The Hunt Continues. A betrayer hides among the immortals of Detroit, a threat that could very well send not just the immortals, but the rest of the mortal realm into chaos. Violent souls have escaped their prison in the Nether, and the appearance of the undead, created by a rite long forgotten by most beings, only adds to the imminent danger. Eunomia, created for the sole purpose of hunting the souls of the dead, searches ceaselessly for those who have escaped her Queen, as well as those new creations, the undead, which only she and her New Guardians can capture.

When Shannen of House Lyon found herself wed to the alien Maarlai prince, she was certain that her marriage would be the strangest (yet most wonderful) part of her life. She did not expect to find herself thrust not into a war, but also a quest for the crown that should have rightfully been hers. Shannen’s journey to claim her crown leads her to friends, allies, and enemies, and, when the absolutely unthinkable happens, she learns what responsibility and leadership truly entail. As Daarik works to unify the Maarlai, he remains conflicted about the task his wife is undertaking. Strong-willed as Shannen is, he regrets agreeing to her insane plot to overthrow the human king. In the end, all of them: prince, princess, human, Maarlai, traitors and faithful, must unite to face a foe none of them could have ever imagined. Loyalty, love, and unity are the only things that will allow them survive, but only if they are strong enough to put aside the ills of the past.

Superheroes existDriven, honest, courageous… true heroes. They live among us, and all over the world, they save lives. Their stories are told in hushed tones to rapt audiences, over and over again, myths of epic proportions. This is not that kind of storyJolene Faraday is the girl next door, the type of woman who will babysit your kids or lend you twenty bucks when you get into a bind. She takes care of her mother, works her way through college, and even escorts her elderly friend to church. But no one knows the other side of her story. Jolene is also the Detroit area’s most infamous, infuriating burglar, robbing the mansions of the wealthy and making a mockery of the law enforcement officials who vow that each job will be her last. She thrives on the chaos, the infamy, the pure thrill of every heist she pulls off. And then one day, it happens. Across the globe, a new wave of ordinary people find themselves with super powers. Some hide, afraid of what they’ve become. Some become heroes; others, villains. Jolene just becomes a better crook. And suddenly, it’s not just police officers after her. She’s officially under the jurisdiction of StrikeForce, Detroit’s supernatural law enforcement force, an agency shrouded in mystery. As her actions become more audacious and the world begins to see that she is far more dangerous than they ever realized, she finds herself on StirkeForce’s most wanted list. Which leaves her with a choice to make: learn how to become a hero, or embrace life as a super villain.**

Molly was beginning to have the type of life she'd only ever dreamed of: friends, family, rewarding work. Respect. Love. And her actions put her world, and every person she loved, in danger. So she did what she had to do: she protected her world from war. A war she caused, a war fought because of who she is, and what she is capable of. She never could have imagined that in doing so, she would be taken away from everything that mattered most to her. Lost in a hostile world, away from everyone and everything that ever mattered to her, Molly has to find a way to make peace, and then she has to find a way make her way back home. Assuming she can survive that long. When and if she gets there, will the world she loves still be the same?

In the ten years since the end of the Undead Wars, Molly Brooks, goddess of death and protector of the Earthly realm, has achieved what no one would have thought possible: world peace. The Earth thrives under her protection, and her family and friends are finally safe from the enemies who have targeted her. But not all of Molly's battles are about her, and an ancient nemesis is ready to make his move on her world. With her mate and her closest allies at her side, Molly will face attacks from enemies both strange and well-known to her. This time around, the power of the gods just might not be enough.

Marriage between two demonic beings is bound to be a challenge, but Molly Brooks never expected to feel like she and her husband, Nain, would start drifting apart the way they have. Between her endless responsibilities in the Netherwoods and his role in Detroit’s supernatural community, they go days at a time with barely a chance to speak to each other. Add to that life with two challenging toddlers, family lurking around at every moment, and a castle full of imp guards, demons, and immortals, and it’s no wonder the magic seems a little… less magical. Their family and friends have been urging them to take a rest, but both stubbornly resist, bound to duty in ways neither of them expected. When Nain gets injured, they’re forced to face the fact that maybe it’s time for a break. And Molly knows exactly where to take her 300 year old husband… well, not where, exactly. But when. On a trip that enables them to not only reconnect with the city they love, but with each other as well, they discover that they have unresolved issues between them, and that there is so much more to making a relationship work than just wishing it. In this Hidden twist on a beloved O. Henry story, Molly and Nain will face off against gangsters, demons, and sometimes their own family, but in the end, they’ll discover just how much stronger they truly are when they’re together.

Hephaestus. God of fire. God of blacksmiths. Reviled son of Zeus and former husband of the goddess of love. He's found his place in the mortal realm, working with his friend Molly and her team of supernaturals. And he's fine. He's good. There isn't a single thing he needs. Until the day a witchy waitress walks into his life. Can he get over a lifetime of rejection and the dangers of his own past and finally give happiness a chance? Or is he destined to spend his long life alone?

It isn’t everyday that you find yourself responsible for overthrowing the leadership of a superhero team. Unfortunately for Jolene Faraday, AKA Daystar, she doesn’t have much time to bask in the glow of her victory over Alpha and his cronies at StrikeForce. Though StrikeForce is working to regain its reputation and be taken seriously, the villains they need to handle are out there right now, and StrikeForce is nowhere near ready to deal with them. Dr. Death, responsible for the deaths of nearly three dozen people when one of his experiments went awry in downtown Detroit, is still on the loose, and it’s only a matter of time before he comes up with another maniacal plan. Super powered people are going missing all over the world, and then there’s that whole “now what do we do with Alpha?” issue. Aside from that, Jolene is still adjusting to the injuries she sustained the last time she faced off against Death and his crew, as well as dealing with the weight of keeping her past life and her superhero life separate. She can’t seem to find enough time for her irritating sort-of superhero boyfriend, and her friends don’t entirely trust her. Probably with good reason. All of that means nothing when Jolene is faced with betrayal, heartbreak, and questions of loyalty. In the end she’ll have to decide whether to keep to the superhero route, or risk becoming the very thing StirkeForce always feared she would be.

One moment, one mistake, changed Jolene Faraday's life forever. Devoted entirely now to bringing down the super villain known as Killjoy, she spends every waking moment working toward his downfall - and the rest of the time trying to come to terms with what her life has become. Somebody's about to have a bad day... Nightmares, guilt, and questions of her own morality notwithstanding, Jolene, A.K.A. Daystar, is becoming the hero she swore she'd be, and StrikeForce, under Portia's leadership, is earning a measure of respectability from friend and foe alike. That is, until questions about Jolene's involvement in a certain super villain's death come to light, along with increasing pressure for her to answer questions about her shadowy past. All of it is background noise, a distraction from her hunt for Killjoy and his team. And when they threaten yet another person she cares for, Jolene becomes nothing less than Killjoy and company's worst nightmare.**

Fearless. Tireless. Unstoppable. Zealot. Death’s hunter and her New Guardians have been woefully incapable of ending the rise of the undead who now plague the world, their mindless, hungry ranks increasing faster than Eunomia can cut them down. Human governments grow weary of the immortals and the dangers they bring to the world. Desperation reigns, tempers flare, and the immortals find themselves on the brink of war from all sides. If only that was the worst of Eunomia’s problems. An evil still walks among them, one that continues to elude Eunomia and her hunters, and everything Eunomia, Molly, and the rest of the immortals have fought so hard to protect is crumbling along with E’s love life. Her trust shaken, her world falling apart, E finds herself pushing away everyone who has ever mattered to her in her quest to somehow save it all. Her single-minded devotion to her Queen and the world she loves threatens to destroy the life she was beginning to create for herself. And when an enemy is revealed, when the unthinkable happens, the world sees just how much of herself Eunomia is willing to sacrifice in order to save what she holds dear. Because sometimes, what the world needs is a zealot.

Molly Brooks has faced every foe thrown at her: power-hungry gods, hateful spirits, plotting demons, and everything in between. She has been betrayed. Lied to. Tortured. Possessed. And she has fought her way back from the brink, time and time again. It all leads up to this. Two Titans, formerly imprisoned by Molly's family, now walk the mortal realm. The vengeful ancient, Nether, finally freed from her prison, longs for revenge against those who decided her fate. And this time, Molly just might not be enough to fight them all, despite having everything to lose. This is the final installment in the Hidden urban fantasy series.

Thief. Villain. Hero. Killer. Alternately hated, loved, trusted, and feared by the city she’s sworn to protect (sometimes all on the same day), Jolene Faraday, A.K.A. Daystar, has finally crossed the line. In a fit of rage, her actions led to the death of the supervillain known as Render. That line, that paper-thin line between punishing and killing, is the one thing that allows ordinary humans to live in a world with super powered beings without being in a constant state of panic. And when one of their “heroes” loses control and crosses it, fear of supers reaches an all-time high. And it’s not just the citizens of her city who are afraid. The Tribunal is calling for Jolene’s arrest, which Portia, leader of StrikeForce, refuses to comply with. StrikeForce’s insistence on protecting Jolene only adds fuel to the fire. The world sits on the verge of chaos as Killjoy initiates the next phase of his plan, and StrikeForce continues to be one step behind the enemy. But Killjoy’s next move, the move that has the power to destroy everything Jolene and StrikeForce have tried to build, will change the team, the city, and Jolene, forever.
