I am the Merfolk Queen. Through blood and sacrifice—and a little blackmail—I earned my title. Fate led me here and I willingly followed the path set before me because I have a secret… I know when the world ends. But more importantly—I know how to stop it. Nine fae are destined to betray us all. They are the key to preventing the end of our realms. This time anyway. Have I mentioned there is more than one apocalypse in the works? No?

I’ve finally found my family. Some blood. Some chosen. They’ve stood by my side through everything, never faltering. But what I’ve feared has finally come to pass—my love for them has made them targets. The vampires have taken Cian, and new powerful threats are rising from their ranks. Making matters worse, Dante’s secret has been revealed. The gods know he is really Hades, and they have seized him to unleash their vengeance.

The killings that once plagued New Orleans are cropping up again in Seattle. The local office is stumped. I'm called out to lend a fresh set of eyes and my unique magical touch.

I was a fool in love once—until I learned he only wanted me for my power. I left him and found love with someone else. He retaliated by ripping out her heart. Every year my warlock ex-lover leaves me a bloody heart as a gift. A taunt and a reminder that I belong to him. But he’s forgotten that I’m the ruthless feline shifter that was hunting down my enemies long before we crossed paths. Sooner or later, it’ll be his heart I’m holding in my hand.

Everyone knows about the devourers. The wicked monsters that threatened to destroy all the realms until the fae and daemons locked them away. Slight problem. I have devourer magic. It’s only a matter of time before the fae or daemons learn about my abilities. Best case, they bind me to them in service. Worst case… a very excruciating death. I’d prefer neither, which means I need to make some powerful alliances fast. Go to the fae realms. Find the mysterious kid who is running around with strange,

Fulfill the blood debt. Rescue the princess. Easy. Slight problem. The princess lives in a realm full of extremely angry dragons. Oh, and the princess… she’s also a dragon. I’ve never been the type to back down from a challenge. Even if there wasn’t a blood debt between us, Eddie’s my friend and he needs my help to rescue his love. I don’t need a better reason than that to go on this insane mission. Plus, fighting a dragon sounds like my kind of fun.

Supernatural Bounty Hunter isn't the sort of thing you see on LinkedIn. But with a rare type of magic like mine, I don't have many options. Dangerous or not, the job is mine. And it was going fine, until an old-as-sin vampire stole my mark, and with it, my pay day. Knowing I'm poor and desperate, he has offered me a job. I'll have to work by his side to help solve a top secret case. Everyone knows not to trust vampires. Especially a hot elder vampire.
