Nothing much happens in a sleepy little town like mine. At least that is what I think until one night everything changes. People are disappearing at an alarming rate, but even more disturbing is how they end up on my table. I’m a coroner and no stranger to death, but even I wasn’t ready for the twisted game this killer plays. It turns personal when I awake to a gift and a note that says, He who wins a thousand common hearts is therefore entitled to some renown, but he who keeps undisputed sway over the heart of a coquette is indeed a hero.

I'm supposed to be taking rulership of my planet when I find myself sneaking aboard an off-worlders' ship. It’s just my bad luck the last known shol male is a compatible mate, when being with him could jeopardize my entire species. I am a ruler, and it is my clan duty to mate for survival…not love. He can’t be mine if I wish to protect my planet from invasion.

Living in the quaint, small town of Adelaide Cove, it was expected that Grant, Edmund, Elizabeth, William, and Samuel would befriend each other. What they didn’t expect was their extreme wealth, questionable pasts and common interests drawing them closer together. No one knew how savagely depraved and carnal those desires truly were.

Being the underboss for the most powerful mafia Don this side of the Mississippi requires a certain level of detachment. After vowing to myself I would never have a family, too afraid of what it’d be like to lose them, I pride myself in being so disconnected from all feelings. Especially when having emotions can get you killed in this line of work, I don’t need the distraction. When my world is turned upside down from a single lapse of judgment, will I go back on my vow? Will I be able to balance the life of a reaper and a family man?
