by

MORGAN BRICE

Series Blurb

Seth is used to risking his neck. He never intended to risk his heart.

Seth Tanner swore to avenge his brother’s death. But when his quest for vengeance brings him to Richmond to stop a dark coven’s next ritual murder, he’s hell-bent on keeping Jackson Evan Malone from becoming the warlocks’ next victim. He just didn’t expect to fall in love with the man he’s sworn to protect.

Then Seth and Evan go on the road together to hunt the rest of the dark coven and stop a century-long cycle of murder and magic.

Each book is a complete story and provides enough background information that a new reader won’t be lost, but the situations and romance evolves as the series moves forward.

Pairing: MM

Tense/POV: Third person, past tense, alternating POV.

Genres: Romance, paranormal romance, supernatural, urban fantasy

The killer knows they’re coming for him. Can Seth and Evan save the next victim and shut down the dark witch, even when they’re cursed?

Blurb 

Seth Tanner and Evan Malone head to Savannah, GA, to hunt the seventh of the coven members responsible for the death of Seth’s brother and so many other victims over the past hundred years.

Seth and Evan fell in love when Seth rescued Evan from one of the dark witches, and they went on the road together to stop the murders. Their relationship is new and intense, growing deeper with the danger, giving them both a reason to survive and gain vengeance.

Sterling Vernon is a prominent restaurateur with a thriving array of businesses, and he’s also the seventh witch-disciple with a new victim in his sights. His reputation and wealth protect him, and his dark magic enables him to evade consequences. Vernon needs to work his ritual to replenish his power soon, and that requires a new sacrifice.

Paxton Miller is Vernon’s next intended victim. When Vernon puts a killing curse on Evan to force a confrontation with Seth, it’s going to take all of Seth’s courage and cleverness, as well as help from their friends with supernatural abilities, to save Evan and Paxton and stop Vernon once and for all.

Cursed is an adrenaline-packed supernatural thrill ride with plenty of paranormal suspense, hurt/comfort, hot nights, found family, deadly magic, immortal witches, determined hunters, haunted places, creepy ghosts, spooky chills, and sexy thrills, and features an evolving, established romantic relationship with all the feels.

Excerpt from Cursed

“I have waited long enough. Avenge me!” The furious ghost sent a frigid wind through the small parlor, sweeping papers from the desk and swaying the curtains. The candle in the middle of the séance table guttered but didn’t go out.

“That’s why we’re here.” Seth Tanner had never considered himself a ghost whisperer, but recent situations dealing with angry spirits made him wish for those skills. “We want to stop the man who killed you.”

“He took everything from me!”

The spirit of Rod Jennings looked like a tough stevedore in his middle years with a fringe of gray hair around his trucker cap and a muscular body gone soft in the middle.

Seth looked at Alicia Peters, the medium, and saw the strain in her face. Evan Malone, the third person at the séance table, squeezed Seth’s hand as a warning to wrap up the conversation.The ghost made himself heard because Alicia lent him enough energy to speak aloud. Seth knew that meant their time was short because she couldn’t sustain that for long.

“Who killed you?” Seth needed to hear his suspicion confirmed by the killer’s victim.

“Sterling Vernon,” the ghost spat, loathing clear in his expression. “I worked on the docks, and I saw what was inside one of his refrigerated shipping crates. There were body parts—not normal butchered cuts of meat. Except, they didn’t look like they came from people or farm animals. I swear they were monster meat.”

“And he killed you because of what you saw?”

“I didn’t know he was behind me. He said something witchy, my heart stopped, and I fell down, dead,” Rod replied. “I had a life. A family. That bastard took everything. I want revenge.”

Seth could sympathize. He had lost his parents and younger brother to one of Vernon’s fellow witches.

Rod’s body had been returned from Savannah to be buried in Charleston, making it possible for Alicia to contact his ghost. That was one of many reasons Seth and Evan had stopped in Charleston on their way to deal with the Savannah witch disciple.

“Is there anything else you can tell us about Vernon that would help us stop him?” Seth asked.

“He got regular shipments of cold crates like that, so if they all had monster meat, he must be doing something with it,” the ghost replied

“Do the crates still arrive on schedule?”

“Yeah. Nothing changed—except that I’m dead.”

“Alicia can help you pass over if you want to go,” Seth offered the irate spirit.

“Not until I’ve seen that son of a bitch get what’s coming to him,” Rod’s ghost snarled. “You need help nailing his ass to the wall? I’m your man.”

“Rest now,” Alicia said, and murmured an incantation to release the ghost, who winked out of sight.

She slumped and let go of  their hands when the spirit departed. Seth moved to help Alicia lie on the divan while Evan fetched the sports drink and candy bar they had set out to help replenish her energy after the working.

Seth stood a few inches over six feet tall with dark blond hair, chocolate-brown eyes, and an athletic build. Evan, his partner, was just as tall, but he had chestnut hair and hazel eyes.

“We’ve had witch-disciples selling pharmaceuticals for supernatural creatures and warlocks trafficking shifters and psychics, but monster meat is a new one,” Seth said as he and Evan found chairs nearby.

“What do you think it’s for?” Evan asked. “Rituals? Spell components? Aphrodisiacs?”

“I don’t think I want to know—but we need to find out anyhow,” Seth replied. “Sterling Vernon’s one of the stranger disciples—and that’s saying something.” He paused and was quiet for a moment before Evan spoke.

“What’s on your mind?”

“Just thinking about Jesse,” Seth admitted. “Like always.”

A few years ago, Seth and his younger brother, Jesse, had camped out near a haunted bridge on a lark. They intended to spend the night doing silly videos for social media, drinking beer, and hanging out. A mysterious force attacked them, leaving Seth unconscious and killing Jesse. Then his parents died in a suspicious wreck, and the house burned, leaving Seth with a pickup truck, his parents’ fifth-wheeler, and the black Hayabusa motorcycle he had bought when he got out of the Army.

No one believed Seth that the causes were supernatural, but obsessive research led to the unlikely truth: Jesse had been a sacrifice for a dark witch in a ritual cycle going back over one hundred years.

“I’m still amazed that for a whole century, no one else noticed the pattern with the deaths,” Evan said.

“Cops are trained to look for human patterns, not supernatural ones,” Seth pointed out. “What doesn’t make sense, they ignore as impossible. And don’t forget—my parents never mentioned the deaths that happened in my own family. They never recognized the pattern, either.”

A century ago, a sheriff’s posse hunted and killed Rhyfel Gremory, a powerful warlock. His devoted witch-disciples stalked and murdered the sheriff and his deputies, and used spell work to create a bond to their dead master’s spirit, requiring the murder of the eldest male of each of the posse’s families. In Jesse’s case, the warlock accidentally chose the wrong brother, leaving Seth guilt-ridden as well as bent on revenge.

Seth set out to hunt down the Gremory’s disciples and stop the carnage, trying to save other families from the heartbreak he had known. He never expected to fall in love with the coven’s next intended victim—Evan. Together, they dispatched that warlock, started hunting the rest of Gremory’s coven together, and became partners in every way in the process.

    Welcome to My World
    Elizabeth Noble

    Mystery, action, chills, and thrills spiced with romance and desire. ELIZABETH NOBLE lives by the adage "I can't not write." She doesn't remember a time when she didn't make up stories and eventually she learned how to put words on a page. Those words turned into books and fan fiction that turned into a genuine love of M/M fiction. A part of every day is spent living in worlds she created that are filled with intrigue and espionage. She has a real love for a good mystery complete with murder and twisty plots as well as all things sci-fi, futuristic, and supernatural.

    When she's not chronicling the adventures of her many characters, Elizabeth is a veterinary nurse living in her native Cleveland, Ohio. She has three grown children and now happily shares her little, brick house with two spunky Cardigan Welsh Corgis and their feline sidekicks. Elizabeth is a fan of baseball, basketball (go Cavs and Cleveland Guardians!) and gardening. She can often be found working in her 'outside office' listening to classic rock and plotter her next novel waiting for it to be dark enough to gaze at the stars.

    Elizabeth has received a number of amateur writing awards. Since being published, several of her novels have received Honorable Mentions in the Rainbow Awards. Jewel Cave was a runner-up in the Gay Mystery/Thriller category in the 2015 Rainbow Awards. Ringed Love was a winner in the Gay Fantasy Romance category of the 2016 Rainbow Awards.
