If the link given above doesn't work, go to your country site, search for the book you want and then select the hardcover format.
Hardcovers are case laminate. Dust jackets aren't always an option, but they can be easily destroyed or ripped, leaving the reader with a plain matte book with no artwork. I love the idea of having the artwork printed right on the book. Because matte covers attract smudges that can be permanent or difficult to remove, these covers are glossy.

Book Announcement & Cover reveal
I love surprises.
The Crossbreed series has come to it's conclusion with Evildoer, and I love everything about how it ended. It fit the characters, the story, and still left a little mystery while tying up all the loose ends.
Yet there was one storyline that I couldn't work in for a couple of reasons: the wedding.
So without further adieu...
FOREVERMORE
Coming May 9, 2023
Raven Black’s wedding is on a collision course with disaster. A bonus novella in the USA Today bestselling Crossbreed series!
Keystone’s planning an unforgettable wedding, but there’s only one problem: the groom is missing. To top that off, the father of the bride is out of town, leaving Raven to wonder if destiny has screwed her over once again. Despite the setbacks, she’s full steam ahead—even if that means showing up at the altar alone.
Hilarious antics ensue as readers catch up with their favorite characters. A high-octane chase, a tattoo gone wrong, and a stunning surprise. Will Christian pledge his eternal love, or has the twice-burned Vampire gotten cold feet?
The series ending you’ve been waiting for.
Immortally yours.
All ebook retailers go live on May 9. Preorders are exclusive with Apple books and Smashwords. Also coming to audiobook May 9. Audio preorders will be up at a later date and added to the audiobooks section of this website.

Hardcovers & Paperbacks
The Seven series hardcovers are now available on Barnes & Noble! You can find them all here:
https://www.barnesandnoble.com/b/contributor/dannika-dark/_/N-2sd4Z1z141jf
The Amazon links are here: https://www.dannikadark.net/p/seven-series.html
The Seven Series hardcovers are a special edition with discreet covers. You can view the front cover on either Amazon or Barnes and Noble. A small graphic is included inside of the model shown on the ebook/paperbacks. The color design matches the original books. The ebooks and paperbacks will retain their original design of the models.
Seven series hardcoversAdditionally, I gave the Seven Series paperbacks a small touch-up by colorizing the spines so they stand out better on a bookshelf. You can see the originals in the background (picture below) and the new ones stacked up in front. No other changes were made other than spine enhancement.

Seven series paperbacks
Now that the Crossbreed series is complete, it's a great time to start collecting. I plan to release the hardcovers in 2023, and these covers will match the ebook/paperbacks. Readers love seeing Raven and Christian too much for me to do anything other than provide a large glossy of them both. And yes, the hardcovers are larger than the paperbacks.
Here's a look at the Crossbreed paperbacks. Evildoer will not have the watermark stripe on the cover for customer copies (that's just my proof)

Crossbreed series paperbacks
Let's not forget the Mageri series! The hardcovers match the current ebooks, which display symbols. These covers were recently updated after the series hit its 10 year anniversary. The paperbacks, however, will retain the original design with the model on the cover.

What's the reading Order?
I've had new readers ask me "Where should I begin?" and existing readers wonder the chronological order. You can always visit my READING ORDER page to see how list the books based on crossovers and twists. I keep this page updated. If you are a new reader and plan to dive in and really want to experience all the surprises as they originally happened, that's the page for you!
But I will also stress that each series can be read independently of the others. Readers won't start up one of my series and be lost because there are details dependent on another. I write both urban fantasy and paranormal romance. Both of my urban fantasies have romantic elements (Mageri moreso). They are all written in the same universe.
Here are the books grouped together in reading order for each series:
While Closer and Risk aren't directly IN the Mageri series, they are Mageri world spinoffs, so that's the order they fall in. But you won't miss anything if you skip closer or read it last. I will say that THE GIFT contains info about Simon that if you skipped RISK, you might be confused about. Trust me, RISK is worth it. You can find all my books on my BOOKS page.
Now if you are eager to experience the books the way they were originally intended, OR if you are a super fan who is curious of the order for all the books, I created this fun list:
Feel free to save these images! Just keep in mind that as new books release, they'll be out of date. The image above starts from the top row, moving left to right. If you have read all the books, then you know that you can also read THE GIFT after SHINE. But I placed it at the end of the Seven Series because if you place it before, you take away the surprise element (for new readers). It was an added bonus to tie everything up for those whose jaws dropped in the Seven Series. ;-) obviously fans can read the books in any order they want, but this list takes into consideration every crossover and twist as it was originally meant to be enjoyed.
Again, I always stress to new readers not to feel confused. Just pick whichever series interests you and dive right in! Often the crossovers and twists are realized as readers jump to a different series, and then they want to read them all over again in the order I suggested above. That's the fun is you will pick up new details and breadcrumbs with each read.
Enjoy!

How to pronounce Mageri
I've had readers wonder how MAGERI is pronounced. I made the word up when creating an organized body that ruled over all Mage, and incorporated the word Mage. If you haven't listened to any of the audiobooks (and I highly suggest you venture into audio and see what you're missing!), then this might help:
