My Dark Beast

“A beautifully twisted fever dream.” – EVIE MARCEAU, author of White Horse Black Nights

SLEEPING BEAUTY x HADES & PERSEPHONE

Tarian Hadez—thirty-three, real estate mogul, mob lord, most eligible bachelor in New England, god. The god-part is an exaggeration. After all, if true deities existed, then the world would be a magical place, and it’s really not. At least, my world isn’t.

Calanthe Bloom. That’s me. Twenty-four, college graduate drowning in debt, true crime addict, florist by default, single by design. Although not living my best life, I’m enthusiastically pursuing it. Especially, in my dreams, which, since a recent flower-delivery snafu, all feature none other than lethally private Tarian.

Oh, the things he does to me when I sleep.

Wickedly surreal.

Except . . . are they?

Enter a world of gods and monsters where dreams are made of flesh. My Dark Beast is a paranormal romance standalone brimming with spice and intrigue.

Project – 16

Miller is the last Englishman. It’s not a title he enjoys because it means that whenever the looters and the treasure hunters come across the Atlantic to the ruins of his country, it’s his job to hunt them down. That is, if the packs of wild dogs don’t kill them first. Or the collapsing buildings. Or the disease.

Miller soon finds himself helping a former US Ranger, Claudia Riley, hunt for her missing nephew who’s disappeared somewhere in England. The US want him found too – him and his Russian girlfriend who they suspect are planning to stage a terrorist attack from one of the many underground bunkers that now lie empty. All is not what it seems however as they soon find themselves under attack from a US jet that leaves Riley critically injured.

Bringing all his training and survival skills to bear, Miller has to keep the US Ranger alive despite the sudden onset of a harsh winter and the roaming packs of starving dogs. He finds, however, that his love for her might also be the death of him.

Can they hope to complete their mission or will the powers behind the real terror attack get to them first? And can Miller dare to hope that in the overgrown wastelands of England he might find happiness at last?
