SERIES SPOTLIGHT: DARK
PROTECTORS
The Kayrs family
leads not only the vampire nation, but also the Realm, which is a coalition of
vampires, shifters, and witches. Years ago, an evil vampire race
called the Kurjans declared war on the Realm by creating a deadly virus that
infects vampire mates. The virus attacks chromosomal pairs and takes
mates from immortal to human, and maybe down to death. No cure for the
virus has been found for mates, and the vampires, who are male only, know that
time is running short.
In addition,
the demons declared war on the Realm, going so far as to kidnap the youngest
Kayrs brother and torture him for five years. He has been rescued,
damaged but still alive. The eldest Kayrs, the king, is out for revenge,
no matter the cost.
The prophets
of all the races predicted the coming of a young psychic named Janie who is
destined to change the world. How, nobody knows. The vampires found
her as a young girl, and one of their leaders adopted her and raised her with
love and determination. In the final four stories of this series arc,
Janie is an adult, and it’s time for that change—if she lives long enough.

Marry Me
Cara Paulson
does not give up easily. A scientist and a single mother, she’s used to
fighting for whatever she wants, keeping a cool head, and doing whatever it
takes to protect her daughter Janie. But “whatever it takes” has never
before included a shotgun wedding to a dangerous looking stranger with an
attitude problem…
Or Else
Sure, the
mysterious Talen says he’s there to protect Cara and Janie. He also says
that he’s a three-hundred-year-old vampire. Of course, the way he touches
her, Cara might actually believe he’s had that long to practice…

A Daring
Rescue
Emma Paulsen
is a geneticist driven by science. But she's also a psychic, so when a dark,
good-hearted vampire frees her from the clutches of the evil Kurjans, she
realizes he must be the man who's been haunting her dreams. But with a virus
threatening vampires' mates, Emma may discover a whole new meaning of
"lovesick".
A Deadly Decision
A Deadly Decision
As King of
the Realm, Dage Kayrs has learned to practice diplomacy. Still, it's taken
three hundred years to find his mate, so he'll stop at nothing to protect
her—even if it means turning his back on his own kind...
TEMPTED
Dark Protectors, Book 2.5
CONSTANT
DANGEROn the run from a mental institution and her vindictive half-brother, it’s safe to say that Sarah Pringle’s happy life as a schoolteacher is on hold. Too bad that as far as self-defense goes, “run and hide” is the best she’s got. And with the monsters that started her escape hot on her heels, that’s not going to cut it for long…
INSTANT LUST
That is, unless Sarah has a bigger, badder, hotter monster on her side. Max Petrovsky is right at the top of the list of alpha male ass-kickers. And he knows exactly what Sarah’s up against. Good thing, because the minute he sees her something primal kicks in, turning everyday attraction into red-hot desire. As long as they’re cooperating, why not mix some pleasure with business? Of course, Max should probably tell Sarah he’s a vampire himself…

Dark Protectors, Book 3
Ready Or
Not Moira Dunne is a witch--the quantum physics kind. Time and space
are her playthings. Which might explain why her one-night stand from a hundred
years ago has turned up to "claim" her--and request her family's
assistance with the war he's brewing. But the more she learns about Connlan
Kayrs, the more she comes to think this is normal behavior for him. . .
There's Nowhere To Hide
When Conn and Moira tumbled on the moonlit grass, Conn hadn't meant to mark her as his mate for all time. She was only twenty! But it wasn't easy to wait for her. It was even harder to forget her. So when he finally returns for his wicked-hot witch, he's ready to let the sparks flying. Even if he burns up in flames. . .

She's good at it because she has the kind of focus and drive that won't back down no matter how steep the odds. Call it southern sass. Whatever it is, there's no denying her willingness to risk everything for the only man she's ever cared about--a man on the verge of losing his very humanity. . .
Sometimes You Mate To Stay Alive
For the past ten years Jordan Pride has dedicated his life to protecting his people from a deadly shifter virus. But in a rare moment of distraction, Jordan's guard drops just long enough for his fate to take an irreversible twist.

TWISTED
Dark Protectors, Book 5.5
Maggie is a
wolf shifter who was captured and experimented on by the Kurjans. Now that a
cure has finally been found for shifters (although not for vampire mates or
witches), she can concentrate on creating a new life for herself and finally
accepting that her memories are gone forever. Most memories, that is. Sometimes
in the hazy world between dreams and dawn, she hears a Scottish voice, dark and
deep, that sounds suspiciously like wolf-shifter Terrent Vilks. A man she
happened to anger by kidnapping a few years back. Hey, it was for a good cause.
Terrent Vilks knows more than he’s let on for the past several years. After digging for answers, he knows exactly why the demons want Maggie dead. And he remembers his past with Maggie…very well. She is finally where he wants her. Now all he has to do is discover what exactly the Kurjans did to her, beat the demons into so much submission they leave her alone, and get her to fall in love with him. Again. Good thing he’s used to wrangling monsters.

Dark Protectors, Book 6
Jase Kayrs
was the fun brother. The warm, charming, easy-going brother of the vampire
leaders. Until he was taken and tortured by demons with their evil mind tricks
for nearly five years. Upon his return, he’s dark, violent, and not the man
they all thought they knew. Not the man he once was. He’s haunted that the only
reason the demons would have let him live was to use him as a weapon against
his family—but he can’t figure out when or how he’ll explode. Plus, once again
the demons are after Jase with a vengeance…or rather, a female demon he
rejected is out to destroy him.
Then the king asks Jase for a favor…a big one. To mate with one of their allies in order to save her. She’s everything that’s good and light in the world…while he’s at home with darkness. Yet he agrees…knowing mating may be the only chance to save them both.
