A complete romantic YA fantasy series.
An otherworldly messenger. A deadly competition. A destiny she never saw coming.

Lana always thought she was fairly unremarkable—just a mediocre illuminator witch and decent enough student. But when a scavenger hunt around Dublin pulls her into the treacherous realm of Faerie, she learns the truth: she’s anything but ordinary.

A descendant of a powerful fae bloodline, Lana is thrust into the Successional, a ruthless battle or magic, wits, and strength.

The prize? The key to her family’s powerful legacy.

The catch? Her rivals are cunning and far more deadly than she could have imagined.

Guided by a brooding fae warrior, Lana must navigate a world of deceit, alliances, and dark wonder. But as the Successional unfolds, she realizes there is something more than survival at stake. More than even the love she craves. The fate of Faerie teeters on a dagger’s edge.

Can Lana harness her magic and courage in time to win it all? Or will she lose everything she’s ever dreamed of?

Perfect for fans of dark fae worlds, bodyguard romance, and shocking twists, this is a journey you’ll never forget.

Featured Fantasy: Moon Dance Books 1 - 14 by J.R. Rain

Mother, wife, private investigator—vampire!

I’m Samantha Moon. Mom. Wife. Vampire.

I was a federal agent until an attack robbed me of my life.

Now I’m an undead private investigator and I work the night shift.

My newest client is Kingsley Fulcrum, a defense attorney who was shot five times and, weirdly, walked away from it.

Kingsley hired me to find the perp and, ahem, Kingsley is extremely handsome, charming and funny.

Not that I notice—I’m a not-so-happily married woman, after all.

Yeah, things with my husband haven’t exactly been hunky dory ever since I grew fangs. In fact, I think my cold skin is driving my husband to warmer pastures…

To top everything off, someone just sent me the medallion my attacker was wearing the night he turned me.

I think the reason is pretty clear: I’ve attracted a vampire hunter and he’s coming for me next.

If so, he’s in for a surprise; I’m a lot tougher than I look.

Bring it on.

If you like Harry Dresden, Anita Blake, Mercy Thompson, Stephanie Plum or Kinsey Millhone, be prepared to love Samantha Moon, vampire private eye!

Nick Midnight, homicide detective, just got transferred to New York City.

The government owns him. Then again, humans own all vampires these days. Cops are “Midnights.” Scientists “Galileos.” Soldiers “Centurions.”

Things will be different in New York. No complications. No kids needing his help. None of that human-vampire-psychic crap that turned him evil for nearly a century. He’d keep his head down, do his job for the NYPD, and hunt down murderers.

But Nick’s first big case involves an illegal species that could get him killed. And another kid who needs his help. Because of course.

Then Wynter James shows up. A gorgeous, sexy, seer-human hybrid, Wynter treats Nick like she already knows him, like they’ve known one another for years. Nick wants her, bad, but he’d be a fool to go there, and not only because she’s a potential suspect in his case. Just dating her would break the law and could get them both killed.

She’s Nick’s worst nightmare. She’s everything he swore he’d never do again.

Meanwhile, the case keeps going sideways⏤more dead hybrid kids, graffiti that tells the future, a conspiracy involving the richest humans in New York. If Nick can’t find some way through he’ll end up back on the run, in that dark place he thought he’d finally left behind.
