Briefly, he considered just running. He considered making a dash for the dimensional door. But he couldn’t do that. He couldn’t. It was already too late. The exciting conclusion to the Vampire Detective Midnight series! Nick stood mere feet from the portal when the racial authorities descended. He stood mere feet from the dimensional door that should have taken him and his family away for good. He’d been close enough to touch it, close enough to feel it. But it all got snatched away. Now he’s back working the streets as a Midnight, a vampire owned by the human police. His bosses definitely grip his leash tighter since his…

“I smelled something.” Nick’s voice sounded as empty and dead as his eyes. “I smelled something, and tracked it here…” Black gets a new case, solving the murder of the most famous tech mogul in the world, Lucian Rucker, after he’s gunned down on his company’s steps. Unfortunately, no one else knows Lucian’s dead, not even the police, and Lucian’s stock holders and lawyer, the same people who hired Black, would very much like to keep it that way. They want Black to solve it, yet refuse him access to the body, Rucker’s companies, and the mysterious tech Rucker was working on before his death, which might be the motive. More than…

For the first time in weeks, months… longer than I could remember, really… I knew exactly where I was. I knew exactly who I was. I knew who I’d been. River starts to remember her old self and her old life. She recognizes Valek––sort of, although she has no memory of their marriage. She remembers enough to know her house in Pacific Palisades isn’t right, and the story her friends told her about what happened to her isn’t right, either. She comes back to herself entirely in the end, but definitely not the same. She’s more changed than her half-bonded and emotionally volatile husband, Valek, can deal with at first. The details of how…

All he could see was his wife. All he could comprehend was that he’d already lost her. He watched her walk through that open portal… …then everything flashed white. River is gone. The dark seers known as the Eye stole her right out of his hands. He nearly died trying to stop it from happening, but it wasn’t enough. Now all he can do is go after her, hunt down the beings who did this to them, who tore away his wife before they’d even completed the bond. He’ll kill anyone who stands in his way. The Eye claims they own her, that River belongs to them, but the Eye speaks only lies, and Valek knows the truth. Unfortunately, it’s not…

“The opening is small, Esteemed Bridge,” he said politely. River frowned. Truthfully, she wasn’t too keen on them calling her that. Especially since she still had no idea what it meant. She didn’t bother asking him to stop, however. She had an odd feeling it wouldn’t do much good, anyway. River and Valek now live on a new version of Earth, where a city of seers and humans knows them from a past life. These strangers remember them as friends, as family. They look up to them as leaders and warriors. They know things Valek and River have no memory of, about a past which, for them, happened recently enough to be deeply painful. Here,…

“We will get past this, you and I,” the big male said. “I am certain of it.” Valek’s muscles tensed as the other male spoke. He already knew the other seer was wrong. He already knew he would have to kill him. River and Valek wake to find themselves trapped inside their own worst nightmare: sight-collared, drugged, chained to the walls of a blank metal room. They trusted the wrong people, who handed them over to a being who might work for The Eye, the dark seers they’ve spent months trying to evade. All they want is to get back to the universe’s last inter-dimensional portal, the only way back to Valek’s home world. Valek promised…

“I can think of lots of reasons why someone might want to kill me. Sadly, none are anything I can reasonably pin on Targen…” Grago quirked an eyebrow. “…Although,” River went on, a touch lighter. “I can think of a much longer list of reasons why some might want to kill him.” River just landed on a new world, with all new laws, customs, clothing, and enemies. Here, River is property, a slave in all but name, and she belongs exclusively to her abductor, Valek Targen, who still refuses to tell her anywhere near enough, despite escalating dangers facing them both. Luckily, Targen’s friend, a human named Grago, is more than willing to…

Back up. Down the ladder, sister. Her hands gripped the holes in the wall. “Am I a prisoner?” Surprise flickered over his face, a bare ripple. River got the sense the surprise was real. She also got the feeling people didn’t question him much. River Cleopatra Jones just finished a movie shoot as a stuntwoman in Hollywood, California, when she’s abducted by surly, uncommunicative space pirate, Valek Targen. After scaring her, blowing a hole through the middle of her ex-boyfriend, and unceremoniously knocking her out, he informs River that her “real” family hired him to bring her back. He also tells her they live in a different…

No one really believed he could be killed. No one except him. No one could defeat Germany in the Great War. Not while Syrimne d’Gaos, “Sword of the Gods,” fought under their banner. The telekinetic seer wiped out thousands in a single battle. He tore through Europe and left a swath of blood and bodies in his wake. His master didn’t truly serve Germany, though. The war was simply a tool, a means of wiping out humans as quickly as possible. He’d never be satisfied with anything less than the subjugation or death of the entire damned race. As for the weapon himself, well… no one really asked him what he thought. Now he’s being…

She crashed through the balcony doors covered in blood. It panicked him out of his mind when he thought it was hers. It nearly destroyed her when she realized it wasn’t. After the best night of his life, Dags Jourdain, P.I. and fallen angel, wakes up to a nightmare. She said yes. His girlfriend, now his fiancée, said yes to him, and now she could go down for murder one if he doesn’t get in the way. He has to find out what happened for those hours she blacked out and her angel side took control. All he has are a few cryptic words her angel spoke to him, and her colliding into their hotel room covered in someone else’s blood. He…

“If there ever was a race-traitor job, this was definitely it.” Revik, infamous seer and ex-lieutenant of the Rooks’ dark army, arrives in London with a new job, a new home, and new people watching him. Some want to control him, some want to bed him, and some want to kill him for a past he can’t seem to escape. None of that exactly helps him do his shadow job, his real job, as guardian to the holy Seer known as “The Bridge.” As for the Bridge herself, she has no idea who she is, or even that she’s Seer. Known by her human friends and family simply as “Allie,” she definitely has no idea of the powerful forces arrayed against her, or…

Nick Midnight, homicide detective, just got transferred to New York City. The government owns him. Then again, humans own all vampires these days. Cops are “Midnights.” Scientists “Galileos.” Soldiers “Centurions.” Things will be different in New York. No complications. No kids needing his help. None of that human-vampire-psychic crap that got him in trouble in the past, or turned him evil for nearly a century. He’d keep his head down, do his job for the NYPD, where he helps humans hunt down murderers. But Nick’s first big case involves an illegal species that could get him killed. And another kid who needs his help. Because of…

“A hundred thousand to fight. Twice that, if you win.” Walking up to Nick at the underground vampire fights, a well-dressed promoter hands Nick a card, offering him a bucketload of cash for a few hours’ work. All he has to do is fight another vampire. If Nick can pull it off, he might have a lead on a big new case. Someone in the boxing circuit is murdering vampires, selling their parts on the black market, dumping their desiccated bodies outside the city dome. The NYPD doesn’t have a clue who’s behind it, and the lead detective wants Nick to use his new “in” to get inside the exclusive fight community. Of course, Nick’s new…

An old lover haunts Nick’s dreams. Nick has no idea why, or why he can’t remember. Weirdest crime scene ever? Check. Guy eaten by a sentient wall? Check. Every shady government agency in existence playing coverup? Check. But is it murder? Nick Tanaka, vampire homicide detective for the NYPD, stumbles into a political minefield when their new Midnight, a rookie vampire cop straight out of the police academy, shows up dead inside a high security vault. Morley, Nick’s boss, wants answers, but no one wants the NYPD on the case. As a favor to Morley, Nick agrees to help, going to his contacts in the military-industrial complex to…

When a terrorist group threatens Wynter, Nick will do anything to keep her safe. Even if it means rejoining the underground vampire mafia known as the White Death. Dimitry Yi, infamous anti-vampire extremist, has been missing for weeks. His rabid followers are losing their minds. Dead bodies start appearing around the city, marked with the symbol of Dimitry Yi. Riots break out in vampire neighborhoods, even as bombs go off at government buildings and cafes. New York grows increasingly violent and unstable, bringing pressure from many to just give the terrorists what they want. The message is clear: give them their leader back,…

They say you can never go home again. In Nick’s case, he can’t seem to escape it. San Francisco seems determined to suck him back in, whether he wants it or not. But it’s only a few days. He can do a few days without dying, right? A high-profile cage match brings Nick back to his hometown, to fight for Farlucci’s vampire fight club. After years of avoiding going back, avoiding the crushing memories that live on those twisty streets, Nick returns now as a champion fighter and a celebrity. He can’t go anywhere without being recognized, and mobbed by excited fans. While signing autographs, Nick is accosted by a strange vampire who…

They’d put him into the shadow worlds. They’d taken him from his home. But he would return now. He would return to where he belonged. Home lives a lot further away than Nick Midnight ever imagined. Yet, for the first time in two hundred years, he can contemplate going back. No way is he going alone. He has a new family here, in this version of New York, and he’s not going anywhere without them. He’s especially not going anywhere without his mate, Wynter James, and the two orphan seers he more or less adopted. But Nick’s not the only vampire who wants a way out of this dystopian world. He’s hunted by a shadowy force, a dark…
