Tales of alpha angels...from four alpha authors. They soar through the night, unearthly creatures of legends and lore. Four masters of urban fantasy and paranormal romance explore the rapture of the heavens above, and the darkness below in four all-new stories of angels and guardians, and good and evil. 1 Angel's Wolf by Nalini Singh — In the spellbinding universe of the Guild Hunters, a vampire becomes obsessed with the seductive angel who rules the Louisiana territory. But in her court, all is not what it appears to be. 2 Alphas: Origins by Ilona Andrews — A woman is kidnapped into a world divided by a superhuman civil war. As the captive of an irresistibly dangerous male, she has two choices: submit and become a pawn, or take hold of her own destiny. 3 Nocturne by Sharon Shinn — Accepting a position in a secluded and whispered-about mansion, a woman soon discovers the source of its mystery: the blind, tormented angel who lives there, and whose secrets could now destroy them both. 4 Ascension by Meljean Brook — When vampires disappear from a community he's protecting, a world-weary Guardian doesn't know what evil he's hunting, but he'd rather hunt alone than accept help from his ex-lover and fellow Guardian, Radha. But Radha refuses to leave him, because she's determined not just to help him save the community...but to save him.

Glory St. Clair here, the vampire with curves, back with another installment in my always exciting life. This time demons are trying to win me over to the Dark Side, and I'm trying to get my long-time lover to forgive me for a little slip during the last book. You do remember this is number seven in this best-selling Real Vampires series, don't you? Yes, and the fun is still happening. Now I've got to mentor a fledgling or the vampire council is going to run me out of Austin. No, can't happen. I love my life, my friends, my vintage clothing shop. But this fledgling is a genius, fashion-challenged, and doesn't think she needs my guidance. Add Lucifer himself dangling the ultimate prize and well, what woman wouldn't be tempted by the offer of becoming the size six she's always dreamed of?
