A My Bloody Valentine story

Rick feels like he's finally getting his life on track...until a dead body in his flat threatens to derail more than his new career.

Things are finally looking up for Rick Bennett. He's landed a job with Swanson and Gerrard, one of the top finance firms in London and, with it, a chance to pay off his father's debts and finally make something of his life.

When he's put in charge of brokering the biggest deal in the company's history, he knows he can't lose, even though his boss, Cecily Swanson, clearly wants more than just a professional relationship.

Book one in the Blood and Bonds series

Jesse Truelove never felt a part of his own family. But can a vampire really give him a new one?

With a criminal record, no steady job and a penchant for kink, Jesse Truelove has spent most of his life feeling like an outsider. He tells himself it doesn' t bother him, that he never needed human connections anyway.

Now the Undying Baron, Emory Von Magnusson, a vampire— or, to use the modern term, ‘ haemophile' — has reclaimed his ancestral home north of Jesse' s hometown, and the human population isn' t sure how to react. Jesse knows a thing or two about what it' s like to be misjudged, so he keeps an open mind. But when a bungled break-in at Emory' s home brings them face-to-face, Jesse finds it' s much more than his mind that' s stimulated.

However, building a relationship with an undead blood-drinker was never going to...]]> Wed, 18 Jan 2023 17:25:48 +0200 Straight to the Heart https://fantasy.library.land/s-j-coles/606296-straight_to_the_heart.html https://fantasy.library.land/s-j-coles/606296-straight_to_the_heart.html

What happens when the person you can't get out of your head also happens to be the number one suspect in your murder investigation?

Derek Benson, CEO of Benson Industries, is found dead in his office at a time when everyone in the building, including him, should have been at an important meeting about the company's future. Conveniently for the killer, the security footage from the time of the murder has vanished.

None of this fazes FBI Agent James Solomon. James knows himself, his job and how to set aside his ongoing personal problems to get the job done, even when the investigation is in a small-town backwater like Winton.

There's just one problem—the intriguing form of young lab technician Leo Hannah, an employee of Benson Industries and a key witness, who appears to know more than he's admitting to.

As the investigation progresses, James finds that his previously steadfast ability...]]> Tue, 28 Jan 2020 14:55:03 +0200 My Iron Knight https://fantasy.library.land/s-j-coles/618581-my_iron_knight.html https://fantasy.library.land/s-j-coles/618581-my_iron_knight.html

An Enemy Territory story

Dash Cassidy loves his town even more than his bike, but his priorities have a violent shift in gear when an irresistible Russian hitman comes along.

Darius ‘Dash' Cassidy has ended up president of the small town of Salvation's Iron Knights motorcycle gang, almost by accident. His sister, Zara, is the more business-savvy and ambitious of the two, but their father—the infamous Butch Cassidy—was far from politically correct, so Dash was left in charge.

Up to now, Dash has been more than happy to muscle his way through life as his father did before him, even if he is starting to suspect that something might be missing.

But now there's a new player in town. Iris Damaro has plans to make Salvation the center of her international smuggling operation. Dash isn't going to sit still while Damaro steamrolls through his town,...]]> Thu, 13 Oct 2022 00:31:34 +0300 Dark Summer https://fantasy.library.land/s-j-coles/595504-dark_summer.html https://fantasy.library.land/s-j-coles/595504-dark_summer.html

A sequel to Blood Winter

Is a human lifetime long enough to learn to love a vampire?

The tumultuous events of the Blood Winter are a fading nightmare, and Alec and Terje are trying to build a life together at Alec's newly restored ancestral home of Glenroe. There's just one problem... Terje doesn't appear to be committed—constantly called away on mysterious errands and seemingly unable to forsake his own kind. Alec begins to wonder if Terje is capable of loving anyone, let alone him.

When an old uni friend Jay Singh, recently out of the closet and looking rather too good to be true, returns to Alec's life, he becomes more conflicted than ever. Things only escalate when Alec is forced into the social and political issues still surrounding the haemophiles' tumultuous integration into human society and soon it is more than just his relationship on the line.

Vampires are attempting to integrate into human society. When Alec MacCarthy first meets a ‘haemophile’ in the flesh, it’s not the obvious dangers that frighten him. Alec MacCarthy, Lord of Aviemore and largely-forgotten descendent of a once-proud family line, keeps the wolf from the door of the crumbling family mansion by restoring classic cars. He leaves the real world alone and wishes nothing more than for it to return the favor. But in a reality where haemophiles—still colloquially known as vampires, despite the publicity campaigns—have come out of hiding and are attempting to integrate into human society, the real world is rapidly becoming a disrupted and conflicted mess that threatens to trouble even Alec in his remote Scottish hideaway. When he unwittingly attends a Blood Party to please a friend, he has his first meeting with one of these mysterious and dangerous beings. Terje is like nothing he has ever encountered before…literally. His reactions are as troublesome as they are undeniable. Alec’s snap decision to help the haemophile rather than sample his sense-heightening and addictive blood sets them both on a path that will lead them into a tangled web of intrigue with consequences that will change their lives—and the world—forever.]]> Mon, 03 Feb 2020 14:51:34 +0200 The Devil You Know https://fantasy.library.land/s-j-coles/618582-the_devil_you_know.html https://fantasy.library.land/s-j-coles/618582-the_devil_you_know.html
