Mercy Burns
DARKNESS DESCENDS.
LOVE ABIDES. BUT...
MERCY BURNS
Mercy Reynolds is a reporter in the San Francisco Bay area, but she’s
also more — and less — than human. Half woman, half air dragon, she’s a
“draman” — unable to shift shape but still able to unleash fiery energy.
Now something will put her powers to the test.
Mercy’s friend
Rainey has enlisted her help to solve her sister’s murder. Then a
horrible accident claims Rainey’s life, leaving Mercy only five days to
find the killer: If Mercy fails, according to dragon law, Rainey’s soul
will be doomed to roam the earth for eternity. But how can Mercy help
when she herself is a target?
With nowhere else to turn, she must join forces with a sexy stranger — the mysterious man they call “Muerte,” or death itself, who’s as irresistible as he is treacherous. But can even Death keep Mercy alive for long enough to find her answers?

Keri Arthur
In the shadowed spaces where magic meets mayhem, few authors conjure tension and tenderness with the same precision as Keri Arthur. Known for weaving the supernatural into gritty, emotionally rich narratives, Arthur has earned her place as a cornerstone of urban fantasy. Her breakout Riley Jenson Guardian series didn’t just capture imaginations—it helped shape a genre, fusing paranormal romance with high-stakes action and unapologetically complex heroines.
But Arthur’s world-building doesn’t stop with vampires and werewolves. Across dozens of novels and multiple series—including Lizzie Grace, Souls of Fire, and the newer Drakkon Kin Trilogy—she explores themes of identity, loyalty, and power in all its dangerous forms. Her characters, often women bound by duty and haunted by loss, walk the line between light and dark, navigating magical politics and personal reckonings with equal grit.
