​The Omniscients, ancient vampires who reside within the Hollow Earth, impose strict conduct for all vampires—guidelines Razvan and Bianca Torok, commanders of The Realm, have followed for centuries. When renegade vampires known as The Harvesters attack the survivors of a horrific explosion, The Realm comes to their defense. Failing to save the Crenshaws, the Toroks adopt their twin children, Celeste and Nick. 

When Nick’s rebellious ways place Celeste in danger, at the Toroks’ insistence, she seeks safety in the Midwest. As if the familial alienation isn’t enough, she’s tormented by her forbidden desire for Tristan, The Realm’s supreme warrior. With her future uncertain and her past shattered, she follows in her biological father’s footsteps and joins law enforcement.
 
As the lead investigator on several bizarre child abduction cases, Celeste soon discovers that bullets and modern weaponry are useless against these abductors. A war brewing between The Realm and The Harvesters, Celeste joins Tristan, her parents, and all of The Realm’s warriors to destroy the renegade vampires once and for all.

Following the justified killing of two men, Shannon Richards believes her worst days are behind her. Embracing the promise of a quiet life with Luke—the love of her life, her illusion is quickly shattered when news arrives of the impending war between the United States Army and the Lakota Sioux Indians in Montana. Convinced of Luke’s sense of obligation to Red Cloud, Sitting Bull, and Crazy Horse, she bids him a tearful farewell and prepares for the possibility he may never return.

Meanwhile, Sadie Thoreau—the town’s madam, who harbors a pearl-handled derringer and a dangerous secret, ignites a fire in ruggedly handsome but sullen Sheriff Lance Tucker that had long lay dormant.
​
When a Texas Ranger with a chilling secret appears in town determined to know Luke’s whereabouts, Shannon assumes her husband’s traitorous misdeeds have finally caught up to him. Upon learning barbaric soldiers have captured Luke, she hitches up her horse Sara, a Winchester rifle, and a fury hell can’t contain.

Set against the backdrop of the alluring American Frontier, with its cast of vibrant and unforgettable characters, Shannon’s Revenge: Broken Promises is a spellbinding, intoxicating story of love, loss, and loyalty.
