With scholarships to a prestigious military school, Grayden and Wynn are thirsty for adventure. But the night before they leave, they discover the mysterious Dalmir and his arcane orb in the forsaken tower outside of town. The old man, who seems to have a wealth of knowledge of what came before and yet so little of the now, insists on accompanying them as they travel to the academy.

Advancing his growing power, the Dread Prince breaks free of his prison and brings a faction of dragons under his control, stirring unrest and hatred in the newly united kingdoms of Tellurae Aquaous. When the dragon wards of Kallayohm are targeted in a ruthless attack, the High King travels there to administer justice. But the trial results in a crippling blow that leaves him reeling. 

Danielle and Ethan may have solved their problem with vampires, but other magical beings have taken interest in the ones who discovered the cure. On the run trying to escape a gaggle of evil pixies, a clan of creepy werewolves, a coven or two of wicked witches, and a school of lovely but malicious mermaids, they fight to have a normal life. But that isn't so easy when the only aid they have is from slightly dishonest fairies and flirtatious vampire bodyguards.

The Fateful Trilogy continues with Fractured. No, it's not called Fractured because Ethan and Danielle break up, because they don't...in case you were wondering. They had thought they'd escaped most of the danger surrounding them, when in truth they've made it worse by unintentionally sparking a civil war amongst vampires. Many vampires want to protect them for discovering the cure to the curse binding their kind. However many more want to destroy them for that same discovery.

When Viola shifts into a dragon Queen after the centuries-old curse has been broken, she is taken prisoner by a greedy stud who wants her to have his babies. Rescued by the dragon embassy and put into protective custody, Viola tries to learn about her new place in dragon society, but her entire world has turned upside down with bizarre rules and rituals she can’t even fathom. Sergei hates Queens. But Viola is more human than dragon.

The years of Oraeyn’s short rule have been peaceful, but now ominous nightmares plague his sleep and cling to him during his waking hours. When two of his most trusted advisors disappear without a trace and not even the power of dragons can locate them, the fell promise of the king’s nightmares becomes reality.

When the cult of humanity sacrificed a dragon queen, they crippled the breeding process. A female hasn’t been hatched or shape shifted in over 1,000 years. Carolyn believes with all her heart that she will shift into a dragon. Everyone else thinks she’s crazy. Especially Reed, a sexy dragon, whose disdain for humans almost hides the magnetic attraction they have for each other. However, when Carolyn manifests a breath weapon, she’s suddenly the new queen on the block.

It isn't every day a sexy demigod throws a pissed-off Cupid onto psychologist Matilda Schmidt's couch and informs her the fate of the world depends on her ability to get him off his diapered ass and back to helping people fall in love. But first she'll need to convince a seductive hit man he's snatched the wrong woman before he convinces her he might be the right man - for a night.

A vampire story with a fairytale twist. Set during Fractured, book two in the Fateful Vampire series. Ever wonder about what happens when Max and Nadia elope to Gretna Green to renew their weddings vows?

Als Professor Afaldo Craft zufällig diese Parallelwelt entdeckt, wird er in einen epischen Kampf um das Überleben dieser neuen Welt verwickelt.

Christian Fürchtegott Gellert (1715-1769) war ein deutscher Dichter und Moralphilosoph der Aufklärung und galt zu seinen Lebzeiten neben Christian Felix Weiße als meistgelesener deutscher Schriftsteller. Ob er uns Heutigen noch etwas zu sagen hat? Einige seiner meist kurzen Gedichte mögen etwas trivial wirken, enthalten auch Klischees, die vor allem manchen Hörerinnen nicht gefallen werden. Aber viele sind zeitlos weise, lebensklug, jedenfalls zum Nachdenken anregend, oft auch einfach vergnüglich und manchmal, was die Arbeit eines Autors anlangt, selbstironisch. Pauschal zu verachten sind sie gewiss nicht.

Running afoul of a pants-less ghost pirate wasn't exactly what paranormal psychologist Matilda Schmidt had in mind when she took off for some R&R. Even at a quiet beach-side bungalow, Matilda can't catch a moment's peace when the restless spirits aren't the only ones haunting her bedroom. Marooned by a disappearing demigod, and seeking a solution to banish her unwelcome guests, Matilda rides shotgun with a hit man who's better at making ghosts than eliminating them.

Paranormal psychologist Matilda Schmidt is sick of secrets. But when her troubled mother falls into dangerous hands, she must enlist the help of the two men who may be hiding the most: the hot-bodied demigod who's suddenly tight-lipped about his current client, and the delicious hit man who's been concealing much more than a gun in his pocket.

When pictures surface of Matilda caught in the middle of a hit man-Cupid sandwich, she lands in the oily grip of a ruthless blackmailer whose motives are as ugly as his mustache. Now Matilda must betray the trust of someone who cares for her to meet the blackmailer's demands, or she can kiss her reputation, her practice, and even her freedom good-bye. But blackmail is only the beginning when the immortal mystery client brought to her couch by a seductive demigod causes Matilda to fling caution - along with her panties - to the wind.
