The Protectors Quick Bites Series by Keira Blackwood, Eva Knight

In the wake of a tragedy, I find my fate. One glimpse of her, and I know without question. She has a gaze as blue as the sky and determination beyond reason. Her family's ranch teeters on the brink of failure, yet she fights to save what she holds dear, even if she has to do it alone. Fate is fearless and caring. And she sees me—not just the man, not just the wolf. She sees what lies beneath, and she doesn't run. She's meant to be mine. Fate is Harper, the girl next door... moreIn the wake of a tragedy, I find my fate. One glimpse of her, and I know without question. She has a gaze as blue as the sky and determination beyond reason.

As the daughter of a dream witch, Valerie has three tricks up her sleeve—even if she hasn’t mastered her powers yet. 1. Count your fingers—if there aren’t ten, you aren’t awake. 2. Magical objects can be used against you. Get smart and wield their power first.  3. When all else fails, summon a guardian—make him a shifter, a beast of a man built to protect you, built to satisfy your every desire. But be careful, because it can get awkward when dreams and reality collide.. moreAs the daughter of a dream witch, Valerie has three tricks up her sleeve—even if she hasn’t mastered her powers yet. 1.

Mates, Mermaids, & Murder. Cats and water don’t mix. Tigers aren’t meant to be dragged to the bottom of the sea, even if it’s to solve a murder. But that itch to claw my way to the surface—it’s blown away by an entirely different desire. She has unearthly silver hair and violet eyes…not to mention the tail of a fish. But my tiger roars to claim this mermaid, fins and scales and whatever else comes along with her. We come from different worlds, but fate forces us together... moreMates, Mermaids, & Murder.

Werewolves don’t exist.  But that won’t stop me from claiming the bounty. Gemma One last mission, one last score—that’s all it’ll take to pay for my brother’s surgery. If I didn’t need the money, would I take the case anyway? Yup. Nothing compares to the thrill of the hunt.  I don’t do partners, and I’m not sharing the bounty. It’s mine. That doesn’t mean I’ll shy away from a little friendly competition... moreWerewolves don’t exist.  But that won’t stop me from claiming the bounty.

Nothing compares to the thrill of the hunt.  I don’t do partners, and I’m not sharing the bounty. It’s mine. That doesn’t mean I’ll shy away from a little friendly competition. We can make it even friendlier if that competition is built like a god and wrapped up like a present in a perfectly-fitted suit. Sebastian Forget field missions. Leave me to test DNA in my lab, and I’m content. I don’t want to investigate the recent wolf attacks or have anything at all to do with the sleepy town of Wakeforest—until I catch her scent. She smells like sweet gardenias. It's a stark contrast to her fiery red curls, not to mention she has curves for days. Before I learn her name, I know without question that this woman is trouble—and she's my mate. Quick Bites are stand alone stories you can devour in a flash.

Fight or flight, she’ll choose flight every time. Ravens are supposed to be intelligent, secretive, and high in creep-factor. Not to mention the whole loving shiny objects thing. Madison didn’t get her PhD based on physical prowess. She can’t speak much for the rest. She likes quiet. She likes order. She like everything he’s not. But when he runs into the darkness, she follows. She can’t turn away. Maybe she's lost her mind... moreFight or flight, she’ll choose flight every time.

A status quo explosion puts Aubrey in charge of her shifter military team. She’s both capable and ready to tame the chaos. Until her team goes rogue. At the very worst moment, a tall, dark, and meowza-level hottie steps in. Oliver isn't just there to watch her fail. He’s there to steal her brand spanking new job. He’s closed off and skeptical. He’s as infuriating as he is domineering, and he’s totally strip-worthy.  And he wants to get naked. It’s all in a day’s work... moreA status quo explosion puts Aubrey in charge of her shifter military team. She’s both capable and ready to tame the chaos. Until her team goes rogue.
