Nobody who works with superstar political consultant Olivia Shepherd knows that she has supernatural empathic abilities-and that's just how she likes it. But when she wakes up one morning to find Elsa, an ancient time-walker, standing in her kitchen, Olivia can no longer ignore her gifts or the mystical path that awaits her. Soon she is plunged into the hidden world of powerful "Others" who operate beneath the dense fog of San Francisco. Drafted to work for the Council, a shadowy organization that controls the fate of humanity, Olivia must decide whether to dedicate herself to its cause. Complicating matters further is Olivia's new love interest, William, a centuries-old vampire who is far too jaded to take an interest in human affairs. As shocking details from Olivia's own past emerge and her role in the world begins to take shape, will she rise to the challenge of her destiny?

Blood and Ashes by urlove_mar
9 parts Ongoing Mature
In a world where darkness reigns and monsters rule, humanity's survival depends on those with power. A decade ago, the Earth fell to horrific creatures-beasts that tore apart cities and destroyed what remained of civilization. In the aftermath, society fractured into four groups, each shaped by its beliefs and the supernatural abilities that arose in response to the terror. Angels heal the wounded but at the cost of their vitality. Demons wage war on the monsters, fueled by their thirst for human blood. Rare and feared devils wield blood magic that allows them to control the essence of life itself, but they must feast on monster blood to regain their strength. And then there are the God-powered-a mysterious few who possess elemental abilities that could hold the key to ending the chaos but are believed to be little more than a myth. Emery, a quiet college student, lives in the shadows of this broken world. Though she possesses the powers of a Devil, she keeps her identity hidden, unwilling to draw attention. Her days are spent in isolation, away from the chaos, with only her books and a few trusted friends to keep her company. But when whispers of a possible God-powered emerge, Emery is thrust into a deadly race. If she can find them, the union of the Devil and God could be the world's only chance at survival. But trust is scarce, and betrayal lurks in every corner. Demons are unpredictable, Angels are slowly losing their strength, and the Devils grow increasingly detached from humanity, fueled by the monster blood they consume. As the hunt for the last hope intensifies, Emery must navigate a world of shifting allegiances, hidden agendas, and monsters that are not always what they seem. In this dystopian future, where fear and power rule, Emery will have to decide if saving the world is worth the cost of her humanity.

•••••••••••••••• He took a step closer to her, and she took one away from him. "When two people make love, it is sensual, two hearts bonding, and caring for one another. It's slow and gentle and undemanding. It's just you and the person you love, and nothing else in the world matters." She didn't know when he'd gotten so close to her, but her eyes burned as she read the slight expression that flashed across his own eyes... sorrow, as if perhaps remembering something, or someone from his past.

Sophie Taylor is a force of nature. With her sun-kissed blonde hair, piercing green eyes, and a radiance that captivates everyone she meets, she seems destined for greatness-or disaster. As a fearless journalism student at NYU, Sophie's knack for uncovering hidden truths is matched only by her reckless streak. Balancing late-night parties and dangerous investigations, she dives headfirst into her latest target: VelGenics, a biotech giant tied to human disappearances and illegal trials. But her charm and defiance attract more than trouble-they draw the attention of the supernatural world. Adrian Velmount, the prince and enforcer of an ancient and ruthless vampire dynasty, is sent to silence Sophie before her investigation exposes their secrets. Cold, calculating, and impossibly handsome, Adrian is a master of control, armed with centuries of medical knowledge and a reputation that inspires fear across the supernatural realm. Killing a human should be routine-until he feels the bond, the soul connection vampires revere but Adrian despises. Sophie's innocence and recklessness clash with Adrian's precision and darkness, creating a dynamic neither of them can escape. As VelGenics escalates its experiments, Sophie becomes a pawn in a deadly game she barely understands. When she's captured and subjected to cruel trials, it's Adrian's expertise in medicine that saves her life-again and again. Despite his disdain for the bond, Adrian finds himself unable to abandon her, even as his family brands him a traitor. But Sophie's stubborn determination and fearless spirit are as dangerous as her beauty, dragging both of them into a web of betrayal and danger. With VelGenics hunting her and Adrian defying his family to protect her, their bond grows stronger-forcing Adrian to confront the humanity he's buried and the vulnerability Sophie has never known.
