FREE For a Limited Time

Only the best are chosen to breed.

The rest are loaded onto carts and taken away from the encampment.  Never to be seen again.

Trinity has one week to escape into the forest and discover the fate of her kind.


Dive into the Lake of Sins and discover a world filled with human-animal hybrids where predators are friends and monsters aren't nearly as scary as those who create them.


The YA, dark fantasy series people are calling dark, gritty and too disturbing to put down.

๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ


Ooh what a strange,  scary but exciting world in this book.  
Trinity is our heroine and she has been brought up as a "producer" but is actually part "house servant" . That means she has to keep her fangs and claws hidden from the other producers.  Each year a selection of teenagers are chosen to be mated and others are put on the harvest list and taken somewhere else.  Trinity is determined to find out where that is,  and what happens.  
So begins a dangerous adventure into the wild and very scary world outside the camp.  The creatures she will meet are not like anything we have heard of before.  Her personality will change the normal behavior of some.  What she learns will amaze you.  
The start of a new series that I will certainly be following.  
I loved it,  very different.

About the Author


L. S. O’Dea grew up the youngest of seven in a family that uses teasing and tricks as an indication of love (or at least that’s what she tells herself).  Being five years younger than her closest sibling often made her the unwilling entertainment for her brothers and sisters.

Before she started kindergarten her brothers taught her how to spell her first and middle name—Linda Sue.  She was so proud she ran into the kitchen to tell her mother.  She stood tall and recited the letters of her name:  L-E-M-O-N   H-E-A-D.

Perhaps, she has her siblings to thank for the demons that whisper through her mind and help to create these dark and demented stories.

Welcome to the world of Blood Courtesans.

Where Vampires are real and blood is a commodity that can give me my means of escape.
Money. Freedom. Escape. That’s my only reason for selling myself, body and blood, to Maxwell Steele, this cold and lethal being before me. 

I’ll go to any lengths to escape being a prisoner within a Wolf Pack, including offering myself as a Blood Courtesan to a powerful and deadly Vampire. First I have to escape the Pack, and my Alpha father. Will Maxwell be strong enough to protect me? I hope so: he’s my last hope for freedom and to live life as I want. I pray I’ll survive, and I pray I’ll keep my soul intact. My name is Flora and this is my story.


Excerpt:-

“Flora, that’s a beautiful name,” Maxwell stares intently at me, his eyes raking from head to toe then back again, making my feet shuffle and my heart rate explode in my chest. “I think you’ll do nicely for my time here. Remember, Flora, you are mine for the duration of my visit. All mine. After I leave you will get paid and can go on with your life however you see fit.”
His nose sniffed around my head as I stood stiffly, trying not to move a muscle. When he stepped back he frowned. “You’re not entirely human. I can smell Wolf on you.”
Shit! I hadn’t counted on him finding that snippet out this early on. I rolled my eyes. “My mum had a little liaison with a Wolf and I was the outcome. I’ve never felt Wolf, or been able to transform, or anything like that. It’s not a problem. Is it?”
I held my breath. This was it. The precise moment my future would be decided.
He seemed to take forever, the moment dragging on before he stopped behind me, leaning down and breathing into my ear. “No, not a problem.”
Jesus fucking H Christ! I swear I almost fainted. My body reacting in ways I’d only ever read about in books. My thighs quivered, my mouth watered, and hells bells and buggery! That tiny slip of silk that was masquerading as panties, suddenly seemed very moist.




MY ARC REVIEW: 

๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ



Flora MaNaughton is desperate to get away from her father and his wolf pack.  She didn't know him until her mother died,  and he claimed her.  Now he calls her names and treats her like dirt.  She needs a way to escape. 
Maxwell Steele is a vampire who has come to settle his father's estate.  The word has gone round that he will be looking for a blood courtesan while he is here. 
In the "World of the Blood Courtesans " the paranormals are known about by everyone,  so vampires can pay people to supply them with blood and other benefits.  As they are usually rich they pay very well. 
An exciting story with marvellous characters.  There is a little sex, a lot if danger and plenty of romance. 
Good fun. 


New York Times Bestselling Author, A K Michaels, Ava, was born in Scotland quite a number of years ago. She was married at a young age, and is mother to three much loved children. She lived abroad for a few years before returning to Scotland and finally taking up her dream - writing. 

She now spends her time reading - everything from Sci Fi to Crime, Erotica to Fantasy, Thrillers to Paranormal Romance. She loves spending time with her family and, of course, writing. She also loves chocolate, her German Shepherd, Luna, and Rose Wine!

She is the author of the Highland Wolf Clan series of books and several other series, Guild of Dragon Warriors, The Witch, The Wolf and the Vampire, Supernatural Enforcement Bureau, Defender's Blood, Sabrina's Vampire, The Black Rose Chronicles, together with Lori's Wolf Pack. Her books fall into the Paranormal/Urban Fantasy genre, with The Black Rose Chronicles being Dystopian with Paranormal beings in abundance. She loves writing those particular kinds of stories where she can let her imagination run wild.

She has twitter, website and a Facebook page where she loves chatting to folks.
