How Rylee Adamson Began
Shannon Mayer, a USA Today bestselling author, crafted the Rylee Adamson series from her love of fantasy and belief in magic. Growing up in Canada, Mayer was inspired by authors like Robert Jordan and Anne Rice, fueling her desire to create darker, action-packed stories. Rylee, a character Mayer says lived in her mind for years, debuted in 2012 with Priceless, launching a saga that captivated readers with its blend of mystery and supernatural stakes.
Mayer’s vision was to write a heroine who was both powerful and human, driven by loss yet fiercely protective. The series’ inception reflects Mayer’s knack for weaving emotional depth into fantastical worlds, setting the stage for Rylee’s epic journey.
The Heart of Rylee Adamson
The series kicks off with Priceless, where Rylee, a tracker on the FBI’s wanted list, takes on a dangerous salvage to find a missing child, clashing with demons and an FBI agent, O’Shea, whose chemistry with her sizzles. Immune follows, plunging Rylee into a race against demon venom while uncovering her untapped powers. Raising Innocence sees her battling harpies and unicorns to save another child, deepening her bond with her found family. Tracker, the sixth book, amps up the stakes as Rylee faces a vampire’s blackmail and a looming war.
Spanning ten main books and several novellas, the series explores themes of resilience, loyalty, and redemption. Rylee’s world, set in a modern landscape teeming with supernatural creatures, feels vivid and immersive. Mayer’s style—fast-paced, witty, and emotionally raw—keeps readers hooked, while Rylee’s quest to find her sister adds a poignant thread that ties the series together.
The series also shines through its colorful cast, from Alex, a lovable werewolf stuck in half-form, to Milly, a witch with a complicated arc. These characters enrich the narrative, making each book a rollercoaster of action and heart.
