I'm the daughter of the Don, but my life as a mafia princess is far from a fairy-tale. Trapped in a pretty cage, my family clipped my wings so that I can fill the role all princesses are tasked: to marry a prince and secure an alliance. My mob boss father would give anything to gain an edge over the rest of the Supernatural Syndicates in New York—including me.

As an outcast witch without a coven, I exist on the fringes of supernatural society. You don't know me unless I want you to, because that's how people like me stay alive. But I messed up—and subsequently caught the attention of three incredibly dangerous supernatural men.

Wie sich herausstellt, bin ich wirklich Luzifers Tochter. Die Erbin der Hölle. Und – du hast es erraten – die zukünftige Königin der Verdammten. Aber was ist, wenn ich nicht regieren will? Der Kobold hält sich zwar versteckt und Josh existiert nicht mehr, aber ich bin trotzdem nicht sicher. Nicht im Entferntesten. Mein lieber Vater hat nicht nur sein Erbe und sein Mal an mich weitergegeben, sondern auch alle Probleme, die die Hölle so mit sich bringt. Seine Feinde sind jetzt auch meine.

Luzifers Tod ist eine Katastrophe, die die Welt betrifft. Der plötzliche Verlust seiner Magie wendet das Blatt zum ersten Mal seit über zwei Jahrzehnten. Die Menschen versammeln sich. Sie randalieren. Es fühlt sich an wie der Anfang eines Krieges. Als ob das nicht genug sei, ist Bree nicht mehr die Schwester, an die ich mich erinnere – und ihr Wunsch, in die Hölle zurückzukehren, verursacht mehr Feuer, als ich zu löschen vermag.

Wir alle kennen die Geschichte von den vier Reitern. Den Vorboten der Apokalypse. Der Zerstörung in Menschengestalt. Vier der attraktivsten, heißesten – Moment, nein – streicht das. Ihr versteht, worauf ich hinaus will. Mein Name ist Ruby Morningstar. Ich betreibe mit meiner besten Freundin ein Tattoo-Studio in Portland, habe einen Waschbären als Haustier, einen verrückten Ex, der mich verfolgt, und nicht zu vergessen diese eine Kleinigkeit: Ich bin ein Dämon. Ein Halbsuccubus, um genau zu sein. Die letzten dreiundzwanzig Jahre meines Lebens habe ich an diese Geschichte geglaubt.

Einst jagte ich Hexen. Jetzt lebe ich mit ihnen. Meine Vergangenheit als Kopfgeldjägerin der Übernatürlichen macht es nicht mir leicht und mich in den neuen Kreisen, in denen ich mich bewege, nicht unbedingt beliebt. Schockierend, ich weiß! Jemand will mich tot sehen. Zu schade, denn ich bin gut darin, am Leben zu bleiben. Das hält Ronan jedoch nicht davon ab, ein Alpha-Arschloch zu sein. Er will, dass ich in Nathalies Apartment und in Sicherheit bleibe, während er sich in Gefahr begibt und mir Brees Zukunft vorhält. Aber das wird nicht passieren.

Ein Jahrzehnt lang habe ich die Übernatürlichen gehasst, denen meine Welt gehört. Ich habe sie gejagt. Ich habe sie getötet. Und jetzt – dank der größten Wendung des Schicksals bin ich mit einem von ihnen verbunden. Welche Ironie! Eine Kopfgeldjägerin der Übernatürlichen zu sein, ist nicht gerade ein populärer Job. Aber nach den magischen Kriegen gibt es nicht mehr viele Dinge, die ein Mensch tun kann, um das Essen auf den Tisch zu bringen. Was mein rechter Haken nicht erledigt, schaffen zum Glück meine Waffen.

Everyone wants to be different until they are. Take it from a true Heinz 57, being special isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Especially when it sets off a series of events that will end the world. You know, the catastrophe I was sent to prevent in the first place.

Being a supernatural bounty hunter isn’t exactly a popular job. But after the magic wars, there aren’t many things a human can do that will put food on the table. Thankfully anything my right hook can’t handle, my guns can.

Forged by Fury is the fourth book in the Demons of New Chicago series. If you can’t get enough of books by Ella Summers, Annette Marie, Shannon Mayer, Deborah Wilde, K.F. Breene, Jeaniene Frost, Kelly St. Clare, and Linsey Hall, then dive right in to the dangerous depths of New Chicago. Beware of headstrong heroines with snark. These ladies don’t bark. They bite.

My dreams of retirement crashed and burned when the rogue shifter bit me. Not only have I changed into something neither world has ever seen before, but my mission just became even more impossible. To find the answers about what I am, I enlist the help of an infamous ex-poltergeist, a shifter freak, and my least favorite pigeon. What a team we make. Oh, and did I forget to mention that my mate’s bloodthirsty daughter is awake and hunting my ass now? Because that’s a thing, too. Why? I have no idea, but we have every intention of finding out.

My husband killed me. Instead of spending my immortal afterlife pissed off and angry, I moved on. I became someone. Sure, that someone was a demon with the highest track record of reform, a.k.a. punishment, in Hell. But who’s bragging? Everything was going fine...until the Risk Witches saw a terrible vision. Three men. Each scarred in their own way, born with powers that haven’t been seen in eons. Upper management sent the best to correct their path. Angels. Poltergeists. Nothing worked. These men were too stubborn. Too bad. Too untamed...so they sent me.

There’s only one rule in the world I come from. Keep our existence a secret. Period. The day my sister broke that rule one too many times, I knew there would be consequences. I expected us to be sent to one of those schools for “troubled” kids - and maybe Daizlei Academy was, in a way. But really, it was far more complicated than that. You see, I thought that world had forgotten me. Forgotten us. For years we were left alone, and one day...we weren’t. It was only when I got there that I remembered the second rule: Trust no one.

When the Underworld burned, I thought that was the end. Turns out it was only the beginning. Lucifer’s death was a shot heard around the world. The sudden loss of magic turned the tides for the first time in over two decades. The humans are rallying. Rioting. It feels like the stirrings of war.

I used to hunt witches. Now I live with one. To further complicate things, my past as a supernatural bounty hunter doesn’t exactly make me popular in these new circles I’m running in. Shocker, I know. Someone wants me dead. He wants me to stay in Nathalie’s apartment and be safe while he handles the threat, all while holding Bree’s future over my head. Not gonna happen. To say I’m f--ked is an understatement. But I’ve been in worse spots before. Lucifer may be gone, but the corruption of magic isn’t.

For a decade, I’ve hated the supernaturals who owned my world. I hunted them. I killed them. And now, in the most grand twist of fate - I am bonded to one of them. Oh, the irony. Being a supernatural bounty hunter isn’t exactly a popular job. But after the magic wars, there aren’t many things a human can do that will put food on the table. Thankfully, anything my right hook can’t handle, my guns can. Or so I thought.

Kel Carpenter and Meg Anne present book three in the Grimm Brotherhood series.

I found my brother's murderer, by becoming his next victim. The asshat killed me, too. But little does he know - I came back. Again. Now he's going down. But before I can destroy him, I need to resolve the little issue of me not dying. That's twice now I've cheated death. Something's not right. Graves doesn't think I'm a reaper, and the ghosts seem to agree with him. They say that I'm different. That I'm more. All I know is that things are getting real weird in Farrow's Square and dying is hungry work. Where's a truckload of Hostess cupcakes when a girl needs them?

I died for Hostess cupcakes. I know. Tragic, right? Even worse, after I came back, I still didn't get any cupcakes. What I did get, however, is a six-foot-something reaper with eyes like blue fire to guide me into the world of the supernatural. Which, as it turned out, wasn't quite like the fairy tales little girls are told growing up. Not only is magic real, more importantly, so are monsters. And apparently, I'm one of them.

She died protecting the man she loved. She died by his hands. And on that blood-soaked grave, vengeance grew. Quinn Darkova leads a listless existence in the dark realm. As honored guest and beloved by Mazzulah, she wants for nothing. But when Risk enters the realm to save her, the dark god can't resist a good bargain.
