Der Polizist Max Shannon verfügt über eine besondere Gabe: Er ist den geistigen Manipulationsversuchen der Medialen gegenüber resistent. Umso mehr überrascht es ihn, als er von der mächtigen Medialen Nikita Duncan persönlich auf einen neuen und äußerst brisanten Fall angesetzt wird. Ein Unbekannter hat es auf das Leben von Nikitas engsten Vertrauten abgesehen, und Max soll den Mörder finden, bevor er erneut zuschlägt.

New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh is back in the shadows of a deadly, beautiful world where angels rule, vampires serve, and one female hunter must crawl out of the darkness to survive. The severed head marked by a distinctive tattoo on its cheek should have been a Guild case, but dark instincts honed over hundreds of years of life compel the vampire Dmitri to take control. There is something twisted about this death, something that whispers of centuries long past…but Dmitri’s need to discover the truth is nothing to the vicious strength of his response to the hunter assigned to decipher the tattoo. Savaged in a brutal attack that almost killed her, Honor is nowhere near ready to come face to face with the seductive vampire who is an archangel’s right hand, and who wears his cruelty as boldly as his lethal sensuality…the same vampire who has been her secret obsession since the day she was old enough to understand the inexplicable, violent emotions he aroused in her. As desire turns into a dangerous compulsion that might destroy them both, it becomes clear the past will not stay buried. Something is hunting…and it will not stop until it brings a blood-soaked nightmare to life once more…

Die Vampirjägerin Elena Deveraux wird von dem ebenso charismatischen wie gefährlichen Erzengel Raphael angeheuert. Diesmal ist es jedoch kein entflohener Vampir, den sie aufspüren soll, sondern ein abtrünniger Erzengel. Um den Auftrag erfüllen zu können, muss Elena bis an die Grenzen ihrer Fähigkeiten gehen - und darüber hinaus! Zugleich weckt der übermenschliche Raphael eine ungeahnte Leidenschaft in ihr. Doch seine Berührung könnte für Elena den Tod bedeuten, denn im Spiel der Erzengel zahlen die Sterblichen den Preis!

Cento anni di schiavitù in cambio della vita eterna: il patto tra un uomo che vuole diventare vampiro e l’angelo che decide di Crearlo sembra vantaggioso, ma cento anni sono molto lunghi... ed è compito dei Cacciatori rintracciare e restituire ai padroni i vampiri che fuggono prima del termine. A New York, nessuno svolge questo lavoro meglio di Elena Deveraux, perché lei possiede la capacità innata di «fiutare» la brama di sangue. Ed è proprio grazie al suo straordinario dono che viene scelta da Raphael, l’arcangelo della città, per un incarico pericolosissimo: trovare e neutralizzare Uram, un angelo che si è trasformato in un efferato assassino. Sebbene nessun umano abbia mai affrontato un essere così potente, Elena non può tirarsi indietro, perché la punizione per aver disobbedito sarebbe peggiore della morte. E, come se ciò non bastasse, la Cacciatrice deve difendersi anche dallo stesso Raphael, che le ha proposto di diventare la sua nuova amante. Tutti sanno che gli immortali si servono degli umani soltanto per divertirsi, e lei non vuole certo lasciarsi trattare come un oggetto. Ma Elena non può immaginare che, a volte, persino gli arcangeli s’innamorano...

An ancient and malevolent immortal is rising. The violent winds whisper her name: Caliane. She has returned to reclaim her son, Raphael. Only one thing stands in her way: Elena, the consort who must be destroyed…

"WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO MARRYING ME?" The proposal was as unexpected as her feelings for the man whose dark good looks rivaled an even darker past. Painful experience screamed that Taylor Reid should run far and fast from Jackson Santorini. But keeping custody of her brother meant becoming her former boss''s bride. And giving Jackson a baby. Despite his powerful size and presence, Jackson had been wounded…deeply…by a woman. Yet he''d protected her at a personal cost, if his restrained ardor in deference to her virginal apprehension was one indication. Suddenly, for Jackson''s sake, Taylor wanted to replace pain with pleasure. Only, she''d never imagined what sensations—and secrets—she would awaken….

She wanted more than his love and support…she demanded honesty between them, starting with his secrets. But there was something in Caleb''s past he could not—would not—share. For the truth would only destroy them.

Marc was dangerous to her in the way that only a strong, sexy male could be to a woman. Even knowing that, she''d agreed to marry him. Hope blossomed in Hira''s heart.

If anything, they gave him an even more dangerous male air, enticing the feminine core of her to thoughts that shocked her. What did a man''s face matter anyway? She had no use for handsome men. But for a man with a heart? For such a man…she might risk everything.

Instead, it was fraught with secrets and mistrust, jealousy and ultimatums—emotions that wouldn''t allow her to maintain the distance she needed. Worse, the sizzling attraction between them made this marriage of convenience decidedly inconvenient.
