DREADFUL DESIRES: VOLUME 1 An erotic horror series revolving around supernatural monsters, from depraved tentacles and perverted plants to haunted dummies and the living dead. A bundled set of three stories from the Dreadful Desires collection: "Season of Owls," "The Conquering Worm," and "Due to the Dead." This set also includes the exclusive bonus story "Sex for Dummies," revolving around a young babysitter's bizarre and sexually charged encounter with a perverted puppet... SEASON OF OWLS: DREADFUL DESIRES #1 Isabel's never believed in ghosts, though the screech of a desert owl still sends a shiver down her spine. Her boyfriend's dragged her to a haunted hotel this Halloween to hunt the spirit of an infamous outlaw, and what should have been a relaxing weekend turns into an illicit encounter with ghostly watchers, bodiless hands and a monstrous entity who wants the beautiful girl for himself... THE CONQUERING WORM: DREADFUL DESIRES #2 A wealthy orphan raised by her sinister uncle, Rose Pemberton's beauty and charm have always drawn more than her share of admirers. Hidden deep beneath the manor garden, however, lurks a different sort of suitor, a monstrous yet irresistible creature born out of her family's secret sins and intent upon claiming the young countess with its indecently snaking limbs and eager maws... DUE TO THE DEAD: DREADFUL DESIRES #3 Emily's always had a second sense when it comes to death, a gift that's isolated her from the world. But when a road trip across the Great Plains with her older sister leads to an abandoned church in the middle of nowhere, Emily discovers its congregants have been waiting for her. A night of grotesque passion awaits, a blasphemously erotic communion between the living and the dead...

DREADFUL DESIRES: THE FALLEN SKY A five-part Dreadful Desires erotic fantasy series revolving around a post-apocalyptic war between humans and angels as royal Nephilim twins Zoe and Mahla contend with both the vengeful Seraphim and the seductive Watchers. For over two hundred years, Heaven and Earth have been at war. Humanity's last bastion, the walled kingdom of Almaladh, is protected from the angels by the beautiful and indomitable twin siblings Zoe and Mahla. A steamy romantic saga that begins with Zoe's reluctant journey into the desert as a sacrifice reveals the true nature of their arcane powers and embroils them in a conflict between the vengeful Seraphim and seductive Watchers that threatens to unravel the universe. The Fallen Sky is a smart and sensual post-apocalyptic fantasy from the creator of the Dreadful Desire women's erotica collection, containing all five original short stories and novellas spanning Almaladh's battle against the heavens. THE FALLEN SKY #1: SPIRIT OF DESOLATION Two hundred years after a devastating war against an alien adversary, the royal daughters of Almaladh use their powers to defend what's left of humanity. Now that power is fading and the day's come for Zoe, raised her whole life as a sacrifice, to journey into the desert and meet her fate. But not every sacrifice is of blood, and the destiny that awaits her is one of desire and discovery... THE FALLEN SKY #2: ETERNAL AUTUMN The war between humanity and the angels continues in this sequel to "Spirit of Desolation." When Zoe and Hiro lead a team to the ruins of Damascus to investigate a mysterious transmission, they discover an unearthly woman from Zoe's past, a monstrous new threat to the fabric of creation, and revelations about the sensual bond between Zoe and Almaladh's ancient guardian... THE FALLEN SKY #3: HEAVENLY DAYS The sequel to the Dreadful Desires fantasies "Spirit of Desolation" and "Eternal Autumn" arrives as the beautiful and lonely Queen Mahla awakens into an ordinary life in a world where the angel war never happened, under the seductive sway of an inhuman lover. But the past isn't undone so easily, and a devastating confrontation looms between Mahla and her sinister paramour... THE FALLEN SKY #4: THE FADED SKY The post-apocalyptic Fallen Sky series builds to its conclusion in this parallel story to "Heavenly Days." While Almaladh continues its search for the missing Queen Mahla, Hiro's timid assistant Greta wrestles with a secret of her own and faces a dark temptation that will both reveal the truth about Heaven's centuries-long war against Earth and mark the beginning of its end... THE FALLEN SKY #5: BABYLON IS FALLING Almaladh is burning. The gates of Paradise have fallen. The last remnants of humanity face extinction at the hands of the heavenly host, led by the mad Nephilim that used to be Greta. And, somewhere on the far side of the world, a ravenous primordial darkness begins to stir... The battle to save an unraveling universe begins in the thrilling grand finale to the Fallen Sky pentalogy. Includes a sneak preview of "The Midnight Wind."
