HAPPY LABOUR DAY WEEKEND

TUESDAY TEASER--SAMAEL

Here's a teaser from SAMAEL, the first book in the Blackwell Brothers' Redmption series.

TEASER:

She cranked the radio up to drown out her thoughts. “Paint it Black” by the Rolling Stones poured out of the speakers as she rolled around a curve. A tall, dark-haired man stood off to the side of the road with a leather jacket slung over one broad shoulder. An icy chill raced down her spine. Goose bumps rose on her bare arms.

Samael

Blackwell Brothers’ Redemption, Book 1

 

Love her. Protect her. Reap her soul.

Samael Blackwell is the son of Death—and he’s officially out of chances. After centuries of reaping souls with zero regard for the rules, his father sends him to the dead-end town of Redemption. With only a few hundred bucks and the clothes on his back, Sam has one last shot to prove he can do the job right: reap with compassion, or lose everything.

It should’ve been easy. Find the soul. Finish the job. Walk away.

Then he meets Adrianne Sharp.

She’s strong, guarded, and hiding from a past that refuses to stay buried. The connection between them is instant—and impossible. Because Adrianne isn’t just anyone. She’s his assignment.

And her soul’s on the clock.

To win back his old life, all Sam has to do is watch her die. But what if the cost of redemption…is her?

He was sent to end her story. But she just might rewrite his.

THROWBACK THURSDAY---HUNTER AVENGED

 The throwback book this week is HUNTER AVENGED, the final book in the Forgotten Brotherhood series.

Hunter Avenged

Forgotten Brotherhood Book 6

 

It’s taken Viking hunter Sven Knutson six frustrating months to find her. To track down the angel responsible for compromising the Forgotten Brotherhood and waking the drakon. She may be clever. Resourceful. But no one ever gets away from Sven. Ever.

All Rivka longed for as an angel was a chance to serve on Earth and help humans. Instead, it all went impossibly, horribly wrong, and she still doesn’t understand how or even why. All she knows is that she’s on the run—not only from Heaven’s dangerous elite guard, but also from the Brotherhood, who want answers.

She might just have to trust the immortal Viking whose icy blue eyes make her feel almost wickedly human. Because someone wants Rivka dead and the Brotherhood eliminated. Someone powerful enough to take on the most dangerous assassins who have ever lived. Someone who could unleash the fury of both Heaven and Hell…and Rivka is the key.

EXCERPT:

She’d made her choice, and a smart man took what gifts came his way and was grateful.

Did she really understand what he’d meant earlier? He wasn’t fully sure himself, only that there was a certainty inside him that if he made love to her, he’d never let her go.

Heaven and the other angels be damned. They didn’t need her, but he did. Among them, she was an outcast. With him, she’d always come first.

Rivka had started out as a mission—track her down and bring her to Maccus. The safety of the Brotherhood was at stake. His honor, indeed his place among them, hung in the balance. Failure wasn’t an option. She’d been a means to an end, nothing more. Somewhere along the way, everything had changed. Her courage, ingenuity, intellect, and determination drew his admiration. Physically, she stoked primal urges he’d never experienced before.

He’d always prided himself on his intellect, as well as his strength. Logically, it was too soon to care this deeply about her. For only the second time in his life, he tossed reason aside and listened to his heart. The only other time he’d done it, he’d ended up in a battle with the gods that had almost ended in disaster.

A chill snaked down his spine.

It had all turned out well in the end and would this time. He didn’t need faith. Not when he had a strong mind and body and enough determination for a dozen immortal warriors.

TEASER TUESDAY--ANCIENT DESIRE

 The teaser this week comes from ANCIENT DESIRE, the fifth book in the Forgotten Brotherhood series.

TEASER:

She’s dangerous. As much as he was drawn to her and as innocent as she seemed, he couldn’t forget she’d done the impossible—awakened him and convinced him to leave the cave. He was a fierce drakon, once feared by the mightiest nations of the world, yet he was unable to walk away. A sliver of concern dimmed some of his arousal. It would be smarter to leave, but there were questions that needed answering. And, like it or not, Raine was at the center of it all.

Ancient Desire

Forgotten Brotherhood Book 5

 

Nothing was supposed to wake half dragon, half human Lucius from his Deep Sleep. Nothing. And yet something, or rather someone has. The unexpectedly attractive human not only touched him. She kissed him. Now Lucius is awake, and more powerful than he has ever been in his 4,000 years of existence. And once he finds out who led her to his cave, he’ll deal with his 300 years of hunger…

 

College professor Raine Carson spent her life obsessed with myths and legends. And now she’s woken one up. Only Lucius is nothing like anything she’s ever seen or read about in her history books. Because this man is part sexy badass and part terrifying…monster. Yet she wants him with a hunger like nothing she’s ever felt before.

 

Lucius used to be part of the Forgotten Brotherhood—a ruthless group of paranormal assassins. Now he’s unsure if his former Brothers are their allies…or enemies. All he knows is that someone is hunting him, and Raine is just as tangled up in this mess as he is. And he’ll protect her—even if it means unleashing his Dragon and all of its power.

THROWBACK THURSDAY---BJORN CURSED

 This Thursday we're throwing back to BJORN CURSED, book four of the Forgotten Brotherhood series.

Bjorn Cursed

Forgotten Brotherhood, Book 4

 

After the slaughter of his wife and family centuries ago, tortured and broken, Bjorn was cursed as the first Norse werewolf. With the help of the Forgotten Brotherhood, Bjorn has finally been able to control the beast within. But Lucifer is still looking to create chaos for Forgotten Brotherhood. Only this time, he’s taken a woman from the Norse afterlife…and placed her right in the path of Bjorn Knutson.

 

Now Odin himself has tasked Bjorn with killing the woman who escaped. Failure is not an option. But when he rescues a human woman in the night, Bjorn is stunned to find himself looking on upon the face of the woman who’s haunted his dreams and nightmares for centuries. His long-dead wife. His love. His Anja. And she is the one pulled from the afterlife—and he’s been sent to kill.

 

Killing her will destroy him. And letting her go will unleash the fury of Odin upon them both…

EXCERPT:

“Bjorn?” Her voice quavered. Her uncertainty was apparent, but likely only to him.

It was more effective than a fist to the jaw to snap him back to reality. He willed his wolf into submission. With his hands on his hips, he sucked air into his lungs, driving back the fury that threatened to erupt.

But seeing blood on her, knowing she’d had to defend herself, had brought out the killer inside.

And now she knew.

He was no longer the man she’d married. He was a monster. One he’d created with his own arrogance. He was no different than the men hunting her. Actually, he was worse because he was the cause of it all.

If he was a better man, he’d leave her with Asher for protection while he figured out a way to deal with the threat facing them. His wolf growled, enraged that he’d even consider such a thing. Both man and beast were in agreement. For better or worse, she belonged with him. No one would do more to keep her safe.

TEASER TUESDAY---BURNING ASH

 This week's teaser if from BURNING ASH, the third book in the Forgotten Brotherhood series.

TEASER:

He sauntered out of the dark and fully into the candlelight. The flames flickered over his face, exposing a strong jaw, straight nose, and high forehead. His blond hair was pulled back in a short tail at his nape. His skin was olive-toned or tanned, hard to say. Piercing brown eyes stared at her.

Good looking was much to tame. Handsome didn’t fit either. There was something dangerous and predatory lurking beneath the surface. Primal. Compelling. Yeah, that was it.

It was time for her to leave.

Burning Ash

Forgotten Brotherhood, Book 3

 

No one is more surprised than Asher, one of the oldest vampires on Earth, that he’s attracted to vamp hunter Jo Radcliffe. She’s smart, a talented slayer, and she’s gorgeous. Something about her pulls at him, like no one ever has before. For a man whose name strikes fear in everyone—this is something new and intriguing. And quite possibly deadly, if she discovers his secret.

Jo has two things in common with the handsome Asher—they are both slayers and someone is messing with them in a very-much-trying-to-kill-them way. She’s not so happy about joining forces with a dude she doesn’t know. But he’s sexy as hell and really good at his job as one of the Forgotten Brotherhood, whose business it is to execute misbehaving paranormals.

She knows she’s bait in a larger plot to harm Asher and the Brotherhood. And there is nothing he won't do, no line he won’t cross, to keep her safe—which may be the weakness that destroys them both.

THROWBACK THURSDAY---ARCTIC BITE

Today's THROWBACK THURSDAY  feature is ACTIC BITE, the second book in the Forgotten Brotherhood series.

I LOVE Alexei so much!

Arctic Bite

Forgotten Brotherhood, Book 2

 

Being immortal doesn’t mean you can’t die. It just means you’re damn hard to kill.

 

When Alexei Medvedev joined the Forgotten Brotherhood—a group of paranormals hired to assassinate other paranormals—he knew it wouldn’t be a cake walk. But his next target is one of Death’s own Reapers gone rogue. For the first time since he started this gig, “damn hard to kill” feels damn near impossible.

 

Everyone in the Brotherhood knows the first rule: don’t fall for your target. But when Alexei tracks Cassie Dobbs to a remote bar in small-town Alaska, he finds the hot-as-hell Reaper casually serving drinks as if she doesn’t have a bounty on her head from Death himself. And now he’s dangerously intrigued. 

 

But Alexei soon has bigger problems to face than an unexpected attraction. They only send assassins after those who deserve to die—or so he’s been told. Now that he’s met Cassie, he’s not so sure.

 

Because what if everything he’s been told is a lie...and the person he’s been sent to kill is the only one who knows the truth?

 

EXCERPT:

 

Just her luck. She finally was attracted to a guy and he was probably here to take her home. Or maybe exterminate her. Did he even know what she was? Or was this nothing more than her overactive imagination? Maybe he was socially awkward. No crime in that.

She swallowed back a scream of frustration. She was making herself crazy with all this speculation.

He remained silent, but he did finally raise his head. There was something in his expression she couldn’t quite distinguish, and it gave her pause. Was it regret? Pity?

Anger bubbled up inside her. Swallowing it back took a real effort, but she managed. With anger would come a burst of energy. That could alert one of her kind to her presence here.

“Just who the hell are you?” she demanded.

He frowned and tilted his head to one side, seeming honestly bewildered by her question. “Alexei Medvedev.”

It was tempting to let it go, but she couldn’t afford to. She leaned closer until their foreheads were almost touching. “Let me rephrase the question. What are you?” If she was wrong about him, he’d be confused by her question. If she could catch him off guard, she might get an honest reaction.

He released a chuff, the sound more animalistic than human.

It all suddenly made sense—his big size, his enormous appetite, his ability to easily handle whiskey like it was water. The dark, musky scent that clung to his skin.

She checked to make sure no one else could hear. For once, the jukebox was quiet and there was only the hum of the television over the bar.

“You’re a shifter of some kind, aren’t you?” She had no idea just what she was dealing with, but having one of his kind show up in Alaska and come to her place of work was no coincidence.

Without waiting for an answer, she demanded, “Why are you here?”

He straightened­­––his great size more intimidating than it had been up until this very moment. Without the haze of sexual attraction blinding her, it was easy to see what was glaringly obvious, to put all the clues together.

Ignorance might be bliss, but it could also be her undoing. Too bad she hadn’t seduced him last night. That ship had sailed. And that saddened her even as dread made her stomach clench.

He stared right at her, his icy-blue eyes filled with determination.

“I’m here for you.”
