Böcker i Ruthless Villains-serien

While Audrey and Callan were busy trying to persuade the King of Metal to help them, Chancellor Quill and the rest of his parliament were already making their moves. Faced with overwhelming odds, the dark mages will have to use every trick and every scheme that they can conjure in order to stand a chance.However, one of the good things about being a dark mage is that there are no limitations. No rules. And no morals. To win this war, Callan and Audrey and the rest of their allies plan to fight dirty. Nothing is too ruthless, too wicked, when their power and freedom are on the line. The only problem is of course that dark mages are not used to working together with others, and one mistake could doom them all. Trust is scarce. Relationships barely formed are easily broken. And the entire might of Eldar, along with a Binder, awaits them on the other side of the battlefield. Can Audrey and Callan go up against them and walk away victorious? Or do ruthless villains like them simply not get a happily ever after?

The people of Eldar are stepping up their efforts to rid their beloved city state of dark mages, and they are bringing the fight into the hills. When calamity strikes, Audrey and Callan can no longer deal with the situation on their own. Forced to admit that they need help, they journey to Malgrave to find the one person who might be able to provide it.But the city of Malgrave is not for the faint of heart. A lethal dark mage rules half of the city with an iron fist, and he has no reason to help anyone with their problems. On the contrary, he enjoys wielding his power selfishly from atop his throne of metal. To make matters worse, he also has a history with Callan that ended badly.In order to win the war against Eldar, Callan and Audrey need to persuade him to help. But the deck is stacked against them from the very beginning. Can they navigate the sinful streets of Malgrave together and secure the assistance they need without getting swept away by Callan's blood-soaked past?

The war between the dark mages has been settled and the new power hierarchy is in place, but the people of Eldar have at last figured out that their great hero is no longer in the city. Determined to take him back, they are mustering the whole city for battle while Lance's friends race to reclaim an artifact that would leave the dark mages at a severe disadvantage.In order to prevent that from happening, Audrey and Callan have to get to the item first. However, the road to it is full of danger, and they can afford no distractions if they are to survive it. But that is easier said than done when both of them are harboring secrets from each other that would turn their world upside down. If Callan and Audrey are to succeed in this mission, they will need to depend on each other more than ever. But after all the blood and betrayal, can two heartless villains truly learn to trust one another?

After finishing their mission together, both Callan and Audrey find themselves in a position they did not expect. Their feelings towards each other have changed. And so has the power balance. While trapped in an entirely new situation, both of them will have to sort through their tangled emotions and figure out how to handle their complicated relationship.At the same time, the other dark mages are on the warpath. Some might be open to negotiating a deal, but others are preparing for an outright fight. In order to avoid a direct confrontation, Audrey and Callan have to work together to broker a tenuous peace. At least until the two of them are ready to make their own moves.Enemies are circling them like wolves, waiting for them to slip up. But the greatest danger they face is not the enraged heroes or the other dark mages. It is their feelings for each other.

The enemy of my enemy is not my friend. It is the person whose heart I want to cut out.In a world where magic is distributed equally, there are some people who refuse to share their power. Dark mages. Lethal. Selfish. And utterly without morals.Audrey Sable is one of them. As a poison mage, she can bring men to their knees with a flick of her wrist. But the man she really wants to kill will not go down so easily. Callan Blackwell is also a powerful dark mage, and he would like nothing better than to see Audrey beg for mercy at his feet. But their hatred for one another will have to wait.When the heroic champions of equality prepare to launch an attack that will wipe out the remaining dark mages, Audrey and Callan are forced to put their war on hold and instead work together. They have one chance to stop the self-righteous heroes before it is too late, but their mutual animosity is bound to get in the way of the mission. And the problem with blazing feelings like hatred is that it only takes one spark to turn it into burning passion. Audrey and Callan's temporary union is undoubtedly a dangerous one. To the world. And most of all, to their own ruthless hearts.
