Logan Calhoun is the last full-blooded Paladin, the future leader of a race of immortal warrior angels. The heavy responsibility of continuing the Paladin line falls to him, and the last thing he should do is get involved with a human. Then fate throws Jessica Waters, a homicide detective who doesn’t believe in fate or divine intervention, into his path. Her devotion lies in her Glock and a good set of handcuffs. Like Logan, she’s a warrior for her people, and she awakens within him something he’d never thought he’d feel. But she’s also as human as they come…
Alexandra Ivy - My Lord Eternity (Immortal Rogues #2)
Seduced and cast aside by a rogue, Jocelyn Kingly survived the shameful scandal with her pride intact, as well as a new determination to save women less fortunate than she was. Her mission is aided by a well- intentioned vicar named Amadeus Fallow, whose sservices prove invaluable. Despite the fact that his presence on occasion makes her skin crawl with unease, his assistance is far preferable to the attentions of charming Lucien Valin.
Rakish and self-indulgent, Lucien is exactly the sort of man she detests, even though her overwhelming attraction proves impossible to deny. But when the local brothels are terrorized by a plague of vicious murders, Jocelyn discovers that there is more to both Amadeus and Lucien than she ever imagined—and that a mysterious amulet in her possession is at the core of their dark, unearthly secrets. Can she trust the man who claims to be her friend—or will she surrender to the man who longs to be her lover?

Hey Kaleigha,
Nightbred is part of a Trilogy called “Lord of the Darkyn”.
So it is Lord of the Darkyn, Book 2 (NOT Darkyn 9).
If you go to Lynn Viehl’s website, she lists it as Book 2. Amazon has it wrong.
Have a good day!
Thanks – I will check that out. Much appreciated.
