Alternate cover edition of ASIN B07JGXPG5N A ghost falling in love with a mortal? It’s just a bunch of hocus pocus… Dani So, I think my apartment is haunted. No. Really. Spooky things have been happening to me ever since I moved in last year. At first, I ignored them. Later, I got used to the idea that I shared my place with a ghost. I even called him Casper. We got along just fine. Until a sexy hunk showed up the night before Halloween and told me that his name wasn’t Casper--it was Zack. And that, on All Hallow’s Eve, certain ghosts sometimes have the power to cross over into the human world. Which he did, because he loves me. Okay then. Zack I’m in love. The only problem? She’s alive. And me? I’m kinda not. At least, I’m not on every day except for October 31st. Because on Halloween? Anything goes. I want Dani. And even if it’s only for the one night when ghosts can cross over to the living world, I’ll take what I can get. Because I love a mortal, and it’s not just hocus pocus. *** Dani Williams doesn’t believe in ghosts. But this Halloween, after a year of watching over and falling in love with his mortal houseguest, Zack Banks is ready to prove that this particular ghost might just believe in her. This sweet Halloween treat is chock full of insta-love, over-the-top Halloween magic, and enough Hocus Pocus nods to make you cackle like a sexy witch in between moaning for more. A Sarah Spade HEA guaranteed!

I’ve always known that Ryker is my fated mate. What I didn’t know? Was that he’s always known he’s mine… Ryker Wolfson. Strong. Sexy. Powerful. Irresistible. For as long as I can remember, I’ve been waiting for the Luna Ceremony that would make him my bonded mate. Though it’s not supposed to be possible, I’ve known since I was a kid that the future Alpha of the Mountainside Pack was fated to be mine. I figured my knowing had something to do with me being a rarity: a born female alpha. Turns out that I’m half right. It’s not the female part, but an alpha thing. Because Ryker? For the last eleven years, he’s known exactly who I am to him. Worse? The rejection that had me hiding out this past year was as planned as everything else he has his claws in. Ryker might’ve thought he was protecting me, but all he did was push me away—all because he forgot for a moment what I am. Omega Gem is history. Long live the Alpha of Muncie. Only I’m in a bit of trouble these days. He might’ve spent years keeping my secret for me, but it’s out now. An unforeseen betrayal in his pack has Ryker reeling, and me walking around with a big ol’ target on my back. As if dealing with my infatuated roommate wasn’t bad enough. Now I have a powerful wolf chasing after me, desperate to claim me during the next full moon. Not to mention the summons from my birth pack—and my old life. My sperm donor has discovered just how valuable I am, and since I’ve been “rejected” by Ryker, he wants me to go home for the first time since I was a pup. Yeah? Well, I want him to drop dead. And while I’m used to getting out of tougher scrapes than these, I’m beginning to see that—once again—I’m left with basically one option, and it isn’t running away. It’s Ryker. Maybe it’s time that I accept that he’s always been my mate… ** Always Her Mate is the second novel in the Claws and Fangs series. In a case of “better the devil you know”, Gem realizes that Ryker is her best chance at avoiding being forced into a mating she doesn’t want. It’s tough, though. Because while she’s always wanted him, her pride still can’t get over his rejection…

I’m a librarian. I love books. But the one I found in the depository? Yeah… there’s something off about that one—and not only because I had a hard time figuring out if I should shelve it under foreign, occult, fiction, or out of print selections. I think… I think it’s following me. Does that sound crazy? It might. With my anxiety ratcheting up to eleven after a recent rush of break-ins near my house, I’m more on guard than usual. But robbers usually steal stuff, right? They don’t snatch library books and plant them in the librarian’s home. And yet, somehow, that’s where I find the book. That’s not the only strange thing that’s happening to me. I get this feeling like I’m being followed, but when I look behind me, all I see are shadows. I swear I hear a voice calling to me, too… Okay. Maybe I am going crazy, but when I finally discover that I’m being haunted by a towering shadow monster with horns and a mournful gaze, I decide it’s not so bad. Especially when he finally finds a way to let me know that I’m his fated mate… and he’s mine. * Fated to the Phantom is the fourth book in the Sombra Demons series. It tells the story of Hope and Sammael, an anxious librarian and the mage-turned-phantom who is trying to catch her attention—and her heart.

I didn’t mean to steal the book—but I did… and now I’m in big, big trouble. The moment I convinced one of my loyal customers to buy the leather-bound spellbook, I regretted it. At first I thought it was because I could’ve gotten more than fifty dollars for it—money that would’ve come in handy while I was on vacay—but while I was on the beach, all I kept thinking about was the book. It called to me for some weird reason, and when I got Shannon’s message that she had a question about it, I hoped that meant she would let me buy it back. Nope. She wanted to know where I got it from. Too bad I had no idea. Almost as if by fate, it popped up in one of my boxes of stock, but I couldn’t trace it. Believe me, I tried. So when Shannon offered to drop it off so that I could get a closer look at it, I jumped at the chance. And that’s how I found the “true love” spell in the middle of the book. I don’t know what made decide it was a good idea to read it out loud, or what came over me when the beastly shadow monster appeared in my bedroom and crooked his claw at me… One thing led to another and, suddenly, I’m the bonded mate to a horned demon who doesn’t speak English, who stole me away to terrifying world of shadows and skulls, and who I can’t stop touching even so. When I finally understand him, there’s only one thing my ew mate wants to make sure is clear: I’m his. He has no intention of letting me go, either in Sombra or my world. And it isn’t long before I start to wonder if it would really be so bad to be forever bonded to the beast… *Bonded to the Beast is the third book in the Sombra Demons series. It tells the story of Kennedy and Loki, the bookseller and her beast.

What if your imaginary friend was real? Then again, Nox was never as imaginary as he was supposed to be, and while I thought of him as my friend, he watched over me because he knew we were meant to be more than that. He knew that we were fated. Me? I had no freaking clue, but that made sense. The last time I saw him I was twelve. He was a shadow monster that kept me safe. But, like all imaginary friends, he was just gone one day. And, as I grew up, I forgot all about Nox. He never forgot about me. Fourteen years later and he’s still as much a protector as he always was. When I’m stalked by an ex who just can’t accept that we’re over, Connor isn’t the only one who likes to hide in the shadows. Too bad for him that Nox is the shadows. He’s changed, though. My old imaginary friend is wrapped in golden chains, his shape unlike any he ever showed me before. He’s big, and he’s fierce, and he saves me from Connor only to take me for himself. And I… I’m kind of okay with that. *Stolen by the Shadows is the second book in the Sombra Demons series. It tells the story of Amy and Nox, the bonded couple introduced in Mated to the Monster.

Help! I’ve been abducted by a… demon? As if the weekend wasn’t enough of a disaster already, right on the heels of discovering how my boyfriend really feels about my best friend, I walk into our apartment—and straight into a trap. Is it a surprise that I initially think that was meant for her, too? That when I get grabbed and pulled through a portal by a massive demon with horns, he mistook me for Sierra? Only… he didn’t. And when he stuns me by speaking English, he explains that his name is Glaine, and he’s my fated mate. Do I believe him? Of course not. Demon or human, after what happened with Trevor, I was ready to swear men off for good. Besides, he might be sure that I’m his, but how does he know? And how am I supposed to get back to New York? I’m determined not to fall for the grumpy demon, especially when my first escape attempt lands me in the dungeons, with Glaine as my cellmate. We’re chained together, even after he breaks us out of there, and all I want to do is get away from him… which would be a lot easier if he wasn’t dedicated to proving that I’m the mate for him—and he’s the guy for me. *Grabbed by the Guard is the sixth book in the Sombra Demons series. It tells the story of Billie and Glaine, a stubborn city girl and the demon guard who wanted a mate so badly, he stole her… and is ready to do whatever it takes to keep her.

I’m used to getting all sorts of fan mail — but a spellbook? After an in incident on tour leaves me cooped up in my penthouse apartment, on vocal rest for the unforeseen future, with only my grumpy pet cat for company, I’m desperate for a distraction. At my manager’s suggestion, I do something I haven’t done in ages: I go through my fan mail. There was enough of it to keep me occupied… but I only get through one bag before I find a package addressed to me. To me. Not my stage name. Not the name I’ve gone by since I was sixteen, but my real name. Color me intrigued There’s a book inside, an old leather-bound book that has me curious. Inside? There’s something called a ’true love’ spell that, in a whisper since I’m not supposed to be speaking, I read out loud. Forget vocal rest. When a seven-foot-tall horned creature with glowing red eyes appears in my apartment, I scream so loudly that I think I scare him even more. I get over it, though. After the life I’ve lived, I thought I’ve seen everything — but then I find out that Dagon is an immortal shadow demon, I’m supposedly his fated mate, and he thinks I should give up all the glitz and the glamour and the fame to live with him in his shadow world all because he’s “claimed” me. Well… I wanted a distraction, didn’t I? * Claimed by the Creature is the fifth book in the Sombra Demons series. It tells the story of Sierra and Dagon (and Three, her cat), a bored starlet with an amusing outlook on life and the devoted demon who will do anything to make her smile...

It's Mal's first Christmas, and I'm going to make it one to remember... It’s been seven months since I made the impulsive decision to mate my monster, and I don’t think I could be happier. Malphas is a sweet soul in a delicious seven-foot frame, and even if our relationship is the definition of instalove, I don’t regret a second of being with my shadow demon. I know he misses Sombra, though. And while we’re planning on visiting his realm in the new year, I’m hoping to distract him with the upcoming holiday season. Mal marvels over the little things I take for granted every day. How will he react to snowflakes, tinsel, Christmas trees, and the legend of Santa Claus? Or, as he thinks of the big guy in red, Santa Claws? Despite not being the biggest fan of the holidays, I want him to enjoy our first Christmas together. Sharing with him my family’s traditions, creating some of our own… even figuring out the perfect gift for him. I can’t wait to surprise him with what I got Mal— —though I’m pretty sure I’m the one who ends up the most stunned when I discover that mating on the night of the gold moon has consequences that no one warned me about… * Santa Claws is a Christmas-themed holiday novella that is an extended epilogue to Mated to the Monster, Mal and Shannon's story. Written for mature readers, it's better if you read their full-length story first!

After my mate rejected me, I wanted to kill him. Instead, I ran away—which nearly killed me... A year ago, everything was different. I had just left my home, joining the infamous Mountainside Pack. The daughter of an omega wolf, I've always been prized—but not as prized as I would be if my new packmates found out my secret. But when my fated mate—Mountainside's Alpha—rejected me in front of his whole pack council and my secret got out, I realized I had one choice. Going lone wolf was the only option I had, and I took it. Now I live in Muncie, hiding in plain sight. If the wolves ever left the mountains surrounding the city, I'd be in big trouble. Good thing that the truce between the vampires and my people is shaky at best and Muncie? It's total vamp territory. Thanks to my new vamp roomie, I get a pass, and I try to forget all about the call of the wolf. It's tough, though. I... I just can't forget my embarrassment—and my anger—from that night. And then he shows up and my chance at forgetting flies out the damn window. Ryker Wolfson. He was supposed to be my fated mate, but he chose his pack over our bond. At least, he did—but now that he knows what I've been hiding, he wants me back. But doesn't he remember? I told him I'll never be his mate, and there isn't a single thing he can do to change my mind. To Ryker, that sounds like a challenge. And if there's one thing I know about wolf shifters, it's that they can never resist a challenge. Just like I'm finding it more difficult than I should to resist him. ** Never His Mate is a new release (65,000+ words) featuring Gemma Swann, a wolf shifter who is hiding a damning secret. When her fated mate rejects her for another female, her anger and her embarrassment lead to that secret getting out. Since staying behind on the mountains is just not an option and going back to her home pack is impossible, Gem decides she has one choice: risk death by fang in Muncie, the vamp town surrounding the mountains. Luckily for her, she not only manages to survive the local vamps, but she makes friends with one. Things are looking up for her: she has a place with her roommate, a new job she loves, and the certainty that she'll never have to look at Ryker Wolfson's handsome face ever again. Until he stalks into Muncie and, suddenly, Gem is confronted by his rejection all over again. So what if he says he had a good reason? If he thinks she's going to take him back now, he has another think coming. Because Gem? She'll never be his mate...

There's no escaping him... Fate sucks. As a shifter, I’ve always known that Fate—in the form of our goddess, the revered Luna—would have the final say when it came to my life. That includes everything: my pack, my rank, even my forever mate. And I hate it. I want to choose. I want my life to be mine, and if that makes me the odd one out in our pack? Oh, well. As a delta, it’s not like the higher ranks—our Alpha, his Beta, and the pack council—have much use for me anyway. Still, even I’ll admit I’ve always been drawn to the Beta of the Sylvan Pack. When I discover that he’s my fated mate, it seems like giving in to the Luna’s demands might not be such a bad thing after all—until he rejects me for a female he can’t even have. Because, yeah. Not only does Fate suck, it has a twisted sense of humor when it comes to me. So that’s that. I have to pretend like my broken bond isn’t a constant ache while watching as my fated mate begs for table scraps from another wolf. Is it any wonder that I start spending my free time in the woods surrounding our territory? I wasn’t afraid. Even at my low rank, I know I’m scarier than anything else that lurks in the darkness of the trees. But I was wrong—and when I see those insane golden eyes staring at me, I know I’m in deep, deep trouble. My name is Quinn Malone, and I’ve just been captured by a feral… *** *The Feral's Captive is the first full-length book (~60,000 words) in the Stolen Mates duet of two interlinked standalones. Set in the same world as Never His Mate, shifters are an open secret, most humans are off-limits, and a feral wolf shifter male is wiling to sacrifice everything to steal the female he believes will make him sane again. And though it may not be fated, Quinn and Chase’s bond is just as undeniable… This book is a rejected mates romance -- with Quinn first being rejected, then doing the rejecting -- but it's also a captive romance. It isn't dark, though shifters and vampires can be violent, and the smirk on Quinn's face depicted on the cover is pretty accurate. A shifter takes being chained up a little differently than a human would, and it doesn't take much for her to realize that her feral is actually trying to court her -- and she wants him to.

I really should’ve known better than to play around with that old book of spells… How was I supposed to know that the incantations scrawled inside of it worked? That the first one I read would open a portal into a demon plane — or that the next one was an unbreakable vow to the seven foot tall shadow monster I unwittingly summoned into my bedroom? He says his name is Malphas, that he’s something called a Sombra demon, and I’m his mate. Monster, demon… whatever he is, his muscles are bigger than my head, and that club between his legs… I don’t know if mate means the same thing to him as it does me, but he’s gotta be kidding. Spoiler alert: he’s not. Mal has been waiting for more than a thousand years for the one woman meant for him. He’s convinced that’s me, and he’s willing to do anything to prove it. And maybe there’s something really wrong with me because, before long, I find myself eager to let him try… * Mated to the Monster is the first in a series about the Sombra demons, a race of shadow-based monsters who will do anything to claim their females. Mal and Shannon might come from different worlds, but when it comes to fate, lust, and forever… they might just be a perfect match.
