This is book 3 in the Elder series. COMPLETE "What's your name?" He murmured against my lips, his hand slowly ascending up between my thighs. "Tess," I answered, sliding my hands around to his back. "What's yours?" "Kane," he answered, his fingers sliding up barely brushing against my underwear but not touching me. I couldn't take it, I wanted him to touch me. I wrapped my hand around his wrist and guided his hand up until he was touching me. He groaned, leaning his head down into my neck, placing a hot kiss against my skin that sent electricity through my body. "Kane," I breathed as he rubbed me through my underwear. "Tess," he whispered, his teeth grazing across my skin. "You're so wet for me, baby," he growled, moving the underwear aside and sliding his finger into me. He added a second finger, plunging them into me roughly. "Mine," he growled, sinking his fingers in deep. *** Tess is the Gamma of Blackstone pack, the strongest pack in the Northwest. Or, used to be strongest. Since Tess's Luna became pregnant, the pack's strength has faltered. Luna Addie's pregnancy doesn't go as planned and excited for the new life quickly fades to concern as Addie becomes increasingly ill and barely able to leave bed. Blackstone pack and their allies have done everything in their power to try to help Addie but nothing has helped and so Tess volunteers to look for someone at the national meeting of supernatural down in Atlanta, Georgia, in the hopes that she can find a healer that might be able to help her Luna. It's at this great gathering of supernaturals that Tess meets her mate, Kane. As she learns about him she discovers some unexpected news about the mate she's been waiting so long to be with. Torn between love and duty, Tess has to find a way to prioritize these complications before it's too late. Love and duty is a delicate balancing act that if tipped too far in one direction, could send both toppling.

Sam is the most promising swordsman among this year’s crop of Paladin trainees...and knows it. Brash, cocky, and unbeatable with a sword (well, almost), Sam is the kingdom of Thule’s best hope against the violence wrought by demons. The only problem is that Sam is really Lady Samantha, daughter of the seventeenth Duke of Haywood, and if her father has his way, she’ll be marrying a Paladin, not becoming one. But Sam has never held much interest in playing damsel-in-distress, and so she rescues herself from a lifetime of boredom and matrimonial drudgery. Pity that Tristan Lyons, the Paladin assigned to train her, is none other than the hero of her childhood. He hasn’t recognized her as Lady Samantha--yet-- but if he does, he’ll take away her sword and send her packing. Sam is not the only trainee hiding secrets: Braeden is a half-demon with a dark past that might be unforgivable. Sam, Braeden and Tristan set out for the western coast, charged with rooting out an infestation of demons that has made the West unlivable. As they travel, they uncover a deep-seated corruption of power that threatens to derail everything they stand for. Rebellion stirs, led by a rival faction of warriors who tempt Sam to join them with an irresistible offer. A war between men is coming, and Sam must pick a side. Will saving the kingdom cost her life -- or just her heart? Reminiscent of Mulan, but with a medieval fantasy twist, Paladin is a tale of adventure, action, and romance.

***COMPLETE*** Series coming down Nov 1st He asked me to tell him why I loved the cello and I told him but I wasn't expecting his response. "The way you describe it is so beautiful. Reminds me of what it feels like when you're really making love to someone." "Uh no. It's nothing like that," I said. "Oh I think it is. Perhaps you've never really had someone make love to you. It's euphoria and relaxation all at once if it's being done right. All those touches," he brushed his fingers against my neck and I shivered. "All the arousal," he stepped closer and dropped his head next to mine, his hot breath hitting my skin. "All the kisses in all the right places," he murmured, his lips brushing against my ear. "You can't tell me the feeling of someone filling you up and caressing your body slowly, over all the curves, all the peaks, into all the crevices while they move in and out of you, with you, making your own music with all the moans and whimpers."

**COMPLETED*** This is book 2 and can be read as a standalone but I recommend you read "Fated" first. Something caught my eye and when I looked up in the mirror I saw Rykan stepping inside, shutting the door and sliding the lock in place. My heart hammered in my chest as he approached me. He came right up behind me, setting his hands on my hips, never breaking our gaze through the mirror. "Kora," he murmured, stepping closer until my back brushed against his chest. His hand slid down to the end of my skirt and he flattened his palm against my bare leg, sliding his hand up my skirt. "I'm married," I blurted, swallowing hard and trying to ignore how much I liked the way it felt having his hands on me. "Hm," he grunted, narrowing his eyes as he continued his ascension up my outer thigh. His touch sent tingles all over my body, sending heat right between my legs. He gripped my leg and suddenly turned me, his hand now palming my ass as he pulled me against him, his teeth scraping against my neck as his other hand up to my neck. "Didn't seem to bother you when you had me down your throat last night," he said, wrapping his hand around my throat and lifting his head to give me one of those heart-stopping stares. "In fact, I believe you started that, angel." Koralie always felt that there was a part of herself missing. A part she hadn't yet discovered. Stuck in a toxic marriage, she's navigating her way out of it when she meets Rykan, a mysterious stranger she feels an undeniable draw towards although she isn't sure why.
