  "What killed him?" asked Reynard. 
  "We don't know it seems like it may have been a dark enchantment," said Death. 
  "Oh?" said Reynard, "Yes what sort of enchantment?" 
  "We are reading up on it in our library of enchantments," said Death. 
  A grim reaper walked out of a dark portal between the dimensions of the living and the dead. 
  "Dante, hi," said Death to the reaper who was his assistant. 
  "Hi, Blake," said Dante the reaper. 
  "Anything new?" asked Death. 
  "Yes we found the spell," said Dante. 
  "What was it?" asked Death. 
  "It came from the Book of Death," Dante said. 
  "You have a book?" said Reynard. 
  "No, its not my book! It's the Egyptian Book of the Dead," said Death. 
  "It's real?" asked Reynard. 
  "Yes," said Dante. 
  "Is it a rogue reaper killing people?" asked Reynard. 
  "No it could be anyone it was lost ages ago?" said Death. 
  "Where?" asked Reynard. 
  "We don't know?" said Death. 
  "How could you lose a cursed book?" asked Reynard shocked. 
  "We don't know it was lost," said Death. 
  Reynard understood, but felt no comfort that a killer had it now.

  A witch with no power captured by four vicious, possessive, sinfully hot gargoyles… 
  Not exactly the makings of a happy ending. 
  Yet here in the arms of New York’s most brutal monsters, I’ve never felt so safe. So cherished.  
  As we work to obliterate our enemies and solve the mysteries of my past—a past that very well holds the key to unlocking my lost magic and breaking their curse—my gargoyles and I have grown impossibly close. 
  But with every enemy destroyed and clue uncovered, through every searing kiss and filthy, forbidden touch, something dark is awakening inside me.  
  Something... hungry. 
  The gargoyles told me that committing violence takes something from you—and they would know. 
  But for me? I’m pretty sure it’s giving something back. Something I’ve been missing for far too long. 
  And now that I’ve gotten a taste, I’m afraid my nights of blood and vengeance are just beginning… 
  Wicked Awakening is the second book in the Claimed by Gargoyles series, a scorching hot reverse harem paranormal mafia romance featuring a feisty witch coming into her power and four fiercely possessive gargoyle gangsters with horns, tails, oh-so-sensitive wings, and special “equipment” guaranteed to leave their woman—and their readers—begging for more.

  Exploring the bottom of the ocean is scary. It's worse when something down there is stalking you. 
  Off the coast of New Zealand, there's an underwater mining facility 8,000 feet under the ocean. The crew stationed there knows that drowning is the least of their worries at such depths. That's why they panic when a maintenance member goes missing while out on a repair mission. He had only eight hours of oxygen, and almost a day has gone by since they lost contact, so the crew can only hope to retrieve his body. 
  Then they receive a distress call from him - at a depth of 11,000 feet. 
  A small rescue team suits up and dives to find their missing crewmate. But descending into the unforgiving depths of the ocean is much easier than going back up, and the team learns that too late. Now, stranded at the bottom of the trench without the ability to call for help, they realize that coming down here was a terrible mistake. 
  There's something far worse down there than the crushing pressure, the ticking timers on their oxygen tanks, and the everlasting darkness that inhabits such depths. And it's hunting them one by one.
