Kate Daniels World

Blood Heir

Atlanta was always a dangerous city. Now, as waves of magic and technology compete for supremacy, it’s a place caught in a slow apocalypse, where monsters spawn among the crumbling skyscrapers and supernatural factions struggle for power and survival.

Eight years ago, Julie Lennart left Atlanta to find out who she was. Now she’s back with a new face, a new magic, and a new name—Aurelia Ryder—drawn by the urgent need to protect the family she left behind. An ancient power is stalking her adopted mother, Kate Daniels, an enemy unlike any other, and a string of horrifying murders is its opening gambit.

If Aurelia’s true identity is discovered, those closest to her will die. So her plan is simple: get in, solve the murders, prevent the prophecy from being fulfilled, and get out without being recognized. She expected danger, but she never anticipated that the only man she'd ever loved could threaten everything.

One small misstep could lead to disaster. But for Aurelia, facing disaster is easy; it’s relationships that are hard.

If they succeed, they'll be rescuing an entire community and can build a strong new base for their family and the Wilmington Pack. If they fail...well, fail is a four-letter word.

Innkeeper Chronicles Vol I

Dina Demille looks like an average sweet Texas gal running a seemingly ordinary Bed and Breakfast, but Dina’s inn is magical, and her fluffy Shih-tzu is a beast. Her guests are certainly not earthly creatures, so don’t expect a normal stay. Don’t also stand too close, or you may end up being collateral damage….

There is however more than meets the eye. Dina’s broom is a lethal weapon and her Inn is magic—so much that it thinks for itself.

Meant to be a guest house for ethereal visitors, the only permanent guest there is a retired Galactic aristocrat; one who fears for her life having been responsible for the deaths of millions.

Soon enough, Dina finds herself juggling between the cosmic vampire soldier and her new neighbor—a vexingly attractive ex-military man who so happens to be an alpha-strain werewolf.

Your safety and comfort is our first priority. The inn and your hosts, Dina Demille and Sean Evans, will defend you at all costs. [But we hope we don’t have to.]

Every winter, Innkeepers look forward to celebrating their own special holiday, which commemorates the ancient treaty that united the very first Inns and established the rules that protect them, their intergalactic guests, and the very unaware/oblivious people of [planet] Earth. By tradition, the Innkeepers welcomed three guests: a warrior, a sage, and a pilgrim, but during the holiday, Innkeepers must open their doors to anyone who seeks lodging. Anyone.

All Dina hopes is that the guests and conduct themselves in a polite manner. But what’s a holiday without at least one disaster?

Sweep of the Heart

Life is busier than ever for Innkeeper, Dina DeMille and Sean Evans. But it's about to get even more chaotic when Sean's werewolf mentor is kidnapped. To find him, they must host an intergalactic spouse-search for one of the most powerful rulers in the Galaxy. 

Dina is never one to back down from a challenge. That is, if she can manage her temperamental Red Cleaver chef; the consequences of her favorite Galactic ex-tyrant's dark history; the tangled politics of an interstellar nation, and oh, yes, keep the wedding candidates from a dozen alien species from killing each other. Not to mention the Costco lady.

They say love is a battlefield; but Dina and Sean are determined to limit the casualties!

The World of Kinsmen

Silent Blade

“Family is everything. Talent is power. And revenge is sweet.”

In a distant future, small powerful groups of genetically and technologically advanced families by the name Kinsmen control extensive financial empires.
They rule themselves in their own country and their only limits are other Kinsmen.

The struggle for power is a fiercely contested sport; one decided on the battlefield and sometimes in the bedroom.

“Old hatreds die hard. Old love dies harder.”

On the planet Rada, Meli Galdes’ family is low ranking, and they as such count on her marriage to Celino to improve their status.

But when the merciless leader of the mighty Carvanna empire suddenly calls off the engagement, Meli takes off and becomes one of the most lethal of assassins there is.

Her biggest assignment will be to kill the man who ruined her life.

Fated Blades

At first glance, the planet Rada seems like a lush paradise. But the ruling families, all boasting genetically enhanced abilities, are in constant competition for power―and none more so than the Adlers and the Baenas. For generations, the powerful families have pushed and pulled each other in a dance for dominance.

Until a catastrophic betrayal from within changes everything.

Now, deadly, disciplined, and solitary leaders Ramona Adler and Matias Baena must put aside their enmity and work together in secret to prevent sinister forces from exploiting universe-altering technology. Expecting to suffer through their uneasy alliance, Ramona and Matias instead discover that they understand each other as no one in their families can―and that their combined skills may eclipse the risks of their forbidden alliance.

As the two warriors risk their lives to save their families, they must decide whether to resist or embrace the passion simmering between them. For now, the dance between their families continues―but just one misstep could spell the end of them both.
