Blythe Li is a wellspring—a vessel containing magic that can only be used by a magi. The only problem is, women aren’t supposed to be wellsprings. In a world where powerful female magic workers rule, and vulnerable male wellsprings must follow the rigid social norms meant to keep their magic pure from corruption, Blythe doesn’t fit in anywhere. She can’t actually use magic, the way a woman should. Wellsprings can’t own property and have very little in the way of basic rights. And Blythe has no hope of making a fortuitous match and becoming a magi’s favored lover and pet, the way...

Troya has given up her mythology geek ways to focus on pursuing her nursing degree. She’s made weird, but fierce, friends in the growing city of Ontonagon in the four years since she arrived as an orphaned, wounded teenager. She’s managing to make something of herself, despite the loss of her real family. But it seems like the universe has other plans for her. Weird visions, hallucinations that make her closest friends seem like monsters…it's probably just an over the top reaction to all the stress in her life. Either that, or a brain tumor. When a creepy run-in with a monster during...

Esper and her ever-expanding group of freaks set out to confront one of the most powerful sorcerer families in the US. It turns out Toma’s brother is missing, someone out there is powerful enough to make an entire nest of vampires disappear—oh, and Toma’s family are a bunch of assholes. With all the political bull and the thinly veiled threats against Esper’s kind, it’s almost a relief to leave Toma’s family behind. Too bad the only help she has cleaning up the sorcerers’ mess is one small medium, one overly-emotional vampire, one busty werewolf, and one guy who doesn’t even...

Sam hunts monsters, sometimes curs and mongrels just like Sam.

My family is dead and gone. But they left their grimoire behind. Now it's my job to free the powerful magical beings trapped in the pages. I might just find a whole new family…if they don't kill me first. I was just a kid when my family was executed for starting a magical war, forcing me to live my life in the human world, far away from the judgment and scorn of the magical world—and far away from the weirdos who want me to tell them all my dangerous Lovell family secrets. But when a cursed grimoire containing enslaved magical beings falls into my lap, I can't continue to avoid my ...

Weird. Creepy. Frumpy. Boyish. At the young age of 29, reluctant necromancer Esper Jones is an outcast, labeled “the old witch on the hill” and avoided by all sane residents of the tiny village of Hellsfork Michigan. And that’s just fine with her. Dealing with people has all the appeal of poking her own eyes out. But Esper’s quiet world is upset when a strange, beautiful man named Toma blows into town and destroys the walls Esper has carefully built around herself.

Reluctant necromancer Esper Jones had a quiet life, hidden away with her freak looks, and her freak powers, in her freaky old witch’s house. But her beautiful, ghost-whispering boyfriend Toma has destroyed her carefully crafted, people-free life. Now she’s hearing voices in her head, monsters are running amok in Hellsfork, and there’s this vampire she can’t seem to shake. Somewhere between the black witches, hungry ghouls, and cowboy vampire hunters, Esper finds herself with a growing circle of people who actually seem to care for her (for some weird reason).

The pain is constant. And so is the guilt. And every day, I feel the pressure to do something. Hiding isn’t the answer. I’ve tried that, and it doesn’t make the pain and guilt go away. Besides, our hidden pocket world refuge is under threat and with the two realms trying to tear themselves apart, soon there won’t be anywhere left for us to hide. I’m not a hero. The pain, the power, the oh-so-tempting darkness I can feel growing inside me—I never asked for any of it. In fact, I’ve spent my entire life trying to avoid it. To be different from the evil witches who birthed me. And...

Not your typical reverse harem.... Gryphon shifter Gesa Lionheart isn’t your typical heroine. Screwed over by her family - a stunningly medieval gryphon clan that is supposed to value loyalty and truth - the former bodyguard sets out on her own to a remote city growing in the Michigan wilderness. With little in the way of life skills outside her clan training, and no one to depend on, she becomes a bounty hunter - chasing down low-level supernatural criminals for the local human police department.

Taken from a magical pocket world to a modern city ruled by the paranormal syndicate... I’ve spent my whole life being used by a cult for my healing abilities, always serving the will of The Mother. Then they came, chasing rumors of a powerful healing artifact. Instead of a necklace or a charm, they found a person. So, they stole me instead. My whole life has been a lie, and I now find myself surrounded by powerful paranorms I thought were extinct. They need me to heal their self-proclaimed “princess”—a powerful shifter who is secretly leading a rebel court that seeks to overthrow ...

Gryphon shifter Gesa Lionheart’s life is getting more complicated by the minute. She left her clan so she could escape their mind games, but here she is, pulled right back into the thick of it. It seems like saving her sister from the loony bin and ruining her mother’s political machinations would be enough to deal with, but no. Her snarky little fae is hiding something dangerous, her fox is about to lose his mind, her human might not be as human as he seems, and somehow, they’ve ended up with a strange squatter in their bookstore.

My strange family is growing, and I am more hopeful than ever that we'll eventually work out how we all fit together—even if my two potential alpha mates still want to murder each other on a daily basis. Amidst the evolving bonds, and my growing confidence in my place in this strange new world, my stubborn dragon alpha is rushing toward her coming of age—and toward the revenge she has been plotting since she was a child. Robin has schemed, and planned, and undermined the syndicate for decades, patiently waiting for the right time to strike. But finding out where the corrupt paranormal ...

I refuse to be the gung-ho little superhero my sister wants me to be. I’m not dragging the people I love into her war. But the war-mongering witch supremacists and the power-hungry Supernatural Alliance need to be stopped. So, I agreed to help her steal a couple of magical artifacts. The problem is, one of those artifacts is in the Angelic realm, guarded by a bunch of pompous, lying jerks who can definitely kick my ass. I’m pretty sure I’m not going to be able to just talk them into letting me borrow their deadly magical artifact. Again. But fighting angels and stealing relics is the ...

I might not agree with my rebel court’s plans for revenge, but I know that the corruption of the paranormal syndicate has to be stopped. Now I’m off to the syndicate’s vampire coven to help heal the vampire queen’s favorite blood donor/lover—from the poison my court slipped her as part of their scheme to get me into the coven…. I might not like the methods, but I know it’s up to me to get information from the vampire queen that will help Robin get back her birthright and overthrow the syndicate. I can do this. I can prove I’m strong enough to be part of Robin’s court, even...

Kat's return home with her captivating new mates should be a celebration of love and unity, yet the fledgling bond that once united them is now shadowed by resentment and the echoes of Kat's unwilling deception.

But unexpected obstacles are cropping up by the second. As setbacks threaten to shatter Kat's hopes for Larkwood's future, she must set aside her worries about her dysfunctional mate bonds and her wounded ...

Life would be easier if I really was an evil witch like the rest of my family. I did it. I managed to free all of the creatures enslaved in the pages of the Lovell family’s disgusting grimoire and I destroyed the book to make sure they stayed free. I thought life would go back to normal once I finished my task, but boy was I wrong. Turns out I’m not the last remaining Lovell witch after all. I have an older sister, and she’s been hiding from everyone—including me—for years. Even better? One of my lovers was responsible for wiping her from everyone’s memory. And now, not only has...
