The Order of the Blade series by Stephanie Rowe
DARKNESS AWAKENED

The Calydons are a race of ancient immortals cursed with a dark side. Each Calydon is destined to meet his soul mate, to be so drawn to her that he is unable to resist bonding with her through the rituals of his race…
…but their destiny is to destroy each other and all they care about the moment their bond is complete.
Quinn Masters will stop at nothing to rescue his rogue teammate. To save his blood brother and ensure his brand of justice triumphs, Quinn will break every rule of his kind and partner with the sensuous, courageous woman destined to be his ultimate destruction.
Haunted by a brutal past, Illusionist Grace Matthews will risk everything to save her kidnapped sister, including putting her life in the sinfully capable hands of an immortal warrior whose ravaging kisses and intense passion propel her ruthlessly toward a fateful destiny she can’t afford to believe in.

After escaping from a two-year imprisonment at the hands of a madman, the only thing Lily Davenport wants is to go home and reclaim her life. Unfortunately for Lily, standing between her and that goal is a sensual, demanding protector whose dangerous seduction threatens to claim her life…and her soul.

Six hundred years ago, Elijah Ross was tortured into insanity and thrust into a mental hell that no living creature has ever survived…except him.
Now, that same evil is back, and Elijah is all that stands between it and the destruction of all of humanity, but each step he takes drags him further back into the nightmare that once consumed him.
Elijah’s only chance is Ana Matthews, whose sensual kisses and passionate fire thrust hope and light into his blackened heart and fragmented mind, but her deadly past could be the final trigger for his descent into irretrievable madness and the destruction of his soul…and humanity.

His only chance is Sarah Burns, a sensual, courageous woman fighting to save herself and her family from an ancient, brutal evil.
Sarah is on the verge of losing everything, but she can’t afford to trust Kane, who is either the key to her final destruction…or her only chance of survival.

I’m loving the idea of a gargoyle hero. Original & unique & I can totally picture them being hot & sexy,
Woops, sorry about the gargoyle question! Fixed now. That’s what I get for setting up Rafflecopter at midnight. *wink*
sounds awesome 🙂 thanks for sharing!
sounds awesome 🙂 thanks for sharing!
Since gargoyles are protective I can only imagine who alpha they’d be *sign*.
Yikes, I left the wrong question in the rafflecopter! It’s good to know you guys actually read it! It was a test… yeah, totally a test to see who’s paying attention. *grin*
I think that the question you asked for this contest is about Jess Macallen not Stephanie. I’m on Stephanie’s third book in her Order series and my heart is breaking for Elijah and Anna.
Ack, great catch! The question in the post was correct but the Rafflecopter had a remnant from another giveaway. All fixed now thanks to your heads-up! <3
I’ve only read Darkness awakened so far, and I loved it! I look forward to reading the rest of the series!
I have read every one of her books and I have to say, I LOVE her characters and her stories!!! They are filled with action, friendship, different plot arcs and plenty of sensual love scenes! The latest book about Ian though, is by far her BEST work and I highly recommend reading this series to everyone! And no, there are no gargoyles in Stephanie’s books, lol!!!
Ooo you gave the post a user score! And you caught my mistake! Extra points (cookies? =D) for you! Eagle eyes, that’s what you guys have. Thanks so much for commenting and for giving me the heads up on what I needed to fix!! <3
Thanks so much to Stephanie Rowe and Book Monster Tours for having us on the schedule! These books look STELLAR and I can’t wait to get started on them! (gargoyles or no *wink)
I am relatively new to your work, however, I love it and now hooked! I have started with the Blade series and have added all of those as well as your other series to my TBR. Thanks so much for hosting this giveaway and I am looking forward to catching up on your existing titles and new work 🙂
I’m thinking I have a new author to read! Something new and original.
I just downloaded the first book in this series. Im excited to start reading it….
I have not got into the series even though I do have one of the books on my kindle. I really would like to learn more though, and this looks like a great opportunity. sdylion(at)gmail(dot)com
What a fascinating series! The Order of the Blade is a new series for me. I will definitely be putting it on my TBR list. Love the covers.
Can’t wait to read Darkness Arisen! This series has rocked
I haven’t started the Darkness series, but I have read the Immortal series which were hilarious and I loved them and I read the Soulfire series.
My question is Ms Rowe do you have any intentions of continuing the Soulfire series?
Cheers
Would love to read these….

Love the covers. Thanks for the giveaway.
I LOVE the whole “soul-mate-destined-for-one-another” idea! I just downloaded your first book in this series from Amazon.com and I cannot wait to get started!!!
I just finished Darkness Awakened and it was awesome. Quinn was such a hard ass and Grace was just perfect for him. I fell in love with all the guys in the Order but Ian and Elijah just broke my heart.
This series sounds great!
Congrats to Jerri M. on winning her choice of ebook from Stephanie!
Thanks to everyone who came out to chat!!
