Some nights never end.
Some desires never die...


Shape-shifting werewolf and vampire Riley Jenson is through with death — causing it, solving it, surviving it. Her soul mate, Kye Murphy, is dead — and at Riley’s own hands. Not even the seductive embrace of her vampire lover, Quinn, can fully ease her mind, for she has begun questioning everything that makes her Riley — including her job at the Directorate.

Now, the ritualistically slain bodies of ex-cons have started turning up. Reluctantly, Riley takes the case, but something even worse is waiting in the wings. A vicious enemy from her past is determined to strip Riley of everything that gives her life any meaning: her lover, her brother — and even her own identity. Can Riley survive this ultimate assault? All she knows is, she must fight one last time to find answers, before everything goes dark forever.

Keri Arthur

Keri Arthur

In the shadowed spaces where magic meets mayhem, few authors conjure tension and tenderness with the same precision as Keri Arthur. Known for weaving the supernatural into gritty, emotionally rich narratives, Arthur has earned her place as a cornerstone of urban fantasy. Her breakout Riley Jenson Guardian series didn’t just capture imaginations—it helped shape a genre, fusing paranormal romance with high-stakes action and unapologetically complex heroines.

But Arthur’s world-building doesn’t stop with vampires and werewolves. Across dozens of novels and multiple series—including Lizzie Grace, Souls of Fire, and the newer Drakkon Kin Trilogy—she explores themes of identity, loyalty, and power in all its dangerous forms. Her characters, often women bound by duty and haunted by loss, walk the line between light and dark, navigating magical politics and personal reckonings with equal grit.

Born and raised in Melbourne, Australia, Arthur began her creative journey in the quieter corners of everyday life. She once worked as a cook, and that grounded perspective—the sense of duty, resilience, and resourcefulness—echoes in her protagonists. While her stories dive deep into fantastical realms, there’s always something deeply human anchoring them: the weight of choices, the ache of loneliness, the fire of survival.

Arthur’s work has been translated into several languages, landed on bestseller lists, and continues to resonate with readers around the world. She remains a fiercely independent voice in speculative fiction, consistently delivering fresh takes on classic mythologies. Whether she’s introducing readers to ancient relics, bloodline magic, or dragon-kin royalty, she writes with a clear reverence for character-driven storytelling—and a knack for keeping readers up way too late.

For fans of atmospheric urban fantasy with teeth, heart, and heat, Arthur's stories offer a gateway to worlds that feel both wild and eerily familiar.
