Series: A Cloaked Devices

Genre: Paranormal Romance (PNR) with Steampunk elements

Synopsis:

**Mature Content Warning** 17+ for language and sexual content.

Five years ago, twenty-three-year-old panther shifter Sera Czedar left her home and her newly mated groom in a humiliating position after a mating ceremony gone wrong. She built a new life for herself in Varselles, the City of Outcasts where shifters exiled from their clans in the Seven Kingdoms can go for sanctuary.

Five years ago, panther shifter Levian Grayson was abandoned on the bonding bed by his bride, Sera. After years of tracking her, he arrives in Varselles, intent on staking his claim on her once and for all, even if it means hauling her over his shoulder just to make sure that happens.

Sera has always known her homecoming would eventually catch up with her one day. The one thing she can’t bear to do is hurt Levian, which will happen as soon as he finds out the reason she left him. Is she ready to take that path? Most of all, will Levian still want her when the truth comes out?

EXCERPT


He settled her back on the counter again, this time parting her legs so he could stand between them and holding her in place. Gods, he could stare at his woman his whole damn life.
Tegue’s chair scraped on the wood floor, viciously yanking Levian thoughts—and eyes—from Sera. He turned to see Tegue push himself to his feet and carefully inspect his battered body for damage. Tegue winced, then turned huge blue eyes to Sera, unleashing a look that irritated Levian to no end. The kind that involved huge, wounded eyes and a slight pout in order to achieve some sort of pity.
What a toddler!
 Levian felt Sera shift, and he clamped his hand tighter.
Tegue glanced at Levian’s hand, and when he realised he wasn’t getting any pity, he sighed and said, “Your father said you might say that. He wanted you to come home of your own free will, but when it seemed that wasn’t going to happen…. He was about to Summon you when the investigator came in with the news.”
She blinked, her eyes growing round once again. “He wanted to Summon me? My own father wanted to use that power to force me back home?”
“He is the Alpha.” Tegue stretched his legs, seeming oblivious to Sera’s increasing panic.
The only time Levian could remember her father Summoning her was when she was fifteen and she’d run off in the woods, preferring not to take part in his lessons on how to become Alpha. Those magic words from his lips had dragged her across the grass, slapping against trees until she found herself glaring into his bright blue eyes. Summoning was one hell of a bitch. The invisible bonds woven within each member in the clan ensured Summoning worked seamlessly.
Levian snuck his hand around her neck and began to massage the spot below her ear. He growled in approval when she leaned into his touch, her eyes closed. He could bet no one had touched her like this in the past five years, what with the way her back arched forwards.  “Come on, let it out. You know you want to purr for me, Sera. See, no one can touch you like I do.” He chuckled when her eyes snapped open and she tried to scowl at him but failed miserably. “Your father really wants you home. He will do anything to bring you back. He kept throwing around things like ‘Summon her if you must’ and ‘Club her on the head and drag her back home if it comes to that.’”
She narrowed her eyes at him. “Are you threatening me, Levian?”
He shrugged. “I want you back home. With me.”
“You are not in a position to perform the Summoning on me.” A smile replaced the scowl on her face. A very smug smile.
Levian’s fingers halted. He cocked his head to one side, lips curved into a half-smile. “Aren’t I?”
She studied him through narrowed eyes. “No.”
Tegue snorted. “As a matter of fact, he is. Aren’t you, little brother?”
“Yes,” Levian said. “I am.”

A frown puckered her forehead, and he knew if he tried to kiss it away, he might end up losing his lips. And he needed them for later.

A New Adult Contemporary Romance
by Rebecca Berto

Cover by: Berto Designs
Releasing in late November 2013

Sarah Langham’s life was the epitome of normal until her dad slept with another woman when she was sixteen. It ripped her family apart. Twenty-two-year-old Sarah has it together, though. Waiting at the train station to go home from her first day of her first proper job out of university, she spots a man. He is an enigma to her. She’s drawn to him, with his square jaw; buzz of hair; and his tall, solid frame, seen under the contours of his business suit. And he’s been looking at her, too. Fate pulls them together that night on a whirlwind date, exceeding anything Sarah’s experienced before. He’s even more into her than she’s into him. Finally, she wants to trust a guy for the first time since she was sixteen. But then they discover something. Something that meant they were never two strangers at a train station. And it threatens to tear their future
apart before it, really, ever begins.

Cover Reveal: Heart Breaths by K.K. Hendin




Book Title: Heart Breaths

CAT: NA

RELEASE: November 5, 2013

DESIGNER: IceyBooks (Hafsah Laziaf)

BLURB: After a tragedy nearly ripped 21 year old Madeline Darlington-Gray’s life in half, she's spent the past three years trying to put the pieces back together. But pieces never just fit back together, and when she's betrayed by those she trusts, everything crumbles. Shoving everything she owns into the trunk of her car, Maddie drives south, trying to run from her past.

 Eno, North Carolina seems like the perfect place to hide. Working at a local café is light years from Maddie's Manhattan existence and for the first time in a while, she's finding her family. There's Grandma, the café owner; Samantha, the hairstylist next door with plans to make Maddie's life unsuck and Noie, the three year old girl who's stolen Maddie's heart.
And then there’s Gabriel Mendez, Noie’s single dad. He’s intrigued Maddie since the first time she met him, and while he has his own secrets, he wants more from her than just friendship. But the past never stays past, and all too soon, Maddie realizes she can't hide from hers. If she can't put the pieces of her shattered life together this time, she'll have no hope for a future.
A future she desperately wants.


About the Author:

 KK Hendin's real life ambition is to become a pink fluffy unicorn who dances with rainbows. But the schooling for that is all sorts of complicated, so until that gets sorted out, she'll just write. Preferably things with angst and love. And things that require chocolate.  She spends way too much time on Twitter, and rambles on occasion over at www.kkhendinwrites.blogspot.com.

TEASER:

“Uh, miss?”
“Daddy, its friend!”

“Noie, she’s sleeping. Miss, are you okay?”

I opened my eyes to see a startling green pair looking down at me. “Are you okay?” he asked again, looking concerned. And like he had just rolled out of bed. Was I dreaming? Because dreaming about him was a welcome change from the usual nightmares I had. Those never had guys who looked like a darker version of Thor. Which was a shame. Thor dreams didn’t end with me waking up screaming.

“I’m fine,” I said, struggling to sit up. He crouched down and offered me a hand. I took it and felt my nerves explode in awareness. There was no way this was a dream. I hoped it wasn’t.
