I'm Val Thorvald, and I'm an assassin.When magical bad guys hurt people, I take care of them. Permanently.This doesn't make me popular with the rest of the magical community—as you can tell from the numerous break-ins and assassination attempts I've endured over the years. But thanks to my half-elven blood, a powerful sword named Chopper, and a telepathic tiger with an attitude, I've always been able to handle my problems with aplomb. Maybe some cursing and swearing, too, but definitely aplomb.That changes when my boss is afflicted with a mysterious disease, a government agent starts investigating me, and a godforsaken dragon shows up in the middle of my latest job.I've taken down vampires, zombies, and ogres, but dragons are way, way more powerful. And it doesn't look like this one is going to like me.Worse than that, he wants to use his magic to compel me to do his bidding, as if I'm some weak-minded minion.That's not going to happen. I'd die before being some dragon's slave.But if I can't figure out a way to avoid him, save my boss, and get rid of the government spook, I'm screwed. Or dead. Or screwed and dead. And that's never comfortable.Pick up Sinister Magic today to see if I make it. Even if you don't care about me, I promise the tiger is cool.

The night I wore the white dress, I lost everything. Caden's voice rang out across the whole pack, clear and cold under the full moon. *I reject you, Mara Voss. A Blank has no place in my pack.* The bond snapped like a wire pulled too tight — I felt it in my teeth, in the backs of my eyes. But I didn't cry. I refused. The same night, deep in the forest where I had nowhere left to go, something found me. A man with gold-lit eyes and a body temperature that had no business being that warm. Kael Draeven, the Wolf King. The most powerful being in our world. His first words to me were, *I've been looking for you.* Right. Sure. My ex-fiancé dumps me in front of everyone, and now the king is looking for me. What a week. He offered me three days in his palace. A deal, he said — not a command. I told myself I only agreed because I had nowhere else to sleep. That was mostly true. What I found inside those walls: cold stares, whispered nicknames I won't repeat, a forbidden east wing no one would explain, and a rumor about a woman Kael once loved who vanished without a trace. What I didn't expect: the way his hand felt when it closed around my wrist, like a current running under the skin. The heat that shot through me when I touched a wax seal I didn't recognize. And the thing he said, quiet and certain, that cracked the ground under everything I believed about myself. There's no such thing as a Blank. If that's true — then what have I been all along?

Magic entered the world twenty years ago. I was born to kill it. I’ve spent my life hiding in the shadows of Mythos City, terrified that someone will discover my secret – a single touch from my skin strips a magical practitioner of their power. Permanently. But when my sister is threatened, I step out of the shadows and straight into the path of Jace, the city’s most ruthless Alpha. He doesn’t arrest me. He claims me. Now, I’m under his "protection" in a compound filled with wolves who want me dead. But the Alpha isn’t the only one watching. A shadow faction known as the Kings is rising, and they know exactly what I am. They don't want to arrest me, either. They’d prefer a weapon. And Jace is the only thing standing in their way. Tropes: forced proximity, grumpy/sunshine (with a lethal twist), hidden identity/power, and protective Alpha. • Heat: Slow-burn, fade-to-black. • Action: High.

When everything falls apart, the truth of who they are is revealed. Poppy has fallen into stasis, her body broken and power spent, carried beyond the mortal realm. While she lies suspended in dreams, Casteel faces a world without her—raw, wrathful, and altered in ways he doesn’t yet understand. Left to steady a kingdom trembling under the weight of loss, Kieran shoulders what he cannot say aloud, even as the fractures between gods, mortals, and fate widen around him. In the days that follow, grief becomes a guide, loyalty a burden, and love the only thing holding the realms together. These are the pieces that fill the silence. The moments of wrath, ruin, resolve, and the spark of what must come next. A Crown of Ruin reveals the unseen moments of love, loss, and change that happened between The Primal of Blood and Bone and The Throne of Bone and Ash.

“Action-packed …. Rice's writing is solid and the premise intriguing.”  --Publishers Weekly  (re A Quest of Heroes)   “I await each release by this author eagerly and have never been disappointed!” --Book Reviewer (Wish) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐   From #1 bestseller and USA Today bestseller Morgan Rice, whose books have over 10,000 five-star ratings, comes the debut of a spectacular new fantasy series, DEATHBORN, ideal for fans of Rebecca Yarros, Callie Hart, and Carissa Broadbent. When the dead start whispering to Elara Gray on her 18th birthday, she thinks she’s losing her mind.    But then comes the invitation to Greyveil Academy, a school hidden in the misty mountains where the veil between worlds is paper-thin.    Turns out, she isn't crazy—she's Deathborn, the rarest and most feared type of supernatural. Those with her gift can command the dead, making them dangerous to everyone living.   But Greyveil isn't the sanctuary Elara hoped for. The school operates on a brutal hierarchy based on supernatural lineage—and Deathborn are at the bottom.   At Greyveil, they teach that death is just another beginning. Elara is starting to believe them. But if she can't master her abilities and find allies among her enemies, it might be the end for all of them.    Because in this world, it's not just the dead you need to fear—it's what controls them.   Seductive romance meets supernatural intrigue in a high-stakes world where mortality's boundaries fade and forbidden power awaits those willing to pay its terrible price. As enemies become reluctant lovers amidst ancient magic and deadly political games, morally complex characters must navigate their darkest desires and dangerous alliances—challenging readers to question how much they would sacrifice for power that transcends the veil between life and death.   Future books in the series are available!   “Loved it.
