Love was supposed to conquer all.
That's what had been said for centuries, but Abigail Bellamy seemed to have glossed over that factor. With a few centuries under her belt she thinks she has a hold on her life. Funny thing fate is when it throws a few strangers her way and off sets the whole balance she created for herself. Though, the same could be said about her counterpart in it all, Dante.
Fate seemed to have a cruel way in telling anyone anything.
______________________________________
Two creatures: two very different paths crossing to form one important destiny.
Abigail Bellamy, the embodiment of a carefree life with no chains binding her to duty. It doesn't matter if it's her four roommates or the humans she associates with, she is on top and they are all below her. That is how it had always been.
For a vampire three centuries old, Abigail has a twisted sense about all things love. And, when a mysterious man enters her life, he challenges her very nature. Why has he come into her life and why won't he leave?
With these questions in mind, Abigail knows one thing: she doesn't need this man...or does she?
Dante thought he'd seen everything until he came across a woman named Abigail. For a vampire that is so feisty, strong willed, he can't help but wonder why she'd be the one they're hunting.
With his people locked in a desperate search for a demon seeking to bring Hell onto Earth, Abigail seems to be too much for him. Against his desire to leave her in the dust, he is tied to her by his loyalty to his brethren-and that fact that she seems to be the key to all things happening.
He must protect her at all costs, keep her safe from whatever threat that tries to consume her. With her wild nature and refusal to let him get close-will he be able to stay sane enough? Or will Abigail turn him against his own ways?
Two people: different in every way, with a single destiny that may change in every way.

Revenge of the Luna Queen
[IMPORTANT SEQUEL ALERT: Book #2 of 'The Lost One' Series] Love. That's what they had. He loved her and she loved him. Kaiden had never been as proud and complete as he did with his mate safe in his arms, his mark on her skin. She was his and he was never going to let her go. Of course, there would be challenges, they were planning to face off - and hopefully take down - some of the most powerful men in their world, but they were gaining followers. They now had other Alphas standing beside them, and a growing pack at their backs, and each and every one was prepared to fight. To fight for her, and for the good of their species. Because she held the answers, for them, and their whole kind. But, the unthinkable happens. Aislinn is gone. Disappearing in the night, she takes his love and their hope with her. Kaiden is determined to get her back, the problem will be if Aislinn wants to be found. Anger. She had tried. Had given into fate, succumbed to the selfish desire to be typical, to be happy, but she wasn't those things. She wasn't unbroken. Or normal. Or whole. She was completely and absolutely, irreparably, shattered. For five years she had planned, had lived only for vengeance, then her mate had come and swept her away. He'd broken through her walls and restarted her heart. She loved him. Even as broken and twisted as she was, she knew she loved him. She was so proud, so happy that she wore his mark, but some things could not be erased. Even by love. Some things could not be forgotten. Could never be forgiven. Fate. The entire werewolf world is on the brink of war. Packs and Alphas are beginning to choose sides, and the stakes will only grow as the whispers of Royal succession and a lost Heir begin to surface. Fate brought Kaiden and Aislinn together, but in the face of their pasts and all that is out to rip them apart, it may not be enough to keep them. ©Revenge of the Luna QueenComplete

Warning: Violence, swearing, abuse, and other sensitive topics - Read at your own discretion --------------- Fate can be cruel. Especially when an age old prophecy by a group of oracles says you are fated to lose everyone you care about. On top of possibly being rejected by your mate, or killed if they find out who you are. On the upside though, that same prophecy claims that you have some amazing powers even though you don't. So that's something, at least. ---------------- Isabell McVeigh is 14 years old when she has to separate from her adoptive parents. She winds up just where she was warned to stay far away from.

Will she be able to survive until her powers fully show themselves and she takes her rightful place or will she be found and extinguished before that can happen?Complete
