    By Patricia Simpson

    ()

    About this series

    Veronique Dunn has lived on the streets of Londo City since she was eight years old—an orphan in constant danger of being arrested. Three days before her eighteenth birthday, she sees an audition announcement for a new Citizen Symphony. This is her big chance. She might be a rag-tag street rat, but she can play the piano like an angel. And in three days, she will be able to step out of the shadows.

    But staying out of trouble for three days is a real challenge. Her mentor is murdered. She discovers an agent of the Overseers is looking for her. Then thugs accost her, and mysterious Roman Brandt intervenes. He opens his opulent home to her, but forbids her to audition. He warns her that the audition could be a trap.

    Veronique must decide what to do. Give up her dream? Or remain in the only real home she has ever known, with a man who might be the biggest threat of all.

    AUTHOR'S NOTE: If you like gutsy young heroines, older brooding heroes with loyal hearts, stories about forbidden love, ongoing characters you loved and hated in the other books of the series, Victorian London, secrets, Chopin and relentless vampire villains you will enjoy this book.

    Her heart says stay. Her head says run...

      Joanna Wilder’s vow to protect her younger sister is put to the test when Eva vanishes five days before her government-arranged marriage. Has Eva run away with her forbidden lover? Or has she disappeared into the darkness of Londo City, never to be seen again—like so many others? While Joanna searches for her sister, Eva’s heartbroken lover decides to blow up the Central Compound of Londo City. The explosion rocks Londo, and the ensuing rioters trample Joanna in the street. She drags herself to the clinic of Dr. Gabriel Stone—the only man who can save her life and the last person to see her sister alive. What Gabriel does to keep Joanna from dying is something he can never reveal without breaking his own vow, made to his powerful brother, leader of Londo City. But the more he learns of courageous Joanna Wilder, the more he longs to tell her everything. As Londo City descends into chaos for the first time in 500 years, Joanna and Gabriel discover their long-held loyalties shifting—in ways that will transform them forever. AUTHOR'S NOTE: If you like Victorian London, gothic stories, vampires who are more than just blood-thirsty monsters, slow-to-burn romances, strong female leads, colorful sidekicks and snarky villains, you will enjoy this book.

      Reckless Eva Wilder has never made good decisions. A rebel boyfriend. An unsanctioned pregnancy. A loveless marriage in a tiny seaside town. But her world is turned upside down when vampire Overseers execute her commissioner husband for treason. Eva is thrown out of her lavish home and stripped of everything. She has nowhere to go but a shack on the beach. There she finds a shipwreck victim, who has come from abroad to kill the vampires of Londo City, including the devil who killed her husband. Will she help him? Eva flat out refuses. She is done with risky decisions—and men. But as Eva waits for the train back to Londo City, she recognizes her estranged sister in a line of prisoners. She knows the horrible fate her sister will face, and all because of her own rash decisions long ago. Eva has to do something. But what? Stay and rescue Joanna? Ask the vampire killer for help? They could all die... This could be the one chance to redeem herself—or her worst decision ever. This could be the one chance to redeem herself—or her worst decision ever. AUTHOR'S NOTE: If you like heroines with room to grow, street-smart urchins, sunny heroes with big hearts, genuine love stories, ongoing characters you loved and hated in the other books of the series, Victorian English coastal villages, secret tunnels, moody moors and dangerous sea caves, you will enjoy this book.
