FAQs
Q: What is the Watchers and Warriors series about? A: The Watchers and Warriors series is a paranormal romance inspired by the Book of Enoch and fallen angel mythology. According to ancient lore, two hundred angels called the Watchers were sent to observe humanity, but fell from grace by taking human lovers and teaching forbidden knowledge. They created the Nephilim, a powerful hybrid race of giants. As punishment, the Watchers were cursed to roam Earth for seventy generations while awaiting judgment. Ines Gray builds on this myth by weaving global mythology and the supernatural into a richly layered world of fallen angels, Nephilim warriors, forbidden romance, and cultural fusion. Perfect for readers who love angel romance, mythology-based fantasy, and epic fated mates worldbuilding with spice.
Q: What is the recommended reading order for the Watchers and Warriors series? A: Readers can begin the Watchers and Warriors series with books one and two, which function as a loose duology and focus on two central couples. The remaining books are standalones within an interconnected series, allowing each story to be enjoyed on its own while contributing to a larger supernatural arc. Readers may also choose to start with book three, Angel's Salvation (releasing May 2026), where the action, tension, and overarching stakes are ramped up. While the series is best experienced in publication order, Gray’s interconnected worlds feature crossover characters and shared timelines across all three of her series. For that reason, she provides a Best Reading Order on her website to help readers navigate the broader supernatural universe. As the Nightshade Shifters series (launching June 2026) and the Wicked Immortals series (launching in 2027) are released, readers will be able to mix and match entry points. All future books are designed as standalone paranormal romance stories set within a shared, interconnected supernatural world.
Q: How spicy are Ines Gray's books? A: Readers typically rate Ines Gray’s books three to four chili peppers on the romance spice scale. The love scenes are open-door, with varying lengths, dialogue, and internal character thoughts that deepen emotional connection and move the story forward. The spice is explicit, often bordering on erotica, but it is woven into the plot and character development rather than existing purely for shock value. Ines Gray’s books are written for mature readers only and are best suited for those who enjoy high-heat paranormal romance with strong emotional and supernatural stakes. The heat level is similar to that of books by Kresley Cole or Larissa Ione.
Q: What is the Nightshade Shifters series about? A: The Nightshade Shifters series is a spicy paranormal romance featuring shifters, witches, warlocks, and immortals. This spin-off follows shifter pilots who seek refuge with Nightshade Charters, a witness protection program for supernatural beings. The first book, Kiss of the Raven Witch, releases in June 2026. Each book is a standalone romance set in an interconnected supernatural world with fantasy portal travel, mystical realms, and dangerous hellplanes. Perfect for readers who love steamy shifter and witch romance, found family, and dark fantasy worldbuilding.
Q: Why are Ines Gray's books unique? A: Gray's supernatural lore begins with the story of the Watchers and the Nephilim in the Book of Enoch and expands into a richly blended framework. Egyptian gods rule humans and paranormal figures like angels, demons, vampires, witches, and shifters, creating a world where ancient deities and modern supernaturals collide. The series draws from global mythology. For example, Swiss sylphs, Persian manticores, and hellhounds descended from the Akkadian Rabisu make appearances. Her characters are culturally diverse. And as the series progresses, the mythology and cultural fusion deepen. Gray also weaves in urban fantasy elements, such as gritty suspense and atmospheric mystery. Characters travel through portal fantasy realms, including the hellplane Tartarus. The supernatural world expands into an ever-shifting landscape where gods, monsters, love, and fate collide. Nearly anything can happen. Perfect for readers who love mythology-inspired fantasy, portal fantasy, and expanding, but easy-to-follow, paranormal worldbuilding.
Q: Where can I buy Ines Gray's books? A: Ines Gray’s books are available worldwide. EBooks can be purchased on Amazon and are also available to borrow through Kindle Unlimited in supported regions. Physical editions are available internationally through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Waterstones, and select retailers, depending on location. Audiobook editions are coming. Readers can click “Books” in the main menu on Gray’s website to access individual book pages, where all current retailer links and buy buttons are listed in one place for each book.
