Darkness Unbound
Risa Jones is as extraordinary as her heritage. Born from a lab-enhanced clone mother and an Aedh father, she can not only talk to the souls of the dying and the dead, but she can see the reapers and walk the gray fields that divide this world from the next.
They are skill she rarely uses, however, preferring to concentrate on the business she shares with her two best friends. But when her mother asks her to help the parents of a little girl locked in a coma, she reluctantly agrees. What she discovers scares the hell out of her. Because the little girl’s soul no longer resides in her body, and it wasn’t death and the reapers that took her.
Someone had ripped her soul from her flesh.
As it turns out, a creature consuming the souls of the innocent – and not so innocent – is the least of her problems.
Because someone wants to rip open the gates that divided hell from earth, and Risa is a key component in their plans.
And the only person standing between her and disaster is a reaper who isn’t exactly on her side.

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.
