No one ever told me what to do if I ended up 40-something, divorced, and jobless. When my ex knocks at my door with his new girlfriend, I somehow manage to turn them into toads. But that's not possible, right? Still, my ex-husband's car is in the driveway, and he's nowhere to be found. Which doesn't look great for me. So I do the only rational thing I can think of...I run for it, straight back to the small town I grew up in. Mystic Hollow is exactly the way I remember it, except now it seems that everything I thought was normal and boring is supernatural.

What happens when three sexy princes are dying to bring me to my knees? I turn the tables and leave them begging on their knees for me… The three handsome royals are driving me out of my mind. Not only are they making my life miserable at the dragon riders' academy, but some unexplainable...

I thought being Karma would be a cinch. I thought wrong. Turns out someone knows what I did to my jerk ex and his sleazy girlfriend. Or at least they left me a note telling me they knew, not that they bothered to sign it. When my ex is reported missing and cops from my old town start sniffing around, I know I'm in trouble. What's worse? I find a body outside my house.

This has to be a joke… We almost died escaping from Nightmare Penitentiary, but somehow, we managed to survive and to even get free. And then? Then, we’re thrown right back into peril again. And as much as I just want to say screw it and give up, I have to pull my “big girl panties” on and keep going. Because the alternative is a very grisly death. Luckily for me, my men and I are a pack of dangerous half-breeds. A wraith. A dark fae. A vampire-shifter. A shapeshifter. And things mixed in with us that even we don’t understand. But in this dark place, everyone is dangerous.

Did your mother ever warn you about the monsters under your bed? Well, they’re real. And they own me. Not that I mind. Yeah, the last thing a demon hunter should do is align herself with demons. But you know what? I’ve spent my life being lied to. And I’m done with that. Demons aren’t our enemies. Hell, if I found one of them under my bed, I’m more likely to do hot things to him than to slay him. At least now that I know the truth. But those monsters under my bed? The creatures everyone fears? They need my help. Three very sexy demons need me to move heaven and earth to save them.

My ex-boyfriend and his two best friends have a plan to escape. One they’re willing to include me in. They say something is hunting the criminals in this place, and that our only chance at survival is to get free. But freedom has a price. And we’ll pay it over and over again.

A bad decision. A moment that changes everything. When my enemy finally gets his hands on me, I know I won’t survive. But when an unexpected stranger comes to my rescue, I think I’m finally safe. Five men call me their mate. Five men would do anything to protect me. Except, can you ever truly be safe when monsters are lurking in your shadows?

I came to The Selection against my will. I don’t want an alpha. Alphas cause pain. Alphas take what they want and they don’t give a darn about anyone else. The last thing I want is to have one claim me, and I’ll do whatever it takes to escape these games without one at my side. Which is exactly when I meet Ezra and Cayson. They make me laugh. Make me feel protected for the first time since the day my brother was murdered. Even make me wonder what life would be like with alphas claiming me as their own.

One moment I was having an epic girls’ night, the next I was being hauled away in handcuffs… But that was just the beginning. When I tapped into incredible powers I never knew I had that wild night, I suddenly became the target of a dangerous ruler. He believes that with me by his side, he’ll rule the world. Unfortunately for him, I have three handsome mates who aren’t about to give me up. My dragon shifter will burn the world down before he lets someone else have me. My mutant, with a heart of gold, will fight with his last breath to protect me.

I’ve been taken by demons. Taken might be a strong word, but rescued doesn’t exactly sound right either. As an angel, we should be mortal enemies. In fact, I should kill them and send them straight back to hell. Only, my memories are a little fuzzy. My wings have been torn off. And, it seems, the angels want me dead. So, what’s a girl to do? For now, I’m going to try to stay alive. But eventually, I need to figure out why these three demons seem to adore me. And also, what side I’m on now. If I’m not an angel, and I’m falling for demons, what does that make me? Hunted by everyone, it seems.

The world was never supposed to have dragons again... and I was certainly never supposed to become one. Now, I’m at the center of a war I don’t understand, bonded to powerful dragons who refuse to let me go, while being hunted by those who want to control me. They don’t just want to protect me. They want to claim me. Body, power, and soul. And the deeper the bond grows, the harder it is to resist the heat between us. Fire. Ice. Storm. Power. Each bond makes me stronger. Each choice pulls me deeper into a destiny I can’t escape. But power comes with a price.

As a human, the fae see me as no better than something they scrape off their shoes. I'm good enough to wipe their butts and clean their sheets, but that's about it. So when I lose my job as a maid, I get the fun choice of either becoming a whore or starving to death—until a fae prince presents me with a plan involving a magical spell that will make the world believe I'm his mate. I don't trust the prince one bit, but left with no other choice, I agree. Only, the spell goes wrong and instead of matching with just him, I'm matched with all four of the fae princes.

When I meet a psychic in Mystic Hollow, I'm skeptical. Even though, you know, I've accepted most of the supernatural world. But who could blame me when the psychic acts like a stereotype from a really corny show? Yet when our hands touch, everything changes. Suddenly, I'm seeing ghosts all over our little town. And when they realize I can see them, I become the karmic justice for far too many ghosts. Just another crazy day in my life though, right? Wrong. When one of the ghosts wants revenge against one of my witchy pals, I find myself trying to dive into the dark past of our town.

I'm nobody special. Just a healer in a small village. The only girl in a house full of rowdy boys. But then I stumble across an injured dragon, save his life, and everything changes. My dragon decides that we'll go to the Dragon Rider Academy and become great warriors together. There's just one problem. All dragon riders are male, and all dragons are female. Considering I break their most basic rules just by existing, no one is exactly rolling out the welcome mat for me. Especially not the three darkly handsome princes who run the academy.

Two handsome alphas have claimed me as their mate in order to protect me from the man who killed my brother, Kurt. Our relationship is fake. They don’t want an omega, and I don’t want alphas, but we have to make it seem real if there’s any chance of getting free from Kurt. But just when we think things can’t get any more complicated, the feral wolves arrive.

When I was betrayed by the men I trusted most in the world, the consequences were severe. All I've thought about since then is getting my revenge on the men who broke my heart. Only, when I get free, I realize I have to play nice or my dreams will be destroyed. All I've ever wanted is to graduate from the Guild of Assassins and now two of the men I hate are my competition. And the other? My mentor and teacher.

All my life I was nothing. Average. Forgotten and overlooked. And then a powerful fae claimed me as his mate, changing everything. But death took him from me. And then an attack in the night left me a prisoner to the dangerous shadow beasts.

Do monsters have midlife crises? Because I’m pretty sure I’m having one…My kind bring trouble and chaos wherever they go. I can’t change that; it’s just the way things are. So rather than continue to watch the people around me being impacted by my curse, I did the only thing I thought I could, I stepped away from the world. I love my cottage. And my life. But it can get a little lonely. So when my friend mixes up a special coffee, one that could make my life a little more fulfilling, I drink it eagerly, ready for whatever life might throw at me.

My mother sold me to the shifters, all in the name of peace. For more than a century, the witches and shifters have been at war. So when my mother came home with the news that peace had been struck between us, I should've known better. Warning bells should have been ringing in my head, but they weren't. It wasn't until the shifters came for me that I knew better.

I'm not the witch my husbands think I am. I'm about as good at magic as I am at flirting, which is pretty darn bad. Still, I'm going to try to save them. Not just because it's the only way to save myself but because I want to. There's no life for me back home, but maybe, just maybe, if I can show my husbands I'm useful, their lingering touches and heated looks will become so much more… maybe their love will even bring me the home I've always longed for.
