I thought my life was full with two beautiful, amazing women to love. Adding Meredith to our family has grown things in ways I could never have expected. But Meredith’s needs are not the same as Lexie’s and Olivia’s, and when I’m given a chance to advance my career by moving to a prominent venture capital firm led by one of the city’s most interesting investors, I know I need to accept. Yet doing so brings me into a world I may not be ready for, and it takes me into the orbit of a young woman who’s like no one I’ve ever met.

I know what I am. But what am I to become? I’ve left the life of an adventurer behind. I’m now the captain of a powerful mercenary company, in pursuit of much bigger prizes. But the city of Avanasia is not like the wilderness I once wandered. Its politics are as opaque as the river that flows through it. My enemies are many and hidden, and the identity of my friends is unclear. The Thieves Guild wants things from me, as do the fanatical tribes of the desert, with their allegiances to gods I little understand. And that matters. Because the gods of this world lie behind my challenges.

A decade of living alone and broken-hearted has transitioned into a relationship with two beautiful, complex women, with rewards I could never have anticipated. After nearly a year together, Lexie, Olivia, and I are deeply in love and starting to plan our future.

For centuries, the Academy of the Draconic Order in the ancient city of Avilus has sent its graduates into the world to seek dragons suffering from a magical curse, one that hobbled their intellect and reduced them to dumb beasts. Only those who find and cure a dragon earn the right to be called Draconic Knights.

From a childhood as an abandoned orphan to life as one of the city’s most skilled burglars, master thief Rafiq has long lived high off the wealth of Avanasia–its trade, its jewels, and its women. The vaults of Avanasia's merchants are as open to him as the arms of its most beautiful courtesans. For in Avanasia, there is but one paramount truth: There are those who have, and those who take. And Rafiq is one of the latter.

A cowboy is just a man with guts and a horse. Connor Mills is only trying to earn some summer money for school by working the Green River Drift cattle drive in Wyoming. The Fates have something else in mind for him. Thrust into a dark realm both familiar and eerily twisted, Connor finds himself at the center of a struggle between goblin tycoons, corrupt wolf-kin lawmen, and a town full of people who’ve had all the hope wrung out of them.

For in Avanasia, there is but one paramount truth: There are those who have, and those who take. And Rafiq is one of the latter. But when he steals an ancient heirloom blade from a powerful merchant, he sets in motion a series of events that will shift the delicate balance of power in the city. And he’ll need to assemble a unique and talented crew of girls to survive.

Master thief Rafiq has assembled his crew of beautiful thieves—goblin-girl Qadira, elven archer Aliya, human Sahar, dabaji Iesha, and ex-courtesan Zahra—and set his sights on bigger and richer targets. But all is not well in the city. For in Avanasia, the priests of the Temple of Ashes keep a close watch on the faith of its citizens. No worship except that of the Eight Dead Gods is permitted. To believe anything else is heresy, punishable by death.

With the Thunderdome behind them, Colton Winchester and his girlfriends can focus on what really matters: Throwing the most trailer-park of all trailer park weddings. Starting with a not-at-all-tasteless bachelorette party. Yet no sooner have the girls gotten things underway than the park's oil drilling crew breaks into a mysterious dungeon, one that may have roots in the Fae Wilds' ancient past.

After a decade as a single dad, I thought I had life figured out. I put my broken heart on the shelf to raise my daughter Maddie, and watching her grow into a confident, successful woman has been reward enough. Still, life has a way of throwing curves at you—the kind of curves that will get any guy’s attention. When Maddie’s best friends Lexie and Olivia find themselves homeless after losing their apartment, there’s no question I’m going to offer them refuge. They were there for Maddie during our darkest hours, and it’s my turn to be there for them now.

Connor Mills’s ranch and family are thriving, but becoming the mayor of Willow Bend has brought fresh challenges to his life. As much as he’s achieved since coming to Faerie, greater mysteries remain. A harsh winter is putting a heavy strain on forage for the kaltaur, and tensions on the range are reaching the boiling point. When a clash between competing ranches leaves two men dead, Connor has to act quickly to stop an open range war.

Jimmy has reached a pinnacle of power that few sorcerers achieve. With a coven of powerful witches and immortals, there are few in Hell or Heaven who dare oppose him. But all is not well. Something is lacking in Jimmy’s life – something he’s never truly known. Family.

Jimmy’s spirit-daughter has awakened, and Heaven and Hell are shaken to their foundations. Having absorbed the deadly power of the fallen angel Tamiel, Else is a threat to angels and demons alike. To protect her, Jimmy must keep her existence a secret until she and his coven are strong enough to defend themselves.

Kevin and his adorable band of goblin girls have decided to leave their devastated planet for a safer long-term home. Rexy the buxom hyper-shuttle is prepared to take them to a new world–but it’s not as simple as all that. Rexy is outfitted as a cargo shuttle, and she doesn’t have what she needs to carry the crew on a trip through deep space. There are upgrades and repairs to complete first, and Kevin doesn’t have all the parts he needs. There’s a lot of food to pack that isn’t ready yet.

When I awoke in this world, I had nothing but a big sword and the tattered clothes on my back. Now I’m the god of war and ruler of the richest city on the planet. But I’ve reached heights where the edge of my wits matters far more than the edge of my blade. From dissident merchants in the Jaws undermining the vital work the city needs, to xenophobic elements among the aquatic ahlbara, the plots against me multiply by the day. Even worse, the black wizard is out there, and he’s plotting for godhood of his own. I can’t let that happen, and I won’t. It’s time to end him once and for all.
