Welcome to the Mouth of Hell, where I'm training to defeat my past before it destroys my future. To beat my father and secure my freedom, I'll have to be stronger than I've ever been before. If fighting in the cage leaves me too bruised and exhausted to focus on my crumbling personal life, that's just a bonus. Some truths hurt more than lies. And I'm not the only one aching. Ciprian's a stranger. Alistair's losing it. Luca's walking on eggshells. And my ex is here, watching, judging, and stirring up things better left alone.

Carter. I couldn't remember the last time I'd craved the touch of a living person so badly. This woman was irresistible to me, and yet I couldn't allow myself to have her. Supernaturals like her didn't belong with a thing like me. While I didn't take the souls of the dead to the afterlife or drag the evils of the world into Hell, I did something much worse. For her safety, it was paramount for me to stay away. Then, her father came to me, demanding I bring her home. As a member of the vampire council, telling him to go shove it wasn't an option nor a war I wanted to wage.

Morrigan died as the unwilling sacrifice in a demonic ritual, but the Grim Reaper has another plan for this wayward soul—to make her his new apprentice!

All magic comes with a price tag. It's a lesson witches are taught from a young age, along with the ones about how we'll never survive a vampire turning, how hunters will always seek to eradicate us, and how a devil's bargain can never be broken. But together, my rebels and I have shattered every last rule, ignored every last warning. We've grown stronger because of it, and so far, we've survived everything fate has thrown our way.

Becoming a knockoff Dracula in tight leather pants was never part of Vincent’s plans. Neither was being summoned to another world by a cult of vampire wannabes. But both happened.

The world is filled with nightmares, and the looming threat of losing his soul stands between his goal and his reality, so it’s not like it will be too hard or anything. Hell should tremble. A good man is going to war.

Morrigan tries to make the best of her life as a teenage reaper, but who would have guessed reaping itself wouldn't be the only big thing on her plate. When a long-lost relative comes out of the woodwork, it only complicates things more, but before she packs up and goes, she needs to make sure Pepper will be okay in her absence. Alice, meanwhile, has duties involving another of her friends, and getting on the radar of a cruel goddess might only be the beginning of her problems.

Things have taken a seriously nasty turn. Can someone please let me off this rollercoaster? Everywhere I look, there's drama and danger ready to pounce from the shadows. Nowhere feels safe, and trust seems to be a rare commodity.

My life has really taken a complicated turn here in Oakthorne. I keep hoping some fairy godmother will show up and offer to turn back time for me. Not too much, just enough to ease this pain. Yeah. Right. As much as there's hurt, there's also Death. He is a complication, and a beautiful one I can't resist when I really, really should. He consumes my every waking moment, submerges me in raging desire I never want to break free from.

Lucian will have to get creative, and there will come a point where he will have to get ruthless. The sudden passing of someone close to him leaves Lucian in a tailspin.

I have to believe in hope. I have to believe in my love for Death, for a future beyond this pain and drama. But why does hope feel like such a foolish dream at this point?

Faced with the looming threat of the Russian pack, Silver and Andrew Dare plan to host an envoy at their wedding. The Russian alpha rejects diplomacy, however, and instead sends Mikhail, an elite assassin. Mikhail begins to ritually murder sub-alphas, leaving them to bleed to death from a thousand shallow cuts. The Roanokes’ only leverage is Mikhail’s reverence for the Lady: He thinks She is reborn in Silver. Playing the Lady goes against all of Silver's beliefs, but she yields to Mikhail’s invitation for her to join him in Russia.

Hell hath no fury like a Horseman scorned. They say the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. For Lazarus Kerrigan, that couldn't be further from the truth. He's got no intention of playing nice once he gets there, not with Emma's soul on the line.
