Hi, my name is Nikita Slater and I'm the International Bestselling author of The Queens series, Fire & Vice series, The Sanctuary series, Driven Hearts series and several standalone novels. I've loved the written word my entire life and am an avid reader, as well as a writer. I live, eat and breathe books and I'm always working on something new!
​
I live on the beautiful Canadian prairies with my son and crazy awesome dog. I have an unholy affinity for books (especially dark romance), wine, pets and anything chocolate. Despite some of the darker themes in my books (which are pure fun and fantasy), I am a staunch feminist and advocate of equal rights for all races, genders and non-gender specific persons. When I'm not writing, dreaming about writing or talking about writing, I love to help others discover a love of reading and writing through literacy and social work.

Only the strongest can survive in a hostile world ravaged by a disease that turns humans into primitives.

She is the Desert Wren, a rebel bent on providing safe passage to illegal refugees entering into her Sanctuary city. If she’s caught she’ll be executed, but the price is worth the privilege of doing what she knows is right. Except when she’s finally caught, the sentence isn’t death, it’s her freedom.

It’s the Warlord’s job to weed out the weak and sacrifice them for the good of the Sanctuary. Brutal and autocratic, he is the highest authority. The only threat to his dictatorship is a rebel faction rising up from the slums of his city. When he arrests a rebel leader, the Desert Wren, he sees his redemption. She will help him guide Sanctuary into the future. He just needs to convince his little captive that she’s better off with him than flying free.

What is the price of Sanctuary in a dying world and is it worth the sacrifice?


The Sanctuary Series

After slaking our lust in a few passionate encounters, one in the kitchen and one in the bedroom, we spend the rest of the evening making slow, sweet love to each other. We hold each other, touch and explore. He lays back on the cot outside the greenhouse, his arms behind his head and allows me to run my hands and lips over his body. I explore each ridged muscle, licking and biting a path slowly down. I enjoy the way his body tightens beneath mine as he fights with himself not to grab me. 


I settle between his thighs and take the hard length of his cock in my hands, marvelling once more at the size. He's such a large man. Not only in physical presence, but also in determination and fortitude. Despite our differences I've come to appreciate certain aspects of him and his leadership. I show my appreciation to the one part of him that wants it most, running my tongue down the side before fisting the base and wrapping my lips around the head.
