College student Cal Warner spends a good portion of her time trying to keep people from thinking she's crazy. But her carefully constructed reality is turned upside down when she discovers that Relian, the seductive elvin prince who has been starring in her sensuous fantasies, isn't merely a myth. Now she's bound to an elf and stuck in a magical land where no one, least of all Relian, is willing to spill any answers about the truth of her arrival. Relian has lived a life that hasn't changed in millennia, and he likes it that way. As Prince of the Erian people, he has his conscripted duties. And a human woman, even one as desirable as Cal, does not fit into them. But as the enemy darkindred knock on the borders and the magic of his people fades, he might just have to find room. The only other hurdle? He has to make her fall in love with him so she'll tie her life to his—forever. This is the first book in the Mists of Eria series and contains adult content. Previously published under the title Bound by the Mist in 2012. Freshly updated with a new cover, revisions throughout the story, and newly added or changed content.

Adamant Spirits

After countless millennia as the King of Eria, Talion thought he'd experienced all life had to offer. That is, until Maggie entered his land. The beautiful human whirlwind refreshes his spirit, while all too often trying his patience. Though he desires nothing more than to claim her as his bond mate and queen, his secrets could drive them apart or even end their lives. Stranded in the elvin land of Eria, Maggie D'Anglio spends her days trying to figure out a way home while attempting to avoid the sexy and provoking Talion. Unfortunately, she's living in his palace. His world. His rules. The mysterious king intrigues and infuriates her as no one ever has, a lethal combination to her commitment-phobic heart. But when she parties too hard and wakes up magically bound to him, there's no escaping the irresistible irritant--or her new role in a land on the brink of war with the darkindred.

Bound to the Elvin King

Liar, murderer, traitor … these are all names Eamon has been called, and he wears them with pride. Depending on which side one falls, those titles are only too true. But it's all part of his orchestrated manipulations. Up until the day he was banished from the fae land of Eria, he had schemed for millennia to protect his people, even resorting to murder. As punishment, the Erian king exiled him on Earth to live amongst the lowliest creatures of all — humans. Yet one frustrating and captivating woman shakes his ingrained beliefs to the core. Newly minted physical therapist Caralyn Alberts has been drawing images of a handsome, otherworldly stranger for as long as she can remember. She's chalked it up as a fluke occurrence of life. But when she finds the arrogant Eamon sprawled out on the ice at a local park, her life becomes just as slippery and dangerous as the hauntingly familiar elf. Enemies, friends, and unwilling partners inundate them from all sides. When Eamon's treacherous past makes a reappearance, they'll have to trust each other in order to keep their hearts — and their very lives — intact. This story is the third book in the Mists of Eria series and contains adult content. This book was previously published under the same title and has a new cover and fresh edits.

He and his people have blackness flowing through their veins, but she wonders just how truly dark they are. Compelled by magic and the Change, she embarks on an intimate relationship with the human-hating leader that leaves her awash in lust and confusion. Will something more come out of their mutual need, or will they lose their lives and people to a desire that should've never existed? #fae hero, #antihero #human heroine #fantasy romance #fae lord #fae leader hero #fated mates #sensual

A Free Dystopian Fantasy Romance

The Fae Lord's Companion, Part One

From award-winning Lisa Kumar comes a contemporary fantasy romance of a fae shifter driade who hides in plain sight as a businessman and finds the human woman who is his destined mate. When Ashlee Trent meets handsome businessman Kaiden West on a plane to Australia, he eases her fears even as he sets her heart ablaze. After their plane crashes into the ocean and they wash ashore on an island in the South Pacific, danger and intrigue greet them. Too bad most of it seems related to the mystery of who—or just what—Kaiden is. Ashlee must now try to tease apart what is fact or fiction if they're ever to have a future together. Kaiden West, a fae driade-shifter, keeps dozens of secrets about his life and his people—like the truth of their very existence. The faerin hide away who and what they are so they can mesh seamlessly with humans, who'd only show them fear and prejudice if their true natures were revealed. When he meets the lovely but flustered Ashlee, he's drawn to her in a way that he's never experienced before. Though they've survived a plane crash, will the secrets surrounding him not only send their budding relationship into a nosedive but also end their lives? This novella contains adult content and is perfect for fans of Tasha Black, Sarah J. Maas, C.N. Crawford, and Alessa Thorn. This story was previously published as Crashing into You and was also in the anthology Crashing into Love. Kaiden and Ashlee later appear in the Mists of Eria series, so some of The Faerin characters crossover to the Mists series. This crossing-over starts in Bound to the Dark Elf, Book Three of the Mists of Eria series.

Sanclen hates everything about Christmas. Too bad he’s stuck as Santa until he “earns” his repentance. But when Santa’s Orb reveals the elf's newest torment – a mandated case he’s to solve – he has no choice but to go into the seething heart of humanity: the abode of a sexy single mother and her child. Mari can’t believe she found a lunatic hiding in her adopted son’s room. The arrogant man claims to not only be an elf but also Santa. Admittedly, he’s a fine specimen of male beauty. He doesn’t look anything like Old St. Nick nor does he resemble the little toy makers the North Pole is famous for. After Sanclen spirits them away to Claus Village in Antarctica, she and Sanclen trade barbs and struggle not to fall in love. But he’s running out of time to find out what lies at the heart of his case if he wants to save the young family that has come to mean so much to him. This is a short story of approx. 14,250 words and has been previously published under the title of Santa for Christmas.
