Ridding the streets of bad-ass creatures of the night is Gabi’s
other job. Taking up the mantle of her father’s legacy, she is a
Hunter for the Societas Malus Venatori. The first female ever
bestowed the title. Her day job is a little less dangerous. Most of
the time.Being ambushed and kidnapped by the sinfully sexy Master Vampire of the
City should have been just another night on the job, except for the
fact that Julius has other plans for her. When he reveals that his
nemesis wants control of the City and has plans to fill it with
Demons from the Etherworld, creating an army of Ghouls and turning
humans into nothing more than cattle to feed his Clan, Gabi must
choose her path. She must decide whether to join with Julius in a
stand against the Demon Master or flee the City with her friends and
family, leaving the Vampires to wage their own war and the rest of
the residents to their fate.But it’s not in Gabi’s nature to back down from a fight, no matter
how impossible the odds. As the Malus Venatori prepare for war, Gabi
finds herself pulled deeper into Julius’s world and she makes some
disturbing discoveries about her unusual supernatural abilities. Her
existence might just be the answer to a mystery as old as the Vampire
race. Even more unsettling than that is her undeniable attraction to
Julius and the taste of his blood. But before she can come to terms
with her conflicting desires they must all survive the Demon
onslaught and find a way to safeguard the truth of her heritage.While the supernatural bad guys know her as Angeli Morte,her friends call her Hellcat!
If you like your heroine smart, sassy and absolutely kick-ass and your
Vampire hero sexy as sin and twice as dangerous you’re going to
love the Hellcat Series.Contains adult content.

Gabi’s suspension from the Societas Malus Venatori doesn’t feel
like a punishment. Her relationship with Julius is stronger than ever

some convincing. Gabi thinks boredom is her most serious problem. She

running from the threat. She, Julius and a handful of others will be
heading straight into the mouth of the beast. They must present
themselves at Court before the Princeps travel to the City and
inadvertently uncover one of the most closely guarded secrets of the
Magi world.While the Princeps wear a face of impartiality and civility, what boils
beneath the surface is a storm of selfishness, greed, lust and
perversion. Danger lurks in every corner and it soon becomes clear
that someone is determined to ensure that Gabi will never get the
chance of a fair hearing.Old friends and old enemies do what they have always done best, while new
friends and new enemies emerge at every turn. Only one thing is sure;

There was a wall behind her, though he couldn't remember moving. He released her legs back to the ground and pressed her against the pollution-stained bricks. Her hands were already ripping at his belt, as desperate to touch him as he was to touch her. A separate, saner part of his brain assessed the alleyway, checking for company and alert for danger. His men weren’t far off; he could sense them clearly. They wouldn't allow anyone down here. Nothing else human or supernatural was nearby. His belt buckle came free, and her fingers deftly undid his trousers. That was all he could take. He lifted her with one arm and slid his other hand under her skirt to the edge of her lace panties; they gave no resistance as he shredded them. She curled her arms around his neck, her legs around his waist, and captured his lips with hers, groaning into his mouth.

potential can assure victory for the pure of heart.This time Gabi is determined to get Mariska in her crosshairs, and she’s

“Open a vein,” she instructed herself. Shit, she didn’t want to pull Nex out in these close quarters in case Alexander responded to the scent of the blood before she could resheath. She hadn’t come down here to save him only to have him die by impaling himself on her sword. Her teeth would just make a mess of her own flesh. “Anyone got a pocketknife?” she called up to the anxious faces looking down on her.“Incoming,” warned Kyle a second before a small, multi-tool Swiss Army knife dropped towards her.She caught it and flicked open a small blade. She drew in a deep breath, bracing herself, then jabbed the narrow blade into one of the veins of her inner wrist. The pain was sharp, and blood gushed immediately. Gabi quickly pressed the wound to Alexander’s mouth. There was no response. His rigid body remained motionless, the blood dribbling from his ruined lips.Desperate, Gabi used her free hand to shift him, tilting his body so that his mouth faced upward. His flesh was deteriorating with each passing second. She managed to get some blood to stay in his mouth, and she worked his throat muscles, beseeching him to swallow. Faint movement, a gurgle and then a convulsive swallow. Gabi sagged in relief, forgetting Julius’s cautioning words. Without warning, the blistered, charred thing that was Alexander lunged upward and slammed into her with the force of a speeding car.They hit the solid wall hard enough that Gabi was surprised it didn’t shatter. Her breath evacuated her chest, and black spots erupted in front of her eyes as her head connected.
“Gabi,” Julius barked.

Gabi had thought they were ready for just about anything. She had been wrong. There was indeed a trap inside, but not the kind they’d been expecting. As Gabi followed Rory, Ross and Butch through the double doors at the back of the building, she, along with all the other rescuers, came to a screeching halt, and the Vampires paused on the ledges of the windows they’d broken through. The entire inside of the old church had been stripped bare, and in its center a large metal cage huddled, cemented into the ground and reinforced with thick cables lashed to the very foundations of the building. A dozen spotlights, dark but ready, surrounded the cage, and on a pallet in the middle of the cage lay Adriana. She sat up in alarm, her blonde curls tangled and dirty, her face streaked with blood and grime and tears, her clothing in tatters, barely covering her body. “Adriana,” Gabi gasped, rushing forward and tucking the MacDart gun into its holster on her hip. The girl’s eyes widened with recognition and then relief. And then fear. In the dim lighting Gabi could see dark red welts covering much of her friend’s exposed skin, her eyes were round with terror, and the scent of her wolf was dangerously strong.
“Down, down, the cellar,” she said in a hoarse whisper.
could never have imagined that meeting one man would spark a chain of
events that would change everything. The only resemblance to her
previous life is her relentless hunt for supernatural criminals.
Right now, her world has narrowed to two points of focus; co-leading
the newly formed Special Investigations Department alongside Julius,
her Master Vampire Consort, and searching for the traitorous Vampire
Caspian and his pregnant Dark Magus cohort, Mariska. Catching up with
friends and making peace with her mother are also on her agenda for
the week, but life may just have other plans.Even the most rookie supernatural investigator would figure out that
things aren’t going well for the Magi of the City, but the High
Council is maintaining its silence and remaining distant from the
other races. The safety and security of the City’s population is
falling ever more heavily on the shoulders of the fledgling Werewolf
Alliance, leaving Kyle, Trish and the other Pack Alphas to handle a
rising influx of demons committed to infiltrating the City and
wreaking havoc.There are many scenarios that keep Gabi from her sleep, and when one of
those concerns becomes a sickening reality, it rocks her to the core.
Taking one of those most dear to her is a dangerous game, one that
few would play, knowing what she and Julius are capable of. The list
of suspects is short and the guilty party soon shows their hand, but
is this all just a ruse and what could they hope to accomplish by
riling up such powerful enemies?There is no rest for the team as, with one emergency over, they are handed
a scrap of information that will ultimately lead them straight to
Caspian and Mariska. But are they truly ready for the final standoff?Who will make the ultimate sacrifice and how will the rest deal with the
repercussions of an ancient prophesy that culminates in the birth of
Mariska’s twin children?
This is the nail-biting conclusion to the Hellcat Series.Buckle up boys and girls - there’s turbulence ahead.

Red. Red. A deep red mist erupted at the very edges of her vision as fury tore through her. She roared unintelligibly and lunged at Julius, her fists ready to pummel, to hurt, to kill. Steel bands fastened around her wrists, as unbreakable as they were gentle. She struggled, spinning her body, twisting into her captor, throwing her hip and swiping at his knee with her boot. Her move failed to shift the bands that now held her even tighter in their grip. The red grew thicker, obscuring her vision and dulling her senses.“Lea, my Lea.” A soothing voice washed through her mind, blowing at the mist, trying to clear it. “No,” she growled, fighting harder, kicking out again. The fury felt right, it felt good, it was part of her and it wanted to be free. The shackles tugged her forward, forcing her hands down and behind her back. Strong pillars enclosed her, and she was yanked up against a cool, familiar wall.“The rage will not help us now, Lea. I need you back with me. All of you, not just vengeance, not just fury. You are strong enough to deal with this. We are strong enough to deal with this. Come back to me.” She didn’t want to hear the words, trying to block them from her ears, from her mind. But the crisp, cool breeze of his presence was so familiar, so intimate that it was impossible to resist. Lips touched hers, featherlight at first, and then, as she softened her stance, the red cloud receding just a little, the kiss turned harder, became demanding. She breathed out, opening her mouth to allow his tongue entry. His grip around her wrists unlocked and his hands traveled up her body, over her ribcage, up her back either side of Nex’s sheath and into her hair. As the last of the rage burned away, Julius pulled back a fraction, his eyes searching hers, his chest rippling under her fingers.“Hello, beautiful,” was all he said. She dropped her head to his chest, suddenly exhausted. He folded his arms around her and just held her.

and friends safe. They will have to find strength in their weaknesses
and vulnerability in their strengths if they are to survive this
assault. Can they ever be prepared for the consequences of that which

They left the last of the City lights behind them, Kyle navigating the rural road at breakneck speed. He knew this road intimately; he drove it every day. “We’re just about on them,” Gabi warned, checking her phone. Kyle braked, giving the SUV tailing them time to react. And then his headlights caught the cars in the road. The scene made his chest squeeze. Gabi was out of the van before it stopped moving, the Vampires close on her heels as Alexander brought the SUV to a squealing halt beside the van. “Stay here,” Kyle ordered Lucy before he joined them. A small red hatchback was pulled half off the road, at least two of its tyres completely flat. A nondescript silver Toyota was stopped in the middle of the road. Doors were open, a window smashed, and red smeared the windscreen of the silver car. A white wolf stood in the middle of the scene. Dark splashes of something, probably blood, speckled her silvery coat. Her lips were pulled back from her teeth, her eyes hard as agate, her growl menacing as she protected a prone form on the ground. Gabi was already closing in on the wolf, one hand outstretched. “Gabi, don’t,” he called out quietly. “She’ll respond to me. Don’t tire yourself.” She halted mid-stride, she was always one to deal with everything herself, but she’d know he was right. Jade was Pack to him; he was her Alpha. It shouldn’t take a lot of effort on his part to calm her. And this night was far from over. Gabi gave a short nod and moved aside. Throwing a warning look at the Vampires, Kyle approached the wolf. The animal looked up at him, and he could see pain in her eyes. Frowning, he assessed her further. Her breathing was wrong; her heartbeat was wrong. She was standing guard, but it was taking everything she had just to stay upright.“It’s alright,” he said quietly. “We’ve got it from here.” He allowed his wolf to come forward, let his presence be felt, and watched as relief filled her eyes. Without a sound, she moved a step to the side and slowly collapsed onto the ground. “She’s been shot full of silver.” Kyle heard his voice, but it seemed to come from someone else. Her pain had become his own; his wolf howled in unrestrained rage. His knees threatened to buckle under him.
wrote her first auto-biography at age ten. As a teenager, she was
teased about being a witch, because she wore lots of black and walked
around with her black, Oriental cat on a lead. She never disagreed
too loudly, after all, that may have drawn attention to the herd of
unicorns that lived in her back garden. Born and raised in South Africa, she has called New Zealand home since
2008. Her life consists largely of looking after her husband, two
kids, three cats, a dog, a pony and a horse, but her working day is
spent writing, and her occasional hours off usually include books,
horses or a glass of good red wine. Though she has had many jobs over the years, her favorite is, without
doubt, being paid to write about the characters who take up residence
in her head. After an early foray into writing for children, Sharon
discovered Urban Fantasy; the genre that felt as though it had been
created with her in mind. She loves nothing more than to create
strong-willed, female lead characters, who challenge those around
them almost as much as they challenge themselves.Sharon also loves animals of all shapes and sizes. She has owned all the
usual suspects one would keep as a pet, and a few more exotic ones
thrown in for good measure. She spent her teens working at a tourist
farm and animal park, and as a result has handled everything from
porcupines and warthogs, to ferrets and hedgehogs. She has been
surrogate mom to many orphans including; kittens, lambs and an eagle
owl. No matter how hard she tries, animals always seem to steal the
limelight in her novels.
