I had just escaped the hell of prison when I met her. It was the night I was protecting other dragon shifters on the streets of New York. I never expected to run into Dana. A gorgeous shifter. She’s pregnant...and she, too, just escaped cruelty. Now, it’s my job to protect her from the dangers that lie ahead. I’ll give her everything she deserves. Except for one thing. Love. I have no place for it in my heart. Can Dana bring out the humanity in me? Or...is being a monster my only destiny?

It’s a new world for me. That gorgeous, strong, yet gentle Mason Tremblay is the best part of it. How do I not fall in love with him? When I saved one of the Tremblay brothers, Mason Tremblay became indebted to me. But he has to find me first and rescue me from my brother's ruthless pack who kidnapped me.

But Mason finding me is only the beginning.

I didn’t do it. I never betrayed my friend. Last year, I was kidnapped along with presidential candidate’s daughter Lindsay Bosworth, forced to help her assailants, my mother implicated in one of the biggest political scandals in American history. I've been cleared of any wrongdoing, but that doesn’t matter. Once you’re tried by the media, you’re guilty as sin. The truth doesn’t get the public’s attention. But shame? Shame sells. And everyone assumes you’re tainted.

I've done my fair share of partying, I'll admit. And yes, I've built up something of a reputation with the ladies when not on the ice. That's on me for being careless with my posts on social. And I do know what's most important in my life. Two things. Hockey...and Pamela Jenson.

Fifty years after the Atlantic slave trade was outlawed, the Clotilda became the last ship in history to bring enslaved Africans to the United States. The ship was scuttled and burned on arrival to hide the wealthy perpetrators to escape prosecution. Despite numerous efforts to find the sunken wreck, Clotilda remained hidden for the next 160 years. But in 2019, journalist Ben Raines made international news when he successfully concluded his obsessive quest through the swamps of Alabama to uncover one of our nation’s most important historical artifacts.

Asher Hansen began tormenting me our freshman year, not long after my father kicked him and his older brother off the compound with nothing but the clothes on their back. They blamed Dad for their mother taking her own life. To be honest, I think I did, too. Maybe that’s why I took it whenever Asher called me Cult Barbie and teased me mercilessly, saying the filthiest, most outrageous things. But that doesn't explain why his words always made me feel...fizzy inside.

For four years, Jackson Hansen has done his best to make my life a living hell. Even when I finally agree that his brother is good for my best friend, Emma, he won’t give me a break.

The Ice Dragon was traded to Las Vegas for one reason and one reason only: to bring the Crush another Cup Championship. But off the ice, there’s something not right with my money. My financial managers in Russia are probably stealing from me. So I really need the expert eye of a pro to investigate what's going on. My money being stolen is problem number one. Having the hots for the genius finance goddess I just hired to help me out of problem number one? That's problem number two.

My reputation as an Enforcer was earned one game at a time. Fighting on the ice for my team is something I take very seriously because I came to the USA to play hockey, not be a celebrity. Unfortunately, this logic has my public image taking a beating—not that I care very much how others think of me. Except for her. Scarlett. I can deal with setting her straight about her ridiculous suspicions, but cracking through that hard shell she has built around her broken heart? This is my real challenge.

I’ve always been a bad boy, but things have never been this bad before. Now I’m running from something terrible, something I didn’t want to do and can never take back. When I arrive in Washington, planning to hide out at the Tremblay estate where I used to visit my cousins, the Tremblay brothers, I pretend everything is fine. Because nobody can know what I did when I can’t even look at myself in the mirror and every time I close my eyes, I taste my best friend’s blood.

Reynas Geheimnisse verblassen im Vergleich zu dem, was Mazrith ihr vorenthalten hat. Und jetzt, da sie weiß, was er ist, hat er nichts mehr zu verlieren. Als das Gleichgewicht der Macht kippt, müssen sowohl Reyna als auch Mazrith eine Entscheidung treffen. Sich gegenseitig zu retten oder die Monster daran zu hindern, Yggdrasil zu beherrschen. Doch die Liebe kann selbst die Vernünftigsten in den Wahnsinn treiben, und wenn sie sich nicht gegenseitig retten können, werden sie vielleicht selbst zu den Monstern und bedrohen ihre Welt.

Der Schattenhof sieht sich mit einer zunehmenden Zahl von Bedrohungen konfrontiert, die nicht nur Reyna, sondern auch ihren Entführer, den mysteriösen Schatten-Fae-Prinzen, unter Druck setzen. Untote Monster, eine wahnsinnige Königin, magische Flüche und uralte Geheimnisse scheinen darum zu wetteifern, ihrem Leben ein Ende zu setzen. Reyna ist gezwungen, mit dem als Monster bekannten Prinzen zusammenzuarbeiten, beginnt jedoch schon bald einzusehen, dass der Fae-Krieger nicht dem Bild entspricht, das die Gerüchte von ihm malen. Er ist gefährlich anders; leidenschaftlich und radikal anders.

Les secrets de Reyna sont bien pâles en comparaison de ce que Mazrith lui a caché. Maintenant qu'elle sait ce qu'il est, il n'a plus rien à perdre. Alors que l'équilibre des forces se modifie, Reyna et Mazrith seront tous deux contraints de faire des choix. Se sauver l'un l'autre ou empêcher les monstres de régner sur Yggdrasil. Mais l'amour peut rendre fou même les personnes les plus saines d'esprit, et s'ils ne parviennent pas à se sauver l'un l'autre, ils pourraient bien devenir les monstres qui menacent leur monde.

Eigentlich hätten Reynas Freunde am Schattenhof in Sicherheit sein sollen, doch ihre Feinde sind überall. Und wenn Mazrith ihr nicht verzeiht, wird auch er bald dazugehören. Obwohl sie sich das Gegenteil wünscht, wächst Reynas Verlangen nach dem Prinzen unaufhaltsam an, bis es genauso stark ist wie ihr Wunsch, die Spiele zu gewinnen und den Stab zu finden, der seinen Fluch brechen kann. Bald wird sie jedoch herausfinden, wer er wirklich ist und was er ihr verheimlicht – und dann wird nichts mehr so sein, wie bisher.

Eine trotzige Menschenfrau. Ein dunkler Fae-Prinz. Zwei Feinde, die an eine Ehe gebunden sind, die ihre Welt zerstören könnte. Reyna wurde als wertvolle Sklavin des Goldhofs geboren, wo sie ihr ganzes Leben lang von sadistischen, machthungrigen Fae in einem glitzernden Palast eingesperrt war. Als der Palast überfallen wird, nutzt sie ihre Gelegenheit und flieht, doch die Plünderer werden von ihrem schlimmsten Albtraum angeführt. Der dunkle Prinz der gefürchtetsten aller Fae, den Herrschern des Schattenhofs, will nur eines: Sie. Die kupferhaarige, menschliche Runenträgerin.

I need to prove Jane is innocent despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Mirrors, smoke, and lies can conjure a truth that isn't real. Money, bribes, and power can twist reality. What we call proof is all an elaborate magic act. So is love. It's all about what you believe. Who you believe. And I believe Jane. I love her. But it might be too late. Or, worse - it might all be an illusion. If proof is just a magician's sleight of hand, then we're caught in a sick trick. A deadly one. One that doesn't end with applause, but with a bang.

When I finally gathered the courage to run from the man who turned my life into a living nightmare, all I wanted was to escape. I never dreamed I would find myself in the arms of not one but two of the hottest men I’ve ever laid eyes on. When I’m their good girl, they spoil me rotten. Even when I’ve been naughty, they make me feel cherished and loved. But my past isn’t so easily left behind. The man I escaped isn’t going to let me go without a fight, and the only thing my new Daddies require to keep me safe is the one thing I can’t give them—my trust.
