May you live in interesting times. I'm not quite sure who said it, but I'd sure as hell like to find him and beat him in the head with a shovel. One thing about Cedar Falls...it was definitely interesting. I'd have settled for boring. Maybe even dull with a smidge of mediocrity. I guess I had nobody to blame but myself.

Something that keeps getting stronger. Something you can't always control.

Mika Marshall is back at the University of Morgana. It is her first fall semester, her first homecoming and Samhain on Morgana’s Island. So much is the same her first day and yet...so much is different. She is no longer the girl who couldn’t do basic magic, but she’s losing control - she’s finding it difficult to rejoin the living after what she had to do to win the challenge. Claire refused to yield, and Mika had to take her life to stay alive.

Mika knew the Council of Paranormals would suspect her, which is why they assigned a raven to "guard" her. But there is a "we" behind the killer, and she has no idea if that they are still out there, or worse, still on the island of Morgana waiting for the right opportunity to strike again. With Malachi being distant, Ethan, Lucien, and Audrey have to work without her to follow the dangling strings, while Mika tries to win the assassin to her side.

I thought things were calming down and getting back to normal. After a foray into the elven lands to rescue my friend from the nefarious clutches of the dark elves, I'd been looking forward to spending a nice quiet holiday in Cedar Falls with the people I love. Especially the guys. We deserved a break and some alone time. But I should have known better than that. Instead of Jingle Bells, spiked eggnog, and date nights, I'm faced with angry ghosts, rotten zombies, witch-hating locals, a pissed off vampire lord, and a partridge in a pear tree.

As the daughter of an Inari Fox, celestial messenger to the gods, I should have been reverent, wise, and collected like my father. As the daughter of a kitsune queen, I should have been poised and delicate, with just a hint of playfulness to pay homage to the fox spirit within, just like my mother. Unfortunately, genetics can be unpredictable, and they ended up with a hot mess dipped in sarcasm, rolled in spunk, drizzled with sass, and sprinkled with pop-rocks.

Another god joining my not-a-fan club. They say the third one's the charm...but not in this case. One wants to use me, one wants to kill me, and the new one wants me to do what every god in the nine realms failed to do...kill a god and put an end to Ragnarok. It's like they don't even know me at all. I fall down getting dressed. Thankfully, I have three-and-a-half boyfriends to help with the hard stuff and keep me safe. Especially when my arch nemesis, Sabine, escapes the school dungeon and is Hel bent on turning me into a Kaede-kabob.

Three men who give her a way out and a chance to start over. Will she take that chance and possibly find the ability to not only love someone else once again, but to love herself?
