Can a natural killer learn to be human again? Regan's unique talent for murder makes her a perfect assassin. After a lethal encounter leaves her broken body washed up on a beach, she finds herself adopted by a group of teenage bodyguards. She doesn't intend to stay for long, but soon Regan finds herself faced with a choice: become a hero or stay a villain? *** The boy played with the flat brim of the cap in his hands and looked around the room. He sat back in his chair, trying to look casual, but the heel of his hi-top sneaker drummed rapidly on the concrete floor. Regan sat opposite him with her legs crossed and her hands folded on her tartan skirt. She watched him without a word and brushed a strand of blue-dyed hair behind her ear. Somehow this seemed to unsettle him more. 'Calm down,' she said. 'It's just murder.' *** Author's Note: Darkness Girl: Trickster God is represented by Louise Fury from The Bent Agency. P.S. The epic cover was made by Paul Kopetko (you can stalk him at paulkopetko.com). Enjoy!

TAINTED By [Sa'Bree Jasper] A royal baby, born under suspicion and shame, was sentenced to death by the King himself. His crime? Being the child of a Queen accused of betrayal. But the blade never fell. Instead, a loyal guard defied his oath and smuggled the infant into the human world, hiding him beyond the reach of magic and memory. Nineteen years passed. The boy-Alexander-grew up unaware of who he truly was, or what fate had once been written for him in blood. The guard never returned. But someone else did. A girl cloaked in secrets and duty has come to lead Alexander back-not just to his forgotten kingdom, but into a legacy he never asked for and a war he never saw coming. He was meant to die. Instead... he's the key to everything. UPDATED 2025
