Obsession by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Hunter
is a ruthless killer. And the Department of Defense has him firmly in
their grasp, which usually doesn't chafe too badly because he gets to
kill bad guys. Most of the time he enjoys his job. That is, until he's
saddled with something he's never had to do before: protect the human
Serena Cross from his mortal enemy. Soon he's doing the unthinkable
breaking the rules he's lived by. But are the aliens and the government
the biggest threats to Serena's life...or is it Hunter?
Ruined by Jus Accardo
Eternal Balance #1
Jax
lost the genetic lottery. Descended from Cain, the world's first
murderer, he's plagued by a curse that demands violence in exchange for
his happiness. Samantha can't outrun her problems. When an attack at
school drives her back home, she's thrown into the path of a past--and a
guy--she's been trying to forget. But someone--or,something--followed
her home from school: a ruthless monster with a twisted plan centuries
in the making. Forced together to survive, and fighting an attraction
that could destroy them both, Jax and Sam must stop a killer bent on
revenge.
Embraced by Jus Accardo
Eternal Balance #2
Descended
from Cain, Jax Flynn is destined to spend his life making others
suffer. To shield the world from horrific chaos, he was forced to
sacrifice the only thing he loved. Samantha Merrick. When an enemy from
the past resurfaces with an ultimatum—complete a simple task or Sam
dies—they're backed into a corner. The goal? Kill a demon called Malphi.
The problem? Jax's demon, Azirak, has no intention of letting that
happen…
Released by Jus Accardo
Eternal Balance #3
Jax
Flynn’s life just went from bad to worse. He was already sharing his
body with a demon named Azirak, but after killing its mate... Well, shit
got real. Now the demon has taken control of Jax’s body and everything
he cares for is at stake, including Samantha, the girl he loves. Yeah,
that’s not going to happen. It’s time Jax showed everyone what he was
really made of.
Forged by Fate by Reese Monroe
He’s
waited more than 900 years to love her...Being the Gatekeeper to Hades
is no small feat, but Theo Bradford’s mark has finally surfaced on young
genius, Sadie Nowland, and now he has to convince her to embrace her
supernatural heritage. Targeted by a vicious demon escaped from Hades,
Sadie is thrust into the volatile world of Shomrei warriors and a
connection to Theo her brain can’t comprehend and her body can’t deny—a
bond that just may be the key to the world’s survival.
Marked by Hades by Reese Monroe
Bound by Hades #2
For
911 years, Gatekeeper companion Justin Bradford has denied the
possibility of being mated to only one woman. He enjoys them all too
much to settle down. So when he feels his mate’s Ahavah mark surface,
his first instinct is to ignore it. But when he sees the leather-clad
beauty in need of his help that’s easier said than done. As Justin and
Yvonne navigate the mystery of her past, their bond grows, but the
secrets they discover and the sacrifices that must be made could be
enough to rip them apart for eternity.
Claimed by Light by Reese Monroe
Bound by Hades #3
When
his sister becomes tangled with a coven of demons, college senior Slade
Bennet must trade his soul to save her. But first he must kill the
assigned target: a sexually charged beauty who ignites his protective
instinct. Halena Girard lives for only two things: vanquishing demons
and seeking Artifacts rumored to lead to Lucifer’s downfall. That is,
until she’s seduced and tortured by a...frat boy? Working together is
the only way Slade can find his sister and Halena, the Artifacts, but as
they face the darkest of evil, crushing Halena’s carefully erected
walls might prove to be the most lethal battle for Slade.
Altered by Marnee Blake
Altered #1
The
sickness came on suddenly and violently. When it ended, the entire town
of Glory seemed to be dead...except Blue Michaels. And she is very
different. Only a handful of them made it, including U.S. Army
Specialist Seth Campbell, who is fierce and protective, and way too
good-looking. Now they are hunted. What their pursuers don't know is
each of them has strange new powers. And they’ll use their "gifts" to
survive...no matter who stands in their way.
Avenged by Marnee Blake
Altered #2
Special-ops
soldier Nick Degrassi blames himself for Kitty Laughton’s capture, and
he’ll do whatever he can to free the quiet beauty, but close quarters
and a shared secret bring an attraction that neither of them expected.
With the organization that started it all making mercenaries for hire,
Nick and Kitty must save themselves and stop a madman...before it’s too
late.
Darkside Sun by Jocelyn Adams
Mortal Machine #1
Since
she was six years old, Addison Beckett's seen the world around her
unraveling, as if someone is pulling a thread from a sweater and it’s
all slowly coming undone. Her arrogant-but-hot professor Asher Green
insists that the dead from a parallel dimension are trying to possess
the living in this one. And since Addison seems to be the only one who
can see these “wraiths,”she just might be the key to saving the world.
Stop the wraiths. Break the rules. Save the world. All in a day’s work.
Normal was overrated, anyway.
Midnight Dawn by Jocelyn Adams
Mortal Machine #2
With
only three days until the wraith king turns the earth into an
all-you-can-eat buffet, Addison Beckett must enlist brooding sentinel
Asher Green’s help. But Asher has erased her memory, along with the
knowledge that he loves her, wants her, needs her. When Addison’s
trapped by the wraith king, she must choose who will stand by her side
during battle: the sentinel she loves who refuses to love her back, or a
powerful stranger who insists they’re meant to be together. Her
decision will decide the fate of humanity, and once determined, can’t be
undone.
Forever Dusk by Jocelyn Adams
Mortal Machine #3
Life
for the Mortal Machine—the secret-society that protects Earth from dark
forces—has become almost...normal. For everyone but Addison. The evil
she's imprisoned in her soul is destroying her sanity. Consequently,
nobody believes her warnings that an old enemy has returned. If she
relies too much on her soul mate Asher, he'll likely imprison her, if
only to keep her safe. So she's forced to distance herself from her
love—to keep the world from certain death.

Authors Marnee Blake, Reese Monroe, & Jocelyn Adams share their inspiration for their otherworldly heroes!
Who or what inspired your otherworldly heroes?
Reese Monroe (author of the Bound by Hades series): I've always been inspired by The Rock and Vin Diesel. Yeah, I know I kind of dated myself a little there, but in some of their movies...**whew**...the lengths to which they'll go to protect what's theirs--amazing to watch.
Off the screen, if you watch their social media feeds, it's all about family, inspiration and working hard for your goals. I'm all about that.
Oh, and they're nice to look at, too.
As far as what inspired me while creating my heroes...Love. In all honesty, faith, hope and love are the key elements to all my stories. Love being the greatest of these. It makes my heroes stronger than they already are and that kind of strength, no matter what kind of evil they face off with, gives them an edge.
Jocelyn Adams (author of the Mortal Machine series): Years ago, a friend of mine suggested I read the Anita Blake series of books by Laurel K. Hamilton, and I absolutely fell for Jean-Claude. Tall, unusual, with a colorful past, and that French accent was the cherry on top. He was the first hero I'd ever read that stepped outside the boundaries of typical romantic relationships. The moment I finished the first book in the series, I knew what genre I wanted to write.
Besides otherworldly heroes, about what kind of heroes do you like to read?
Marnee Blake (author of the Altered series): I love reading about heroes who do real-life heroic things as well. FBI agents, cops, detectives, military men, firefighters... People who help others are sexy.
Reese: Those who cherish their mates above all else and would do anything for them. Also, I love a good hero that is strong and honorable.
Jocelyn: Dark anti-heroes are my absolute favorite, or even better, villain-turned-heroes. There's nothing I love more than a good redemption story.
