When Maggie Maddock returns to her hometown of Dark Root, Oregon, she is unprepared for what awaits her: a mother with a mysterious illness, a renewed sibling rivalry, and a town that’s lost its magic. Now Maggie and her sisters must work together to save the town and the people they love, before it’s too late.

Would the man who has everything ever want to change?

Mason’s job is simple: company asset protection and acquisition, no questions asked. He’s good at what he does, and it’s given him the best looks money can buy, the spacious apartment that only comes with knowing the right people, and top shelf bionics from Apsel Federate. He’s got everything in he could possibly want – or he thought he did until a gate between worlds opens, spilling a master of coercion into Seattle.

When he tangles with off-grid rock star Sadie Freeman and the lost girl Laia, Mason sees a world bought by corporate interest turn against him.

Hunted and fresh out of friends, he learns that living in the soft line between incentive and crime was always the easy path. Making the right choices could save the world – and his soul. It’ll only cost him everything. Can Mason learn what it means to be truly human?

From USA Today bestselling author Megg Jensen, combining the best elements of science fiction and fantasy

Two hundred years ago, an interplanetary expedition crashed on a deserted planet. Their ship was destroyed. Their technology lost.

They built a new society while they waited for rescue. It never came.

Instead they caught the attention of the dragzhi, an aggressive alien species, and found themselves in the midst of a war they were doomed to lose.

Torsten Vikker, a soldier who’d rather read than fight, is on a mission to recover an artifact rumored to have the power to defeat the dragzhi. Rell, a woman raised in a cult, will stop at nothing to keep him away from what she holds sacred.

Yet only together can they hope to save humanity from utter annihilation.

Half-human. Half-demon. All attitude.

Luther Cross here. Dangerously handsome, effortlessly stylish half-demon, at your service. As I have inherited certain…abilities with my odd genetics, I’ve put them to use as Chicago’s foremost paranormal investigator.

My current case? Well, I have to admit, it feels a little personal. I’m helping a mysterious girl who’s turned up on my doorstep, pregnant through mystic means. I can’t help but think of my own mother…and if I don’t help her, she’ll face the same fate.

Turns out, someone is trying to create an army of half-demons. While it might be a pleasant change to hang out with my own kind, I know most half-demons don’t have my sense of morality. If I don’t stop this evil plan, the armistice between Heaven and Hell will be broken and all of the Earth will pay… It will be the beginning of the end.
