Hybrid (Sector Three)


Apryl Baker - 2016
    The word follows Katyia Dragonovich, bastard daughter of the Regent of Sector Three. After being turned over to the vampire clan by the only mother she has ever known, Katya swears vengeance. Although terrified, she boldly faces her new future, even if it’s an uncertain one with a man who is as cold as the mountain’s ice caps. When the Vampire clan discovers one of their new turns has been infected with ravager blood, they rally for her extermination. They cannot allow anything carrying the mark of the monstrous creatures that have overrun their world to live among them. But Roman Stratcovich, rightful king of the Vampire clans, has other plans. This hybrid woman—part witch, part vampire, part ravager—may be the secret to gaining what he’s lost. More than that, however, she’s also the key to unlocking his cold heart. The question is, does he want her to?

Red Magic (Sector Six)


J.C. Andrijeski - 2016
    Not a bit o' ye. You're red magic... like me."Born to be successor to the Regent's throne, and the highest-ranked witch in the holy lands of District 6, Maia sees her birthright as little more than a genetic practical joke, and a source of constant worry. Unlike every other witch Maia knows, and certainly her mother, Maia is a hopelessly, terrible witch. She can't do magic at all, no matter how hard she tries. Faced with the looming humiliation of being replaced as successor to the throne, Maia is on the verge of giving up when a chance meeting on a lonely pier changes everything for her. A lone, angry warlock makes a deal with her that morning: he'll tell her who and what she really is, if she agrees to set him free. The fact that he's handsome, frustratingly familiar in some way she can't pinpoint, and seems to know more about her than she knows herself, causes her to take his questionable deal. In doing so, Maia learns things about her perfect, idyllic kingdom that she never wanted to know, and nothing in her life will ever be the same again.Praise for JC Andrijeski's Writing"Andrijeski delivers a whopper of an action flick..." ~ New Myths"The sexual tension is scorching..." ~ The Muses Circle"Amazing characters in an out-of-this-world scenario..." ~ The Indie Bookshelf"The most impressive display of world-building I have seen in a while." ~ I (Heart) Reading
