City of Lies and Legends

PRE-ORDER THE HOUSE OF DEVILS SERIES NOW, AND ENTER THE CITY OF ANGELTHENE. WE HOPE YOU SURVIVE . . . 
 
When Darkslayer Darien Cassel first took human Loren Calla under his wing, he’d made a promise to protect her from anything. And now that she has fallen into a coma, every day a losing battle to return to life, he is determined to save her. 
 
When he hears rumors of the one place in Terra that houses a secret that just might bring her back to him, he drops everything to try it, leaving behind the city he grew up in and the people he calls family. His decision sets his best friend Maximus Reacher onto a road of his own—one no less dangerous than Darien’s as he unearths the secrets of his past, uncovering a multitude of lies and legends better left buried. 
 
Meanwhile, in the historic city of Yveswich, Roman Devlin of the House of Black gets tangled up with a shapeshifting Selkie of the Riptide, a member of a rival Darkslaying house and a thorn in his side. Shay Cousens is a pickpocket with endless tricks up her sleeve—and if Roman isn’t careful, she might succeed at stealing both his wallet and his heart as they work together to find her missing sister. Their path will lead them not just to Angelthene, but also into the dark secrets of the Phoenix Head Society—and the restorative body of water that has the power to cleave their world in two. 
 
Loyalties are tested, and worlds collide in City of Lies and Legends, the third installment in the House of Devils series.

Something wicked is coming... 
 
In the sequel to City of Gods and Monsters, Loren Calla and Darien Cassel have settled back into their old routines, grateful that the whirlwind of dangers they’d faced on Kalendae and the weeks leading up to it are now behind them—or so they think. 
 
But Loren soon finds herself caught in a new storm of trouble when the Terran Imperator blackmails her into working for him. There’s only one problem: he expects her to use her magic, and she doesn’t seem to have any of it left. To keep Darien and the other Devils safe, she agrees to everything the imperator asks of her. But the secrets she is forced to keep from Darien, and her involvement with the imperator’s son, threaten to drive her away from Darien in ways she might never recover from… 
 
As Randal Slade’s successor, Darien wants nothing to do with the throne his father once sat in, but the city of Angelthene has other plans. The Magical Protections Unit asks for his help in taking down the illegal arms trade his father once dabbled in, and to do that Darien must claim his place at the top of the tiers of Darkslayers—a crown the other circles are willing to kill to possess. As he spirals deeper into the secrets his father kept, he makes enemies of friends and friends of enemies—and finds himself buried so deep in Angelthene’s underbelly that he is uncertain he’ll ever get out of it. And if that wasn’t enough, Darien fears he is going crazy when he starts to see creatures that only he can see… 
 
Return to Angelthene in City of Souls and Sinners, a gripping, action-packed tale that tackles themes of love and loss, light and darkness, and the battle between good and evil—and what happens when you can’t tell which is which.

Awake or dreaming? 
 
For the past six months, Loren Calla's life has consisted of one simple objective: stay alive. With the help of her new friends and the love of a ruthless Darkslayer, she has defied the odds. But with the Veil rapidly falling, and swarms of bloodthirsty creatures invading Yveswich, survival has once again stepped beyond her reach. Pushed into a war between worlds, she must ask herself a question: what—or who—is she willing to sacrifice for victory? For love? 
 
Darien Cassel fears that his luck is running out. Trapped deep underground, his Sight rendered ineffective by the darkness of another realm, it seems things can't get any worse. But when a new threat emerges, he is forced to push himself to the breaking point—and this time, if he falls, he may not get back up. 
 
Roman Devlin's heart has been stolen by a beautiful thief. His father has demanded that he stay away from Shayla Cousens, but when their paths reconnect by force of circumstance, Roman finds himself falling for Shay all over again. With enemies closing in from all sides, Roman is faced with decisions that have the potential to either shape his future into what he always dreamed it could be...or destroy it. 
 
In this breathtaking fourth installment in the House of Devils series, all must fight if they wish to stand a chance against the dark forces poised to devour their world. But when tragedy strikes again, they realize that nothing, not even love. may be enough to save them this time.
