Summary: The Horsemen of the Apocalypse have been summoned once more, but before Conquest can bring humanity to its knees, his love for a broken Angel may bring Conquest to his. As the first Horseman, Conquest has one task: bring complete chaos to the Earthly Dimension and pave the way for his brethren—War, Famine, and Death. It’s been a long time since the rider of the white horse has been on Earth, and he looks forward to bringing back the balance, one murder at a time. He has no love for the Heavens, and he has no use for a baby Angel that is weaker even than a mortal, until a sinister plan takes shape in his mind. For as long as Raziel can remember, all of Heaven has shunned him—after all, he’s an Angel without access to his Power. When he’s given a task well beyond his abilities, he finds himself thrown into the path of a Horseman who seems determined to make him question everything he’s ever known. He should be terrified and nothing more, but instead … he feels something for which he doesn’t even have a name. Soon, Conquest and Raziel find themselves standing between Heaven and Hell, the lines between good and evil starting to blur, and loyalties being stretched and twisted. Conquest begins to realize that Raziel may hold the key to the future of Earth, and if Conquest doesn’t keep his Angel close, more than just his heart might be at stake. After millennia of war, will an Angel cast aside by Heaven be the first Horseman’s undoing? Content warnings: Religious themes, extreme violence, gore, and others.

Summary: It all began with the kiss of Death. Abaddon, the Destroyer, right hand of Lucifer, has returned from the dead with one thing on his mind: revenge on the Horseman who kept him from taking back what is his. But spending time alone with Death has awakened something between them, resulting in an experience that he enjoys more than revenge. The natural conclusion is to keep doing it, of course. He never planned on his heart getting involved with a Horseman he can’t even touch. Death is the fourth Horseman of the Apocalypse, arriving only when the end is near. The Apocalypse he and his brothers were summoned for this time is over, lost when they lost one of their own, but the stakes are higher now than ever before. It isn’t just Earth that’s at risk; the fate of existence now hangs in the balance, with a power-hungry God ready to unleash a new world order. Death cannot touch another and has resigned himself to spending his existence alone, until a kiss changes everything for him. When Abaddon returns, and they pick up right where they left off, Death doesn’t fight the attraction that spirals out of control faster than they can keep up with it. Death cannot feel Abaddon’s skin against his own, but Abaddon breaks so beautifully under him anyway, taking everything that he can give and asking for more. Abaddon had never imagined that he would love anyone or fall so hard, so fast. Death had never imagined that he would find someone to walk beside him, someone to call his own. Time is running out for them, and if they don’t find a way to push back against the powers vying for them, all will be lost. The last Apocalypse is coming, and no one is safe. Death is the fourth and final book in the Four Horsemen series. This book is not a standalone and must be read in order. You have been warned. Content warnings: religious themes, extreme violence, gore, blood play, masochism, and others listed inside. Arachnophobia warning: There is also a dog-sized pet spider named Paul who just wants to be loved. Death is a paranormal MM romance featuring morally questionable characters, unrequited hate, Angels, Demons, Horsemen of the Apocalypse, snark and plenty of banter.

Summary: DOA becomes BRB when this client goes MIA… When I agreed to accompany my selkie boyfriend on a private boat trip, I didn’t realize the invitation included a swim. In the Pacific. In November. Naked. And I certainly didn’t expect to have our swim derailed the instant I got in the water—holy crap, that’s c-c-cold—by a literal boatload of selkie clan leaders. Climbing out of the water in front of them—did I mention naked? Yeah, way to make a brilliant first impression. Then things get worse: I get served. Not in the metaphorical sense, either. Nope, I’m being sued. By Death. Well, not Death precisely, but an Ankou—a Celtic psychopomp who escorts the departed to their final destinations. This guy is miffed that his workload has increased exponentially, which he blames on my actions in Sheol on an earlier case. I’m not about to take the heat when eons of shady demon shenanigans finally come home to roost, but here at Quest Investigations, we aid any and all supernatural folk in need—especially if they’ll drop their specious lawsuits against the agency’s lone human. When the Ankou skips out on us, though, all hell breaks loose. Because without anyone to lead them on, the dearly departed become nearly departed and stick around to party hearty. Now it’s not just the selkie leaders complicating my love life—it’s the ex-living as well. And when one of the ex-living decides not to remain ex? Things get really complicated, not to mention deadly. Dammit. Death on Denial is the fourth in the Quest Investigations M/M mystery series, a spinoff of E.J. Russell’s Mythmatched paranormal rom-com story world. It contains no on-page sex or violence, and although there is a romantic subplot, it is not a romance. The series is best read in order.

Summary: Can a chance meeting rekindle their incendiary attraction? While cutting through the Interstices—the post-creation gap between realms—Smith, half-demon tech specialist for Enchanted Occasions Event Planning, spies the person he yearns for daily but dreads ever seeing again: the ifrit, Hashim of the Windrider clan. On their one literally smoldering night together, Smith, stupidly besotted, revealed his true name—a demon’s greatest vulnerability. When Hashim didn’t return the favor, then split the next morning with no word? Message received, loud and clear: Thanks but no thanks. Although Hashim had burned to return Smith’s trust, it was impossible. The wizard who conjured him holds his true name in secret, and unless Hashim discovers it, he’ll never be free. When their attraction sparks once more, the two unite to search for Hashim’s hidden name—which would be a hell of a lot easier if they didn’t have to contend with a convention full of food-crazed vampires on the one day out of the century they can consume something other than blood. But if they fail, Hashim will be doomed to eternal slavery, and their reignited love will collapse in the ashes. Luckily Smith is the guy who gets the job done—and Hashim is never afraid to heat things up.
