Darkness Rising
The sexy, thrilling adventures continue in bestselling author Keri
Arthur’s new Dark Angels series, starring half-werewolf/half-Aedh Risa
Jones.
Risa will go to any lengths to avenge her
mother’s murder — even if it means making a pact with the most evil
vampire she’s ever met. Lethal and powerful, Madeline Hunter is leader
of the vampire council, and will put her resources behind finding the
killer — for a price. The venerable vampire requires the assistance of
Risa’s psychic powers. Quid pro quo.
Someone — or something — is
targeting the elders of the local council, cursing the immortal vampires to rapidly age, sink into madness, and die. Risa must track down the
vengeful being responsible. But Risa’s father, a rogue Aedh priest, also enlists her in a dangerous mission. And not even the great Madeline
Hunter may be able to protect her from the shadowy forces that desire
nothing less than Risa’s destruction.

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.
