The story of Verity and the Four Horsemen continues in this thrilling and addictive REVERSE HAREM paranormal series.

Who is Vee? Where did she come from? And what is the darkness the fae can see inside her?

Xander's reaction to these questions drives a bigger wedge between the fae and the Horsemen. His move isn't popular with the others because right now they need fae help more than ever.

A bloody message and a series of murders lead to a search for a threat from the past. Instead, the Horsemen encounter something new and dangerous. The race is on to find out what the creatures are and how big a threat they are to an already chaotic world.

Vee discovers using her powers has a strange effect on her relationship with the Horsemen. Although this pulls her closer to the guys, the conflict between Vee and Xander continues. But is the greatest conflict within himself?

And as the Five search for answers, someone watches. What does he know? Can he help? Or does he have an agenda of his own?

Contains sex and strong language. For readers 18+.

The book is written in BRITISH ENGLISH with British spelling, grammar and idiom.

Assassins, ancient magic, and the mysterious Collector bring new challenges to the Horsemen. Can the five find the answers they need before it's too late?

Three humans are dead, and the search is on for the surviving member from Vee's online group. If he's alive, Seth could hold the key to who's behind the attacks - and why the group are targets. Thanks to their broken alliance with the fae, the Four Horseman and Vee must turn to others for help and are pulled deeper into the supernatural underworld. The danger the world faces is greater than they imagined, and someone is determined the Horsemen will fail.

The Four Horsemen will each do whatever it takes to protect Vee, but as Vee's relationship with the guys intensifies, so does her power. How powerful can she become and at what cost to the Four Horsemen's future?

I continue the Four Horsemen series and I think its best if you binge these books. They are pretty short and as such, sometimes it feels like not much happened. However, when I binged Hunted and Guardians back to back and treated them like 1 book, I felt I was much more invested!

We are left with one heck of a cliffhanger at the end of Guardians!! But, leading up to that, there are some important events that really help push the story forward. In book 2 I felt that some of the threads of the story were kind of lost. Hunted and Guardians brings the story back into focus. We get more info on what happened to Seth and the humans searching for conspiracies. The relationships between Vee and the guys move forward. Vee’s powers are becoming more apparent. Honestly, everything finally felt like it was moving forward.

Here are the questions I am left dying to know:
