New York is my prison. Once a sought-after assassin, a single error in judgment landed me in servitude to House August, the most powerful vampire family in North America. Now I use my special brand of magic as a member of their security team, fighting monsters in the city and keeping the royal family’s many enemies at bay. When the queen summons me for an assignment and offers my freedom in return, I want to jump at the chance—until she tells me what the assignment is. Like a valiant knight, I am to escort her son from the family’s stronghold in Florida back to New York, which would be difficult enough without my messy romantic history with the rogue prince. I accept the job because my freedom means more than my wounded pride. Darkness and monsters stand between us and our destination. Thankfully I’ve never been afraid of either one. I soon discover there’s more at stake than the return of the prodigal son. Even if we survive our enemies, I’m not sure I’ll survive the journey with the vampire who broke my heart. Endless Knight, Midnight Empire: The Restoration, is the first book in a new urban fantasy trilogy set in the same world as Wild Knight, Midnight Empire: The Tower. less

I thought my newfound freedom would allow me to shake off the stink of New York City and start a new life somewhere else, a place where nobody knows me as Death Bringer or Britt the Bloody. A place where I’m not associated with ridiculous prophecies. Looks like fate has other plans. When the city is attacked, I find myself on the wrong side of the border. The only option is to take up arms alongside my vampire overlords and fight my way out... moreI thought my newfound freedom would allow me to shake off the stink of New York City and start a new life somewhere else, a place where nobody knows me as Death Bringer or Britt the Bloody. A place where I’m not associated with ridiculous prophecies. Looks like fate has other plans. When the city is attacked, I find myself on the wrong side of the border. The only option is to take up arms alongside my vampire overlords and fight my way out. It doesn’t help that Alaric is by my side, reminding me of exactly what I’d be leaving behind. My instinct is to fight for myself—for survival—but at some point I realize I just might be fighting for a hell of a lot more. Red Rook is the second book in the Midnight Empire: The Restoration trilogy. If you missed the initial series, be sure to start with Wild Knight, Midnight Empire: The Tower, book 1. less

I didn’t ask to be part of a prophecy and I certainly didn’t ask to be held captive by zealots. They may call me a savior, but they treat me like a sacrifice they’re waiting to make to the gods. Not much of a sacrifice given what they think of me. My only saving grace is that I don’t have to face the dangers alone. This time I have an ally in the form of a knight from Britannia City—London Hayes... moreI didn’t ask to be part of a prophecy and I certainly didn’t ask to be held captive by zealots. They may call me a savior, but they treat me like a sacrifice they’re waiting to make to the gods. Not much of a sacrifice given what they think of me. My only saving grace is that I don’t have to face the dangers alone. This time I have an ally in the form of a knight from Britannia City—London Hayes. Unfortunately, nobody knows where we are or what the group intends to do with us, which means we’re on our own. Meanwhile, there are larger forces at work that threaten to tilt our vampire-ruled world on its axis and it’s up to us to stop them—if we can escape our captors in time. Glass King is the third and final book in the Midnight Empire: The Restoration trilogy, but be sure not to miss other books in the Midnight Empire saga. less
