Gray and Graves


C.M. Stunich - 2012
     According to the two dark fae men that’re stalking me: I’m her. Only, I can’t be because I’m undead, raised by a necromancer to live in velvet shadows. The only way I can walk amongst the living? Glamour magic sustained by faerie blood. But with my blood donor dead, and a religious cult trying to kill me, I might actually have to accept help from the House of Gray and Graves, a fae court made up of human souls and madmen. My goals now are simple, but not easy: 1. Cross the veil into Faerie where the chances of making it back alive—or even undead—are slim. 2. Find the blood I need for my glamours, and get back without losing my soul to a banshee, kelpie, or other supernatural baddie. 3. Get home safely and break up with my necromancer/boyfriend and hope he doesn’t send me straight back to the grave. Oh, and try not to fall in love with one or both fae men. Hmm. And I thought being dead was hard. This is way worse. Welcome to a place of lost souls; welcome to Faerie. GRAY AND GRAVES (The Three Courts of Faerie #1) - this is a dark fae urban fantasy novel with a menage twist, meaning our main character will end up with at least two love interests in the end ... or possibly more if she decides to go the reverse harem route. ;) Contains sex, violence, and heaps of magic. Enjoy! A Dark Fae Menage Urban Fantasy.

Oath Forger 1


Nia Mars - 2018
    So what? With society's collapse on Earth, I do what I have to for survival. Especially after I'm kidnapped by space pirates. I have no idea why the five most powerful rulers in the universe decide that I'm the Oath Forger, the one foretold to fuse their royal houses together and bring peace. But I'm going to play along. Because, hey, it's better than probes in uncomfortable places. Now let's just hope they don't find out I'm lying. Excerpt: My attention is glued to the man who sits straight ahead, on a platform of his own, above all others. He's larger than the largest man I had ever seen on Earth. His shoulders are twice as wide as mine. He is wearing a body-hugging suit, a dark blue space material that absorbs light. His muscle definition is... Clearly visible, even from as far away as where I'm standing. Hair the color of indigo spills down to the middle of his back, the kind of hair they used to call a lion's mane on Earth. Straight nose, a jaw that looks like it had been cut from granite. But it's the eyes that render me unable to breathe. His eye color matches his hair, and his gaze is locked on mine. And-here is the weird part-I can feel him in the room. I could almost swear I can hear his heartbeat. My awareness of him is...unearthly. Oh God, I'm cracking. The stress of the abduction has done me in. Next, I will be crying in a heap on the floor like Dee. Krek Koah stands, a fierce expression on his face. The buzz in the room immediately dies. Every single person falls silent. All attention is on him. Without moving his gaze from mine, he says, "I need this room cleared." Here is where I'm seriously glad for the translator in my neck-even with the killer headache I feel coming-because if I didn't understand what he said, I would think it was 'Off with their heads.' And I'm pretty sure I would pee my pants. People file for the exits, no questions, no protest. I'm ready to go. I'm backing away already. "Not you," Krek Koah pronounces, looking straight at me.
