The bundle includes all four complete novels in the series. HEAT - BOOK 1 Unlike the rest of his species, dragon shifter Dane Bennett has dedicated his life to caring for humans, looking out for them, fighting for them, protecting them—and never, ever letting them know what he really is. But after four hundred years, that’s about to change. The dragon inside Dane is telling him that Wesley Byrne, the twin brother of a soldier Dane serves with, is his destiny. The only problem? Dane doesn’t trust his dragon. The pull of a fated mate, though, is just too powerful to resist... SCORCH - BOOK 2 For two hundred years, Maksim has kept his true nature as a dragon shifter secret from the humans he lives among and the men he takes to his bed. He prefers his love life, and life in general, to stay easy… simple…. fun. Maks doesn’t like complications, but when he finally meets his fated mate, claiming him isn’t just complicated… it’s impossible. Fated mates are two halves of the same soul, designated for each other—but Fate isn’t going to make it easy on Maks, because the one man Maks needs is also the one he can’t have. Devin is married. Devin has a child… and a very pregnant wife. Regardless of what fate may have had in mind for Maks, Devin simply isn’t available. IGNITE - BOOK 3 Ben wants a baby, and for five hundred years, he’s been searching for the one man who can give him that: the human man who is the other half of his soul, his fated mate. When Ben finally finds him, though, his mate isn’t at all what he expected. Zander is a loong, a wingless Chinese dragon and the child of fated mates himself. He’s young for a dragon, idealistic, and not at all sure he’s ready to be tied down to a mate and child. When an outside threat makes Zander face losing everything, he has to decide what really matters the most. BLAZE - BOOK 4 Fate hasn't been kind to Ivan, but the long-lived dragon shifter doesn’t blame her. After all, he’s spent the last couple of centuries doing terrible things to humankind, and he's the last person with any right to expect kindness from something as fickle as fate. Some things are simply unforgivable. Ty Byrne is dragonkind’s biggest fan.

    But he’s long been tormented by desires that are far from princely. Especially when the beautiful Cassius is promoted to be his new valet, and Merrick is struck by a longing like never before—a longing to know him far beyond royal and servant. After his father’s passing, Cassius Havendale’s sole duty is to provide for his family. A promotion to serve a pampered prince is something he endures only for their sake. Surely Prince Merrick has no understanding of the true suffering of the common people, nor could he possibly understand what it’s like to desperately desire something he cannot have. Except the prince is not at all what Cassius imagined. Kind, humorous, and caring to those in need, he also shares Cassius’s affinity for the arts. In fact, Merrick understands his deepest vulnerabilities in a most remarkable way. As their affection deepens, the underlying tension between them becomes unbearable and they’re unable to ignore it any longer. But when the queen prepares a lavish ball with all the eligible ladies in the land in attendance, Merrick must fulfill his obligations to his country, and Cassius has the needs of his family to consider. They’ve long known their stolen moments would have to come to an end, but are they ready to give up one another and the idea of a happily-ever-after? ***PLEASE NOTE: EVER AFTER is a romantic fairy tale—minus the magic—that features one compassionate prince, one brooding valet, and plenty of angsty, forbidden love. It’s loosely based on a certain treasured fairy tale in a wintery make-believe setting that wouldn’t be considered contemporary but also isn’t based on any specific time period and doesn’t play by any traditional rules.
