Fae are disappearing at an alarming rate and Rori MacNair must find out why before civil war ignites between the Seelie and Unseelie queens. When she wakes up alone in a strange forest, she must rely solely on her own wits to prevail against the dark forces rising against her people.

Assassins are taught to trust none but themselves, but Rori rarely plays by the rules. Dare she trust the mysterious stranger Therron when illusions cloud reality and nothing is as it seems? Her life, and those of Faerie might depend upon it.

Therron Mistwalker is hiding a secret. Having forsaken his kingdom, he lives as a thief among the fae, but when Rori enters his life he fears his days of autonomy are at an end. It’s a day he’s been dreading since he was born.

Relations between Faerie and the human realm are about to turn from respectful to hostile, and it’s up to Rori and Therron to find the enchantress responsible. . . if they can get over their differences long enough to do so.

Begin the explosive adventures of the MacNair clan as they unravel a mystery that threatens an entire realm.

Cian MacNair is Faerie’s best assassin. He knows the rules, hell, he made half of them. Rule number one: Never fall in love with your mark.

Sent to the human realm to discover who’s been kidnapping fae, he’s tangled in a web of deceit that threatens not only Faerie, but the humans as well. It’ll take working with the enemy to uncover who the real villain is.

There’s just one problem. She’s been sent to take him out before he discovers too much.

Who will die? A madman hunts fae, a life falters beneath the glass. Nikala’s world crumbled when Cian killed Malcolm and then disappeared through the doorway to Faerie. As she struggles to hold the reigns of Malcolm’s business, and of her heart, she begins to lose hope of ever seeing the mysterious fae again. When his sister Rori arrives unexpectedly, she’ll be forced to feign indifference to save the girl’s life. But Rori MacNair isn’t a pushover and Nikala will have to make a hard choice that might destroy any chance of happiness she hoped to have with Cian. As Cian lays dying from his injuries sustained in the human realm, Rori takes it upon herself to find out what happened, and why he isn’t healing. The man she thought could give her answers is dead, and in his place is a woman whose name Rori’s heard before—from her own brother. She’ll have to work with the enemy to save Cian’s life. There’s just one problem—Nikala doesn’t want anything to do with her. As hostilities rise, loyalties must be drawn, alliances made. Will the fate of both worlds rest on the legacy of one? Or will a shadow from the past emerge to claim what they believe is rightfully theirs? Some legacies are better left forgotten.]]> Who will rise? Who will die?

Every sunset, Rainne is cursed to change from an elf maiden into a lust-fueled ogress. She keeps her ogre desires under control until an elf prince arrives and upsets her precariously balanced life. The ogress in her desires Prince Theo and will break every rule, entertain every taboo, and defy certain death to have him. When he commands Rainne to join him at the elven palace, she can’t refuse. Nor will she be able to hide her secret. Theo never thought he’d leave the luxurious palace of Elvenwood, but when his older brother disappears, he’s sent to find him. A chance encounter with the mysterious, yet lovely Lady Delarainne, gives him the reason he needs to return home. The only problem? There’s a mysterious woman following them and he’s determined to learn her secrets. The longer Rainne is away from home, the harder it becomes to keep the ogress from taking over permanently. The more time she spends with Theo, the harder it is to stop herself from falling for the prince. To save him, she’ll have to escape his lavish palace before he learns the harsh truth of who and what she is. But not all beliefs are true, and learning to forgive is harder than it seems. If Rainne doesn’t break the curse, she’ll lose more than just Theo—she’ll lose her elven soul to the greedy ogress spirit that wants to consume all that Rainne holds dear.
