Synopsis

Antiques dealer Liam Dumar isn't fond of carrying out his next job for Mina Carpathia Antiques. He squirms at the thought of retrieving a valuable painting from the foreboding Hyde Manor atop Mount Castelul. The manor has quite reputation of cult activity and blood-drinking, and rumor has it bodies are buried beneath its floors.


Liam's trepidations disappear when he meets the sexy caretaker of the manor, Henrich Von Shelly. Following an introduction and short tour of the manor, Liam is taken to a private room where he will spend the night. In the morning he will obtain the famous painting and leave.


During his stay, strange things begin to happen. A horrifying scream awakens him in the middle of night. When he goes in search of the sound, he discovers a secret passageway and bizarre room where Lord Harkford Mason Hyde, owner of the manor, carries out questionable actions with handsome men.


Liam's visit turns shorter than expected. But when he attempts to leave, he's confronted by Lord Hyde. Will Liam live another day to tell his vampire tale of Hyde Manor, or die like the many men before him?

DEA Operative Cameron Andrews can finally use her Master's Degree in International Affairs when she's assigned to help Ambassador John Taylor in Argentina negotiate a trade treaty. But it's a front for her real objective: extricate the ambassador's eighteen-year-old son, Tad, from the trouble he is in with the Salavados Cartel and then work with the Argentine authorities to trap the Cartel in a sting.
Since her boss gave her the authority to use any means at her disposal, Cam falls back into a cover she's used before: the very wealthy and independent Canadian, Laura Stuard. 
By playing the headstrong Laura to the hilt, Cameron is invited to the Salavados compound where they make a business proposal to her: use her SeaFarer Cruise Liners to move the drugs to Canada. 
It is a dangerous and exhausting game Cameron and Tad are playing, because not all the Salavados brothers are convinced by "Laura Stuard." Cameron will have to stretch her considerable skills to not get killed during this scheme.

Vampires Have Lives Too Box Set

Edward Kendrick

Five stories about vampires who, just like their human counterparts, live life to its fullest. They can be happy lives, sad or lonely ones, or ones full of anger. Vampires can have families, and most importantly, they can and do fall in love. Contains the stories:

Lonely Vampire: Vampire Armand knows what it means to be lonely. Then he catches Tino, a new vampire in town, playing Robin Hood and points out that he's not giving to the poor. So the pair band together to create shelters for the homeless. Has Armand finally found the one man who will make his life complete? Or will a rogue vampire who preys on the homeless destroy any hope of happiness for the lonely vampire?

I Hunt by Night: My name is Lucas. I was human, once. Now, I'm a vampire and I detest humans. I will do all I can to eliminate them. I'll be declared rogue if I'm not careful. I thought I was until Axel appeared. He's a vampire, sexy as hell, and he's been watching me. Luckily he detests humans too. The attraction is there, and our shared desire to destroy humans. Can we, without being caught? Only time will tell.

The Family Martell: Vampires Dorian and Cecily adopt three human children, who agree to be turned when they come of age. They join the family business and Griff falls in lust with Nolan, his parents' human partner. Margie, their daughter, loves Wayne, a human doctor. Brad is bi, so when he meets vampire Ewan, and his Sire, Alexia, it causes problems that will take the entire Martell family to solve if they can.

The Midnight Detective: When Wyn's young daughter and her mother, Marianne, disappear, he hires Christoph, a private detective, to find them even though he knows Christoph is a vampire. They are drawn to each other once Christoph leans that Wyn is unrepentantly bi. Can Christoph find Wyn's daughter? And how will the two men handle the fact they've become lovers when one is human and the other definitely is not?

Burke and the Vampire: What would you do if you discovered you could sense vampires? Burke didn't believe they existed until it happened to him. Horrified, he vows to eliminate them. Vampire Reynaud must find the slayer dubbed The Hunter. It turns out to be easier than anticipated when events transpire to reveal it's his new friend, Burke. Can opposites attract, or will their differences destroy the possibility of love?

Kade: Accidentally Bonded - An...

Laura Taylor

Growing up on Rendol 4, Aiden Hill only ever wanted to help better his planet. Now a lieutenant in the Alliance Military, he is doing just that, defending the population from space pirates, slave traders and a rogue species fighting them for colonisation rights of the planet.

But during a mission gone awry, Aiden stumbles upon Kade, a brainwashed slave who immediately imprints on him and declares Aiden to be his master. But slavery in the Alliance is strictly forbidden, leaving Aiden attempting to rehabilitate his unexpected charge, despite Kade’s obvious reluctance to cooperate.

Kade has waited for years to meet his master, the man he can devote himself to for the rest of his life. But when they finally meet, his master seems oddly reluctant to make use of Kade’s many skills – including his skills in the bedroom! Instead of giving him orders, his master insists that Kade should make his own decisions and express opinions that conflict with his master’s desires.

A slave without a master is like a boat without a sail; directionless and destined to be swept up by the storms of life. But for Aiden to treat Kade as the slave he insists he is would be a moral travesty, defying both Alliance law and his own conscience. So how can the two of them ever find a middle ground, when the life Kade so ardently wants is one that Aiden finds so abhorrent?

Warning: Contains frequent military-style violence.

Kade: Accidentally Bonded can be read either as a standalone or as part of the series.

Rogue Bonds:
Book 1 – Kade: Accidentally Bonded
Book 2 – Dax: Gratefully Bonded
Book 3 – Xel: Broken Bond
Book 4 – Jai: Defiantly Bonded
