Three standalone and duet narrated stories. One world ruled by power, fate, and impossible bonds. Welcome to Immortal Vices and Virtues—a world where supernaturals reign, power is currency, and fate is rarely kind. This omnibus collection brings together three complete, standalone fantasy paranormal romances set within the shared Immortal Vices and Virtues universe. Each story follows a different heroine forced to confront hidden truths, dangerous legacies, and fated mates they never asked for, but can’t escape.

After years of pretending half of me doesn’t exist, hiding is no longer an option. Not because I’m ready, but when I walk into the All Hallows’ Eve ball, I have no choice in facing my past. I only went to prove a point. What I didn’t expect was him. Talon is intense, dangerously attractive, and absolutely convinced we’re fated mates. There’s just one problem… I feel nothing.

I thought when I buried Thane—literally—that the worst of my problems were over, but a decade later, and he’s still haunting me. When his father decides to finally seek retribution for his son’s death, I’m back on the run. Worse, my pack can’t protect me. Only I can take care of myself. At least that’s what I tell myself until I meet another wolf shifter. One possibly as stubborn as I’ve become.

Being told that I'm not exactly human wasn't easy to accept. Neither was spending the last year training for what was to come on my 19th birthday, but I did it anyway. Feeling certain I'm ready for my new life, I soon realize nothing could have prepared me for the reality of it. Turns out, I'm the first descendant in decades to be born from two royal fae lines, but being special isn't always a good thing. All that training I did? Not so helpful when I find out a dark fae is looking to settle an old score - with me as his target.

For the last seven years, I’d been certain of my purpose and what I desired most in this world. At least, I was until Maciah West inserted himself into my life, telling me I’m the one thing I hate most in this world: a vampire. As crazy as I find his revelation, I decide it’s better to indulge this particularly sexy vampire. All while trying to deny the way he makes me feel and the words he insists are true. It isn’t until my past finds its way back into the present that I begin to realize I no longer have a choice in believing Maciah.

I had a plan, then fate laughed in my face. Three years ago, I was banished from my home for protecting my family. I’ve had to learn to survive on my own, while also heeding my mother’s warnings. “Never let anyone know who you truly are.” Which proves almost too easy for me to do until my fated mate stumbles out of a newly opened portal.

I’ve been summoned by a king. One too lazy to get off his throne and go look for his mate. Instead, he’s requesting that all unmated females from each of the four kingdoms come to him. You know, because that’s so much easier.

Our wounds are still fresh, but I refuse to give up. Declan Black messed with the wrong shifter and I won't stop until I've made him pay for what he's done. Having the help of the witch coven we searched for brings choices I wasn't ready to make, but as I say goodbye to one family member and welcome back another, I use the rage consuming me as fuel to continue moving forward in search for retribution.

This was supposed to be an easy job. One where I took out a magic-crazed witch, got my reward, then went about my business. Except when I find my target, things get complicated quickly. Kinsley isn’t just any mark. She’s my mate. One I don’t want. Only the longer I’m with her, the more I realize that Kinsley might be telling the truth. That maybe I was lied to when I took this job because one thing I know for sure…my mate isn’t a witch. She’s the shifter heir to a house that will sooner take her life than welcome her in.

Andie. Receiving my aunt’s magic wasn’t the saving grace I hoped it would be. In fact, it was the start of a downward spiral none of us saw coming. With my energy acting out, my bond to Foster, and interest from unwelcome parties, I’m not sure how much longer I can shoulder the pressure. Foster. I thought I knew what obstacles stood in the way of finding peace with Andie, but with every step forward, we’re forced three more back. Desire fuels my perseverance. Desire to keep Andie safe, to officially make her mine, to make sure no one else has to die on her watch.

I might technically be a fae princess, but my story is no fairytale. Being told that I'm not exactly human wasn't easy to accept. Neither was spending the last year training for what was to come on my 19th birthday, but I did it anyway. Feeling certain I'm ready for my new life, I soon realize nothing could have prepared me for the reality of it. Turns out I'm the first descendant in decades to be born from two royal fae lines, but being special isn't always a good thing. All that training I did? Not so helpful when I find out a dark fae is looking to settle an old score.

A future to accept. An enemy, or two, to stake. I had a plan. One that included avenging my family and slaying as many vampires as I could in the process. Every choice, every step, they all led me closer to my vengeance. Except plans don’t always go the way we want. Especially when I have to accept that - no matter how long I put it off - I’m going to become the very thing I hate most in this world: A vampire. Though, as I find myself falling for Maciah, I realize that maybe my heritage isn’t the death sentence I first assumed.

For just a moment, I allowed myself to believe things would be okay—that I could find a way to recover from my past and move on. Except life quickly proved happily ever afters were nothing more than fantasy for me. I didn’t know who was responsible for turning our home into a bleeding inferno, but I would soon. And when I did? I’d stop at nothing to make sure they felt every whip of anguish I’d been struck with. With time running out, it was up to Maciah and me to seek vengeance. Our hearts might be shattered, but our determination is unbreakable.

There are several things I've always known growing up as the alpha's daughter. The most important ones being: My twin brother Cord was the perfect choice as successor to our father. Mostly because I wanted nothing to do with being an alpha-in-training. I had two of the best friends a girl could ever ask for: Cord and Augie. Then everything changed when my brother was murdered, and I found myself needing to prove to my father I was more than capable of finishing what Cord started.

Patience and feelings were never things I could do well. Now, as Liam grieves - and my worst fears come to light - I'm torn between being a good mate and protecting my heart the only way I know how. As more trouble surfaces, we realize Declan isn't the only shifter we should have been watching out for. With a traitor in our midst, I'm faced with more than one battle in my need for vengeance. Just as I think we've gained the upper hand, I'm kicked back down, but my adversaries should have known better. I don't give up easily and I'll do whatever it takes to protect my pack.

I risked everything to keep my best friend alive and now…I’ve not only lost my fated mate, but I’ve willingly become a prisoner. Shrouded in darkness and isolated from the world, I have all the time to consider my next moves. Yet, there are only two things I can focus on… Getting back to Cillian and making sure that at some point soon, Knox ceases to exist. Whether that’s by my hand or someone’s else’s, I don’t care. It just needs to be done.

A broken mate, a determined wolf, and a bond that can’t be broken. For six years, River has been missing. It doesn’t matter that we only knew each other for mere weeks before he disappeared. He’s my fated mate and everything I’ve done since he’s been gone has been to get him back.

Some decisions aren't meant to be easy. Raegan is back at Shadow Veil Academy, even though it's the last place she wants to be. Her heart is broken, but her rage is even more prominent as she learns just how little has been done to find Malina since she was last there. When an unexpected visitor arrives at the school, Raegan turns to her dragon side as she searches for the answers she needs to move forward. All the while, thoughts of Enzo's betrayal are never far from her mind, but no matter his reasons, she's not sure she can ever trust him again.

Sometimes patience isn't a virtue. Facing off with Malina didn't go quite how Raegan hoped, but she isn't one to give up easily. Now, she's back at school and more than eager to do whatever is necessary in order to protect those she loves most. When a team is assembled and training begins in class, Raegan and Enzo grow closer than ever, but their happily ever after isn't within their grasp just yet. As one obstacle after another appears in their path, it will take every bit of patience Raegan doesn't have in order to make it through.

Life as a guardian isn’t for the weak. For the last few decades, I’ve been working alongside my two best friends Ryland and Oliver. We’re the top guardians in Arvayta, so it should have come as no surprise when we’re summoned to complete the deadliest of tasks. Darkness has taken over the dragon territory and it’s up to the three of us to stop it. Only the fates haven’t given us much information to go off and we have no idea what we’re walking into when we enter the Otherworld.
