Dive into this darkly intense and steamy romantasy series from RITA(R) Award nominated author M.J. Scott...In a city where clashing magic and turbulent alliances strain a tenuous peace, life has always been treacherous. But for someone like me, a half-Fae disowned by her father, living a secret life as a thief and a spy to survive, it's become more dangerous than ever. My father's only gift to me was magic, a knack for charms and glamours that make me one of the best at stealing the secrets the city wants to keep hidden. But as the Blood Lords and Beast Kind of the Night World begin to seethe with hints of rebellion, they guard those secrets more closely than ever, pushing my skills to the limit and sending me tumbling into the path of Guy DuCaine-literal white knight-a Templar warrior whose honor is his life.The sparks of suspicion between us ignite into something far more dangerous when we are forced to work together to uncover the key to a conspiracy that could bring down the city. It's an unlikely alliance and only a fool would let herself believe that it could last.I know a holy knight could never love a spy who dances with darkness and that he will always choose his duty over someone like me. But to save a city, I might just have to sacrifice my heart...Blood Kin is the second book in the Half-Light series, a dark and steamy romantic fantasy series from RITA(R) Award nominated author M.J. Scott. It's an fast-paced forced proximity, enemies-to-lovers romance between a half-Fae thief and a Templar knight trying to save their city from danger. If you love worlds with vampires, shapeshifters, Fae and human magic, intrigue and action a la Sarah J Maas, then this is your next binge-worthy series Author's note: This series is complete but in the process of being re-released (all books will be available again by the end of October 2024). For tropes and CW, please check the author's website."... just as entertaining and immensely readable as Shadow Kin. . . . Smart, funny, dangerous, addictive, and seductive in its languorous sexuality, I can think of no better book to recommend to anyone to read this summer. I loved every single page except the last one, and that's only because it meant the story was done. For now, at least."-seattlepi.com"Blood Kin was one of those books that I really didn't want to put down...the intrigue and danger of a spy novel, intense action scenes, and a romance that evolved organically over the course of the story. . . ."-All Things Urban Fantasy"... kick-butt action, fantastic characters, romance that makes the heart beat fast, and a plot that was fast-paced all the way through. Even more so the villains are meaner, stronger, and downright fantastic-I never knew what they were going to do next. You don't want to miss out on this series."-Seeing Night Book Reviews

Dive into this darkly intense and steamy romantasy series from RITA(R) Award nominated author M.J. Scott...In a city of enchantment and perilous alliances, the divide between Fae, humans, vampire Blood Lords, and shape-shifting Beast Kind grows deeper by the day. As a metalmage, my family want me to stay safe and do as I'm told. To be a good girl. But a perfect reputation is meaningless when peace is hanging by a thread. The humans are grasping any advantage to help them prevent a war. Like the visions of the future that Fen, a half-Fae seer can show them. But to Fen, his power is torture, wild and uncontrolled. Dangerous enough that he wears iron-deadly to Fae-to quell his magic and save his sanity. Until the night we meet and discover that somehow, my magic calms his. Which might just save us all.Fen is as wild at heart as his power. Untameable. Unpredictable. Not a man a good girl should want anything to do with. But to help him-and my city-I have to touch him. And every touch makes me burn hotter than the magic I wield. I know I need to keep my head and guard my heart but playing safe won't stop a war. And as the city begins to shatter, survival might mean giving up the future I think Fen and I could share...Iron Kin is the third book in the Half-Light series, a dark and steamy romantic fantasy series from RITA(R) Award nominated author M.J. Scott. It's an intense and sexy good girl meets bad boy romance between a human metal mage and a half-Fae seer who doesn't want to save the world. If you love worlds with vampires, shapeshifters, Fae and human magic, intrigue and action a la Sarah J Maas, then this is your next binge-worthy series Author's note: This series is complete but in the process of being re-released (all books will be available again by the end of October 2024).

Two sisters born of stars. One destined to burn the world.Edith and Bethany were once celestial kin-daughters of Par, a realm twisted by war and the ambitions of gods. Fugitives from a decaying kingdom, they fled to Earth, seeking peace among mortals. But centuries apart, secrets unspoken, and the stain of a father's sins have turned sister against sister.Edith hides among humankind, her divine nature buried beneath compassion and humility. She heals. She protects. She believes redemption is possible.Bethany, cast aside and cursed with a mutation born of ancient vengeance, knows better. Her skin bears the wrath of a forgotten people. Her wings blot out the light. Her love has soured into rage, and Earth's sins now mirror the cruelty of the realm they escaped.When a horde of otherworldly creatures ravages the last outposts of the Par bloodline, the sisters are thrust into a reckoning. What was once sacred becomes profane. What was once love becomes war. And in the ashes of their father's empire, a new apocalypse begins.As the Halphobs rise to reclaim their stolen kin, and the Kelxsiar hunt through dying red skies, Edith and Bethany must confront the horror of their origins-and the truth behind the curse that turned Bethany into something monstrous.But love is not so easily extinguished. And even among ruin, some flames still burn.EXCERPT"You knew, didn't you?" Kore snarled, her voice dripping venom as she pressed Edith's face into the cratered earth, black wings spread wide with wrath."Not until recently-" Edith groaned. "I swear it."Kore's eyes pulsed with crimson light. "You brought a Nerl to our home. You let the curse walk through our door."A silence fell, and for a moment, only the wind dared to speak. Then Kore whispered, "I'll finish what Father began."Cataclysm Kin is a dark fantasy epic drenched in cosmic horror, sisterhood, betrayal, and war.

AIDS has devastated communities across southern Africa. In Lesotho, where a quarter of adults are infected, the wide-ranging implications of the disease have been felt in every family, disrupting key aspects of social life. In Infected Kin, Ellen Block and Will McGrath argue that AIDS is fundamentally a kinship disease, examining the ways it transcends infected individuals and seeps into kin relations and networks of care. While much AIDS scholarship has turned away from the difficult daily realities of those affected by the disease, Infected Kin uses both ethnographic scholarship and creative nonfiction to bring to life the joys and struggles of the Basotho people at the heart of the AIDS pandemic. The result is a book accessible to wide readership, yet built upon scholarship and theoretical contributions that ensure Infected Kin will remain relevant to anyone interested in anthropology, kinship, global health, and care.

Confederate Kin, Volume III, offers more information about the men and women who decided to fight on the side of the south during the War Between the States. It is a book dedicated to remembering the high cost of freedom and the sacrifices made on both sides. Confederate Kin, Volume III, allows the reader to see the individual stories and help them to preserve their stories for future generations to recall a time that America was imploding from within. Lest we forget... "Any society which suppresses the heritage of its conquered minorities, prevents their history or denies them their symbols, has sown the seeds of their own destruction." Sir William Wallace, 1281

But to others, the lost technologies could change the balance of power in the Successor Kingdoms. But the ancient cache could be much more. It could be the gateway to encountering true alien life.
