River Road [Hardcover]

Product Description
 
Hurricane Katrina is long gone, but the preternatural storm rages on in New Orleans. New species from the Beyond moved into Louisiana after the hurricane destroyed the borders between worlds, and it falls to wizard sentinel Drusilla Jaco and her partner, Alex Warin, to keep the preternaturals peaceful and the humans unaware. But a war is brewing between two clans of Cajun merpeople in Plaquemines Parish, and down in the swamp, DJ learns, there’s more stirring than angry mermen and the threat of a were-gator.

Wizards are dying, and something — or someone — from the Beyond is poisoning the waters of the mighty Mississippi, threatening the humans who live and work along the river. DJ and Alex must figure out what unearthly source is contaminating the water and who — or what — is killing the wizards. Is it a malcontented merman, the naughty nymph, or some other critter altogether? After all, DJ’s undead suitor, the pirate Jean Lafitte, knows his way around a body or two.

Luckily, Ao's not the kind to give up easily. Thanks to some creative persistence (and Ryomei's weakening resolve), he finally gets a kiss. But one single kiss won't satisfy him for long!

Irritated by his own carnal impulses, Ryomei rejects Ao. But how will Ao react when he finds out Ryomei may have a marriage arrangement in the works?

Toru, the son of a yakuza boss, is sent into exile on a deserted island for his own protection during a gang feud.

The serious, studious Mutsumi is Toru's opposite in every way, and it doesn't take long before the sparks between them begin to fly!

As Tohru and Mutsumi continue their secret affair, Tohru realizes the more they sleep together the more he gives in to the pleasure. And not wanting his lover to play the field, Mutsumi goes out of his way to keep Tohru satisfied. Unfortunately for these two, the very last person they’d want finding out about their secret relationship does. Enraged that Mutsumi would dare lay a hand on his precious charge, Domoto kidnaps Mutsumi with bloody retribution in mind!
