The Daxen Venn Collection
Standalone Novels by
B.A. Chapman
Dr. Elena Vance has spent her whole life being the only person in the room who always knows when something’s wrong.
She just never knew why.
Six months before her thirty-fifth birthday, the Jeffersonian’s sharpest researcher of archaic Eastern European cultures starts coming apart at the seams — finding clumps of her own hair in odd places, craving her steaks barely dead, and snarling at her own vacuum cleaner like it owes her money.
When her adoptive parents finally hand her a centuries-old letter left by the birth mother she never knew, the trail leads out of D.C., across an ocean, and up into the Carpathian Mountains — to a village that takes one look at her face, drops what it’s holding, and whispers that she’s supposed to be dead.
She’s not. And her being alive is about to start a war.
Because Elena isn’t just descended from werewolves. She’s the last daughter of a hunted bloodline — and the gift sleeping under her skin is the one thing a thousand-year-old liar has spent centuries trying to bury.
Now Elena has until midnight on her birthday to master a power she doesn't understand, survive an enemy who wants her isolated and broken, and decide whether the infuriating alpha trying to protect her is her greatest ally — or her most dangerous distraction.
The truth runs in her blood.
So does the bite.
BLOOD OF THE FOUNDING is a steamy paranormal romance for readers who like their fated mates infuriating, their best friends feral, and their werewolves served with a side of dry wit.
If you found your way here from TikTok (@DaxenVenn), congratulations — your obsession just got a book deal. Some characters get a trilogy. Daxen gets a multiverse — because one story was never going to be enough. You already know his voice. You already know you're in trouble. These standalone novels put Daxen at the center of a new story every time — new world, new leading lady, same devastatingly inconvenient man. Spice is a feature, not a footnote. Each book is its own beginning and end, no series commitment required, though your emotional attachment to the male lead is entirely non-negotiable at this point. Audiobook Fans: Yes, Daxen voices his own roles, which is either the best or worst thing possible, depending on your current life goals. Try to behave.

She was looking for gold. She found a cursed prince instead.
Arantha Teely is the best tomb-robber alive, with one rule: find the treasure, take the money, never look back. So when she's paid to loot a lost city, she doesn't ask questions — she breaks the seal and reaches for her payday.
What she gets is Balam: a six-hundred-year-old warrior-prince, cursed by a witch he wronged to serve whoever woke him. Now he's bound to a thief with a smart mouth, deathless and furious, dragged through a modern world that makes no sense — and unable to leave her side even when he'd love to throw her off a cliff.
The feeling is mutual.
But Arantha didn't just steal a prince. She stole a man who cannot die — and the people who paid her to find him want him back. A shadow organization with limitless money is hunting them, and their cleaner has never failed to erase a target.
To survive, a thief and a cursed prince will have to trust each other, outsmart a monster with a human face, and gamble everything on the one thing neither believes in: that some things are worth keeping.
A STANDALONE enemies-to-lovers romantasy with razor-sharp banter, slow-burn tension that detonates, a found family worth dying for, and a morally gray heroine who does the shoving.
