Wicked Abyss

Name: Wicked Abyss
Author: Kresley Cole

He never wanted to be a beast...

As a boy, Abyssian "Sian" Infernas had his heart shattered by a treacherous fey beauty who died before he could exact vengeance. Millennia later, a curse has amplified his hell-demon blood, transforming him into an unrecognizable monster - just as she's been reincarnated. Sian fantasizes about seducing and spurning her, but he can retain his former appearance for only one hour a day.

She never wanted to be a beauty...

When a beastly demon king abducts her, fey princess Liliana "Lili" Barbot goes from one prison to another. The beast vows revenge for betrayals she can't remember and punishes her with grueling labor within his mystical castle. Her only solace is spending time with a fellow prisoner Bael, a devastatingly gorgeous male who is allowed to see her for only one hour a day.

Can they break the spell before it's too late...?

In the guise of "Bael," Sian toys with Lili's heart and body. Yet as she falls deeper under his spell, Lili can't help but respond to the beast's vulnerability and pain, and her sympathy develops into something more. When truths from a far distant past are revealed and identities discovered, can their tenuous bond withstand ages of deceit - and a looming supernatural war?

Full series details →

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.

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.

Read full series description

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.
