiant human with a broken heart? An enemy out to break them both? Running from a devastating betrayal, Hailey's wound is salted when car trouble strands her in the path of a snarly lion shifter with a chip on his shoulder the size of Pride Rock. She can't decide what's worse - his snarky, human hating attitude, or the fact that her judgement sucks and she is falling in love with the devil in sexy blue jeans. But refusing to trust will cost her more than her future happiness...it could cost her life.

I’ve finally succeeded in doing away with Samuel, but I’m not really in charge of the island at all. In fact, the treachery runs deeper than I ever thought possible, and if I’m not careful, every soul on the island - both living and dead - will want to kill me for what I’ve done unless I discover who is really in charge.

I was so close to going home and then he ruined it all. Now, I have to focus on how to survive because I don’t think I can go home. And to be honest, after a few more nights with Benny, I’m not sure I even want to. Plus, the more I learn about the circus, the more intrigued I become. I discover that I have abilities I couldn’t have even dreamed of, if I’d stayed in California. But, if I’m to survive, I might have to embrace dark magic.

Mom sent me all the way across the country to the Louisiana bayou to join the circus and help my uncle for the summer. Except, there is something not quite right on this swampy cursed island, and after having my fortune told, I can’t leave. I try to escape, but Benny, an all too charming ghost gangster, tries to kill me by feeding me to a tiger. Thankfully, I’m rescued by Samuel, the incredibly hot ringmaster who can’t be a day over 20. Can he? 

Music was his first love. Hers was the lanky boy from summer camp with a beautiful voice and starlit green eyes. Isabelle and Roman thought they’d be together until the end of time. Then fate proved an orphan from the West Coast couldn’t have a future with a wealthy New Yorker hiding the scars of an abusive home. Five years after their hearts are broken, fate strikes again when they’re reunited as a waitress headlining a bar-band, and a successful rockstar kicking off his first tour.

The sweetheart of Country is about to show the bad boys of Rock, it only takes a single beat for everything to change. Evangeline Walker knows how quickly everything can change. But nothing can prepare her for the moment she meets Rafe Hunter. Intense gray eyes. Wicked smile. Tattoos inked on his skin just begging to be touched. Those aren’t the reasons Eva should stay away from him though. The fact he’s the bassist for America’s hottest rock band is the reason she should run and never look back. Everyone knows the greatest love stories all start somewhere.

The Obsidian Order is tough, they have to be if they want to turn prospects into elite agents. I want to be one of those agents, and right now I'm closer than ever to achieving that goal. Hunting Valoel down is my primary goal. The word on the street is he's recruiting mages to fight for his cause. I'm not sure what his cause is, but I know it's not good. Draven would have us just kill him outright and be done with it, but Valoel said he was my brother. Maybe he can tell me about my past? My parents?
