Alliance in Blood by
Ariel
Tachna
Can a desperate wizard and a bitter, disillusioned vampire find a way to
build the partnership that could save their world?
In a world rocked by magical war, vampires are seen by many as less than
human, as the stereotypical creatures of the night who prey on others.
But as the war intensifies, the wizards know they need an advantage to
turn the tide in their favor: the strength and edge the vampires can
give them in the battle against the dark wizards who seek to destroy
life as they know it.
In a dangerous move and show of good will, the wizards ask the leader of
the vampires to meet with them, so that they might plead their cause.
One desperate man, Alain Magnier, and one bitter, disillusioned vampire,
Orlando St. Clair, meet in Paris, and the fate of the world hangs in the
balance of their decision: Will the vampires join the cause and form a
partnership with the wizards to win the war?
The first of a four part series.

The Archer by
Abigail Roux
Rocked to the core by
traitors and spies, the Organization made an unprecedented move in
bringing together six highly trained men to track down one rogue wolf:
The Archer.
There are three field
agents: one at the top of his game, one hoping to retire, and another
walking the line; a cold-blooded assassin who can use any weapon known
to man; a demolitions expert who can’t resist the allure of fire; and a
computer hacker with more tricks in his mouse than Houdini. This team is
made up of the best of the best, and if it can’t succeed in this
impossible mission, no one can. But no plan survives first contact with
the enemy – especially when you can’t even find out who he is!
Despite
what a cluster the assignment is from the start, the six men try to get
their act together to track down the rogue operative, and in the process
they discover there’s more to life than the next assignment. Now it’s up
to them to survive by working together and determining who the real
traitor is: an unknown friend, a close-by enemy, or the Organization
itself.

Diplomacy
by Zahra Owens
Jack
Christensen has everything he ever wanted. He's a rising star in US
Diplomacy, the youngest man to have been appointed as an Ambassador of
the United States. A career diplomat who's just been sent to a
politically interesting Embassy in Europe, he has the perfect wife,
speaks five languages and has all the right credentials, yet there's
something missing and he doesn't quite know what.
Then Lucas Carlton walks into an Embassy reception and introduces
himself and his American fiancée. From the first handshake, the young
Englishman makes an impression on Jack that leaves him confused and
uncharacteristically insecure. Lucas' position as the British liaison to
the American Embassy means they are forced to work together closely and
they have a hard time denying the attraction between them, despite their
current relationships.
When their women decide to go on a weekend trip together, Jack and Lucas
start a passionate relationship, which continues long after their
partners return. Diplomatic circles are notoriously conservative though,
and they each know that the right woman by their side makes a very
significant contribution to their success. Will they be able to make the
right choices in their professional and personal lives? Or will they
need to sacrifice one for the other?
