Riley’s Vampire Prince
Riley McLeod has never gotten over the loss of his family to murderous Vampires, and often hides behind his sarcasm and carefree attitude. So imagine his shock when he discovers he is not only mated to one, but his mate is the Prince of the Vaucluse Coven.
When Caleb Vaucluse arrived at the Hunter Clan, he never expected to meet his mate. His joy soon turns to devastation when he learns that Riley fears him. Caleb struggles to get past Riley’s defenses and prove that they are meant to be. Unfortunately just as they come together, pride and old wounds prove hard to overcome for the pair, and threaten to tear them apart for good.
As an enemy is revealed and more questions are raised, Caleb and Riley have a choice to make. Do they keep their pride and stand alone, or stand together and embrace the love fate gave to them?

Dmitri’s Little Spitfire
Elijah Collins is ashamed. Used to hurt his friends by Potestas, he now finds it hard to even look someone in the face. Especially Dmitri, his mate. When a truth about Elijah is discovered, Potestas also find out. Now that they know his true worth, he becomes an even bigger target than before.
Dmitri Kalas has always prided himself on being calm and in control. It is his job to help protect his Clan, and most importantly his mate. But when he finds out that the people responsible for hurting his Kayan’s mate have also been abusing his mate, he becomes incensed.
Will Dmitri be able to convince his mate that he is worth love and forgiveness? Or will Elijah allow his guilt to consume him and turn himself over to the enemy in order to keep his friends safe?

His Silent Mate
Jayden McLeod is used to betrayal. After years spent at the hands of an enemy and unable to speak after his own brother was forced to suppress his voice, he struggles to connect with the people around him. Particularly his mate.
As a Wolf-Shifter/Spirit Mage hybrid, Rhys Scott is used to hiding who he really is. When Rhys learns what the Spirit element has done to his mate, he is hesitant to reveal his true self to Jayden. Like all secrets though, the truth is revealed and Rhys must prove to his mate that he is worth a second chance.
Things become more dangerous when the Clan discovers Potestas is closer than they thought, and are no longer playing by the rules. With new allies and unknown enemies, the pair must learn to trust one another and accept themselves if they stand a chance of surviving.

Jordan’s Purrfect Mate
Colton Rivers was born in captivity. Living within the walls of Potestas, he has lived with a terrible guilt for years, and after what is left of his family turns against him, he turns to the only safe harbour he knows—technology.
Jordan Foster has watched the people he cares most about find their mates, wondering when it would be his chance. So imagine his shock when he discovers his mate is none other than the arrogant little smartarse who has been causing him a world of trouble in their online war against Potestas.
Now, two opposing sides with the same goal—to take down Potestas once and for all—must come together, not just for their sake, but for the paranormal community. Can Jordan see past the attitude and snark, to the vulnerable mate beneath? And can Colton trust that Jordan won’t abandon him like everyone else has?

How the Hunter Clan came to be
A number of things inspired me to create the Hunter Clan series.
From other amazing authors, to my own imagination and research.
I had played with the idea of writing, though it took me a long time to go ahead with it. And while my first two books finished were contemporaries, I knew my true passion would be for paranormal.
I love a good wolf-shifter story as much as the next person, so I always knew that when I finally worked up the courage to write a paranormal then Wolves would be at the center. But magic…definitely a winner for me as well. Mythology has been a constant interest for me since I was a kid. I considered adapting it to a future career when I grew up…but I never imagined it would be like this. lol
The idea of elementals kicking butt along side wolves was pretty tempting. When the idea of a fifth element (Spirit) and a potential bad guy (Potestas) that was originally formed out of fear came to mind, I could already see the series forming. The Hunter Clan and its future spin-offs.
I did a lot of research on the history of the legend of wolves in mythology, which was where I came across the legend of Asena and the Ashina Clan. The story was so close to how wolf shifters could have been created that everything kind of built from there. Next came Elementals and the possibility of a fifth element that was powerful yet terrifying….which led to Potestas being formed.
History has shown the extreme groups that can be formed in fear and the damage they could unleash. So I took this very human aspect and inserted into the Hunter Clan world. Like all fanatical groups, it is nearly impossible to extinguish them once they are formed, and that was the premise for their reappearance in the series. A ghost from the past, a legend becoming real and a species who were once suppressed, finding their footing again in the world.
About Jess
Jess Buffett was born and raised in New South Wales, Australia. She married her high school sweetheart and they live on the Central Coast with their two children. Jess is a hopeless romantic who loves stories about true love that sizzle with a happy ending—which is probably a good thing given what she writes. She is a huge fan of M/M, M/F and Menage romance—anything with hunky men in all their glory, whether they be shifters, vampires, cowboys, or the boy next door. Jess is a firm believer in soul mates, happily-ever-afters, and love at first sight, but that sometimes people need a second or a third meeting for the brain to catch up.
