New York

2018

He appeared out of nowhere. He saved her life. Now she might need him again. Allie Taylor has been fascinated by seers for as long as she can remember. Ever since her dad took her to see them when she was a kid, at a circus-like expo near her home city of San Francisco, she’s always wondered about them. A second, psychic race discovered on Earth, seers are exotic, beautiful, hyper-sexual, dangerous as hell… and really expensive to own. Unfortunately, a lot of the world doesn’t share Allie’s fascination. Enslaved throughout the human world, seers can’t even venture into public without papers issued by their owners, and without a collar restraining their psychic sight to render them harmless. While they’re an exotic fascination to Allie, she knows she’ll likely never encounter any in real life, given how rich you have to be to get near one. Then her boyfriend has a band concert in New York. Before she’s even left San Francisco, Allie barely survives a terrorist attack at the airport. She’s saved by a man she’s never seen before, a tall, mysterious stranger with pale, glass-like eyes and black hair, who seems to crop up everywhere she turns. At the same time, someone starts leaving her cryptic, vaguely threatening, and creepy notes about the end of the world, and her boyfriend starts blowing her off for one of his lame band groupies. When a bizarre seer religious cult targets Allie for an end of the world ritual, her visit to New York goes from bewildering to probably fatal. THE BRIDGE & SWORD SERIES is a dark, gritty psychic warfare romance, from a USA TODAY and WALL STREET JOURNAL bestselling author. Set in a gritty, alternate version of Earth, it stars Alyson Taylor and her partner, dark and dangerous infiltrator, Dehgoies Revik. For fans of romantic, character-driven science fiction and fantasy worlds, filled with twists and turns and backstabbing betrayals, with heroes and villains who are sometimes the same people. The Bridge & Sword books span continents and historical periods as Allie and Revik try to save the human and seer races from destroying one another, and keep their friends and loved ones alive in the process. The world is dying. Everyone feels it, and yet... no one knows. They said that when the end was near, a Bridge would come, and lead them out of the darkness of that dying world. My name is Allie Taylor, and I am that Bridge.

Revik

Early Years

2013

This is an alternate-cover edition for ASIN B00CR43UWM. Revik: Allie’s War, Early Years ~ Prior to meeting Allie Taylor in San Francisco in 2012, infamous seer and infiltrator, Dehgoies Revik, lived life as a Rook, as one of their most senior lieutenants. By 1974, he’s worked for Galaith for over thirty years, ever since he and Terian first pulled Revik out of that Nazi prison in Berlin, in 1942. Revik tells himself he’s helping his people, working for ‘the Org,’ as he thinks of the Rooks’ network these days. He believes it, too, until a strange female seer finds him in Vietnam and forces him to confront who he really is...and who he’s let himself become as a slave of the Dreng, (explicit material). Synopsis for Allie’s War Series ~ An urban fantasy paranormal romance set in a unique, gritty version of Earth, populated by a second race of beings called seers, the Allie’s War series centers on the relationship of a strong female protagonist, Allie Taylor, and her antihero guide, Dehgoies Revik.

Trickster

2019

“He’s a sociopath, brother Quay, so have a care…” Feigran was a normal seer once. But that was a long time ago. He had a family, a home, a sister… Now he is Terian, one of the highest-ranked seers in “The Org,” the feared dark seers who work behind the scenes to enslave humanity. Quay is one of his subordinates, another member of the Org who hunts terrorists with the aim of recruiting them to their cause––a cause bent on taking over human civilization to ensure his own race’s survival. Quay meets Terian while working a top secret mission in Brazil. When that mission takes a peculiar twist, Quay realizes he’s caught up in something much bigger… something that might just signal a new epoch in the war between seers and humans. WARNING: This is a book that tackles some dark themes, with characters who are pretty dark themselves, and not really the “anti-hero” and “sexy but tortured” kind of dark, but the “he’s really dark and twisted” kind of dark. There is also M/M sexual content and themes. SERIES NOTE: This is a Terian and Revik prequel novel in the apocalyptic Bridge & Sword series and companion to The Defector (Bridge & Sword Prequel #0.3) Praise for the Bridge & Sword Series “Highly Recommend!” ~ Escape Into A Book “Word of advice…remember to breathe!” ~ The Cabin Goddess "\[F\]illed with more backstabbing betrayal, twist and turns than I even thought possible..." ~ I (Heart) Reading “The sexual tension is scorching...” ~ The Muses Circle “\[B\]eware; you’ll immediately want to dive into the next installment.” ~ The Indie Bookshelf Series Summary The Bridge & Sword series is a psychic romance set in a unique, gritty version of Earth populated by a second race of psychic beings called Seers. Its heroine, Allie Taylor, was marked “The Bridge” from birth, born to be the leader of the Seer race and the bringer of the next stage in humanity's evolution. Unfortunately, to many Seers, that means the death of just about every human on the planet. She is helped and hindered, awakened and impeded by her antihero partner, Dehgoies Revik, whose on-again-off-again relationship with the dark beings known as the Dreng may destroy them both. The series takes place in a modern version of our world at the brink of apocalypse and a dystopian future. It spans centuries along with the lives of its main characters, the Seers, and the wars they fight with themselves and their human allies and enemies.

The Defector

2019

He would be despised. By all of them, he would be despised. The shadow of the Rooks hangs over Revik’s head––a constant reminder of the dark warrior he used to be. Hidden away in monastic caves after he leaves the network of terrorist seers, Revik no longer knows who he is, or what his life means. When a delegation from renowned holy warriors, the Adhipan, appears, asking for his help, his first impulse is to say no––until they tell him it is Kali who needs saving, Kali who rescued Revik from the dark, when no one else would. Revik agrees to fly across the world, facing off against his old friends, the Rooks, including his ex-partner, Terian, who is clearly holding a grudge about Revik’s defection. When they come after him, either to kill him or bring him back into the fold, Revik finds himself faced with old demons and new temptations, and the ongoing decision of which side he will fight for, the light or the dark, and what he’s willing to give up to be the man he desperately wants to be. In the end, he thinks he’s got nothing left to lose. It turns out he’s wrong about that, too. A Revik prequel novel in the Bridge & Sword series, and companion novel to Trickster (Bridge & Sword Prequel #0.2).

The Guardian

2019

“If there ever was a race-traitor job, this was definitely it.” Revik, infamous seer and ex-lieutenant of the Rooks’ dark army, arrives in London with a new job, a new home, and new people watching him. Some of those people want to control him, some want to bed him, and some want to kill him for a past he can’t seem to escape. None of that exactly helps him do his shadow job, his real job, as guardian to the holy Seer known as “The Bridge.” As for the Bridge herself, she has no idea who she is, or even that she’s Seer. Known by her human friends and family simply as “Allie,” she definitely has no idea of the powerful forces arrayed against her, or those trying desperately to protect her. Instead, she grapples with her new relationship with Jaden, a sexy musician drawn to her on first sight. No one in Allie’s life likes Jaden very much. Not her brother, not her mother, not her best friend, Cass… and certainly not Revik himself. It isn’t long before Revik begins to hate Jaden, even before he’s admitted to himself why. That’s true well before Jaden gives Revik a really good reason. ~ A Revik and Allie prequel novel in the Bridge & Sword world ~ Synopsis for the Bridge & Sword Series The Bridge & Sword series is a story of epic psychic battles, set in a unique, gritty version of Earth populated by a second race of psychic beings called Seers.
