I came to Fire Lake to outrun my past. A broken-down car, an empty wallet and one loyal dog — that’s all I had when I stumbled into this small town I didn’t plan to stay in. Then I met Gus. Ex–Navy SEAL. Carpenter. Six-foot-five of trouble wrapped in muscle and quiet control. He’s the kind of man who can fix anything — except whatever’s broken inside him. I tell myself I don’t care. But every time his gaze finds mine, my resolve cracks a little more. His touch scorches. His kiss tastes like danger. And when he says my name, I forget every reason I ever had to run.

Presley Marks has just become a cliché: the jilted bride. Wearing a white dress, standing in front of her friends and family, she announces that her fiancé - according to his text - has forgotten about the wedding. Humiliated and angry, she hides from the world in the mundane routine of her life. Working at the Clifton Forge Garage isn’t glamorous, but it’s safe from the spotlight.

Josie Hayes is always on the run. From bad decisions. From heartbreak. From cowboys. Her latest escape was supposed to be a quiet reset at her family's cabin in Tennessee—not a reckless detour at a smoky backwoods bar and definitely not a collision with Lincoln Carter. Rugged and magnetic, he's temptation in a cowboy hat, and his slow smile makes forgetting her rules far too easy. Their connection is instant, electric, and impossible to ignore. What starts with teasing glances and lingering touches spirals into a series of nights that feel like more—too much more.

I thought moving to Ravens Hollow would be simple. One month into my new supernatural life, I figured my biggest challenges would be housebreaking my oversized puppy and writing fluff pieces for the local paper. Then dark magic hits The Oracle, pulling me straight into an investigation tangled with vindictive sea witches, feuding werewolf packs, and ancient tree sprite magic even the coven can't crack. Now I'm chasing clues with Police Chief Whip — an immortal siren cursed with secrets — and Alex, a too-charming lion shifter who knows how to get under my skin.

Wir hätten uns nie treffen dürfen. Unsere Welten sind grundverschieden. Sie fährt Ferrari, ich einen zerbeulten Pick-up. Sie hat Hausangestellte, ich führe meine Autowerkstatt alleine. Sie gibt mehr an einem Tag aus, als ich im Monat verdiene. Und doch... Obwohl sie mein absolutes Gegenteil ist, kann ich diesen einen Kuss nicht vergessen. Dieser eine Kuss, der nie hätte passieren dürfen. Und dann verschwindet sie, und ich weiß nichts weiter, als ihren Namen. Nicht einmal einen Schuh hat sie mir hinterlassen, trotzdem fühlt es sich ein bisschen wie Cinderella an.

Life as a vampire journalist was finally settling down. I had my dream job at The Oracle, a loyal (if slobbery) pup, and a maybe-relationship that didn’t involve murder investigations. Then my long-lost mother crashes back into my life with a revelation that rewrites everything I thought I knew about my family…Before I can process the truth, another story lands on my desk, pulling me into a dangerous game of demon bargains, shifting alliances, and bodies piling up faster than I can chase the leads.
