The Blood She Betrayed
by Cheryse Durrant
Book 1 in the Heart Hunters series.

Thrust into the technology-driven Earthlands,
Shahkara must find the ancient Elnara death lantern - the only thing that can save her homeworld
from the heart-devouring Taloners.

She enlists the help of geeky billionaire Max McCalden, but soon finds that, as a half-Taloner herself, her blood demands what she knows she can't have - a human heart.

Shahkara longs for love, but as deadly enemies attack at every turn, will her lust for Max destroy them both?

Or will she find the strength to free both worlds from a threat more horrific than the demons that share her blood?

Breakaway Creek

Coming Soon from Clan Destine Press

Two city women - a century apart - find love and adventure with rugged men in the Queensland outback.

Two love stories; two parallel lives; two destinies.

Set in the 19th and 21st centuries, Heather Garside's debut novel is a passionate rural romance of love and its consequences.

Shelley and Emma are separated by time but bound by a dark secret to a place called Breakaway Creek.

Betrayed by her long-term boyfriend, Shelley Blake has fled the city to return to her home town. Her interest in a photograph of her great-great-grandparents is piqued by her family's reticence about the mystery couple, and a search for answers takes her to the cattle station Breakaway Creek.

Here she meets Luke Sherman, a man embroiled in the bitter ending of his marriage and a heart-breaking separation from his two small boys.

Shelley resists an instant attraction to Luke, as neither is ready for a new relationship.

And, while Luke struggles to reclaim his children, Shelley uncovers the truth about her ancestors, Alex and Emma.

A story of racial bigotry and a love that transcends all obstacles takes the reader back to the pioneering days of the 1890s.

Unnaturals

Unnaturals tried to kill Mason Douglas and his family.

Big mistake.

He became The Butcher, a cold relentless Hunter with
a vendetta that took him across the world.

And now, on his return home to Australia - to mend
his heart, soul and family - his destiny collides with
a millennia-old struggle between strange Gods.
Their prize is Earth. Their warriors are warring races
of Unnaturals: the Bloodells and the Darkells.

As an unlikely alliance forms between Natural and Unnatural - between the Douglas clan and
the Darkells - Mason's family grows in unexpected ways… not all of whom are human.

Sparks fly, lust inspires, and love ignores all the boundaries as the very definition of family changes.

Prepare to push your boundaries.
