Draft:Immortal Vices & Virtues

Immortal Vices and Virtues is a series of paranormal romance books written by different authors but set in the same universe. As of 1/1/24 there are 11 books published on Kindle Unlimited with Female/Male primary relationships, and 6 with Reverse Harem plots.

The universe is set on Earth, in the 50 years after a portal to another world opened in the middle of a USA highway during peak hour. Ultimately 7 portals became known, and humans were gradually overtaken by a range of supernatural species. The notion of countries was replaced by 'Houses', which are usually populated by one type of supernatural. Each story is a standalone romance, but there are multiple Easter eggs and plot continuations to other stories in the universe.

This page gives an overview of the series and universe locations to help orientate the reader. Data included comes from a reader of the series.
