Attention: This is the second volume. For the first part, please search for Doctor of Darkness 1 - Cold as Ice. Johann von Sternberg is out of the picture and now Dragan and his men have finally found the last hiding places. Everyone in the castle can breathe a sigh of relief and I can finally get back to my real work - my patients, both the human and the magical ones. And I might finally have some time to enjoy my relationship with Dragan. But that was all just bold wishful thinking on my part. Because werewolves are disappearing in America and Canada. I don't mean just a few, but entire packs have been wiped off the face of the earth. The High Council of Vampires asks Dragan and his brother to investigate. To everyone's surprise, they want me to help. After all the events in the battle against Johann and his ghouls, my secret was passed on to the powerful in this world. Including my most important secret. Dragan is by my side and I don't doubt for a moment that he won't protect me. But will he stand by our love when he has to choose between his world and me? Since Vlad also decides that he doesn't just want to be a spectator, I end up standing between so many stools. Between the love of my life, between the High Councillors of the magical world and finally - between Johann's creator and his desire to cleanse this world and only let those who are worth it from his point of view live...

Attention please! This is the First Volume. For the Second Volume please search for: Doctor of Darkness 2 - Hot as Fire - out now! - The Third and Last Volume is out in Mid 2025! Selena supposedly had it all: a career as a surgeon, money, a whole life ahead of her, far away from her own traumatic past! Until the day she was accused of murdering her own grandparents. Her reputation is destroyed. Although she is innocent and was cleared by the court - modern society does not forget. A few years later, she's working as a doctor in an emergency room for the poor and homeless, surrounded daily by the best that London's streets have to offer. Plagued by the nightmares of her past, the night shift there is all that gives her life any meaning now. At least until a man walks into her emergency room, who seems to be out of this world. This one encounter, in the middle of the night, would change her life and draw her into a world she thought only Hollywood could invent. Hired by 2 vampires and a werewolf, Selena becomes overnight the personal castle doctor for the human and supernatural inhabitants - who the lords of the castle want to be well looked after at all times. Dragan von Sternberg has searched half of London for a doctor who can look after his family and employees, before they all run away in droves. But no one can withstand the overpowering aura of him and his two closest friends. Everyone runs away in fear - except her. A beautiful, blonde doctor who seems to live like an angel in the swamp. She is not afraid, she counters and she cares. In just a few moments, Doctor Selena Darvis wins over Dragan, who, with over 800 years of life experience, is not often impressed. He wants her and soon he needs her - because unusual occurrences in the supernatural world are soon to take on greater dimensions and in the end humans and vampires are both in danger - unless everyone starts fighting!

My life is finally going well. For the first time ever, until a gun is held to my head in the middle of the day at work. Why? Apparently I'm cooking for the mafia or a drug cartel. But judging by all the men in suits, I think the former. Now I'm standing in a cellar with the rest of the waiters and kitchen staff. A guest has been poisoned and that has rightly p*ss*d off my boss. The problem - I'm the head chef and until a few minutes ago I was d*mn proud of it. My life was anything but nice or easy. But here as a private chef in Toronto, I thought, now I've made it. If only I had read the small print in my employment contract more carefully... My name is Olivia Martin, but friends call me Livie. I'm 26 years old and a professional chef. I learned my trade from my aunt, because my whole family has always been in the restaurant business. But today everything changes when a man more beautiful than day and more seductive than night enters the cellar. With him comes the root of all evil - my chocolates, which are said to contain the poison. So here I am, sinking into the green eyes of my boss, whose gun is pointed at my chest, and I can't help but wonder where I took a wrong turn in life. What I couldn't have guessed at that moment was that I wasn't going to die... And my boss wasn't going to fire me either. Vincenzo Angle saw something in my eyes the moment I lost myself in his. Something that keeps pulling us both towards each other. But he doesn't have time, because Toronto is drowning in corpses, dumped by his enemy and a purge is imminent, big enough to throw the mafia world of America and Europe into turmoil. And I'm right in the middle of it!

A hot kiss with a stranger in a taxi? Done An equally intense kiss with a random man in a club? done Do I have the phone number of one of them? Sh*t... I knew I'd forgotten something! My name is Dr Isabella Bronte and for the past two years everything in my life has been absolutely predetermined. I'm the youngest professor in any faculty and I teach Ancient and Medieval History at Cambridge University. In order to afford my life, pay off my mum's debts and cover the costs of her care home in London, I'm using my further degree in art history to certify paintings for Christie's. Because there's nothing worse for one of the world's most famous auction houses than auctioning off a counterfeit. My life is not really interesting. Kissing 2 men within 3 days would be the highlight for weeks. I don't feel guilty, because the likelihood of seeing either of them again in London, a city of millions, is close to zero. Now the summer holidays are just around the corner and I've managed to get a lucrative tutoring job - with a rich Italian family who attach great importance to secrecy and pay for it. But I could never have imagined that my temporary employers would be the two strangers who have been occupying my dreams for days now. The brothers Adriano, Lorenzo and Cesare are the heirs to the historically world-famous Medici family. I only know them as bankers, but the underworld recognises them as one of the oldest mafia families in Italy. And even though I swear to myself that it's just a simple job, our meeting will set in motion a development that neither of us had planned and could cost each of us our lives!
