Kalindra (Kalindra #2)
by Sondrae BennettThe GateKeepers, #2 What happens when a warrior woman meets her match? Harpy Kalindra stumbles upon three human corpses who've mysteriously crossed from Earth into Outremer through the portal she guards. A human prisoner with two traveling vampires seems her only clue. She captures the man, and brings him back to her lair to discover the truth--not only why he came to Outremer, but how he got past the defenses of the gate. She expects answers. What she doesn't expect is the intense attraction she feels for him...attraction he seems to share. Cameron has a secret. For years, he's used a shard of the gateway to cross worlds without detection--for his own gain. When the gatekeeper saves him from the clutches of vampires who want the shard, he learns she's not just another monster from Outremer. He can't resist his attraction to her human form, and before long he's feeling more than simple lust for her. Kalindra's gateway comes under constant attack from creatures who want what Cameron has. The assaults are his fault, but he can't hand over the shard, which is a family legacy. He must convince Kalindra he can help defend the gate...but how?36,000 Words

Kaos (Profanebiblioteket #1)
by Jb TrepagnierProfanebiblioteket har alt det ditt svarte hjerte ønsker seg. Men vi tillater ikke hvem som helst et lånekort. Trenger du å mane frem en demon? Vekke de døde? En klan med vampyrer som plager deg? Liker du skikkelig klissete varulverotikk? Profanebiblioteket har alt dette, men det er ikke alle som kan håndtere innholdet (noen folk håndterer ikke varulvporno). Jeg har vært bibliotekar her i fem år, og når jeg sier jeg drepte for å få denne jobben, så tuller jeg ikke. Du kan ikke se gjennom bøkene våre. Noen av bøkene er selvbevisste og liker det ikke. Vi har rom for å utføre trylleformlene i, og vi har en kopimaskin (kopier koster ekstra). Da en heks kom inn og sa at de trengte å gjøre litt nekromanti, satte jeg ikke spørsmålstegn ved det. De ville ikke fått et lånekort om de skulle mane frem noe fryktelig. Jeg hjalp dem med nekromantien fordi det er en av jobbene mine som bibliotekar. Men det var ikke noe normalt de manet frem. Det var den fysiske personifikasjonen av Kaos. Da han våknet, så han meg først, og nå er han knyttet. Personifikasjonen av Kaos er en forferdelig bibliotekgjest, og han vil ikke dra med heksen som manet ham frem. Han kommer konstant inn i ting som han ikke skal, og han er sykt interessert i varulverotikk. Det er ikke sånn at jeg kan slippe ham ut, fordi Profanebiblioteket skal liksom holde igjen Kaos. Resten av verden skal ikke det. Han er også veldig dårlig på å holde identiteten sin hemmelig. En trollmann, en Helveteshund og en vampyr vet at han er her, og de maser på meg for å la Kaos ha det litt gøy. Jeg vil bare ha en normal dag med å mane frem demoner, forbanne folk og fortelle dem å være stille i biblioteket mitt. Dette er for mye.
