Champion Chronicles

Dreams are often hidden desires... even if they are terrifying. Michael Malone, a mystically enhanced vampire, destroys three immortal sorcerers and takes on their vengeful army of hell-beasts in an ungodly, unprecedented battle. His reasons? Retribution. And love. Now, poisoned and captured, his body is exsanguinated and left to rot in a cell beneath the city. Guided by the angel Helena, he spins an epic fantasy of compelling love and deep devotion to the one woman he treasures and his mystically-human, very troubled son. Michael's fading mind roars through emotional twists and unexpected turns, through passionate highs and very human, realistic lows. Is there deliverance or the end to his immortal existence at its conclusion? Each revelation offers grains of hope and redemption. Yet the commanding vampire's last words doggedly remain "Let me die."

Every action has a consequence. And for this mystically enhanced vampire every action is too monstrous to face. To burn in the fires of Hell is his destiny. Rescued by Alana, the woman he loves, Michael Malone consents to a unique, mystical healing, something he doesn't fully trust. He awakens a seventeenth century man who abhors being turned into a vampire. His mystically human son rails against the comfort of a father he desperately needs. Alana remains cautious until all of Michael's memories are restored. After an unnerving, unexpected showdown with Cyril, his sire, he acquiesces to the final request of the Georgian Council. But it is a brutal one: To document in detail every kill, every gruesome act as a vampire-in solitary confinement. Will this shatter his reclaimed soul? Will he request death by silver sword? Or is his true destiny only a breath away?

Too many questions, too many doubts... Michael Malone's new existence is beyond puzzling. Yet keeping his distance from Alana, his soulmate, and Lukas, his troubled son, only makes more of a mess in these important relationships. The mystically enhanced vampire's beast-within is now safely entombed in consecrated ground. When it is resurrected by dark magic and implanted in a teenage girl, he fully senses this aberration... feels responsible. Will he be able to destroy the entity, or will he be forced to take it back within his soul to save an innocent? Alana and Lukas are integral during his quest to locate the wicked wizard and a beautiful but cunning female vampire he knew centuries ago who inspired this heinous act. When his new reality, his very human life, hangs in the balance, together they face unparalleled evil. Many innocent lives are at stake-should they not succeed.

Martine, a good witch and ER nurse must enlist Lukas, a mystical warrior she had pushed away years ago, to save her patient who is under the spell of a dark witch from the Second Realm. Simply seeing each other again has them both questioning their feelings, but Martine refuses to open her heart. When she asks him to return to a realm where he was once held captive, he agrees. With the help of an arrogant vampire and his mystically enhanced father, Lukas faces unexpected danger. To bring the dark witch into the human realm, he must trust others in the Second Realm. When the hidden portal closes and Martine's patient is safe, Lukas is ready to tell her how he feels. In this heart-warming romance, they will open their hearts to love - all because of what happened on a night of the crescent moon.

Right answers don't come easy. When magic is involved, they never do. Chris Forbes is pretty damn comfortable with magic, mystical warriors and vampires. When chests of coin arrive, strong warnings don't squelch his curiosity. While others focus on a strange vampire war, Chris is drawn to dark magic. Nothing else matters anymore. Paige Virelli has been in Chris's life for seven months. The sweet Georgian nurse sees the change in him. Her world falls apart. Is her love for Chris not enough? Now, with danger everywhere, she and many others aren't safe. Jumping through a portal to the Second Realm, Chris believes he'll convince the ruling sorcerers to release his captured friends. Instead, he's bombarded with life-altering revelations that require sacrifice. Will accepting his true destiny save the dying realm? Will Paige be his past, not his future? Only time will tell.

"Shall I keep humanity safe or let seven deadly sires loose on the world?" Not a typical choice for an arrogant vampire. Draven is brutally bloodied and humiliated by a powerful sire in another realm. Barely escaping through the portal, he is trapped in the ethical dilemma of treason or compliance. For a century, he has existed in the morally gray, keeping certain secrets. He has just assisted two notorious mystical warriors, and decades ago, he abandoned Luna, his immortal love, sending her into seclusion. While he suffers and heals, Luna is brought to him, which deepens his dilemma. As Draven considers his options, this vampire must place his trust in those whose mission is to destroy him. Their complex plan to trap the sires may result in Draven's final death. Can he pull it off? The crucial decision is his alone.
