Witches, ghouls, and mind readers—oh my! Murder and mystery abound in this supernatural cozy novel.

Vega Bloodmire has no problem with the label “villainous witch,” though she draws the line at being called a self-centered hag. Life isn’t easy being twenty-two, drop-dead gorgeous, and the most fashionable witch in all the land—especially while working at a magical boarding school. Being young and beautiful is a curse.

A curse for everyone who underestimates her.

Vega Bloodmire’s plans for teaching at a magical boarding school go awry when she is framed for murder. Worse yet, she fears she may have revealed her darkest secret—one so awful she will be shunned by Witchkin society even if she can prove her innocence.

Vega is going to need to find the true culprit behind this crime to save her reputation—and her life.

Jonah Rowe knew that he didn’t know everything about his abilities as an 11th Percenter – a human who could access the power of their auras. But he knew enough to not believe in the myths of the Greek Gods.

Those were stories for kids. Hollywood.

Until the Sibyl came along.

Eva McRayne wanted nothing more than to get back to her Hollywood life after a senseless tragedy derailed it. So when she and her film crew went to Rome, North Carolina to film an episode for her show, Grave Messages, she had no idea that she was walking straight into a trap.

One that only Jonah Rowe could help her escape from.

Shooting stars don’t land. They’re meteors, bits of rock that burn up in the atmosphere. The meteors Lannes saw landed in the Kenned Valley and flew up into the stars. They weren’t meteors at all. They were alien spacecraft. Until he peeked over the edge of the valley, Lannes had never seen a machine that could fly or people without fur.

If the aliens had stayed in the valley, they might have been safe. But they didn’t. They assumed the locals were too primitive to be a problem.

They were wrong

Groomed from birth to be a famous singer, Kefan’s true genius lies elsewhere. Raised as a farm boy, Lannes never expected to discover invaders from space. Lenea joins her boyfriend, Kefan, and brother, Lannes, to stop the aliens from destroying her world, and becomes a hero in her own right.

Underworld meets Wimbledon

I’d much rather face my opponents on the tennis court than in a match where lives hang in the balance.

But that’s precisely the kind of game fate wants me to play.

When a teenage wolf ends up dead in the locker room of the tennis club I coach at, the Interspecies Crimes and Relations Agency becomes an unwavering fixture in my life.

They’re notorious for their ruthless ways and hidden agendas, and every werewolf with even a shred of sense would run in the other direction.

Trust me, I tried, too.

But when the Agency is the key to keeping the people I love safe…

I have to play along—and hope I won’t lose everything I’ve fought so hard to build in the process.

Including myself.

It’s the mid 2020s, and Ellie Johnson is the first woman in human history to set foot on the Moon.
In the first-in-decades expedition to the Moon, the two-person crew of the landing pod, instead of making history, crashes on Earth’s natural satellite due to a mysterious radio signal, which makes it impossible to conduct a safe landing.

The injured heroes in the damaged pod, which is certain not to find a way to fly again, must do everything in their power to survive the unfavorable conditions of the Moon’s vacuum and to solve the mystery behind the strange radio signal that not only took control of their machine during landing but also seems to be a construct of intelligence. And it’s definitely not of human origin.

Little do people know that not everything is what it seems and threats lurk in the least probable places. A war is coming. Whether we wish to take part in it or not.
