BLURB
Powerful yet tormented modern warlock Quinn Fairmont must initiate the silver-eyed Cade Mairston into the world of witchfinders, Withinners, and what can happen when two men fall truly, madly, deeply in love.
THE WORLD IN SHADOW
In modern London there lurks a warlock, Quinn Fairmont. Dangerous, powerful, tortured, sharing his body with the soul of an ancient Welsh sorcerer, Quinn is never alone—and never wholly himself. He fights against all those who would exploit his kind. He takes pleasure where he can find it.
In the forest of Hampstead Heath, Quinn’s hometown, Cade Mairston appears to him like a waking dream. Lithe, lean and silver-eyed, he evokes feelings in Quinn unlike any other: lust with true affection, immediate and shocking. Cade is clearly more than he seems. And yet, if a man of the world, Cade is innocent. He knows nothing of warlocks, witchfinders or Withinners. He knows nothing of what he is, what he might be, or what he might feel. For him, the story is just beginning. Magyck, peril and passion await.

Exclusive Excerpt:
Quinn’s spine tingled. “Why would someone
want to pull you under? Do you think it was someone pulling a prank? Another
swimmer, perhaps?”
Cade gazed at him, his breathing slowing
down and his eyes meeting Quinn’s. “I heard voices down there. Whatever it was
whispered something, I don’t have a bloody clue what they meant. It sounded
like ‘elli dimi zimmi’ or something like that.” Cade gazed at him in confusion.
“I heard their voices and all of a sudden I said something back, something I
can’t remember. Whatever I said made them let go and I was able to get to the
surface.” He reached out a hand and gripped Quinn’s arm. “What the hell was all
that about?”
Quinn hitched a breath, thinking that what
he’d feared had happened. Another Sprite had made contact with Cade.
Cade regarded him sombrely and his eyes
narrowed. “You know what this is, don’t you? Tell me please, what the hell just
happened to me?”
Quinn sat down on the bank, and motioned
for Cade to sit next to him. “You’re freezing and you really need to get
warmer. Here, put on your coat.” He picked up Cade’s heavy jacket and passed it
over. Cade shrugged into it, his body still shivering.
“The heath is probably one of the most
active areas for Sprites.” he said quietly. “I think one of your own kind just
tried to send you an invitation.”
Cade gazed at him open mouthed. “A Sprite?”
Quinn nodded. “These lakes are known to
have a high population of your kind. These waters are old and there’s a lot of
magyck in them.”
“They bloody well tried to drown me!” Cade
exclaimed indignantly.

BLURB
Powerful modern warlock Quinn Fairmont found ecstasy with the silver-eyed and not-quite-human Cade Mairston, but to know true happiness the pair must best both the shadow of a long-ago lover and an ancient enemy who seeks to destroy love, light and all they hold dear.
A BLINDING LIGHT
It begins with a Book of Shadows discovered by a London coven. The grimoire is as dangerous as it is rare, which is why it evokes modern-day warlock Quinn Fairmont’s desire. He collects objects of great power and beauty—like his lover, Cade Mairston.
Against all odds he and Cade found each other, but their perils have just begun. First is the ex-lover who once held Quinn in thrall. And, someone has been killing warlocks. Could it be one of his own kind? There are those too who would challenge Quinn’s power in their quest to overthrow him as Grand Master. Or is the danger something darker, something invoked inadvertently, rising from the shadows, building from the very inside of a man until it brings an end with a quick flash of light? Of the truth, the surface has only been scratched. Now Quinn and Cade must go deeper and find both answers and an end. They must learn what lurks in the hearts of men…and whether it seeks to love or destroy.
