The Crimson City Series
|
Crimson City is a six-book, multi-author series created by Liz Maverick (that's me!) for Dorchester's Love Spell line. Think battle of the species in futuristic L.A. We're talking kick-butt heroines and sexier-than-hell heroes running amok in an urban near-future with werewolves, vampires, demons, and mechs. Once again, you could just read mine since the book kicks butt as a standalone (again, this is according to only the most impartial of third parties), but why settle for just one? Buy a ticket to the West Coast and be prepared to spend some time with Crimson City (#1) and Crimson Rogue (#6) by Liz Maverick, A Taste of Crimson (#2) by Marjorie M. Liu, Through a Crimson Veil (#3) by Patti O'Shea, A Darker Crimson (#4) by Carolyn Jewel, and Seduced by Crimson (#5) by Jade Lee.

Kick-butt human heroine and super sexy mech hero try to stay in one piece in multi-species world!
From the four strata of Crimson City come rogues: vampire, werewolf, human, demon. These rebels, rakes and unsung heroes have turned their backs on the extravagant vampire skyway, the gritty werewolf underground, the iron-fisted human stronghold and the fiery power of the demon underworld. Walking a thin line between heaven and hell, they make their own rules and follow their own destinies. They they will be the ones to determine if the City flourishes or fails.
Cydney Brighton knows them well, for she too is now rogue. Having escaped hell, she’s discovered that the City is not what it once was--and neither is she. Only one man understands her, understands what it means to be someone or something beyond control. He’s ready to come out of the darkness; and part-man, part-machine, he’s willing to sacrifice almost anything to make himself whole.

From the extravagant vampire world above, to the gritty defiance of the werewolves below, the specter of darkness lives around every corner, the hope of paradise in every heart. The city knows a tentative peace, but to live in Crimson City is to balance on the edge of a knife. One woman knows better than most. She’s about to be tested, to taste true thirst. Fleur Dumont is about to meet the one man who may understand her: a tormented protector who’s lost all he loved. Theirs is one tale of many. This is...CRIMSON CITY.

An ex-convict and the prince she's had a crush on forever kick some major butt and fall in love in futuristic Australia, a penal colony now ruled in a mockery of the English Regency by opiate-using aristocrats.
Macao, 2176:
Nobody lives like this if they don't have to. But it all depends on what you're willing to do to get out. Jenny changed her mind a lot on that score. It was amazing how easily real life could mess with your standards... (more about this book!)

(This one's extra hot. Don't say I didn't warn you...) He's part man, part machine, and his life's on the line. She's the woman who must decide his fate. How would you try to figure out if a man ... was man enough?
Washington DC, 2043
"If you're Kazinsky, print here." The government rep handed her the sign-in machine, and then pushed a military-issue duffel bag toward her with his foot. Camille absently supplied her fingerprint, staring up at the robo in fascination. He waited handcuffed and silent, towering over the man at his side. The only robos she'd seen before were the ones she'd shot at from a distance during live-fire training at the academy. Trainees were taught to think of robos as targets; objects. Now, Camille couldn't imagine thinking in terms of 'it' instead of 'he.' Of course, that was just the kind of sentiment she was supposed to avoid. The robo looked like a man, but he wasn't ... was he? (more about this book!)
