Then again, fate is always deliciously cruel and serves irony. Freya is tired of being weak and pathetic. The people are her are dying, and she's determined to get strong so she can protect them. But when it's implied she could be responsible for their deaths through the use of a dark magic she can't control, she realizes the only danger to others could be herself. And when Kent is made her Protector, she isn't sure she'll be able to control her mouth, let alone her magic, because of how much he infuriates her. Adrya has always known Matthyw has a reputation. However, the last thing she expects us for her father to condemn her to a public bedding ceremony to ensure the legitimacy of their forced marriage.

After the full moon ceremony, Embyrlyn is ready to start the mission…until the mark Kazu left on her neck during their one night of passion starts affecting her. The last thing she expects is to be told she belongs to him. How will she accomplish the mission of seducing a Light Bringer if she’s bound to a possessive wolf who still hates her despite everything that happened between them? And does she even want to? Fans of sensual slow burns, unapologetically savage alpha male shifters who will set the world on fire for irresistibly fierce and stubborn heroines, and forbidden age gap romance with forced proximity and arranged marriages will devour this new dark paranormal fantasy romance long into the night by a debut author.

Blood Betrayal by Tessa Dawn Pdf

Saxson Olaru is one of the select, the few, the elite... As a ruthless sentinel sworn to protect the ancient Vampyr king and the house of Jadon, he has “HOJ” literally inscribed on his heart: a heart that was tragically broken centuries earlier, when human hunters slayed his mother and Dark Ones murdered his father. Having survived the unthinkable, he never dreamed he would come this close to another human predator, let alone a female pretending to be his destiny. Kiera and Kyla Sparrow are twin sisters: humans, living very different lives. While Kiera is selfless, clever, and talented, Kyla is dark, duplicitous, and damaged—she belongs to a secret society of vampire-hunters, and she has sworn to destroy as many as she can. When Saxson’s Blood Moon appears in a February sky, and the matching constellation, Cetus the Sea Monster, appears on Kiera’s wrist, Kyla knows exactly what it means: The celestial gods have chosen her beautiful sister to be the eternal mate of an immortal vampire—she just doesn’t know which one. And it really doesn’t matter. If Kyla can recreate the sacred emblem on her own inner wrist, she can take Kiera’s place and commit the ultimate Blood Betrayal. When duty, obedience, and honor clash with a deep, gnawing intuition, an honor-bound warrior will be forced to choose between allegiance to the house he loves and the quiet voice within, whispering: “Warning!” One wrong move. One wrong choice. And all will be lost forever.

Blood Betrayal by Ausma Zehanat Khan Pdf

A complex and timely mystery, Blood Betrayal proves once again that Ausma Zehanat Khan is a writer at the peak of her powers. “Inaya is a fabulous character."—New York Times Book Review, "Editor's Choice" on Blackwater Falls In Blackwater Falls, Colorado, veteran police officer Harry Cooper is hot on the heels of some local vandals when the situation turns deadly: believing one of them has a gun, Harry opens fire and Duante Reed, a young Black man, is killed. The "gun" in his hands was a bottle of spray paint. Meanwhile, in nearby Denver, a drug raid goes south and a Latino teen, Mateo Ruiz, is also killed. Detective Inaya Rahman is all too familiar with the name of the young cop who has seemingly killed Mateo: Kelly Broda. Kelly is the son of the police officer John Broda, who led a violent attack on her when they were both in Denver. No one is more surprised than Inaya when John turns up on her doorstep, pleading for her help in proving the innocence of his son. With the Denver Police force spread thin between the two cases, protests on both sides of the cases begin. Inaya and her boss Lieutenant Waqas Seif have their work cut out for them to consider the guilt of the perpetrators and their victims. Harry was by all accounts an officer dedicated to the communities he served: was this shooting truly a terrible mistake? Duante was, to some, a street artist with no prior record, but to others, he was a vandal. Mateo was either in the wrong place at the wrong time, or a dangerous drug dealer. In either case, was lethal force truly necessary? Forced to reckon with her own prejudices and work through those of her colleagues around her, Inaya must discover the truth of what really happened on one fateful night in Blackwater Falls.

The Blood Betrayal by Don Donaldson Pdf

Their bloodline is a dangerous mystery. Their secret is a shocking truth. There's something strange about the small, mountain town of Artisan, Arkansas. When hematologist Dr. Carl Martin is called into a Little Rock emergency room, not even his expertise can save Benjamin Rasco from bleeding to death. But why did the man die? His condition shouldn't have been fatal. And no one should have such bizarre red blood cells. Hoping to uncover a reason for the medical mystery, Carl travels to Rasco's hometown, an isolated, religious community nestled deep in the Arkansas Mountains. Instead of answers, however, Carl's faced with more questions--and a mysterious woman who stows away in his car. Sheltered Beth Corbin only wants to see the world for a few days before returning to Artisan, where the town leaders discourage mixing with the outside world. But after talking with Carl, Beth becomes increasingly distrustful of those leaders, and the suspicions she's been harboring about the town become too intense to ignore. Together, Carl and Beth uncover an astounding medical conspiracy that not only affects all the residents of Artisan, but shatters every belief Carl ever held about himself.
