"e;Marry the devil…or die."e; That's the ultimatum Belle Harrison, vampire slayer, just received from a demon. Belle has only one response: To hell with him. Turns out it's not that easy, though—apparently the devil doesn't know the meaning of the word no. Lucky for Belle, three panty-melting vampires come to her aid. Three hot vampires she can't resist. Hey, we all have our vices. Hers just happen to have fangs. And she's going to need these three to help her thwart the devil's marriage proposal and defeat the terrifying dark force that wants her dead.

Betraying him might save her life…but at risk of losing him forever. Belle Harrison, vampire slayer, would give anything for a simple night of patrolling on her own damn terms. But the graveyard is crawling with creeps with hidden agendas. Not to mention the dark unknown that wants to take her out. And we're not talking dates here, people. Good thing Belle has three panty-melting vampires to help her. Except one of her guys has a past that's catching up with him. Violently. Belle's fairly certain she can save him. But if she betrays him, she'll gain a wealth of knowledge that could help her survive the dark unknown. A lot is at stake, including everything that makes her the slayer she is, and it just plain sucks.

They say if one door shuts, another opens. No. Slam it closed, lock them both, and don't. Touch. Anything. The door to the graveyard's mausoleum won't shut. It's standing wide open in invitation to Paul, the dark unknown who wants Belle, vampire slayer and…uh, layer, dead. Because someone—or something—is helping him. Well, f@ck. After a race against time to find out who, Belle and her three hot vampires must make an impossible choice—let Paul get what he's after inside the mausoleum or rush straight into a trap to find a way to kill him.

The problem with Belle Harrison, vampire slayer, is that she doesn't give two sh&ts about lakes. That all changes when she learns of a certain lake that could show her the truth in its depths about the dark unknown who wants her dead. Unfortunately, only the devil knows where this lake is. Damn it all to hell, he's hot, sexy, wrapped in leather, and yearning to get down Belle's pants with one lust-filled glance. But he's also a prickly bastard. Belle's going to need her three vampires' help to slap some sense into the devil, even if it hurtles her closer to a one-on-one brawl with the dark unknown.

Belle Harrison, vampire slayer, has just leveled up spectacularly. She's thirstier. And sensier. Yes, that's a word now. But her new dead life isn't all bloody cocktails and hot sex with her three gorgeous vampires. The dark unknown who wants Belle dead—permanently—has been up to no good. It's time to take him down. No problem, right? Wrong. No slayer has ever survived until their twenty-first birthday except one, and he lost his damn mind. And something's not quite right with Belle's…

Yara Parmstone, human thief and newly chosen Queen of the Dragon Shifters, is unimpressed with her new title.

They're pissed. They blame Yara. And they're out for blood. It's even worse than that, though. Something dark and powerful is working to pit the dragons against each other, including the brothers in Yara's sexy-as-hell harem. Why? To invade the land and snack on some crunchy humans, of course. Yara's about ready to develop a new motto: bros before hordes before civil wars.
