Rejected by the Immortal
In the dark streets of the city, immortal vampire kings stalk the shadows. Centuries of power have built their empires, but nothing can slake their thirst for blood—or passion.
In this world vampires are cursed to spend eternity alone and passion is strictly forbidden.
A vampire’s fated mate brings them new powers, but before they revel in their new power they first face even greater weakness, which only a few survive and even less are willing to try.
Rejecting their mates is a matter of business and survival.
For those few mates who are brave enough to give into the dangerous allure of a vampire mate, they will break all laws of society to be with their true loves but most immortal bloodlines are centuries deep. Is their love enough to break the curse? Only time will tell...

The Briarwitch Academy: The Complete Series
Free With Kindle Unlimited
I don’t look for trouble, it finds me: murderous teachers, sexy supernaturals, devious plots.
My name is Dawn Rose. I was at peace living as a food scavenger in my dystopian fringe society, in what used to be LA County, before the Abnorms turned it into a hellscape.
After witnessing a brutal murder-by-magic and making an unexpected discovery, I find myself whisked away to Briarwitch Academy, where magic goes to grow.
A human like me has no business at a magical school. I don’t really fit in with drunken gnomes, goth pixies, or magical bullies. Then there are the smoldering shifter dudes trying to get in my pants (though I don’t have as much of a problem with that).
The faculty thinks I have an ancient, untapped power. And when evil threatens the academy, I have to make a choice: Accept myself as a human, or accept that I’m something different, so I can help keep the evil away from my people back home . . .
Included in this four-book, "why choose" paranormal romance academy box set is a 13,000-word prequel bonus story:
- A Whisper Before Dawn
- A Dream Before Dawn
- A Journey Before Dawn
- A Storm Before Dawn
- When They Come For Us (Prequel)
The Other Magic
Free With Kindle Unlimited
The men secured the shackles slowly, hesitantly, but Kibure did not resist; he couldn’t. Whatever otherworldly power had come over him in those moments of passion had fled his body the second he realized what he had done…
In a realm where only clerics are permitted to practice magic, Kibure’s inexplicable use of power places him in grave danger. In a twist of fate, the rogue priestess hired to strip him of his power chooses instead to help him escape. Her reasons for doing so are her own, but something worse than death awaits if they are unable to evade the Empire's most potent wielders.
A Dragon's Smile

A lonely path…
David is just like any other normal high school student: slacking off from class, planning for the future like he’s got everything figured out, when he receives news of his grandmother’s death.
He has never felt more lost.
A grim secret…
Sara moves in next door on a mission: to befriend David. With her bright smile and outgoing personality, she easily wins him over. This can be the start of her new life.
As long as no one finds out about her secrets.
Will Sara fill the emptiness in David’s life? Or will her past lead them back to where they started before they met each other? All alone?

But my wolf is restless, unsatisfied...
Now, this stunning and wretched guy at work thinks he knows what I am, and decides it’s his mission to make my life hell. He doesn’t know the half of it.
Oh, and this guy? He’s the boss’s son. The heir to the throne, so to speak. But he also might be the only person I can trust when I’m suddenly fired and running for my life.
The secret in our blood could bind us together, or sentence us to death.

Music Fueled by Fantasy
This week I want to feature a unique band. They really embody the power of creativity. If you know me by now, you know I love music. These guys' whole theme is incredible. They manage to blend pop melodies and heavy music in a completely new way. If I were to try to describe their sound, I would say it sounds like Bastille tuned everything down and added some heavier influences. I'm loving it and I hope you do too!
Let me introduce you to Sleep Token
Sleep Token - Granite
Sleep Token - The Summoning

As Promised, here is your FREE Coloring page and a little history on the Tiefling.
Free Coloring Page
Here is a free coloring page of a Tiefling couple from D&D lore! Enjoy!
The Tiefling (pronounced "teef-ling") is a race of planetouched humanoids. Tieflings are primarily human in ancestry, but draw part of their bloodline from a powerful evil extraplanar being.
The term "tiefling" was first applied to all humans whose ancestry included any evil extraplanar being of the Lower Planes, such as a demon, devil, evil deity or other unknown entity. This usage is common among many planar travelers.
More recently, the term commonly refers to a specific type of planetouched humanoid who draw their descent from an infernal being or power of the Nine Hells, most commonly Asmodeus. This includes the descendants of the former empire of Bael Turath who gained infernal form in a pact with Asmodeus, as well as the various planetouched of Faerûn who were transformed into infernal tieflings by Asmodeus during the Spellplague.
