Forty-something Annette Osmund always knew she was psychic. She's not, but that didn't stop her from giving those non-existent abilities her all. What she is, however, is a very powerful witch who has just inherited magics she never dreamed possible.
Starting over in a new town with her BFF has been an adventure. Defiance's status as a powerful type of witch called a charmling has kept Annette busy. But while Deph, a seeker, is still learning to use her magics, to control the power at her fingertips, Annette is overcome with powers of her own. Turns out, her being besties with Deph was not an accident. They were drawn to each other even before their powers emerged, and Annette learns she is also a charmling, a healer, and an alchemist. But what does that even mean?
Fortunately, there's one way to find out. She consults the house they're living in. Or, more to the point, the delicious entity haunting the house. Because, like her, he was once an alchemist. Maybe he will have the answers she so desperately seeks before she kills someone. The fact that he was once a stunning specimen of masculinity has nothing whatsoever to do with her desire to learn from a man who may or may not have been a powerful warlock.
The greatest devastation in history. A secret that will alter humanity forever. Today, the true fight for survival begins.
Deep within the remnants of the United States, Lyla Richards oversees a camp of two hundred survivors. In a world where living is an everyday struggle and only through banding together can people survive, the arrival of the Unwelcome only made her job harder.
Riley Quinn and Miles Jones have been raised by Lyla for the last five years. They are also one of the cursed: the children between the ages of thirteen and eighteen whom the Unwelcome kill on sight. No questions, no pleas, just death.
Protecting one another and the people of their camp is ingrained in all of them. But now, each of them faces increased danger as the reason why the cursed have been targeted by the Unwelcome slowly comes to light.
And that truth will shock them to their core.
Now time is running out. Not just for the cursed, who are being hunted down by the Unwelcome. Not just for Lyla and her family who will face their greatest challenge yet but for all of humanity.
The world changed radically thirty-five years ago. But today, humanity's very existence is on the line. And the fight has begun that will ensure its future . . . or its annihilation.
High-powered attorney Olivia Murray faces the biggest test of her career when she is assigned to represent Astral Tech, a New Age tech company, in a lawsuit filed by its biggest competitor. While Olivia is accustomed to hard fights in the courtroom, she arrives in Windy Ridge and discovers there is much more to this case than the legal claims-forces of darkness are at work.
Windy Ridge quickly turns from quiet Chicago suburb to spiritual battleground, and Olivia must rely on her faith to defend against legal and spiritual attacks. Although they are enemies in the courtroom, Olivia finds a friend and unlikely ally in opposing counsel, Grant Baxter. Once a skeptic about faith, he ultimately comes to her aid when she needs it most.
The battle between evil forces heats up in and out of the courtroom, pushing Olivia to the breaking point. Will she be able to help good triumph over evil, or will the town of Windy Ridge be torn apart?
THE FATE OF HUMANITY COMES DOWN TO ONE LAST FIGHT . . .
The odds are stacked against Lyla Richards as the final battle looms. The Naku underestimated her before, they won't do that again. They will throw everything in their power at her to keep her from retrieving Miles.
But they don't understand human emotions. They don't understand a mother's love and how far she will go to get her son back.
And as one last secret is exposed, Lyla will have to choose humanity's fate. Because her decision can lead humanity to their ultimate success . . . or their complete domination.
Jane Darrowfield is a year into her retirement, and she's already traveled and planted a garden. She's organized her photos, her recipes, and her spices. The statistics suggest she has at least a few more decades ahead of her, so she better find something to do . . .
After Jane helps a friend with a sticky personal problem, word starts to spread around her bridge club-and then around all of West Cambridge, Massachusetts-that she's the go-to girl for situations that need discreet fixing. Soon she has her first paid assignment-the director of a fifty-five-and-over condo community needs her to de-escalate hostilities among the residents. As Jane discovers after moving in for her undercover assignment, the mature set can be as immature as any high schoolers, and war is breaking out between cliques.
It seems she might make some progress-until one of the aging 'popular kids' is bludgeoned to death with a golf club. And though the automatic sprinklers have washed away much of the evidence, Jane's on course to find out whodunit . . .
It'll take two minds to solve this mystery . . .
Commander Tanis Richards has finally come into port after a seven month tour on the edge of Jovian space, and she's looking forward to some much deserved shore leave. But Tanis's commanding officer has other things in mind for her.
Enfield Technologies has developed a new technique to pair enhanced L2 humans with AIs, and the military wants Tanis to undergo the procedure. Though she feared the worst, after meeting Darla, Tanis realizes that having an AI-especially a fabulously wealthy one-is better than she'd ever imagined. Darla foots the bill for Tanis to enjoy her convalescence at The Grand Eire, Vesta's most luxurious resort.
Swimming in the infinity pool with a stunning view of space is just what the doctor ordered, except it will be far from a restful vacation. Everything starts to go downhill when Tanis sees someone who should be nowhere near the resort-largely because Tanis had killed him a week ago.
Tanis is thrust into a mysterious conspiracy that could bring down the Federation, but when she gets to the bottom of it, what she finds is . . . none other than herself.
Someone just killed Tanis Richards and replaced her with an Infiltrator Chameleon.
While finally getting some much-needed shore leave on Mars, Tanis gets a message from Harm Ellis with instructions to go to Ceres and hunt for a missing operative . . . except she never makes it.
At least, that's what she'd like her would-be killers to think.
With Darla's help, Tanis goes deep undercover, tracking the Infiltrator Chameleon from world to world, only to discover that it intends to kill a head of state in her name.
Now Tanis must race against the clock to keep from becoming the most wanted criminal in the Sol System.
No one expects their happily-ever-after to end at forty-but here I am one Prince Charming short of a fairytale.
Living back at Mom's place with her and Gram is not how this ex district attorney intended to start the next chapter of her life, but I shouldn't be surprised it's where I ended up.
You see, my family is cursed. Literally.
At least that's what both Gram and Mom claim. I've never given much thought to their ridiculous superstitions, but when three local patrons from my mom's occult shop end up dead, even I'm a bit unnerved.
So, I decide to dive right into the crazy headfirst. And what I thought would be the end of my journey . . . may only be the beginning.
I thought my life was over at forty. Turns out, it had only just begun . . .
There's nothing like experiencing delayed 'magical-puberty' at midlife, but that's where I am. One world-altering secret revealed and my safety bubble snapped into thin air.
Discovering I'm the next descendant in a long line of witches was eventful enough, but it's nothing compared to finding out that I'm also the only half-fae-hybrid in existence.
At least it got my mind off my divorce.
Now, with my newfound abilities, the impossible seems possible and the world around me has come to life in ways I never imagined.
But with every new blessing, there comes a curse. The Fae don't like me. The Hunter's Council is searching for me. And my sometimes-enemy, sometimes-crush, Hunter, has disappeared.
I'm not sure I'm ready for what's coming, but I'll be damned if I let the next chapter in my life, be a short one.
Born to die and be born again, Gell the Jellyfae must discover her strange connection to the horrible monsters called humans, that speak with words she understands, but seem to want nothing but her death. Driven by a desire for safety and freedom, she ventures forth to Tread the Sky, and finds more worlds than one.
I knew hot flashes were supposed to be hot, but I didn't expect flames.
One day I'm in anger management, normalizing the cordial hate between me and my husband.
The next, we're divorced and he has taken both our house and the business we built together. I'm forty years old and living above our empty restaurant, plotting my next move.
And then the world around starts lighting up-literally catching on fire. I'm starting to think my defining characteristic may not be my snark or my cupcake-baking prowess, but spontaneous combustion.
I'm done suppressing my anger. I'm done playing by other people's rules. Ready to take the reins on my destiny, I'm making the choices I used to be too afraid to make. Like my favorite cast iron skillet, women get better with age. And at forty, I know exactly who I am and what I want.
I'll embrace the fire and the fury. This is my life, and I'm in control.
