This urban fantasy is full of magic and humor, perfect for readers who enjoy swoony romance and sparking chemistry.If twenty-two-year-old Madeline Bennet knows anything for certain, it’s that she’ll get her desired apprenticeship with the Royal Guild. After all, her family is well-connected, and she’s all but dating the grand duke’s nephew.But Madeline does not get her apprenticeship. Instead, she finds herself working with a trio of knight marshals, traipsing around the US, arresting all manner of magical miscreants. And if tracking trolls, running from murderous pixies, and stumbling into a dangerous web of criminal activity isn’t enough to keep her occupied, there’s also Gray, Jonathan, and Eric—the knights themselves.They’re strong. They’re skilled. They’re ridiculously handsome. And they don’t want her on their team.The four must play nice for six months, but can they even manage a week? And what will happen if the knights realize the royal advisor’s daughter isn’t just a prissy girl in heels? She’s harboring a dark secret—one that could prove to be more dangerous than even Madeline imagined.Author's Note: This spicy-sweet series is intended for adult audiences. Also, while the books have multiple potential love interests, at the end of the series, Madeline will end up with ONE man only. less

This contemporary fantasy is full of magic and humor, perfect for readers who enjoy swoony romance and sparking chemistry.Madeline Bennet has a quartet of knight marshals at her beck and call, and they’re all driving her mad.It’s only been a week since she was kidnapped, and Rafe’s already coddling her, Gray’s turned into a surly taskmaster, Eric’s trying to steal her cat, and Jonathan is entirely too charming for anyone’s good. Only one of them knows her secret—a secret she plans to take to the grave. Unfortunately, that plan falls through the moment a creature of shadows shows up on her doorstep.It’s cute. It’s fluffy. It’s evil.And Madeline is its master. More are coming, but there’s nothing the future Obsidian Queen can do to stop them, not while she’s posing as Jonathan’s wife at a luxurious haunted mansion in the heart of Colorado.Leaves are falling, pumpkins and scarecrows line doorsteps, and romance and death are in the air. Before she can find a way to keep the darkness at bay, Madeline must find a killer, drink cider, and not fall for the team’s most promiscuous knight. A task that’s proving to be harder than expected… less

This contemporary fantasy is full of magic and humor, perfect for readers who enjoy swoony romance and sparking chemistry.Twenty-two-year-old Madeline Bennet is certain of three things: she’s sick and tired of being kidnapped, her love life is a royal mess, and something is wrong with her magic.Madeline is fabled to be the only woman alive who can open the thresholds to Aparia, but there’s a tiny problem—she can’t see the magic to unlock them, and time is running out. The shadow creatures are creeping out of hiding once more, the Entitled are furious she slipped through their fingers, and the Royal Guild has discovered her existence.At least her knights have her back…mostly. Eric keeps disappearing, Gray is half in love with the tracker who followed them home from Vegas, the tracker is half in love with Jonathan, and Rafe…Well, no one ever knows what the Obsidian Knight is thinking.It’s clear Madeline must shove thoughts of romance aside and focus on learning more about her Obsidian magic, but the answers she’s seeking seem to lead to more questions.The most chilling of all: did she link her magic with the wrong knight? less

Life is looking pretty good for Madeline Bennet. She can finally see the magic to unlock the thresholds to Aparia, and her love life is more stable than it’s ever been.Sure, she and her favorite Griffon don’t get a lot of quality time together. Also true, several shadow dragons are determined to destroy the human world. On top of that, there’s a tiny glitch in the link that even Teagan didn’t expect when he worked his Vulture magic on her and Rafe... moreLife is looking pretty good for Madeline Bennet.
