Augustus' people had spent years in talks with the humans, moving toward the day when the Seven, the preternatural races of beings on earth could "come of the darkness" and integrate with society. He had pulled himself away from the peace he'd found on Santuary, his ranch in Texas, to lend his efforts toward the goal.

Birthright


Kit Fawkes - 2017

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!).
