At the height of Britain's Industrial Revolution, steam power and magic join forces to create wonders the world has never seen. But those wonders have a dark side--one that will soon force a reckoning few could have anticipated. Half-demon Briar is content with her structured life as an archivist, a far cry from the chaos of her background and upbringing. Briar's simple and predictable existence is rocked when she discovers something sinister powers one of the grand, new inventions of her era. Isabella Castel, the only daughter of Viscount Sherard, is far from the brainless socialite she pretends to be. Isabella is everything Briar is not: passionate, creative and impulsive, but with secrets to rival even Briar's own. Two more unlikely partners should not exist, yet if the women cannot find a way to work together, they will lose far more than their reputations. Can a half-demon and a debutante work past their secrets before all hell breaks loose?

Demon in the Machine

While investigating the deaths of multiple students at a boot-camp style institution, Malice and Ruri become trapped in the mysterious Kingdom of Flower and Bone-a netherworld filled with both magical and malignant beings. But which is which? Even ancient forces aren't immune to petty squabbles. Will the pair make it out alive? Mary Alice Nolan, code-named "Malice," is a Hunter: genetically modified and rigorously trained to track and kill supranormals ("supras") such as werewolves, vampires, and demons. Seeking revenge after her sister is malevolently "turned" into a werewolf, the last thing the hot-tempered Malice expected was to develop deep desires for one of her sworn enemies. Ruri Samson is a magnificent golden-eyed wolven without a pack. Smart, sensitive and loyal, she considers Malice her mate. Ruri would sacrifice her own life to protect her--and this time she just may have to. Hunter's Descent is the sequel to Five Moons Rising.

Hunter's Descent

KJ Stennes has only one thing on her mind: winning the league championship. She certainly doesn't have time for her defense partner to get pregnant, of all things. But breaking in a new partner--even one who shows as much promise as Adrienne--just isn't part of her plan. Adrienne Pierce hopes moving to a new town with her son, Lawrence, will bring some stability to their lives. That the town has a women's recreational hockey team is definitely a bonus. Despite a rocky start with KJ, the team's star player, Adrienne can't deny the attraction building between them. But how can she get involved with someone when she hasn't yet found the stability her family needs? And soon KJ's budding attraction to Adrienne reminds her that there's more to life than hockey... Maybe it's time for KJ to get a new plan after all.

Breaking Out

All Torrin Ivanov wanted was to get Jak Stowell back, that was supposed to be the hard part. In a cruel twist, Jak is hers again, but her girlfriend is literally losing her mind. The only help can be found on the last planet in the universe to which Torrin would like to return... To cure Jak, they must return to her war-ravaged home planet, Haefen. For Jak, returning to her home planet gives her the chance to make good on a promise too long deferred. But will she be able to finally take out her brother’s killer? Or will she be pulled into the dark undertow of local politics... The two women soon find that politics pale next to the threat of the one who still hunts Jak. This time he has bait--Torrin’s sister, Nat Ivanov. As their search intensifies, Torrin and Jak realize that despite all of the obstacles in their way, one thing is clear--they can at least depend on each other. But will that be enough? Vortex of Crimson is the exciting conclusion to author Lise MacTague’s On Deception’s Edge series.
