Tears of the Neko
A younger brother buys his brother, the Duke and heir to the throne, a surprising gift for his brother's birthday--a young, very skittish neko slave. But Damien has no use for a personal slave. However, a bet with his two younger brothers has Damien keeping the boy at his side as a matter of pride. When attempts on his life begin, Damien discovers just how protective the cat-like human can be.

This is the story of a young neko who wasn't given the choice to become a slave. Having been captured by hunters who killed his parents and sell slaves illegally to the mines, Kayden grew up with the hunters torturing him into submission, until they finally sold him six years later to a slave market. It is here where the young neko is bought on a whim by a peer of the realm as a birthday gift--and his life begins to change.

This book contains m/m relationships and sex between men. There is also a scene of non-consent. Please do not read if any of these situations offend you.


A Dash of Neko
Kayden experiences many new things now that he's no longer a slave. See snippets of his life in this book containing 13 short stories that occur in the year between Tears of the Neko and its sequel, Blood of the Neko. Join Kayden as he learns to ride, discovers just how far to push the chef, and attends his first wedding.


Blood of the Neko
In the sequel to Tears of the Neko, Damien, the duke of Marsten must journey to the mines to deal with a problematic overseer. When his feline lover, Kayden, comes face to face with nightmares from his past, will he be strong enough to survive them, or will he fall prey to his fears and the hunters' resolve to draw the Blood of the Neko?

This is the sequel to Tears of the Neko (book 1 of the Neko series). It is best to have read that first story before reading this one. There is also a set of short stories called A Dash of Neko that precede this story as well (they happen in between the two stories). The Neko shorts are light-hearted vignettes into Kayden and Damien's lives, some of which are hinted at in the sequel. It is NOT necessary to have read them to enjoy The Blood of the Neko, however. They are simply fun, short stories involving the characters from the Neko Series.

Warnings: This book contains violence and sexual relationships between men. Please do not read if any of this bothers you.
