ANTONELLO BROTHERS
"At the Mercy of Her Pleasure" - Loose Id Once he tastes her passion, will he be at the mercy of her pleasure?
Senth must suppress his feral, half-human side to work beside a Better, an enhanced woman whose addictive pheromones could sever all his hard-won self control. He must resist her, because if what they say about Betters is true, just one taste of her passion, and he'll be... at the mercy of her pleasure.
"For Women Only" - Loose Id Will she free his heart before his betrayal breaks hers?
To protect the remnants of his family, Khyff must overcome his hatred of the Kin long enough to seduce and betray their ambassador -- the one person among them with the power and will to mend his broken heart.
TALES OF THE CHOSEN
“Wulf, Tales of the Chosen” - Liquid Silver Books Lust. Power. Forgiveness. Can a romance live forever?
To survive, superstar Wulf Gabriel must depend on the one man he swore would never trust again - the most powerful and feared man in the empire - the Harbinger. Saving Wulf is simple; gaining his trust will take reaching into the Harbinger's own dark past and facing a truth he's avoided since the night Wulf's father's died ... because of him...
“Alitus, Tales of the Chosen” - Liquid Silver Books Passion. Addiction. Loyalty. Will true love bare its heart forever?
Alitus Vivaldi is a Better, an enhanced human whose combined talents in bed and politics take him from the Conqueror's favorite pleasure slave to her personal assistant. To serve her, he will forsake his identity and pride, and surrender himself to his darkest fears. But will he save the Tarthian Empire and its Conqueror, or rock them both to their crumbling core?
“Jawk, Tales of the Chosen” - Liquid Silver Books Pleasure. Trust. Possession. Is a betrayal of the heart forever?
Jawk Brighton works at Batchelors, a hip restaurant/club in the Top Tier district of Tarth City, where he meets the immortal Luc Saint-Cyr. When Luc offers Jawk a deal too good to pass up, one night showing him and his Chosen, Wulf Gabriel, a good time in exchange for far more than his usual pay, Jawk grabs it. All three have secret agendas. The question is, will Jawk's tear apart the alliance of the immortal and his Chosen -- forever?
SURRENDER
"Surrender Love" - Loose Id Not rebound, payback, loneliness, or great sex, and far beyond love. This is surrender.
In the beds of countless lovers, the immortal Luc Saint-Cyr has been mastered as well as master, commanded as well as commander. When his mortal lover leaves him, the distraught Luc withdraws and devotes himself to work. His entertainment company throws a ceremony for their most successful rock group, and Luc meets drummer Izzorah "Rah" Ceeow, one of the feline Kin race. Rah's dark hair and velvety, golden furskin captivate Luc. Pert cat's ears and a quick smile lighten his mood, and one look into Rah's emerald eyes, deep and tranquil as a forest pool, and troubles cease.
He suspects the mid-twenties male is a virgin, and Luc, fascinated by Rah's quiet serenity and lack of guile, longs for a deeper, closer relationship. Savoring Rah's surrender will be as delicious as taking him. Luc will force nothing. Rah will give himself to Luc when he is ready to surrender his innocence, to capitulate every part of himself to Luc's command. Rah will open himself and let himself be taken. Luc's anticipation and desire are palpable; as real as his hunger for faithful, unconditional love. But to gain Rah, how much of himself is Luc willing to surrender?
