MIDNIGHT HUNTERS

Memory. It defines us.

But what if, one day, you woke up with no memory at all?

That's exactly what happens to college student Cole, who wakes up in a daze in a destroyed library basement, clothes badly burned but body mysteriously unscathed, with no idea of who he is or how he got there. To make matters worse, Cole quickly stumbles onto a hidden truth: that dark creatures stalk the city streets at night, kept at bay only by shadowy and sanctimonious secret organizations as dangerous as the quarry they hunt.
The only link to his past Cole can find is a past hookup, Marcus, who's as unreliable as he is horny. He gets more support from Marcus's ex Alexander, a friendly but tightly wound member of the Order of Light, an insular group of holy warriors that protect sacred sites. Then there's Cuan, the striking, athletic redhead who first runs into Cole because he "smells right", and who is a member of the Midnight Hunters, a misfit group of vigilantes with a shady leader and shadier methods that the Order of Light warns Cole to stay well away from.
Cole just wants to remember who he is and live a normal life that maybe, if he's lucky, includes spending his nights with some of these hot guys that have taken an interest in him. But as Cole uncovers more of his own true nature, his discoveries are anything but normal—and leave him caught squarely in the center of the city's conflict.
As Cole struggles to reclaim his sense of self and learn what's really going on around him, can he figure out who to trust before it's too late?

A Note from Cort About Content:

The Light and Midnight books are about queer identity and self-actualization. Characters suffer adversity, but the tone of the series is intended to be empowering, sex-positive, hopeful, and liberating. Additionally, the books interrogate the relationship between sex, spirituality, and religion, and there are many spiritual references throughout.

I believe in happy endings in every sense of the term, and so these books contain a very high level of heat: there is a great deal of suggestive language, as well as very explicit descriptions of physical bodies and of consensual sex between male partners.

In Midnight Hunters, there are some elements of the story that readers may find distressing, such as cases where characters suffer emotional abuse at the hands of their families, instances of religious aggression and discrimination, or cases in which power imbalances are misused. Care has been taken to handle topics in as sensitive a way as possible to avoid gratuitously causing suffering to either characters or the reader.
