Swamp Magic Series by Bobbi Romans

Deep in the muggy swamps where there is but one rule, kill or be killed, a new species has emerged—born not from nature but spawned from evil. Octavia wasn’t stupid. Those unfortunate souls who have crossed paths with her didn’t just become swamp creatures, they became the least deadly of them. She hadn’t counted on the strong spirits of those she’d cursed. From those murky swamp depths, a hero emerged. The type from which legends are born... moreDeep in the muggy swamps where there is but one rule, kill or be killed, a new species has emerged—born not from nature but spawned from evil. Octavia wasn’t stupid. Those unfortunate souls who have crossed paths with her didn’t just become swamp creatures, they became the least deadly of them. She hadn’t counted on the strong spirits of those she’d cursed. From those murky swamp depths, a hero emerged. The type from which legends are born. Moss, whose sensual iridescent tattoos are in fact thanks to his reptilian side, still struggles to come to terms with his fate and wants nothing more than to be left alone. Beth’s life becomes upturned when she reluctantly agrees to accompany her idiotic brother on a hunt for the Bog Man. When she becomes separated from the others she comes face to face with the legend himself . . . only no one ever mentioned how damn sexy he was. The swamp’s dark history tests the duo on their survival skills as well as luring them deeper into the magic of the swamp. less

Deep in the humid swamps, a sorcerous war rages. Demetrius, heir to the late Swamp Witch, hunts down the men his mother left bound by her dark magic. Cursed to be a laughably undangerous swamp creature, armadillo shifter Damien stays deep in his cave. Well hidden and out of sight. Until he met Grace. Grace gave up on love ten years ago, when her fiancé, Henry, disappeared in the swamp... moreDeep in the humid swamps, a sorcerous war rages. Demetrius, heir to the late Swamp Witch, hunts down the men his mother left bound by her dark magic. Cursed to be a laughably undangerous swamp creature, armadillo shifter Damien stays deep in his cave. Well hidden and out of sight. Until he met Grace. Grace gave up on love ten years ago, when her fiancé, Henry, disappeared in the swamp. Yeah, she'd heard tales of swamp men, swamp witches and cursed creatures, but she hadn't truly believed in them. Then she met Damien. As enemies emerge and alliances tangle, one thing becomes clear: only the strongest will survive. Thrust together in the face of imminent danger, Grace and Damien become close, connecting in ways they'd never imagined, until a secret from the past threatens their fledgling bond. As the future collides with the past, the duo fight to stay alive and to discover if true love really can strike twice. less

Stranded on a deserted island, unsure of when help might arrive, should have made them wary. Would have for most people. Instead, they discover the seclusion needed for wild nights hot enough to penetrate even the most beastly of hearts. Will survival on the island tear them apart or pull them closer then either imagined possible? less

The Society had come to hurt her. Planted a bomb. They failed. He’d saved her and died doing so. Or so they thought. He’d been buried and mourned over... None knew, he’d only been playing possum.
