Bad Witch Series by Robyn Bachar

Even a bad witch deserves a second chance. Wrongly accused of using her magic to harm, the closest Catherine Baker comes to helping others is serving their coffee. Life as an outcast is nothing new, thanks to her father’s reputation, but the injustice stings. Especially since the man she loved turned her in. Now the man has the gall to show up and suggest she become the next Titania? She’d rather wipe that charming grin off his face with a pot of hot java to the groin... moreEven a bad witch deserves a second chance.

Married life is hard enough without adding an uninvited vampire to the mix, and being tied to Zach endangers more than just her relationship. If Zach dies, she dies, and with his new seat on the necromancer council being challenged by older, more powerful masters, his life expectancy is dwindling fast.   Vampire politics is only the beginning of Cat’s problems. Hunters are stalking magicians, abducting entire families and killing anyone who resists. As the current Titania and Oberon, Cat and Lex must protect their people, but Cat’s dark past keeps the victims from seeking their help. Worse, the former Titania’s granddaughter wants to oust Cat from the job, believing her vampire ties make her unfit.   To break the bond Cat must broker deals with devils on a journey that will take her to hell and back—literally. Freedom comes at a high price, but Cat will risk anything to save her people and her marriage. Warning: This book contains explicit language, faerie shenanigans, a field trip to hell, even more magician sex, and gratuitous violence against vampires, demons, hunters, helicopters and the kitchen sink. less

Liars and tigers and weres, oh my! Riley O’Driscoll’s perfect life cracked thanks to her nasty divorce, and then her world shattered when her beloved grandmother’s murder left her with a surprise inheritance of magic and mayhem. Riley has less than a year to learn a lifetime’s worth of witchcraft, and after a career of academic excellence Riley has only failed in two subjects: love and magic. When witch hunters break down Riley’s door, a miscast spell sends her through the looking glass and into the path of sexy shapeshifter Jeremiah Galestrom. Jere was an agent of the Wild Hunt—an elite team of sorcerers sworn to protect magiciankind by hunting dangerous shapeshifters—who was infected and left for dead after his team was massacred. His faerie family saved his life, but his rescue left him trapped in Faerie with no hope of escape—until Riley arrives. They strike a bargain that trades a year of Jeremiah’s protection for Riley’s help, and Riley finds herself with a new roommate who’s a real tiger. With the hunters closing in, can Riley trust her life—and her heart—with a man who is counting the days to his freedom? And while Jeremiah knows he can protect Riley from the hunters, can he protect her from himself, and the wild magic within him? less
