“Stay out of my way,” the grump growls… while standing way too close. Kat came to Black Hollow for a fresh start, not a tall, feral man who acts like she’s a problem he can’t stop staring at. Before any of the weirdness, she’s just a competent vet tech with a motel hangover and a new job at Thorn Veterinary. Then Kael walks in with an injured German Shepherd and that “touch my dog wrong and I’ll bite” attitude, and Kat has to kneel in front of him to bandage the paw. You’d think he’d say thanks. He says her full name like it tastes good. Which is… rude. Later she follows her tiny black cat into the woods and finds Kael shirtless at an outdoor gym, all sweat and muscles and bad decisions, and he still tries to boss her around (she should hate him—she does hate him). But he grabs a flashlight and leads her onto “pack land” to help her search anyway, and yes, you’re coming with her. They step into the tree line together. Will he pin her to the wall or protect her first?

From New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Rachel Van Dyken comes The Dark Ones Saga, an epic tale of love, loss, and so much more.

To touch a Dark One is death. To talk to an immortal is suicide. Yet, I've been marked by both. A Vampire. And the King of the immortals. My life is no longer my own. And now I know the truth, my life was never mine to begin with. It was theirs. It's always been theirs.

"You want to be my Luna and bear my pups? We'll see if you have what it takes." I growled low facing a very naked and determined Alison. She seemed to have made up her mind and she looked as fierce in my bedroom as she looked on the battlefield. Could her wolf make mine surrender? We were about to find out.

Alison, a fierce warrior who’s survived deep loss, has set her sights on becoming Luna of her pack, a role she’s determined to claim beside the elusive Alpha Sean. Scarred by the mysterious death of his own mate, Sean has spent years avoiding entanglements, but Alison’s strength and loyalty have begun to crack his defenses. Under the Blood Moon’s primal call, they’re both pushed to confront their deepest instincts and desires. As Alison’s unyielding passion collides with Sean’s guarded resolve, their struggle becomes as intense as any battle, and only one will emerge victorious in this test of heart and dominance.

"I stood in the wake of my destruction; satisfied, pleased but forced with an internal longing. Her. I couldn’t separate my mind from the thought of her, even in war. And I knew I was doomed, cursed with a single weakness, surrounded with longing, not even content in my violence any longer. And the Dragon of Ruin, would suffer ruin itself, by the hands of a delicate creature, with no real power except the power of desire."

King Cerion, the fearsome Dragon of Ruin, thrives on chaos and destruction. Feared by his enemies and isolated by his power, he believes he is untouchable—until an innocent princess shatters his resolve. Princess Kira’s quiet strength and unyielding compassion awaken something Cerion thought long buried: the capacity for desire and, perhaps, redemption. But as their worlds collide, Kira must navigate the dangerous line between saving a monster and becoming consumed by him. Can love tame the Dragon of Ruin, or will his fiery wrath consume them both?

I take the paper my best friend Alexa shoves in my face. A picture of the Alpha of Love is printed there in color. He looks dashingly handsome, despite the things everyone knows he does. He’s desperate to find his mate, so he’s having a competition to see who will become the next Luna.

“If I do it, will you finally shut up?” I ask.

Alexa claps happily. “A million times, yes!”

Little did Aria know what she signed up for. In the Hunger Games of love, can she come out the victor?
