For centuries, the Others and humans have lived side by side in uneasy peace. But when humankind oversteps its bounds, the Others will have to decide how much humanity they’re willing to tolerate—both within themselves and within their community... Since the Others allied themselves with the cassandra sangue, the fragile yet powerful human blood prophets who were being exploited by their own kind, the delicate dynamic between humans and Others changed. Some, like Simon Wolfgard, wolf shifter and leader of the Lakeside Courtyard, and blood prophet Meg Corbyn, see the new, closer companionship as beneficial—both personally and practically. But not everyone is convinced. A group of radical humans is seeking to usurp land through a series of violent attacks on the Others. What they don’t realize is that there are older and more dangerous forces than shifters and vampires protecting the land that belongs to the Others—and those forces are willing to do whatever is necessary to protect what is theirs…

Going on a very public date with Ryker Harrison, the sexy, surly ex-boxer whose Alpha attitude and string of one night stands have earned him the nickname “the Big Bad Wolf”? Daisy would run as fast as her paws could carry her...if it wasn't a publicity stunt for her favorite aunt's new dating service. But it turns out the handsome shifter and his family have other ideas. Apparently after her first date, his nosy, interfering pack think she's agreed to be his life-mate. And the curvy she-wolf has Ryker convinced it's time to give up his playboy ways and claim Daisy for his own. Except Daisy's pack has other plans for her, and they’ll stop at nothing to use her for their own ruthless ends. And her friends keep showing up to rescue her, when she least needs their help. And his family can’t stop messing up Ryker’s attempts to court her. Ryker's determined to fight for Daisy...but can he roll with the punches when word reaches him that Daisy has ditched him for a wolf with a more impressive pedigree?

When it comes to The Underground, trouble is always brewing. How could it not? Whatever the particular desire, it's guaranteed to be available at the club which caters to ever being, race, and creature which exists in the New Realms...and lets them indulge in their every fantasy. So maybe Nemesis had been looking for a little trouble. A little trouble, not the sound and fury striding in with long pale hair and attitude for days. And though Nemesis knew better, it didn't stop her from getting involved in a situation she had no business in, not after those green eyes met hers. But there is one truth that always needs to be remembered for those indulging in what The Underground offers - Fantasy only lasts so long, and real life eventually returns. How will Nemesis deal when her world and her time at The Underground crash together in ways she never imagined? \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ Nemesis Underground is a short story whose events take place concurrent with the story The Dream Crafter. Because of that, while it doesn't end on a cliffhanger, it does contain an open ending as well as references to that book.
