Whitt hat kein Bock zu sterben. Vor allem nicht mehrmals. Doch genau das erwartet ihn beim "Immortal Contest": dort soll er sich an seinem unsterblichen Tag live umbringen lassen. Auch wenn er am Tag der Show über Superkräfte verfügt - sein Leben würde er trotzdem nicht aufs Spiel setzen. Aber Whitt hat keine Wahl: Dem Sieger des Immortal Contests winken eine Million Dollar Preisgeld, weshalb sein Bruder ihn an die Show verkauft hat - und es ist nicht so einfach, sich gegen eine Entführung zu wehren, wenn man im Rollstuhl sitzt.

When I ran from home, I did it to protect my family from myself. I am not to be trusted. There's a creature living inside me that I cannot control.

But when my father shows up at my door and asks me to find my missing sister, I'm unable to say no because it's my sister, and my wolf's interested. And my wolf always gets her way. Except, when she's interested, people end up dead, too.

Lady Katarina Ashowan has never quite fit the mold of a noblewoman—and it's not only because she's a mutated fire witch. Though she's the closest friend and confidant of Alina, the soon-to-be-coronated queen of Troivack, Kat would much rather play cards with questionable characters or steal out at night to go riding than bandy niceties with suitors and deal with affairs of state. So as soon as Alina is officially crowned, the young witch plans to put away her dresses and get into some real adventure, training with a master swordsman.

Daughter of two ruthless high-gradient telepaths, Auden Scott is not the child her Psy parents wanted or expected, even before her brain injury.

It was an ordinary job. Another night, another asshole collector of the supernatural. I free some poor little beasties from their cages, pocket a few trinkets to pay my bills, and burn the place down on my way out. Just call me the Robin Hood of monster emancipation. I didn’t count on three manly monsters following me home like lost puppies. Stunningly hot lost puppies, but still. Now I’ve got a seductively cheeky incubus, a sweetly enthusiastic demon, and a grimly stoic angel camped out in my kitchen.
