From 1866 to 1878, former Rebel cavalry captain Gabriel Kings has been the bane of railroad barons and bankers from Wyoming to Texas. But now, after twelve years on the run, he and the gang of outlaws calling themselves the Avenging Angels of the Shenandoah are about to face the most serious threat of their long and infamous careers--a posse headed by two seasoned Texas Rangers and a pair of cagey Pinkerton detectives. Raising the stakes even higher, an old enemy has set his sights on Kings, and the woman Kings loves--spirited rancher's daughter Belle Jackson--is wearing thin for waiting on him. Can Kings make it through this last scrape in one piece, or has his time finally come?
With the deaths of young Scottish aristocrat David Glen Tannock and world-renowned scientist Dr. Charles Phipps--both members of the elite Cambridge society known as "the Apostles"--barrister-sleuth Sir Patrick Scott suspects that one of the Apostles is murdering his colleagues
The series that's "a breath of fresh air for fans of paranormal cozy mysteries" (Publishers Weekly, starred review) Law school hasn't prepared Bree to appeal cases for the dead. After inheriting her great-uncle's haunted law firm, she must now represent ex-banker O'Rourke, who supposedly killed himself after losing a fortune. But with a merry widow and evidence mounting, it's beginning to look like murder. So Bree and her team of angels begin to investigate. But Bree soon discovers that someone would rather see her deceased than debriefed.
The girls came from every corner of the U.S.S.R. They were factory workers, domestic servants, teachers and clerks, and few were older than twenty. Though many had led hard lives before the war, nothing could have prepared them for the brutal facts of their new existence: with their country on its knees, and millions of its men already dead, grievously wounded or in captivity, from 1942 onwards thousands of Soviet women were trained as snipers. Thrown into the midst of some of the fiercest fighting of the Second World War they would soon learn what it was like to spend hour upon hour hunting German soldiers in the bleak expanses of no-man's-land; they would become familiar with the awful power that comes with taking another person's life; and in turn they would discover how it feels to see your closest friends torn away from you by an enemy shell or bullet. In a narrative that travels from the sinister catacombs beneath the Kerch Peninsula to Byelorussia's primeval forests and, finally, to the smoking ruins of the Third Reich, Lyuba Vinogradova recounts the untold stories of these brave young women. Drawing on diaries, letters and interviews with survivors, as well as previously unpublished material from the military archives, she offers a moving and unforgettable record of their experiences: the rigorous training, the squalid living quarters, the blood and chaos of the Eastern Front, and those moments of laughter and happiness that occasionally allowed the girls to forget, for a second or two, their horrifying circumstances. Avenging Angels is a masterful account of an all-too-often overlooked chapter of history, and an unparalleled account of these women's lives. Translated from the Russian by Arch Tait
Rachel Armstrong has a burning need to right the world’s wrongs. Thus, she becomes the Avenging Angel. And maybe she’s a bit too cocky about it. While riding a hunch about the identity of a kidnapper, she runs into Julien “Cap” Jackson, who was trained by the team at Nightingale Investigations in Denver. Now he’s a full-fledged member at their newly opened Phoenix branch. It takes Cap a beat to realize Raye’s the woman for him. It takes Raye a little longer (but just a little) to figure out how she feels about Cap. As Raye introduces Cap to her crazy posse of found family and his new home in the Valley of the Sun, Cap struggles with his protective streak. Because Raye has no intention to stop doing what she can to save the world. But there’s a mysterious entity out there who has discovered what Raye is up to, and they’ve become very interested. Not to mention, women are going missing in Phoenix, and it seems like the police aren’t taking it seriously. Raye believes someone should. So she recruits her best friend Luna, and between making coffees, mixing cocktails, planning parties and enduring family interventions (along with reunions), the Avenging Angels unite to ride to the rescue.

A shifter sliced her wings away…and now an angel is trapped in hell. Or, trapped in the mortal realm. Same thing. Because to former angel Marna, living with the humans and the other paranormal beings is hell. A savage attack took her wings away, and all she wants to do is get revenge. Angels aren’t supposed to want revenge. They aren’t supposed to hate. They aren’t supposed to feel any emotion. But without her wings, Marna is powerless against the onslaught of human emotions that are bombarding her. She’s losing her control. She’s terrified. She’s desperate and… He wants to protect her. Panther shifter Tanner Chance wants to protect Marna. He found her in the woods after his own brother sliced away her beautiful wings. Tanner knows that Marna hates him, and all he wants to do is help her to heal. Unfortunately, Marna is being framed for a series of attacks and, as a cop, his job is to arrest her. But how the hell do you throw a fallen angel into jail? Simple. You don’t. You do team up with the angel and start trying to find the real killer. And that’s Tanner’s plan. Find the real killer. Clear Marna. But as they rush through the night and dodge the danger that chases them, Tanner’s inner beast recognizes Marna for what she really is…his mate. He craves her, he needs her…and he will do anything to claim her as his. He’d claw his way to heaven and rip his way through hell in order to possess her. Marna shouldn’t want Tanner. She shouldn’t feel the needs and lusts raging through her body. But when Tanner teaches her just how intense pleasure can feel, she starts to realize that maybe there is more to the man guarding her than just the beast he carries. And maybe…maybe there’s more to her than just being a lost angel. AVENGING ANGEL was originally released by Kensington Publishing in June of 2013. The book features an innocent angel who is about to be taught all about the virtues of sin by one very determined panther shifter. Hope you enjoy the paranormal ride.
