You thought there was only one Death? Aww, that's sweet... Just like all little girls, I hoped I was special and that one day my powers would be revealed. My parents would be bewildered, my friends would equally worship and envy me, and my bullies would run away in terror! Nothing happened when I turned 10. I didn’t grow wings at 12, still wasn’t able to make things move with my mind at 14, and at 16 I was already too old to believe in such nonsense. Well, what do you think happened the day I turned 18? I got the confirmation that I was only human. In the mail! Oh, and also an invitation to apply to the Grim Reaper Academy. Because, apparently, humans can be Grim Reapers, too. Fast forward to day one, semester one, year one. There’s a test! No one told me I’d have to take a test to enter! But there are only 22 Grim Reapers in the world, the competition is tough, so I guess it makes sense? If I pass, then I will be sorted according to what kind of Death I’ll make if I survive the rigors of the Academy. Merciful Death? Neutral Death? Oh, please God, don’t let me be sorted into the Violent Death Cabal! All the A-holes are there! And I don’t think I can compete with Holier-Than-Thou Sariel (cause he’s an archangel, you see), Jerkface-No-1 Pazuzu AKA Paz (cause all demons are major morons), Mr. Bow-To-Me GC Apis (ugh, false gods are the worst), and Francis (no idea what his deal is, he doesn’t talk much). But this is my chance, dammit! This is what I’ve been waiting for all my life! Okay, so I’m not a princess, or a mermaid, or Sailor Moon. But I can be a Grim Reaper one day. I’ll take it! ***Author's Note: This is book 1 in the Grim Reaper Academy series, intended for mature audiences.

I’m not who I used to be. Valentine Morningstar, my own father, tried to ruin my life, and instead he made me stronger. But my own power will consume me if I don’t learn how to control it, how to channel it to help everyone, not just myself. I have to learn how to be this new person I’ve become. GC – my handsome false god, Pazuzu – my dark demon, Sariel – my fallen archangel, and Francis – my… I know what he is now, but it hurts to say it. They keep me grounded. They keep me sane, and they keep me good. Without them, I’m afraid I might just turn into a villain. ***Author's Note: This is book 4 in the Grim Reaper Academy series, intended for mature audiences. Please be advised that it may contain situations that are triggering to some, profanity (way more than in my previous books!), and a lot of steam.

Grim Reaper Academy is a prison, and my father is the jailor. Since he’s been appointed Headmaster, he’s been changing all the rules. There’s a curfew now, students are not allowed to gather in groups, and all connections with the outside have been cut. And don’t think that because I’m his daughter, the rules don’t apply to me. On the contrary, he’s even more of a tyrant. He’s forbidden me from seeing my lovers, GC and Paz. He says he’ll find me a match worthy of my name. Unfortunately for him, I am my father’s daughter. I do not break. I don’t even bend. And just to piss him off, I won’t only keep dating GC and Paz, but I might even adopt Sariel and Francis, too. ***Author's Note: This is book 3 in the Grim Reaper Academy series, intended for mature audiences.

Two hotter-than-hell boyfriends to juggle, one merciless archangel who wants me dead, and then there’s Francis. I still don’t know what his deal is, and after that fateful night in the caves beneath the Academy, I’m not sure I want to know. Everything around me is changing, but I’m the same. I’m still the only human. No powers, no special skills to speak of. Just a prophecy that says a human will one day retire the most powerful Grim Reaper alive, but I doubt I’m the savior the supernatural world has been waiting for. If I am, the implications are too horrible. Because this powerful being they’re afraid of… is my real father. ***Author's Note: This is book 2 in the Grim Reaper Academy series, intended for mature audiences.

My name is Yolanda. I look like I’m in my twenties, but I’m not. I look human, but don’t let that fool you. I’m unlike any other supernatural out there. I can’t fly, I can’t move objects with my mind, and I can’t read minds. What I can do is dream. I am a dream jumper. I can travel to parallel dimensions and see worlds most don’t even know exist. I’m also a hero. I’ve saved this dimension from destruction once, and now I have to do it again. Grim Reaper Academy is my destiny. When I get the letter in my mailbox, I know it’s time for me to continue the legacy of my cousin, Mila Morningstar. She left some things unsolved. I’m not worried. I’ve had two centuries to prepare. It should be easy enough to save the world again. Now, if only the two VDC A-holes – an incubus and a sphinx – would stay out of my way, and the hot PE professor – Unseelie, descendant of Gilgamesh himself, they say – wouldn’t trip me at every step. It’s like they don’t want me to kill the monster hiding under the Academy.

Just one test to pass, and she’ll finally become a Keeper of the Spades, and a proper member of her coven. Born a witch, sworn to protect the Mysteries of the Tarot, Val will not fail and will not disappoint her family. But something goes awfully wrong. When she gets lost in the intricate multi-dimensions of the Test, she loses control and gets thrown from one time-space to another. And that’s how she meets them. She doesn’t know who they are, but what she knows for sure is they are not just men. Ghosts? Angels, or demons? Gods? Fate is playing tricks on her… She only wants to pass the Test and serve her coven, not figure out why she was meant to meet nine strangers who seem just as confused as she is.

The legends of my clan say that an Alpha without a mate will wither in time, and weakness will infect him until a stronger wolf will challenge and dethrone him. I cannot allow that to happen.

I soon realize my short exile in the human world is not going to be made easy by the bright-eyed, curvy beauty who denies me everything I crave.

I don’t know who I am, nor why I’ve been imprisoned. They want me to confess, but I can’t remember doing the atrocities they’re accusing me of, so I keep silent instead. They hate my silence.

Candace West needs to escape. For two years, she’s suffered at the hands of her abusive husband, and she can’t take it anymore. When he refuses to give her the divorce and threatens her life, she runs to the only place where she knows she’ll be protected – the nearest institute for orc brides. Once she offers herself as tribute, she is safe, and a hired attorney takes care of the divorce. Now, all she has to do is keep her word, learn about the orcs’ culture, and follow the one who chooses her as his mate. Vorgak the Cruel has been trying to find the right mate for months.

When the orcs invaded the human dimension, no one could stop them. War raged for years, and now the monstrous beasts have agreed to peace on two conditions: one, the human scientists must rebuild the machine that brought them to this world; and two, they must be provided with fertile brides to bear them orc babies. Silvie has always believed in the saying, “be the change you want to see in the world”. That’s why she volunteers to become a tribute and goes to one of the first institutes for orc brides to open in North America. Then the institute is attacked, and an orc horde saves the young women from a terrible fate. The orc captain must be rewarded, and Silvie ends up being his prize. She’s always known she would be mated to an orc. She just thought she’d have more time… Kelraz the Vicious is a monster on the battlefield.

I knew attempting to cook something from scratch was a bad idea. All I wanted was to impress my friends with some homemade deviled eggs. Now there’s a seven-foot-tall creature of Hell in my kitchen who’s saying I’m a powerful witch and that I summoned him. He’s more than happy to… ahem… devil my eggs, if that’s my wish and command. No. Not a witch, and I definitely don’t want a horned and hooved demon, or his barbed tail anywhere near my eggs. Naberius is sin itself, and if I don’t banish him quick, I’m afraid he might corrupt me. One problem, though. I have no idea how I summoned him in the first place. It turns out my grandma’s recipe book is actually filled with spells, and since no one told me I’m a witch, I can’t read them. Time to find out what really happened to the women in my family and why they kept me in the dark. It might take a trip to Hell and a contract signed with Naberius, but I’ll get to the bottom of it. I know what you’re thinking… Is it smart to sign a contract with a demon? No, it’s not. But hear me out…

I’ve always known I’m a terrible cook. But summoning a demon while attempting to make a simple chicken soup? That’s just next level. Asmodeus, King of Hell, ruler over too many demon armies to try counting them, is in the middle of my destroyed kitchen, awaiting an explanation. He says I’m a powerful witch, but that’s just ridiculous. He says he’s bound to me, and he’ll fulfill any wish I have. What do I say? Despite his horns, hooves, and tail, he’s stupidly handsome. And I need to find a way to banish him before he gets under my skin.

Faith Bell is in need of a miracle. A Christmas miracle. And not for herself, either, but for the children at the orphanage where she works. She’s an orphan herself, she’s penniless, and after a life of being in service of others, at twenty-five, she doesn’t have much going on. Not that she’d have it any other way, but the orphanage is going under. Without funding, and with less and less people willing to work for smiles and hugs, the orphanage will surely close. When humans turn their backs on their own orphans, Faith sees only one way out. She becomes an orc tribute. Grimor the Joyless once had a different name. Back in the orc world, he inspired terror and awe. Now, in the world of humans, after so many years of meaningless peace, he can’t find his place. He’s lost his purpose. There is no word in his language to describe how he feels. There is a word in the humans’ language, but he’s forbidden his orcs from ever speaking it. His mage says he needs a bride. He’ll take one, if that means his horde will shut up about it and leave him be. Author’s Note: This is a full, standalone novel with a happily-ever-after. The books in the Orc Mates series can be read in any order.
