Dreams of a Dark Warrior

It’s a gripping tale of a battle-maddened warrior driven by revenge and the Valkyrie temptress who haunts his dreams.

He vowed he’d come for her...
Murdered before he could wed Regin the Radiant, warlord Aidan the Fierce seeks his beloved through eternity, reborn again and again into new identities, yet with no memories of his past lives – only an endless yearning.

She awaits his return...
When Regin encounters Declan Chase, a brutal Celtic soldier, she recognizes her proud warlord reincarnated. But Declan takes her captive, intending retribution against all immortals, unaware that he belongs to their world.

To sate a desire more powerful than death...
Yet every reincarnation comes with a price, for Aidan is doomed to die when he remembers his past. To save herself from Declan’s torments, will Regin rekindle the memories of the passion they once shared – even if it means once again losing the only man she could ever love?

Immortals After Dark

In Immortals After Dark, the veil between the supernatural and the mortal world is thin—and it’s a place where passion, danger, and fate collide in electrifying ways. This series pulls readers into a world teeming with ancient warriors, seductive immortals, and fierce creatures bound by blood, power, and irresistible desire. But beneath the intensity of supernatural battles and thrilling confrontations, the heart of this series beats with fiery romance that ignites between the most unlikely of characters.

The series introduces readers to a host of formidable beings—vampires, werewolves, witches, and demons—each with their own dark secrets and tortured pasts. These immortals are bound by ancient rules and their own insatiable cravings, yet what makes them unforgettable is their capacity for love, loyalty, and sacrifice. In this world, no one is truly safe from the chaos of their desires or their enemies, and every romance is a dangerous, tantalizing game of survival.

From the moment the first book ignites, it becomes clear that this isn’t your typical paranormal romance. The stakes are higher, the world-building is richer, and the relationships feel more like a battle to be fought and earned. Each book in the series delves into a unique dynamic between two powerful beings, drawn together by fate or blood, forced to face the odds in ways that are as dangerous as they are passionate.

In this dark and compelling universe, love isn’t a mere escape—it’s a force that tests the characters’ limits, changes their fates, and shapes the very course of the battles they fight. Whether it’s the tension between a fierce Valkyrie and a tortured vampire or the stormy connection between a ruthless demon and an innocent mortal, each story blends sizzling chemistry with high-stakes action that never lets up.

What sets Immortals After Dark apart is its vivid, immersive atmosphere—where every moment crackles with tension, and every twist feels earned. The world Cole creates is as seductive as it is dangerous, where alliances are formed and broken in the blink of an eye, and where the supernatural isn’t just a backdrop but a driving force that shapes the very essence of each character.

Each installment promises not only a thrilling romance but a deep dive into the complex dynamics of immortality, power, and the eternal fight between light and dark. If you're ready to dive into a world where the impossible becomes real and every passion carries the weight of centuries, Immortals After Dark invites you to lose yourself in its pages.

Immortals After Dark consists of twenty-one primary books, and includes one additional book that complement the series but is not considered mandatory reads and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
