"A town founded by witches and governed by werewolves: All three books in New York Times bestselling author Lauren Dane's Diablo Lake series, available together for the first time!
Moon Struck
Three years ago, Katie Faith Grady left Diablo Lake, heartbroken and humiliated by a man who didn't deserve her in the first place. Her return-to help run her family's soda fountain while her dad recovers from a heart attack-awakens the powerful magic that is her birthright. It also puts her directly in the path of a certain werewolf she's never been able to forget.
Deputy Jace Dooley is a lot of things: alpha wolf, former bad boy, excellent mechanic. His new role of neighbor to the beautiful witch he's been in love with since forever is a welcome plot twist…but Jace's chief instinct is to protect. And a witch with as much raw power as Katie won't be claimed on anyone's terms but her own.
Protected
The powerful witches of Diablo Lake are taking back control. No longer will they be pawns in the town's misguided power plays. Chosen to lead the charge, Aimee Benton can't possibly fall for a werewolf-especially a Pack Alpha. Problem is, Mac Pembry is as irresistible as he is infuriating.
One touch of Aimee's powerful magic and Mac immediately needs more. Not only is his witch incredibly smart, but her quiet strength and empathetic heart soothe both wolf and man. But when the Pembry pack breaks a sacred law, Aimee shuts him out. This time the wolves have gone too far. A war is brewing in Diablo Lake, and the balance of magic that sustains the town might be lost forever…
Awakened
Ruby Thorne can't think of a better time of year to come back for good and open the health clinic she's been planning for the last six years. This witch is exactly where she's supposed to be. So it's not much of a surprise that he comes back into her path just like he was meant to…
Damon Dooley has spent the last few years learning how to run the pack at his older brother's right hand. And yet, Ruby has returned. Bound to one another heart and soul, both committed to what's best for Diablo Lake, Ruby backs Damon as he pushes for much-needed change. But when something falls into Ruby's lap and she learns the whole, terrible truth, secrets need to be spilled. How-and by whom-becomes the only question.

"Rowan Summerwaite has unfinished business in the latest installment of the thrilling Goddess with a Blade series by New York Times bestselling author Lauren Dane.
Rowan Summerwaite is many things. She knows how to land a punch but has learned there's more than one way to solve a problem. She was once a loner, but the family she's made over the years-including her husband, Clive,the Vampire Scion of North America-mean more to her than she could have ever imagined.
And, with the gifts bestowed upon her from the Goddess Brigid growing stronger with every passing moment, she's more powerful than ever before.
It's a good thing, too, because she'll need every bit of her wits, her family, and her emerging powers as she confronts a new threat facing the Conclave of witches and the Vampire Nation. A threat that will pit Rowan and her friends against the most powerful-and dangerous-families within the magical Senate.
While Rowan Summerwaite may be many things, trusting is not usually one of them. But that's exactly what she'll need to do-trust others and, most of all, trust herself-to keep those she loves safe from harm one more time.

And she'll need help.
Genevieve Aubert, a seven-hundred-year-old witch from a powerful familial line, has become more than a formidable ally. To Rowan, she's become a friend. To Darius, a Dust Devil from the Trick, where she's now a priestess, she's the key to unlocking his magic. The pretty flower to his motorcycles and bruised knuckles.
Soon, the dangerous reality becomes clear. It isn't just wayward witches. It isn't just egotistical Vampires. What's brewing in the desert will take a witch, a Dust Devil and a human vessel to a goddess to save those they've sworn to protect.

"A Cake Sequel
An impromptu road trip makes for the honeymoon Gregori and Wren didn’t know they wanted!
Bad-boy artist Gregori Ivanov wants nothing more than to marry Wren Davis. He’s asked her before—more than once—but she insisted on waiting until she’d established her own career. Now that the time is finally right, Gregori has one hell of a celebration in mind. Restaurants, museums and NYC luxury all the way…on top of all the newlywed sex they’ll be having.
The universe, unfortunately, did not get the message. When their plane is grounded in Idaho, they’re forced to improvise a road trip to get back to Seattle instead of the romantic getaway Gregori painstakingly planned. But that they’re together is what’s important, and with giant roadside potato museums, funky galleries in towns with little more than two stoplights and some seriously great diner food—in between all the great sex—Gregori and Wren find a honeymoon as unique and memorable as their love.

"Sometimes what you find isn’t what you were searching for
Beau Petty has been searching his whole life. Searching for a place that fills all the empty spaces in him. Searching for a way to tame the restlessness. Searching for answers to the secret he’s never stopped trying to solve. What he wasn’t searching for was a woman to claim all of him, but when Cora Silvera walks back into his life, he’s ready to search out all the ways he can make her his.
Cora has spent her life as the family nurturer, taking care of others. But now she’s ready to pass that job on to someone else. It’s time to make some changes and live for herself. It’s in that moment that her former teenage crush reappears and the draw and the heat of their instant connection is like nothing either of them has experienced. He craves being around her. She accepts him, dark corners and all.
Beau thinks Cora’s had enough drama in her life. He wants to protect her from the secrets of his past, even if it means holding back the last pieces of himself. But Cora is no pushover and she means to claim all those pieces."
"The sweetest reward comes after the longest wait
Vicktor Orlov took one look at the wary gaze and slow-to-trust personality of the deliciously sexy and fascinating Rachel Dolan and knew he wanted more than just a casual friendship. But as a natural protector, he also knew bossiness and overprotective maneuvering would push her away. He’ll use every tool in his easygoing arsenal to convince her to take a chance on them.
Rachel’s flourishing new career as a tattoo artist has brought color back into a life previously damaged by violence. She knows she can trust Vic—it’s herself she’s not sure of. She doesn’t want to be caged or controlled, protected so much she has no ability to make her own choices. And damn if the man doesn’t know it.
When Vic finally drops all pretenses of “just friends” and focuses all his careful affection and irresistible seduction on her, Rachel knows she’s falling hard for the laid-back pretty-boy Russian she’s discovered has a relentlessly steel spine when it comes to her.
And she can’t resist."
"“Sexy, pulse-pounding adventure.”—Jaci Burton New York Times bestselling author on The Best Kind of Trouble
The sharpest ache comes from wanting what you think you can’t have…
Maybe Dolan has lived independent, free-spirited and unattached since leaving home at sixteen. Whiskey Sharp, Seattle’s sexy vintage-styled barbershop and whiskey bar, gave her a job—and a reason to put down roots. Cutting hair by day, losing herself drumming in a punk rock band by night, she’s got it good.
But a longtime crush that turns into a hot, edgy night with brooding and bearded Alexsei Petrov makes it a hell of a lot better.
Maybe’s blunt attitude and carnal smile hooked Alexsei from the start. Protecting people is part of his nature and Maybe is meant to be his…even if she doesn’t know it. Yet. He can’t help himself from wanting to protect and care for her.
But Maybe’s fiery independent spirit means pushing back when Alexsei goes too far. Still, he’s not afraid to do a little pushing of his own to get what he wants—her in his life, and his bed, for good. Maybe’s more intoxicating than all the liquor on his shelf…and he’s not afraid to ride the blade’s edge to bind her to him."
