Set against a background of unrivaled beauty and mystical fascination in the ancient kingdom of Siam. The drama begins on the first page of The Falcon of Siam with a sea adventure as Constantine Phaulkon is betrayed by the crew he hired to help him smuggle Dutch made cannons to the Queen of Pattani. The fate of Phaulkon's grand plan, not to mention his life rests on the successful completion of this sale. At stake is not only the vast trading opportunities of this rich opulent kingdom but Phaulkon has fallen in love with the beautiful and exotic country of Siam and its people and he understands the serious threat the Dutch pose to an independent Siam. If the Dutch control Siam they would also control the vital Mergui Crossing and be able to exert a monopoly on virtually all of the European trade with Asia. Setting at the controls of this whirlwind of deceit, treachery and betrayal is King Narai. The revenue to run Siam came from trade and the King knew the Arab traders who were put in positions to control the trade with the outside world by his ancestors were cheating the Siam treasury. The King hoped to use the Dutch as a balance to bring the Arab traders back in line. At first the Dutch with their superior technology seemed to offer a solution but the Dutch were so efficient they soon wanted to take control and run the whole country. The latest foreigners to arrival were the British, and among them was one with a name impossible to pronounce but he had learned to speak Siam. None of the other foreigners except for a few Jesuit priests had learned to speak Siamese. The King had his spies keep a close watch on this strange newcomer.

Meanwhile, Tania another part-Elven hero saves Queen Egny of Otanga. And Sir William at Crown Castle makes a stand against the Ortaks, with his few brave men.

Cross My Heart: Fiona was my first love. She was everything to me. And I broke her heart. But that was a long time ago. Now, my military career is over. I’m back in our small town, running my family’s inn, hoping for a second chance with the one that got away. Too bad Fiona no longer believes in second chances. Or love. Every Beat of My Heart: I never really cared that everyone saw me as nothing more than the charming Calloway—the one who refused to grow up. Until I met her. Claire is sexy. Smart. Put together in a way I’ll probably never be. She’s also the single mom of one of my students, which means a relationship with her is strictly forbidden. Close to My Heart: No one is as close to my heart as Sutton. We’ve been best friends forever, and I love her. I’m also in love with her. Not that she knows it. I can’t risk losing her over something as unpredictable as romance. So, when her grandmother issued the ultimatum to marry or lose everything, I didn’t intend to get involved. But I did. Follow My Heart: Violet is my sister’s best friend. She’s sexy. Smart. Even sweeter than the ice cream she crafts in her shop. I’ve known her since we were kids. But she’s all grown up now. I know I should stay away. Our timing couldn’t be worse. All My Heart: Luna is my unreasonably sexy new next-door neighbor. She’s everything I’m not—sweet, sunny, and an emotional open book. She’s also a distraction I don’t need. Especially when she’s naked in the hot tub. Fire in My Heart: Hiring the sunny marketer, the one with boundless enthusiasm, wasn’t my idea. My dad insisted on hiring Charlotte. Her mission? To market our fledgling Christmas tree farm. My mission? Figure out why she’s triggering all my cop instincts.

Step into the exhilarating universe of the Black Raiders with this boxed set! Featuring the final three titles from Ana Night’s riveting series, it’s a must-have for those who love action-packed gay romance and suspense. This Boxed Set Includes: DISARMING A RAIDER When FBI agent Axel Bates agrees to protect his best friend’s twin brother, he gets way more than he bargained for, because Maze Romero is nothing like he imagined. Saving Maze quickly turns into more than a simple rescue mission. There’s nothing in the rulebook about living with a mobster and certainly nothing about falling in love with one. A RETURNED RAIDER The past isn’t something Detective Cole Banks likes to think about. Not that he has a choice when a murder forces his partner and him to return to his hometown. Old wounds are ripped open when their case leads them to Cole’s father, but confronting him about his abusive childhood doesn’t go the way Cole expects it to. AVENGING A RAIDER Eleven years ago, Lieutenant William Stanton’s entire world went up in flames. He lost his brother. His family. He left his old life behind to hunt down the people responsible. Avenging his brother was all he’d thought about, all he’d done, for a decade. A sexy little assassin shouldn’t be able to distract him from that goal, but he never counted on the feelings Colt would spark in him.
