Darci Cabot was born into Vampire Royalty. He is the middle son of Vlad's Second Council, and they tell him that he is to join instead of his older brother. He never wanted to be part of the Council, never wanted the pressures thrust upon him, but there is simply nothing he can do. The one thing shaming him, keeping him from the Council... he doesn't have his mate. Other Council members have children itching for their seat, mates at their side or a pull in their instincts... Darci has neither. And so the pressure is even greater. He's given less than a year, but if he doesn't find her... he cannot join the Council for a near century bringing great shame on his family and casting them out of their Royalty. He just wants to be left alone, but that was not his fate in life.
Adira Mikaels lost both her father, younger sister, and best friend in one fatal accident when she was 11 years old. As a rare Elemental she trains so that she may one day kill who was responsible for her loss. She's just a normal girl, living a double life, and trying to keep her mom happy. Her mom is decidedly NOT happy, when the Cabot brothers start hanging around again.
With a war brewing beneath the surface can Darci find his mate, and can Adira keep herself together to avenge her loved ones?

Grim Echoes
Maeve's ability to touch others' souls can be heartbreaking and confusing, but when she connects with two murderers, it turns her world upside down. Are they still killers if they only kill monsters?

Thrusting her into their violent world, Maeve struggles to hold on to her humanity, making choices she never believed she would have to make. Disturbed but drawn to each of them. Will's bestial nature calls to her one moment and rejects her the next. While a powerful attachment to Ander's gentle soul comforts her, but every time they connect, she feels his darkness just below the surface. Will's entire life has been a war against monsters, alongside his best-friend Ander. Honor bound by duty, he is brutal, relentless, and uncompromising in his mission to protect the masses. He didn't understand how much his world would change after saving Maeve, or how she would shatter his convictions. Ander may have magical talents but in his mind, nothing will redeem him from the abomination he is. Bound by more than shed blood, Will, his adopted brother, and only friend. Together they seek and destroy aberrations that poison the world. Until Maeve touched his hand, there was nothing else but the mission. With her, Ander could see a different side of himself, a different life. This is a character driven story written from the 3 main characters POV's.

Power & money aren't the only things that make the world turn & those that wield the greatest power control destiny. If you're looking for heroes, Will & Ander are NOT it. If you're drawn to tortured villainous souls, you'll enjoy their saga.Complete
