Sherrilyn Kenyon

Son of No One Following the success of Styxx, comes the next installment in #1 New York Times bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark­Hunter ...

His name is Cadegan. Centuries ago, he was viciously betrayed by the only person he’d ever trusted and was cast into an immortal prison. Forced against his will to do good, he hates everything in life. All he wants is a way out. But then he meets a woman who shakes him to the core… Josette has been down on her luck, but she has made an unstable peace with the beast by taking a job photographing a local paranormal group. The only paranormal thing Josette believes in is the miracle that keeps her rusted­out hoopty running…until she meets Cadegan. Is he for real? Cadegan can’t help but wonder the same about her: The last time he felt this way about a woman, it cost him everything. He knows he has to stay away from Josette—for his own good, as well as hers—but the unleashed demon is hell­bent on consuming her soul. If one more innocent is taken, Cadegan’s fate will make his current hell look like paradise. But how can he keep Josette safe when just being with her is the greatest threat of all?

Charlotte and Nicole were once the best of friends, spending summers together in Nicole’s island house off of Maine. But many years, and many secrets, have kept the women apart. A successful travel writer, single Charlotte lives on the road, while Nicole, a food blogger, keeps house in Philadelphia with her surgeon­husband, Julian. When Nicole is commissioned to write a book about island food, she invites her old friend Charlotte back to Quinnipeague. Outgoing and passionate, Charlotte has a gift for talking to people and making friends, and Nicole could use her expertise for interviews with locals. Missing a genuine connection, Charlotte agrees. But what both women don’t know is that they are each holding something back that may change their lives forever. For Nicole, what comes to light could destroy her marriage—but it could also save her husband. For Charlotte, the truth could cost her Nicole’s friendship, but could also free her to love again. And her chance may lie with a reclusive local man, with a heart to soothe and troubles of his own.

For a daring Special Agent and a Texas Ranger, the mission was to go deep behind enemy lines and cut out the heart of an astounding conspiracy­before the West was drawn into a bloody war of its own...
