The Obsidian Files Collection

April 14, 2020

Infinite evil…

They were the ultimate secret weapon of the Obsidian Group, a shadowy cabal of super-rich investors determined to create a race of lethal supersoldiers. No one noticed when runaway teenagers disappeared from the streets and alleys. No one heard their screams as they endured terrifying experiments. Not all of them survived.

For those who did, Obsidian’s brain enhancements and body modifications proved spectacularly successful—but the captured teens rebelled, burning the Midlands Research Facility to the ground and vanishing.

Now, years later, they live deep under cover. They keep their incredible abilities secret, trusting only each other—knowing that their tormenters will never give up the chase.

The Obsidian Files are their stories…

Hellbent

February 3, 2020

Find out why New York Times bestseller Maya Banks hails McKenna’s books as “A non-stop thrill ride…”

He fought for her. He bled for her. Now he’ll make her his own.

Famous bad boy DJ Anton Trask stays out of other people’s business. He learned that lesson long ago and paid for it in blood. But when the stunning Fiona Garrett shows up at one of his nightclubs asking for his help, his world is thrown into chaos. He and Fiona grew up together at GodsAcre, a remote doomsday cult in the mountains. She was fifteen years old when he busted her out of that hellhole, but she’s all grown up now. Anton hates losing control, but Fiona’s sultry eyes, soft red lips and gorgeous body make his heart thud and his temperature rise…

Pursued by a ghost…

Fiona Garrett is on the run from a brutal killer that the whole world believes to be dead. She hates asking Anton for help once again—she owes him her life already—but no one else could possibly believe her. Still, Fiona is unprepared for the effect Anton has on her…his hard body, the hypnotic glitter of his dark eyes, the raw male power he exudes. He sparks a desire inside her that she’d never imagined—and she can’t control the flames.

Anton wants to leave GodsAcre and all its demons in the past, but he and Fiona have no choice but to face them head-on as danger ignites all around them. All he can do is keep her close to him.

And the closer she gets, the less he ever wants to let her go…

Hellion

January 27, 2020

Find out why New York Times bestseller Maya Banks hails McKenna’s books as “A nonstop thrill ride…”

He’s a ticking bomb…

Eric Trask is counting the days before he blasts out of Shaw’s Crossing forever. He and his brothers were raised at GodsAcre, a mysterious doomsday cult deep in the mountains. GodsAcre was destroyed years ago in a deadly fire and Eric and his brothers were the only survivors. The townspeople see them as time bombs just waiting to blow, but as soon Eric makes the money for a fresh start, he’s going to prove those bastards wrong. He’s an ex-Marine, fresh off a tour in Afghanistan, working three jobs and barely sleeping. Utterly unprepared for Demi Vaughan’s dazzling green eyes, lush pink lips and sexy curves. She’s the town princess…he’s a dangerous outcast. It was a sure recipe for disaster.

But the closer he gets to Demi, the more impossible it is to resist…

Forbidden fruit is the sweetest…

Demi Vaughan has a big plan for life post- college. A summer job at a sandwich shop back home in Shaw’s Crossing is part of that plan, so when Eric Trask, notorious bad boy with a complicated past, saunters in for lunch from the construction site next door, she tells herself he’s just eye candy. Tall, ripped, sweat-slicked, smoldering eye candy, nothing more. She knew the stories, she’d heard the rumors. Eric was damaged. Marked by violence and tragedy. He’d be the ultimate bad boyfriend, and right now she was too busy even to shop for a good one. But his hot eyes and hard body, his sensual smile and that rough, scratchy voice of his shook her resolve. After all, she was leaving this place forever. One little taste of heaven…what could it hurt?

But Shaw’s Crossing has deeper, darker secrets than Eric or Demi could begin to guess. The evil that destroyed GodsAcre is lying in wait…and it will stop at nothing to keep Eric and Demi apart…

Hellion, Book One, ends on a cliffhanger, but it leads right into Headlong, Book Two, Demi and Eric’s continuing story, dated seven years later.

The other titles in The Hellbound Brotherhood series are connected, but each book features its own couple and has its own HEA.

Headlong

January 27, 2020

They were never supposed to leave alive…Find out why New York Times bestseller Maya Banks hails McKenna’s books as “A non-stop thrill ride…”

Only one woman could tempt him to return…

Eric Trask and his brothers have turned their backs on their past. Only their beloved foster father’s funeral could drag them back to the small town of Shaw’s Crossing. Eric is haunted by the memory of GodsAcre, the doomsday cult in the mountains where they were raised and the deadly fire that destroyed it, but one memory still shines bright…Demi Vaughan. Her lush, sexy mouth, her stunning green eyes. Their hot fling seven years ago crashed and burned in the worst possible way, and she’s still mortally pissed at him…and more gorgeous than ever.

Second chances…

Demi Vaughan did her best to forget Eric Trask. They told her from the start that he was a train wreck, and she hadn’t listened. He’d broken her heart and derailed her life, and she’d be damned if she’d let him do it again, now that she’d followed her dream and opened her own restaurant. But the years that passed have only turned Eric into a more concentrated version of what he’d always been—a flint-eyed, brutally ambitious, hyper-focused alpha male hunk. Just taller. Harder. As intoxicating as hell.

Demi tries to withstand Eric’s magnetic pull, but she can’t resist the all-consuming heat between them. But an old evil still lies low in Shaw’s Crossing, and Eric’s arrival has shocked it back into life.

Now it’s not just their hearts that are in danger. It’s their lives…

The Hellbound Brotherhood series are connected. Each book features its own couple and has its own HEA except for Hellion, Book One, which features the back story of a younger Demi and Eric.
