As if baking holiday cookies, knitting a sweater for her husband, and making her daughter’s angel costume for the church pageant weren’t enough things for Lucy Stone’s busy Christmas schedule, she’s also working nights at the famous mail-order company Country Cousins.

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.

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.

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.

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.

He's a filthy, fierce cowboy. I'm his best friend's daughter. He says I'm off limits. But now I'm back in our small town, all grown up and aching for the one man I shouldn't want. My dad thinks throwing me into ranch work will scare me off for good. He's wrong. Because the more I'm around Dixon Chase, with his rough hands and dirty mouth, the more I want to stay. He says he can't touch me. That I deserve better. But once he gives in, there's no going back.

And believe me, the list is so long it could practically be two—one for all my usual screw-ups and the other for all my mistakes involving Hayes.
