Damaris Drakkis has lived her whole public life at her father's greedy bidding. Poise, elegance, grace, and wit to make anyone understand you're not to be trifled with. But although her twin brother Damian is the one being groomed to take over the bloody throne, it's Damaris who is adept at the art of war and combat. When her father brings up her wedding as punishment, she does what any young lady would do: runaway and become a highway bandit.
Eric Löwenkind is the second prince of seven in his country, but someone is trying to kill him. In an effort to keep his freedom and his head, he takes his best friend and guard with him to find someone who can help. But the slight and hooded figure who robs him on the road is not who his friend wants him to pursue. When they meet again at a festival, Eric has to see for himself how good this secret blade master, Merit, truly is. He knows a hidden treasure when he finds one.
When kingdoms are at odds and war is brewing, the secrets she keeps could be her undoing. A fiance on the hunt for her, a bounty on the head of the bandit Merit, and assassins around every corner... And how is Eric supposed to ask Damaris to the ball?

Years later, her latest mission drags her back to the town she swore she'd never see again-and right into the orbit of the people who ruined her. Including Damien. But the Raven they knew is gone.

The Lycan's Flame
Her love is a weapon. It's killed before. And this time, she's sworn it won't happen again. Everyone at Blackthorn University thinks Kara is just another human girl juggling midterms, frat parties, and overpriced lattes. No one suspects the truth: that she's a Phoenix shifter, hiding in plain sight in a world ruled by werewolves and lycans. Even her closest friends don't know the fire simmering beneath her skin. But Kara isn't just hiding from them, she's hiding from fate. From the one thing she dreads more than anything else: her mate. She's done letting her love be a death sentence. She won't survive another loss. The scars she bears run deeper than flesh. So when Ryker, the dangerously magnetic lycan General, realizes Kara is his fated mate, she does exactly what she swore she would. She pushes him away. Again. And again. And again. But lycans don't walk away from their mates. And Ryker? He's dominant, possessive, and utterly relentless. He's a storm she can't outrun, a flame that won't go out. And every heated glance, every stolen moment, threatens to shatter the walls she's spent years building. As secrets ignite and her past begins to unravel, Kara must face the truth: Can she let herself love again, knowing it could destroy them both? Or will her lies-and the deadly curse entwined with her love-be the very thing that dooms them forever?Complete

But surviving that truth is something else entirely. The Lords have spoken. To preserve the bloodline and unlock the full power of the threshold, Georgia must enter a ritual bond with Sebastian-the only other living tie to her lineage. It's not about love.
