Romance Paranormal

After what Risa Jones experienced from the last encounter with her father, an Adeh priest, which ended in death she is in no way, shape, or form interested in seeing him again. Unfortunately for Risa, she has no choice but to do his bidding because she knows unless she does those she loves are in terrible danger. As a half werewolf and half Adeh with psychic powers, Risa is the only who can obtain the key that will keep the demons from hell being released. As if her day wasn't bad enough she is forced by the Directorate of the vampire council to investigate and reverse the curse that's killing council members. With enemies surrounding her from all sides, Risa must rely on the help of her friends, family, and her Adeh lover who may or may not be whom he seems. Then there is Azriel the reaper she is linked to who is not supposed to have feelings but they both can attest to the fact that this particular reaper is longing for more from Risa than just keeping her safe. What's a girl to do but go with the flow and do what needs doing to stay alive and get some answers?

DARKNESS RISING packs quite a punch with its action packed scenes and unforgettable diverse characters. This author's originality has produced a series that is sure to garner her a brand new set of fans interested in paranormal stories with a fresh twist.

SUMMARY

The sexy, thrilling adventures continue in bestselling author Keri Arthur’s new Dark Angels series, starring half-werewolf/half-Aedh Risa Jones. Risa will go to any lengths to avenge her mother’s murder—even if it means making a pact with the most evil vampire she’s ever met. Lethal and powerful, Madeline Hunter is leader of the vampire council, and will put her resources behind finding the killer—for a price. The venerable vampire requires the assistance of Risa’s psychic powers. Quid pro quo. Someone—or something—is targeting the elders of the local council, cursing the immortal vampires to rapidly age, sink into madness, and die. Risa must track down the vengeful being responsible. But Risa’s father, a rogue Aedh priest, also enlists her in a dangerous mission. And not even the great Madeline Hunter may be able to protect her from the shadowy forces that desire nothing less than Risa’s destruction.
