Hallie Scott expected the hangover from her thirtieth birthday. She did not expect to find her calm, orderly life as Swan Cove's head librarian to completely change overnight when her best friend added Hallie to the mayoral ballot because of one little remark. One. Now she's going head-to-head with the small coastal town's prominent "prince," Fitz Montgomery . . . whose charm is about to get seriously checked.

Five years ago, my world was turned upside down when my husband and sons disappeared without a trace. I mourned, I searched, and when I got no answers, I began to prepare. Nobody will catch me vulnerable again. I was wrong to think my life couldn’t get any crazier. Now there are two vampires at my door telling me my missing family wasn’t human...and neither am I. I have a chance to regain everything I’ve lost.

"I want to spend your last semester getting you out of those pearls, and on your knees.” That’s what he said to me when he discovered that, with five months of college left, I was financially cut off. Young, wickedly handsome, and politically incorrect, Graham was unlike any man I’d met. If you’re wondering if I told him off—if the night ended with me slapping that delicious smirk right off his face—that didn’t happen. My name is Elle Courtney, and I’m the first to admit my mistakes. And Senator Graham Delaney? Well, he always gets exactly what he wants.

I play defense for the Boston Brawlers. Aidan means "fiery", Liam means "protector", and isn't that what you want your defenseman to be? The fiery protector of your team?

We all know the story… Time stops. They feel a zing course through their bodies. The air crackles between them. Their breaths hitch.

As a romance author, I’ve written my fair share of static electricity moments. But that’s fiction. No one actually finds their soulmate. Or so I thought. Meeting Julian was unexpected, wonderful, and… possibly fate? He makes me feel things I didn’t think happened outside the pages of my favorite books.

I've woken up in Heaven as I wanted when I first passed, but it's definitely not what I want now. Jehovah—or God, as most know him—is holding me captive for more reasons than one. To mock and hurt Lucifer, stop his sons from falling in love with me, and to cause general chaos between the three realms. A war brews right over the horizon as I fight against my feelings for Jehovah and dive back to where I belong...with my demons. As a prophecy unfolds, all I can think is that the fight between good and evil is a lot more complicated than it seems

Lark Espinoza could get lost in her music - and she's not so sure anyone in her family would even care to find her. Her trendy, party-loving twin sister and her mother-come-lately Beth, who's suddenly sworn off men and onto homemaking, don't understand her love of cassette tapes, her loathing of the pop scene, or her standoffish personality. For outcast Lark, nothing feels as much like a real home as working at Bubble's Oddities store and trying to attract the attention of the cute guy who works at the Vinyl shop next door - the same one she traded lyrical notes with in class.

Among them these days is our old friend, Zachary, and if he’s behind the attack he’s right in thinking we haven’t forgotten how he betrayed us. Which may be why he decided to strike first.

One of the scariest vampires in Midnight Harbor loves me. I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing, but I'm not going to look too closely at it. Not when secrets are coming out about my past and a rival vampire is hellbent on not only possessing me, but my sister too. If I want to survive the secrets and plotting, I'm going to need Bran Duval by my side. Having him in my bed is just a bonus.

Sutton is like a delicate wildflower sprouting up between cracks in the cement. She's beautiful, unexpected, and life-giving, especially after spending the last five years in prison. The first time I saw her at the clubhouse, my knees buckled and I grew so lightheaded I thought I would faint. She's skittish, however. I don't know what she's been through, but my girl can barely look at her own shadow without shrinking away from the darkness.

I finally know who I am, and it terrifies me. Worse, I think it also terrifies my hot vampire boyfriend, Bran Duval. Can we get past the latest revelations about my origins and newfound power? Will Bran ever look at me the same way again? We have to figure things out if we’re to defeat the enemy that’s coming. Because they're closer than we think.

Sorry to whoever wrote the scripts for the fairytales I grew up watching in movies as a kid, but, bro, you got it all wrong. Fabulous floor-length gowns and fairy godmothers don't appear out of nowhere, promising to fix your problems when you're at your lowest, crying on a bench in a torn dress. Random animals have never cleaned anything I've ever owned, and though I would bend over backward to have a pet dragon that breathes fire, the best I can hope for is a small-bearded dragon...and they can't fly.
