In a world where the existence of shifters, telepaths, and all kinds of 'paras' has become common knowledge, a world where everyone is marked at birth with the name of their fated mate, Sanctuary is one of the few places where paras can be who they are without fear, and love without restraints.
Meet four of Sanctuary's fiery, flower-named ladies, and follow their journeys toward love, acceptance and freedom: Violet, Hazel, Marigold and Rose.
----------
BURNING VIOLET
No love burns hotter than a pyromancer's
For five months, Idris has languished in a government detention center for paraspeople with paranormal abilities. No more. He'd rather die trying to escape than spend one more day in this hell. Today, he's getting out, and he'll set anyone who stands in his way on fire.
It was just another mission for Violet: help her squad free paras from unjust imprisonment and get them safely to Sanctuary. However, when she's caught between her captain's orders and the sudden realization that one of these prisoners might be her mate, this phoenix needs to choose between duty and destiny.
On the run from the authorities, Idris only has one thing in mind: revenge. He doesn't mind that Violet insists on accompanying him, though after all, he's been celibate for far too long. But when he realizes why she's so interested in him, he can't run away fast enough. Even running into danger on his own is preferable to yielding to love...

SHARING HAZEL
A dragon, a lion and a fire tamer Are they men enough to share this chimera?
In a world of fated mates, Hazel doesn't have a name tattooed on her wrist like everyone else. She has three.
From childhood, she was taught that one day she'd need to choose, and when the time came she did just that, picking one mate over the other even when she loved her dragon shifter just as much as her lion.
Now the mate she left behind needs her help. His brother needs to be rescued from bigots who hate all paras. Hazel is in for the ride before she even realizes it's her third mate she's on her way to saving.
Time to choose again or is it time to break all the rules?
___
SAVING MARIGOLD
His fated mate is trapped in her own mind. Can he reach her before her dragon destroys their world?
Chris is free at last.
In Sanctuary, he can be who he is a telepath without hiding his powers.
Marigold is free too in theory.
After years of abuse, she found refuge in her own mind and remains in a comatose state.
Sanctuary's leadership asks Chris to help Marigold, but entering her mind without her consent is not something he's keen to do.
Soon, he realizes they are mates, fated to be together. His telepathic powers could be the perfect tool to help her.
But if he fails to figure out how to reach her before her dragon breaks free, Sanctuary may be in danger
___
CHASING ROSE
Who needs a fated mate? Not this phoenix girl.
Rose doesn't care about the name tattooed on her wrist since birth.
She doesn't care that there's a man called Pierre somewhere out there, maybeprobablylooking for her.
She just wants to live her life as she sees fit, without following the path 'fate' or whoever else designated for her. Besides, she's too busy running Sanctuary, this safe-haven for people with paranormal powers, to worry about romantic entanglements and a fated mate.
So when emissaries from France visit Sanctuary and one of them introduces himself as Pierre, there's only one thing this phoenix shifter wants to do: fly away.
The only question is, will Pierre allow her to flee?
