"Some legends refuse to stay buried.
Merritt Vale never asked to be anyone's hero. As a shapeshifter, baker, and Guardian of Little Avalon, she's already balancing more than most. When a new Fury emerges with magic that echoes an old enemy, Merritt is called into action once again.
The rising darkness isn't just a threat to the city—it's a direct line to Merritt's hidden past.
An ancient amulet, a madwoman's journal, and whispers of a forgotten bloodline all lead her toward a truth she might not be ready to face.
To protect the people she loves, Merritt must confront secrets buried deep in Avalon's history. She'll need to fight not only monsters in the shadows but also doubts within her own heart.
Will she discover the strength to rewrite her legacy?
Or will the past devour everything she's built?"
"Magic thrives in the heart of the city . . . and so do its dangers.
Merritt Vale is the last of her kind, a Leshbolg trying to carve out a new life in Little Avalon, the paranormal haven hidden in Brooklyn. Baking by day and embracing her magic by night, she longs to belong in a world teeming with fae, werewolves, and ancient mysteries.
When an old legend resurfaces—a relic of King Arthur's time—Merritt is drawn into a tangled web of secrets and power. Friends stand by her side, yet shadows lurk in the alleys, and unseen forces plot in the dark.
The city hums with magic, but not all of it is kind.
To claim her place and protect those she loves, she must step beyond the safety of the life she's built. The path ahead is uncertain, the enemies are relentless, and the cost of failure is more than she can bear.
Will she unlock the truth of her past and wield her magic before it's too late? Or will the forces hunting her snuff out her light forever?
Dive into Bet On the Waif today and uncover the magic, mystery, and danger waiting in the shadows of New York City!"
"The last Leshbolg holds the key to a city's survival.
Merritt Vale is no ordinary paranormal creature. She keeps this power hidden from even her closest friends in Little Avalon, fearing rejection. All she wants is to belong, to build a life in this paranormal haven as the Guardian of Little Avalon and baker at Chaplin's Kitchen. When she rescues a rare echinemon named Akila, Merritt finds an unexpected companion who understands her completely.
Danger lurks in the shadows.
A dark mage named Alecto has infiltrated the deadly Boilblood assassins, led by valkyrie Ylva Blodamaekir. When Merritt becomes their target, she must face her fears and finally reveal her hidden abilities to her friends.
As Alecto's plans for destruction unfold, Merritt discovers the terrible truth: the dark entity intends to summon creatures of darkness to New York City, threatening the lives of eight million humans and paranormals alike.
Only by embracing her true nature can Merritt hope to save everyone she loves.
Will Merritt's newfound confidence and acceptance be enough to defeat the forces of darkness? Or will her revelation come too late to save the city—and herself—from Alecto's devastating power?"
