OF SCIONS AND MEN by Courtney Sloan
Book One of the American Scions series
Synopsis:
Geopolitical babysitting while arresting preternatural killers,
it’s just the daily grind for Scion Rowan Brady. Brash and sarcastic, Rowan has sold her life,
her career and her very blood to the controlling paranormal ruling class of
America, all to make sure her kid brother can eat. Now she uses her powers as a
scion to kick the ass of any preternatural creature idiotic enough to break the
rules and prey upon humanity without a license. All it costs her is her freedom
and a pint or two per week to her new Master.
But juggling her job and duties becomes even tougher when she
is tasked with keeping a contingency of diplomats from Canada from getting
gnawed on. However, negotiations for an International Blood Exchange are
interrupted when bodies start showing up.
Now Rowan must rely on her talent and wit to defend the
society she despises to save the lives she’s sworn to protect. But as she
stumbles into the truth, she chances becoming a target of not only these
killers, but of her own government. With shifters, ghosts, vampires and
psychics all watching her, can she stop the killings before she is silenced?
Author Bio:
A New Orleans native, Courtney Sloan relocated to the hills
of Central Maryland after Hurricane Katrina. There she lives with her husband
and fellow author, J.P. Sloan, their son and their crazy German Shepherd pup.
Adding to her writing life, Courtney is also a professor at the local college
and enjoys learning a world of new ideas from her students as she teaches them
about writing and communicating.
Courtney’s New Orleans upbringing has left her with a love
for the macabre and a flare for the next to normal. She writes speculative
fiction with a variety of horror and sass mixed in for flavor. She loves taking
the world of politics that haunts us now, and adding the supernatural to create
a gumbo of thrills to keep you up at night.
A self-proclaimed lover of way too many fandoms, Courtney
also loves crafting. From blankets to jams to stories, it’s always better
homemade.
