Darken's Rising - Chapter One (Teaser Sample)

For the first eighteen years of her life, Larissa had only three constants in her world, her adopted brother Ryker and her two uncles Brent and Cade. Hidden away from the rest of the world, they taught her how to survive against all odds, because she was prophesised to change the world and free all Supernaturals from a corrupt rule. She just needed another three years to reach the age of ruling majority, that and an army. Which was where the Heirs to the remaining Major Houses came in, five gorgeous, arrogant males at the top of the food chain. Those boys had no idea what was coming their way, but they would soon find out. Larissa 'Lark' Darken was about to rock their worlds forever and possibly her own in the process.
Cruz Montagu was already jaded with life and he hadn't even reached his twentieth birthday. Heir to House Montagu and reviled by his father, he preferred to spend his days with the other four Heirs to the Major Houses, that and indulging his dark carnal pleasures. That was until the night he stepped out of Blackdale Academy and was confronted by a stunning redhead whose sultry laughter set his blood alight even as her sassy mouth made him want to throttle her. Lark was a nobody from a nothing House and while her complete disregard of House hierarchy irritated him no end, he found himself irresistibly drawn to her, as did his friends. Was she as harmless as she seemed or was she an Elder Council spy. He would make it his mission to find out, and Heaven help her if she turned out to be the latter.

Please note this is the first chapter teaser only of my new House Darken series which is available to purchase on the major retail sites. This is also a reverse harem tale with a sassy, powerful, kickass heroine with five fated soulmates and contains matures themes of sex, very strong language and violence, as well as dustings of humour.
