      <image:caption>Jennifer MacDonald is not having an ordinary day. It's not every day that your roommate accidentally teleports you across time and space, but Jennifer MacDonald is not having an ordinary day. A chance encounter with a custom-built computer and an ancient pyramid sends Jennifer to a faraway land with six warring civilizations and an ancient prophecy that has a visitor from the stars at its heart. All she has to do is unseal one measly, missing god. Now the fate of an alien world is in the hands of a gal who's never landed a steady job or boyfriend, but at least she has watched a few years' worth of archeology documentaries. Hopefully that will be enough to get by, since it seems like most of Earth's lost civilizations ended up stranded in this extraterrestrial zoo too. Also, there is the trivial matter of a Mayan assassin sent to kill her... We are all our own worst enemies, but maybe Jennifer has a chance to break that mold.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Paige Carmichael is about to have a very bad day. Paige Carmichael has one simple rule: don’t rock the boat. She lives a quiet life in the suburbs with an adequate boyfriend and a job that pays the rent, all the while trying to hide the fact that she’s the daughter of a world-renowned paranormal investigator. Her happy bubble bursts when the father she’s tried so hard to forget appears at her door with an ominous message—vampires are real. Paige’s safe little life doesn’t have secretive strangers that hide from the sun, arcane laws, or mysterious covens that stretch back for eons, but change as sure as the cycle of the moon is headed her way. Unfortunately for Paige, it’s a dog-eat-dog world, and if she doesn’t learn to adapt and discover her own inner strength, she might just find herself at the bottom of the food chain—quite literally.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>There's two sides to every story. Caring for a vampire is a dirty job, but Georgia Sutherland is just the woman to do it. As the go-to gal for her recovering master, she has everything a girl can dream of—except for the man that she loves, Ren. Still, Georgia refuses to give up hope. For a chance at bliss, she's willing to risk rekindling her relationship with a rival vampire family. Meanwhile, hallway across the country, Paige DeMarco has given up her old name and her old life, and finally found a man worth her time.  Unfortunately for her, werewolf relationships aren’t as simple as she hoped, especially when her vampire ex rolls into town. Both women have to face the facts: once you get involved with vampires, life becomes complicated. As their lives intertwine, ghosts of the past rise up to haunt them. The only question is, can there ever be a happily ever after for those entangled with the undying?</image:caption>

      <image:caption>It's time to finally find out what happened to Gail Filipovic. They say that sometimes dreams really do come true, but Gail Filipovic was never a big dreamer. A quiet life in Texas, finally working for a legitimate company with a real job – instead of moonlighting for the mob - is all she really needed. OK, this particular slice of American Pie came with a side order of witness protection program and some unexplained scars, but for once, Gail is in control.  Until a handsome stranger rolls into town that is. Jonathan Dean has a past shrouded in mystery, and a mission to protect the very same company that now employs Gail. He seems like a character straight out of those vampire romances she loves to read, but Gail knows those stories aren’t real. Vampires are not real . . .  So why does she have to repeat this mantra every night, and why didn’t she notice that quirky janitor before?</image:caption>

      <image:caption>What do you do when you have nothing left to lose? Paige DeMarco is spending her honeymoon on the run from vampires with her comatose husband and a gang of misfits in tow. How can she lead the last of her pack to safety when she has troubles of her own to take care of? Who can forget Georgia Sutherland? Apparently, the love of her life can, thanks to a kiss from an undead helper. No longer protected by the four laws, she must find a new place in the world and do anything it takes to stay alive. Meanwhile, Gail Filipovic is getting used to the fact that vampires are real. Can she save the day, and find Georgia and Paige before time runs out?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Rules Undying - Four</image:title>
      <image:caption>Finding a job is never easy, and the only employment Gail usually finds is acting as Girl Friday for the mob. Lucky for Gail, Georgia Sutherland has just the job for her—that is, if she can handle working nights, managing a little blood, and a boss who's been dead for centuries. In a single interview, Gail's world turns upside down as she discovers that all she’s seen in Hollywood isn’t quite true; vampires don't combust in sunlight, but they do fall in love.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Rules Undying - Six</image:title>
      <image:caption>Paige Carmichael has one simple rule: don’t rock the boat. She lives a quiet life in the suburbs with an adequate boyfriend and a job that pays the rent, all the while trying to hide the fact that she’s the daughter of a world-renowned paranormal investigator. Her happy bubble bursts when the father she’s tried so hard to forget appears at her door with an ominous message—vampires are real. Paige’s safe little life doesn’t have secretive strangers that hide from the sun, arcane laws, or mysterious covens that stretch back for eons, but change as sure as the cycle of the moon is headed her way. Unfortunately for Paige, it’s a dog-eat-dog world, and if she doesn’t learn to adapt and discover her own inner strength, she might just find herself at the bottom of the food chain—quite literally.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Rules Undying - Ten</image:title>
      <image:caption>Caring for a vampire is a dirty job, but Georgia Sutherland is just the woman to do it. As the go-to gal for her recovering master, she has everything a girl can dream of—except for the man that she loves, Ren. Still, Georgia refuses to give up hope. For a chance at bliss, she's willing to risk rekindling her relationship with a rival vampire family. Meanwhile, halfway across the country, Paige DeMarco has given up her old name and her old life, and finally found a man worth her time. Unfortunately for her, werewolf relationships aren’t as simple as she hoped, especially when her vampire ex rolls into town. Both women have to face the facts: once you get involved with vampires, life becomes complicated. As their lives intertwine, ghosts of the past rise up to haunt them. The only question is, can there ever be a happily ever after for those entangled with the undying?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Rules Undying - Point One Five</image:title>
      <image:caption>They say that sometimes dreams really do come true, but Gail Filipovic was never a big dreamer. A quiet life in Texas, finally working for a legitimate company with a real job – instead of moonlighting for the mob - is all she really needed. OK, this particular slice of American Pie came with a side order of witness protection program and some unexplained scars, but for once, Gail is in control. Until a handsome stranger rolls into town that is. Jonathan Dean has a past shrouded in mystery, and a mission to protect the very same company that now employs Gail. He seems like a character straight out of those vampire romances she loves to read, but Gail knows those stories aren’t real. Vampires are not real . . . So why does she have to repeat this mantra every night, and why didn’t she notice that quirky janitor before?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Rules Undying - Zero</image:title>
      <image:caption>What do you do when you have nothing left to lose? Paige DeMarco is spending her honeymoon on the run from vampires with her comatose husband and a gang of misfits in tow. How can she lead the last of her pack to safety when she has troubles of her own to take care of? Who can forget Georgia Sutherland? Apparently, the love of her life can, thanks to a kiss from an undead helper. No longer protected by the four laws, she must find a new place in the world and do anything it takes to stay alive. Meanwhile, Gail Filipovic is getting used to the fact that vampires are real. Can she save the day, and find Georgia and Paige before time runs out?</image:caption>

Paige DeMarco and her pack still hold on to one hope – the traitor Mordred is reborn as well, and ready to take a stand against his father, that is . . . if he can pull himself together before it’s too late.

      <image:caption>Watching my friends die was hard. Getting blown up right after was even worse. But that’s nothing compared to waking up to the mother I never knew and finding out she’s a monster far worse than anything I’ve faced so far. Now, not only is she trying to set me up with every eligible demon between here and Hades, but she’s busy plotting the demise of my best friend Gary – setting us up on a collision course for a battle to the death. All I want is to escape her clutches and get back to my life, but with a supernatural war brewing that might not be possible. To make matters worse, it looks like my dad has turned into a bomb-wielding madman. With everything going to hell, all I can do is keep fighting the good fight … and hope this is one case where the apple falls far from the tree.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>For five years my life has been a living breathing hell – literally. Worst of all, I don’t remember any of it. We're not talking some vague blackout here, no, this is full-on comic book levels of amnesia. But now I'm back, only to find the whole world managed to survive without me. Some hero I turned out to be. There's no time to wallow, though, not when I'm surrounded by pissed-off dryads and vampires who've somehow figured out how to walk in the sunlight. I'll need to get my head back in the game before they do something stupid, like trigger Armageddon – again. Thankfully, I'm not alone. With an equally confused former vampire by my side, as well as a baby minotaur and my wizard ex-boyfriend, I'll have to contend with the forces of Hades that are hot on my tail. I've been given a second chance at life. Now to make sure I don't die before I can actually enjoy it.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Other Works - The Accidental Summoner</image:title>
      <image:caption>Meg Reynolds was a video game-playing loner stuck in a dead-end job. Her life was on the fast track to nowhere until the fateful day she bit into a bad burrito filled with fate - and a bit of food poisoning. Crying out for relief from the abdominal agony, her prayers were answered - but not in any way she ever expected. Now Meg has a new problem - Vocharlian Variegatus, the so-called guardian demon she accidentally summoned to her bathroom.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Ed Vesser feels trapped by his life – literally. He’s being held prisoner by a would-be world conqueror. All he wants is to escape back to his fiancé, assuming she doesn’t dump his ass when she finds out he’s a vampire. Serena Taylor’s a witch with a knack for technomancy – using her magic to help deliver unreal profit margins. Too bad she’ll need to put in some overtime thanks to long-lost dryads and undead goons breathing down her neck.</image:caption>
