Book 1

Ancient Protector
by Katie Reus
Even as he fights for their future…
With the world still rebuilding after massive dragon attacks, famous singer Star isn’t willing to rely on a stranger
to protect her family—though dragon shifter Lachlan is difficult to resist. Something about him is strangely
familiar, but she doesn’t understand why. He’s already helped Star rescue her sister from a recent abduction, but
trust doesn’t come easy when his kind has nearly hunted her race to extinction. When her sister’s kidnapper
launches another violent attack, Star has no choice but to accept Lachlan’s aid. But no matter that he’s stepped up
to protect her, she’ll never allow the ancient Scottish dragon into her heart.
They’re bound by the past.
Lachlan lost the woman he was meant to mate millennia ago. Unable to live in a world without her, his pain drove
him to hibernation. He never thought he would move on—until Star. He’s well aware the feisty shifter is his new
destiny, so if tailing her to New Orleans is what he has to do to be near her, then so be it. When Star is attacked,
Lachlan resolves to protect her at all costs. And he won’t have to do it alone. It will take Lachlan, his clansmen,
and Star’s misfit band of friends to rain fiery vengeance down upon their enemy if she and her sister are to ever be
truly free. Only then can he claim her and discover the shocking truth that lies buried in their past.

Ancient Enemy
by Katie Reus
She should be his mortal enemy.
Ancient dragon shifter Rhys awoke from his slumber hungry for revenge against the witch who killed his sister.
When his hunt takes him to the rebuilding city of New Orleans, he finds a woman he can’t keep his eyes off—but
she’s a witch. While Rhys wants to despise all of Dallas’s kind, even he can’t deny that she's beautiful, kind and…
adorable. And her pet baby dragon only increases his fascination with the sexy woman. Protective instincts he
never knew he had take over him as they hunt powerful monsters. He’s forced to confront everything he thought
he knew about witches as his life is turned upside down.
But he wants her anyway.
Dallas Kinley is used to being hated because of what she is. Witches have always been the pariahs of the
supernatural community. Until now, when the world needs rebuilding. Even though she wants to keep her distance
from Rhys, vampires and humans are dying in New Orleans, so she vows to help him hunt down those responsible.
But finding the enemy comes at a heavy price, because Dallas is hiding a terrible secret. As they race against the
clock to find the murderers, she can only hope his need for revenge won’t rip them apart. Especially when he finds
out what she’s been hiding from him.

Ancient Enforcer
by Katie Reus
An ancient dragon warrior determined to protect what’s his…
Former general Mikael lost everything thousands of years ago. His clan, his family, his honor. Now he’s awakened
in a new world that has devolved into chaos—fire, blood and destruction. He and his brothers are ordered to live
with Avery, a human female, and her younger brothers. Avery is nothing he should want. She’s too soft, too
sweet…too happy. But he can’t stop his growing obsession with her.
The human female who threatens his jaded heart…
House flipper Avery is no stranger to heartbreak, and knows that the ones you love most can stab you in the back
the quickest. When she’s asked to shelter a bunch of dragon shifters, her instinct is to say no. Until she meets the
ragtag group of males who are struggling to adjust to the new world. Against her better judgment, she agrees to
take them in. Even if the gruff Mikael has heartbreak written all over him, she can’t help but fall for the sexy
dragon a little more every day. But when a threat from her past emerges, promising to tear her world apart, things
suddenly change between them. As they race against the clock to save her family, Mikael must risk everything and
claim her before it’s too late.

His responsibility is to his pack, his people—the territory of New Orleans.

it seems there’s a new challenge—rogue witches, treacherous vampires, evil dragons. But his biggest threat is

But she makes him want more.
After being held captive for a year, Aurora has embraced her freedom. For the first time in her life she’s living

back on its feet. Giving to others is helping her combat her PTSD, but she’s far from the woman she used to be.
Even so, she can’t fight her ever present and growing attraction to King. Except she’s afraid she’s broken, that
she’ll never be able to have a normal relationship again—that she can’t handle being an Alpha’s mate. When an
evil linked to his past threatens to tear them apart and destroy the city, she must set her fears aside and
