You can start with any of them, but if you want to read all three sets, the recommended order is:Tyler's SagaEmma's SagaAsh's SagaAUTHOR Q&AHow would you describe this series?The books are fast-paced paranormal/urban fantasy thrillers with both action and romance. When I began writing this series, I set out to create something for readers who enjoy a thought-provoking book. Heartblaze books are told from the point of view of multiple characters and take place in the present-day as well as the past. These books are not for people looking for light and fluffy reading, nor for readers completely unfamiliar with the genre.Is this series appropriate for all ages?No. The series is written for adults, young adults, and mature teens.What types of creatures are in the novel?Quite a number: vampires, werewolves, werebears, ghosts, witches, and fae. All of them are portrayed in new ways. For example, the werewolves are shifters who channel animal spirits from the distant past. The fae have their own unique language that plays a role in some of the books. It’s a functional language that I spent a year developing!

He did it himself, even as I fought him, because he could. He told me soon I would beg him to ravage me... and I did.

I begged because my body knew its master, and it didn't give me a choice. But my body is not all he plans to claim. He wants my mind and my soul too, and he will have them. He's going to take so much of me there will be nothing left. He's going to consume me. Publisher's Note: Inferno includes spankings, rough, intense sexual scenes, and strong D/s themes.
