My name is Nick Gautier, and I was born to end the world. Or so I thought. For years, I believed my destiny was beyond my control. But the Fates love to play with folks, and I seem to be their favorite punchline. Just when my crew and I thought we were done with the apocalypse, the Fates dragged back for another round. Now, we have to stop the powers-that-be and my future son or the ones I love and cherish will become memories.

Theo Coatl was supposed to be just a job. On paper, my twin and I are recent grads moving into the eccentric artist's mansion for a once-in-a-lifetime internship opportunity. In reality, Dre and I are spies for our clan—a pair of supes known as Shock and Awe who could melt our enemy's brain as easily as we could extract the intel we were after. Whatever works. Our mark isn't the only one keeping secrets, and Theo's proximity is… doing things to me. This man could fulfill every dark desire I've buried beneath the surface, things even my twin doesn't know I crave.

I needed to get the hell out of Big City. The only reason I'm living in this American wasteland is because my mother insisted I reconcile with my estranged father. That the idea came to her while drunk on French bubbly should have been my sign to stay right where I belonged. Anywhere but here. Certainly somewhere more fabulous. When an international job opportunity arises, I jump on board. It's just a bonus that I'll be traveling with the epitome of tall, dark, and handsome. Make that muscular, morally gray, and hopefully, my next conquest.

It's time for me to start pulling my weight in the Suarez clan—to prove I'm worth more than the plays I make on the field or the dirt I dig up on rival families. I want to make Wolfy proud. And to not get unalived by Simon. So I volunteered what I had to offer, knowing my infamous genes could be used for uniting two powerful clans in marriage. After all, I'm the only not gay one in my family, so that alone should entice the super-babes looking to get busy with baby-making. I mean, as long as they don't ask me to do math or anything.

Gabriel, Duke of Bencalor, allows himself to be kidnapped to save his cousin, the Prince of Caleva. He pays a price—a mutilation that damages his brilliant career as a Flamenco guitarist—yet he would not hesitate to do it again. Quinn Pierson is hired to track down Gabriel’s abductors. As she follows the trail, she and the sexy duke spend more and more time together until a spark ignites between them. Quinn fights her feelings every inch of the way because she knows there can be no future between a royal duke and an American commoner with an ugly past.

Nur die kläglichen Reste ihres Lebens nimmt die 24 jährige Faith im Rucksack mit, als sie überstürzt vor ihrem Ex in die USA flieht.

Sobald die Nomads samt ihrem Präsidenten Tyr eintreffen, erhebt er Anspruch auf sie und stellt ihre Welt auf den Kopf.

Jesse Sheridans nächster Auftrag als U.S. Marshal klingt wie ein ganz normaler Montagvormittag: Bewache und beschütze den Kronzeugen Alfonso Morgan und dessen Tochter Faye. Allerdings hat ihn niemand gewarnt, wie schwierig Faye ist, die ihm schon bei der ersten Begegnung fast in die Kronjuwelen tritt. Die sture und ziemlich desillusionierte junge Frau will vieles sein, aber kein stilles Mäuschen im Zeugenschutz. Obwohl sie die Gefahren und vor allem den Preis dieses Lebens kennt, ist sie nicht bereit, ihn weiterhin zu bezahlen.
