I’ve always been fascinated by demons. It’s a fascination I’ve never quite learned to control and it just might get me killed. One fateful night, a darkly handsome, not-quite-human patron grabs my arm, leaving a magical mark burnt into my skin. Determined to find out what the mark means, I do the unthinkable: I venture alone into the demon realm. What I discover is terrifying. Things are changing in Darktown. The ancient enchantment that maintains the Barrier between worlds is failing. Demons are breaking into the human realm, ready to kill. And I just might hold the key to restoring the Barrier. Four sexy Darktown residents are magically bound to protect me. But can my dark protectors keep me safe for long enough that I can uncover my true destiny?

But if I have to give the demon asshole what he wants to get him to help with a spell for my cursed mother, I’ll do it. Even if it means my family will never be complete, that the Oracle’s prediction of me having four soulmates, four husbands to share a life with, is all a lie … I’ll do it.

Birthright


Kit Fawkes - 2017
    She doesn’t discover that until the night her father dies, and she learns he wasn’t her father. He kidnapped her as a baby from her birth parents, Jim and Carol Allis. They seem ecstatic to find her, but she quickly learns they, along with their powerful dragon-shifter ally Pytor Douglas, have nefarious plans for her. She runs straight into the arms of another mysterious group, and they tell her she’s a Trueblood—descended from all the mythic races and capable of great power. She’s at risk, but the Council assigns her six bodyguards, and the Oracle has seen her future husband is among the six. North is dragged from realm to realm to learn how to use her powers. That task seems impossible—almost as impossible as choosing just one man from among the six mythics entrusted with her protection. How can she choose between a vampire, an angel, a demon, a witch, a dark elf, and a wolf-shifter when each of the men is perfect for her in different ways? Dare she risk everything and choose them all? Will she have a chance to make the decision, or will Pytor’s group get her first? This is the first in a multi-book series that will require reading in order to understand the plot arc. “Birthright” introduces the characters and has an incomplete ending. The story will continue in the next book (“Fire & Ice”) and so on. It is a PNR reverse harem story, and the heat factor will likely be high in later books, though this one is tame (not even a kiss yet, darn it!).
