It’s hard being a good witch when your clients want bad magic.

I’m a witch. Not a powerful witch, mind, but as Grandma liked to say, it’s all in the kindness, not the power. Grandma is gone now, but her dream of having a witch shop lives with me. So, when the opportunity to run my own shop presents itself, I move across the country to take it, no questions asked.

But maybe I should have.

The sexy local bounty hunter shifter thinks I’m up to no good, my clients keep asking me to use forbidden dark magic, and someone’s trying to sabotage my shop. Probably the same someone who reported me to the Witch Council and left a dead body in my bathtub.

Hah! Joke’s on them. As Grandma also used to say, it’s nothing a positive attitude, excellent cleaning supplies, and the complete annihilation of whoever has in it for me can’t fix.

Paraphrasing.

Join Hope in her quest to save her shop in the Urban Fantasy world of Good Bad Magic, featuring witches, shifters, demons, one sexy bounty hunter, and all kinds of magical creatures. Full of humor, banter, plenty of heart, and a slow-burn romance.

When the dedicated doctor Christopher Wilder loses his brother in the brutal crossfire of a range war, his world is irrevocably shattered. Driven by a deep-seated vow to make a difference, Christopher departs his war-torn hometown and heads to Palo Alto, determined to make a new start. Instead, what he finds is yet another town torn by conflict. And he will be thrown right in the middle of it…

His oath to heal will test the limits of his courage in ways he never anticipated…

Soon Christopher meets Fiona, the bakery owner next door, who emerges as a pivotal ally with deep ties to the ongoing feud. However, after he saves a member of one of the warring factions, Christopher is suddenly dragged into the middle of the fight and pushed towards making a tough decision-especially when he discovers the identity of the person he saved.

Each decision could tip the scales between life and death…

As the conflict escalates, Christopher and Fiona’s bond deepens, driving them to devise a bold strategy against the elusive outlaw, Sure Shot. Their combined efforts to unite a fractured town set the stage for a gripping showdown, where stakes are high, and the cost of peace looms large. Can the courage of one man and one woman overcome the shadows of rivalry to forge a new path for the town of Palo Alto?

After surviving a trauma several years back, Remy Reed relocated to a cottage on one of Maine’s most remote islands. She’s arranged her life just the way she wants it, spending her time working on her wood sculptures and soaking in the beauty of nature. It’s quiet and solitary — until the day she spots something bobbing in the ocean.

Her binoculars reveal the “something” to be a man, and he’s struggling to keep his head above water. She races out to save him and brings him into her home. He’s injured, which doesn’t detract from his handsomeness nor make him any easier to bear. He acts like a duke who’s misplaced his dukedom… expensive tastes, lazy charm, bossy ideas.

Remy would love nothing more than to return him to his people, but he has no recollection of his life prior to the moment she rescued him. Though she’s not interested in relationships other than the safe ones she’s already established, she begins to realize that he’s coming to depend on her.

Who is he? What happened that landed him in the Atlantic Ocean? And why is she drawn to him more and more as time goes by?

There’s no way to discover those answers except to walk beside him down memory lane.

In the middle of a world slowly crawling from destruction, Lyla Richards will do anything to keep those she loves safe.
The Unwelcome will do anything to make sure she fails.

In the remnants of a broken America where nothing is safe and every day is a fight to stay alive, Lyla leads a group of 200 survivors. Survival, though, just got a lot harder.

The Unwelcome have arrived, merciless, faceless, and not from this world. And the top of their kill list are the Cursed — kids between the ages of eight and eighteen. The Unwelcome don’t ask questions. They don’t listen to pleas. They hunt with one goal: total annihilation.

As the Unwelcome close in, Lyla and her children uncover a devastating secret. What started as a fight for survival has turned into something much darker. The truth behind the Cursed, the Unwelcome, and the fate of humanity is far more twisted than anyone could have imagined.

Time is running out. The line between life and death is thinner than ever. And as Lyla and her teenage sons race to uncover the truth, they realize the very foundation of reality itself might be about to break down.

The world was gravely damaged thirty-five years ago. The Unwelcome seem bent on making sure it never recovers, and that Lyla and her family don’t see tomorrow.

Discover the remarkable history of D-Day in less than an hour… Free BONUS Inside! D-Day, the 6th of June, is one of the most significant dates in the calendar. The twentieth century’s fate hung in the balance, as Nazi Germany had marched across Europe, bringing the blitzkrieg, the Holocaust, and the mad dreams of Adolf Hitler across the bloodied landscape of Europe. France had fallen, and until the Americans joined the battle in December 1941, the balance of power was securely in the hands of the Third Reich. But even as the Allied forces joined together under the leadership of Supreme Allied Commander General Dwight D. Eisenhower, Germany continued to win battles. In order for the Nazis to be stopped, the Allies had to invade occupied Europe. And invade they did, launching the most massive amphibious landing the world had ever seen. The pantheon of heroes of the Normandy invasion includes soldiers who are unknown except for the crosses that bear their names in the cemeteries where they were buried, but all, those who died and those who survived, played their part in the liberation of Europe.

In Shaker Heights, a placid, progressive suburb of Cleveland, everything is planned — from the layout of the winding roads, to the colors of the houses, to the successful lives its residents will go on to lead. And no one embodies this spirit more than Elena Richardson, whose guiding principle is playing by the rules.

Enter Mia Warren — an enigmatic artist and single mother — who arrives in this idyllic bubble with her teenaged daughter Pearl, and rents a house from the Richardsons. Soon Mia and Pearl become more than tenants: all four Richardson children are drawn to the mother-daughter pair. But Mia carries with her a mysterious past and a disregard for the status quo that threatens to upend this carefully ordered community.

When old family friends of the Richardsons attempt to adopt a Chinese-American baby, a custody battle erupts that dramatically divides the town — and puts Mia and Elena on opposing sides. Suspicious of Mia and her motives, Elena is determined to uncover the secrets in Mia’s past. But her obsession will come at unexpected and devastating costs.

Little Fires Everywhere explores the weight of secrets, the nature of art and identity, and the ferocious pull of motherhood — and the danger of believing that following the rules can avert disaster.

A talking cat, a boy genius, missing people, and an untrained Intern for Death. What could possibly go wrong?
Did that really happen?

There’s no way Death offered me a job. I’m a musician that makes her living as a waitress, with absolutely no training in the supernatural world. This is all a very bad dream.

But Bob has been kidnapped, and I can’t possibly lose the only friend I have.

Bob, you’d better be alive. Because if I just gave my soul to Death for nothing, I will personally kill you. Not to mention, it seems Death’s Interns have fairly short life expectancies.

God, don’t let me die.

* Death’s Intern is book one in the humorous Urban Fantasy Series The Intern Diaries. Isis Black is thrown into a supernatural world she didn’t know existed, and learns the hard way the Horsemen are real. Her world will never be the same.
