"The epic conclusion to the Russian Witch's Curse series is now available!
After being attacked during a study abroad program, Whitney Brooks decides to train in self-defense. She doesn’t expect to become a sharpshooting champion. She certainly doesn’t expect to be competing for the state title when the world explodes. Literally.
When a massive earthquake splits a mountain open and a black horse gallops out, nostrils trailing smoke, hooves setting the scrub brush on fire, Whitney’s as horrified as everyone else. But while other weapons experts flee, Whitney feels strangely drawn to the beast.
She’s always had a penchant for violence.
But Xolotl’s on a different level. He always chooses a human when he wakes to become his champion, and Whitney’s the only one who isn’t screaming hysterically. In fact, he’s fascinated when she tries, uselessly, to put him down. He has big plans for how he’ll use her to restore balance to the world. Because that’s his job—to bring death back to the world on a large scale. Now that he’s awake again, nothing can stop him.
Then again, he’s never met anyone like Whitney Brooks."
"Her blood holds a legacy they buried.
His holds a secret they will kill for.
When Elora abandons her life in Piatha to save her sister from their father’s violent fury, she discovers a dangerous secret through Jude, a boy in her village. The magic they fear is real, and her connection to the forbidden magical Order is a legacy she can no longer hide.
Then a steward offers them a bargain: consecration and the sight required to save her sister's life for a price. It will make them outcasts. Forbidden to ever return to Piatha.
They both want the truth. A future free from their village’s archaic beliefs. But when the magic reveals Jude to be born of mixed blood, he is condemned to death under the Order’s laws of purification.
Elora knows Jude’s heart. But will she risk her life and her sister’s to protect it?
Of Hidden Blood is a Prequel Novella for the Blessing Giver series. Start listening now."
"A broken rule. A stolen friend. A quiet faerie who must risk everything to bring her back.
Bobbin was never the kind of faerie to cause trouble. But when her best friend is kidnapped by a mysterious thief and the faerie queen refuses to help, Bobbin has no choice but to set out on her own.
With only a gabby guide and her stubborn hope, Bobbin journeys deep into tangled woods and peculiar lands, determined to find her friend. But the thief is collecting magical things—and faeries like Heddy are rare and powerful prizes.
To succeed, Bobbin must brave strange magic, unravel forgotten secrets, and discover a strength she never knew she had.
A lyrical retelling of Rumpelstiltskin, perfect for readers who love gentle magic, fierce friendship, and enduring heroines.
Great for fans of The Girl Who Drank the Moon and Tuesdays at the Castle."
"They say guardians and vampires once lived together in harmony.
But history is written by the victors…
When Aurelia is taken by the head vampire Alain, her life is bound to the whims of a cruel master, and the guardians, living in indentured servitude, can't protect her. She alone possesses a power the vampires covet, and Alain is determined to keep it for himself.
Assigned to guard her, Theo is caught between his duty to his kind and his growing feelings for her. The first true feelings he's had since being cursed.
As Aurelia begins to challenge Alain’s rule from the shadows, Theo discovers her true intentions and Aurelia gives him an impossible choice: help her spearhead the guardian exodus and betray his own, or maintain his loyalty to the darkness and lose her forever.
But for Theo there is only one objective. Keep Aurelia safe. Make Aurelia his.
Aurelia can’t give Alain her power and lose her chance to free the guardians. But as she and Theo draw closer, the lines between friend and foe begin to blur.
Aurelia has to trust someone.
But that someone is wrong."
"Breaking a horse is one thing, but can you ever truly break a villain of bad behavior?
Izzy Brooks has not always had the easiest life. Her dad died when she was young, and their entire family moved halfway across the country to work a ranch. Strangely, that turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to her.
When she doesn’t get into vet school and her boyfriend’s facing charges at work, it feels like her life’s falling apart all over again. So when she sees a horse that’s about to be put down for poor behavior, she decides to take a gamble. Maybe she can train him into something decent and earn the money she needs to help her boyfriend.
But this stallion isn’t just a mess—he acts like he’s never even been a horse before. If he wasn’t such a stunning sorrel with a perfect mane, tail, and blaze, she’d release him into the wild and walk away. But she knows what it’s like to feel like her options are limited. So when no one’s looking, she sneaks him into her trailer and runs away, determined to turn this horse’s life around and change her own fate at the same time.
What she doesn’t know is that she just stole the world’s most powerful magician, who’s only temporarily trapped in an unfamiliar horse form, and when he finally breaks free, there will be hell to pay."
"For fans of One Dark Window and A Serpent and the Wings of Night comes a dark, delicious gothic fantasy about a woman who vows to vanquish the creatures of the dark haunting their villages.
But the blood coursing through her veins holds a secret...
When Amalie stabs Theo Vallon in the heart with an ash spike, she finally proves her uncle wrong: Vampires do exist, and she will be the one to vanquish them.
When Theo attacks her alone late that night, she comes face to face with her deadly mistake. He can’t die, at least not in the way the legends proclaimed, and her life will be payment for her naivety.
Instead, Theo offers her a bargain. The truth about her bloodline for help only she can offer him.
He swears they both want the same thing. His death.
But the curse of the Shadow won’t release its claws that easily, and creatures of the dark are better known for seduction than honesty.
Amalie can’t relinquish her chance to avenge her mother’s death and rid the region of the vampire’s dark plague, but as her blood surges toward the darkness she was created to satisfy, she realizes she may have traipsed willingly into the spider’s den.
And she may not want to retreat."
"From birth, Katerina had everything. Born into a wealthy family, she received an impeccable education, and luck gave her both intelligence and beauty.
Until she screwed it all up by falling for the wrong guy.
Cursed by the same incident as Aleksandr, Grigoriy, and Alexei, when Katerina finally wakes, the world's practically unrecognizable. She also can’t use her magical powers or shift into her horse form without villainous intervention.
When Katerina discovers the information her powerful and vindictive ex has been searching for, will she use it to destroy him or regain his good opinion? The last time, she bet on the wrong horse, and she doesn’t plan to make the same mistake twice. But how can she be sure of the winner before the race is over?"
"Adriana’s stuck between a rock and a very hard, very dangerous place. It’s not the first time she’s ever been in trouble, but it is the worst.
When her twin sister calls and tells her she’s going to be killed unless Adriana surrenders herself in half an hour, she figures she doesn’t have much to lose.
But Adriana has no idea how much excitement her future holds, or whose protection she’s about to awaken.
The scrappy fighter who has vowed never to date or marry is about to meet her match in the highest horse-shifter in existence—the displaced Czar of Russia himself, Alexei Romanov."
"They were high school best friends—bonding over terrible puns while their fingers froze to their clarinets. So what if she crushed on him while he thought of her as a band friend? It was still a glorious friendship . . . until it all crumbled in a single disastrous night.
Zack Partridge broke his best friend’s heart at senior prom. He was stunned when Laura left for college, vowing never to speak to him again. But now that she’s back in town, he wants nothing more than a second chance to renew their friendship and explore the spark between them.
Laura Anderson can’t believe her bad luck. After an eight-year hiatus, how did she buy the one house in all of Crystal Creek next door to the man she wanted to avoid for at least a millennium? Even worse, he’s the PR rep assigned to launch her new flower shop. She’s determined to keep their relationship professional. No way is she giving into the temptation named Zack Partridge ever again. Nope. Not gonna happen.
She strives to keep her protective barricade intact, but Zack’s confession notes just might have the power to prune back the wall of sharp thorns and sneak past the sign labeled ‘Keep Out’. Can she find the courage to trust him again?"
"Aedra’s refuge is her curse.
After a brutal attack that left her pregnant with a mixed-blood child, Aedra fled from the laws of the Balancer enclave to protect her daughter Fina. But her quiet, protected life is shattered when the magic that once dominated their realm evaporates, and people she used to call friends seek vengeance on any members of the Order.
She must protect her daughter at all costs.
Brion, a Blessing Giver, is entrusted to suppress the rising unrest within the enclaves. Guided by Paladin (The Blessing Giver), he’s led to Aedra’s doorstep for help, only to uncover a truth that fractures his world: Fina, a mirror image of his dead older brother. He must complete his assignment, but when he finds Fina in trouble, he can’t bring himself to abandon a member of his bloodline when he’s been abandoned himself.
Aedra swore she’d never fall for a member of the Order, but when Brion saves Fina from an attack and accompanies them to confront the Balancers, the feelings that bloom within her become impossible to ignore.
But Brion doesn’t see her as anything more than a Balancer. An enemy. A threat to the bloodlines.
Then Aedra is given the salacious opportunity to keep her bloodline and Fina’s a secret from Brion and her friends. She could take everything she’s ever wanted and see peace in the realm finally realized.
Can she forsake her ties to the magic to keep the people she loves safe? Can she forsake the truth to take a love she hasn’t earned?

After Reiman’s death, Bella slips into a vipers pit by joining Gerrish and the Heralds, a group that serves the Dark Sister.
