I can see the spirits of dead people, for one. And I have a knack for fighting rogue supernaturals.My ex-alpha will never let me back in, but there's another alpha in the city. Something has been killing his wolves, and he wants me to destroy it before it takes another one. He'll triple my going rate--but that's not the thing that makes me agree to help him.He says he can free my wolf.It's not possible, but...What if it is?I'll help him, either way. Monster hunting is what I do, and if there's a monster killing wolves, I will stop it. Because those two warring alphas might believe the city is theirs, but this is my territory.The city embraced me when the packs wouldn't have me, and I will protect it--with or without my wolf. less

My new alpha did the impossible. He freed my hobbled wolf.And though I've craved a pack and an alpha since I was a rejected kid, I rebel against being anything less than his equal--even as my wolf worships the very ground he walks on. It makes for an interesting dynamic.Flung headfirst into the supernaturals' world, I am no longer a lonely, agonized outcast running from the moon... moreMy new alpha did the impossible.

It makes for an interesting dynamic.Flung headfirst into the supernaturals' world, I am no longer a lonely, agonized outcast running from the moon. My power is growing, I have amazing people around me, and the grateful mayor has set me up with an office and a legitimate job.For a minute, everything is quiet. Too quiet. Even the demon seems to have disappeared. And all that peace is just a little unsettling.But then a human hires me to go after the vampires--specifically the county master--and my world explodes into chaos.Good thing I like chaos.But when the demon returns with a vengeance, the council makes me an offer I don't want to refuse, and an infamous and scary as hell hunter blows into my life, the peace and quiet starts looking pretty damn good... less

It's hard to concentrate on work when you've just moon-shifted with your alpha...But the council that recruited me doesn't waste any time handing me my first assignment--and it just happens to be personal to me.I have to slay the warped evil that is Avis Vine--a human servant so twisted and changed by her former master's bad blood magic that she's no longer really human. She's a powerful, raging creature bent on revenge and filled with darkness and bloodlust... moreIt's hard to concentrate on work when you've just moon-shifted with your alpha...But the council that recruited me doesn't waste any time handing me my first assignment--and it just happens to be personal to me.I have to slay the warped evil that is Avis Vine--a human servant so twisted and changed by her former master's bad blood magic that she's no longer really human. She's a powerful, raging creature bent on revenge and filled with darkness and bloodlust.And making me suffer is her only goal.But my wolf and I, we know about goals. We have goals. And we're just a little twisted ourselves.We aren't about to wait for Avis to find us. We're going to hunt her down, and we're going to end her miserable life before she can achieve her only purpose in life--killing the people I love, the same way I killed her master.Frederick Axton was her only reason for living, and I took him away from her.You can see how that might piss a girl off.And the longer I battle Avis Vine, the more I realize she's not going to be easy to end. As she blows through my city like a violent, destructive cyclone, I have to wonder...Can I stop her before she shatters me and destroys my entire world? less

Do you know what’s stronger than a wolf shifter?A shapeshifter.A shapeshifter is stronger than a wolf shifter.When I discover a shapeshifting serial killer is targeting human women in my city, I have to go after him.Even though he's more powerful than me.Even though he says we're exactly the same. Even though there's a connection between us.He believes he's only taking out the trash, that the women he slaughters deserve their punishment. Too bad for him no one else agrees. They want him stopped... moreDo you know what’s stronger than a wolf shifter?A shapeshifter.A shapeshifter is stronger than a wolf shifter.When I discover a shapeshifting serial killer is targeting human women in my city, I have to go after him.Even though he's more powerful than me.Even though he says we're exactly the same. Even though there's a connection between us.He believes he's only taking out the trash, that the women he slaughters deserve their punishment. Too bad for him no one else agrees. They want him stopped.And too bad for us that stopping him is nearly impossible.The council sends me after him and tells me to bring him to them alive. They don't have to give me orders when it comes to the shapeshifter, because as long as he's free, he's going to be a danger to Lucy. And I'll do whatever I need to do to protect her.But things get complicated when Adam Thorne has his goons attack me...and guess who saves my life?Yeah. The shapeshifter.Add in a protective alpha who grows hotter with every passing night, a detective who is starting to remember things that may destroy him, and an enemy with a past that'll break your heart, and my life becomes one big chaotic mess.What's new, right?Then there's the dawning realization that my own past holds a long-buried secret, a secret my gut tells me I don't want to dig up. There are truths that will change everything I thought I knew about my father, my mother, and most of all, myself.I want to keep that secret hidden in the shadows, but it's creeping out. Slowly, inexorably, painfully, it's coming.It's coming. less

The vampires have the moon.They cannot take the sun.There are daywalkers in Jakeston, and the council wants me to stake them all before they can do more damage. With every day they remain free, they grow more powerful.The daywalkers are feeding, but they're leaving no proof of their grisly meals. There's no blood. No hair. No bones. No drained, dead bodies.Humans are just quietly disappearing.No one sees the mutant vampires. These baddies don't do frenzied, public attacks... moreThe vampires have the moon.They cannot take the sun.There are daywalkers in Jakeston, and the council wants me to stake them all before they can do more damage. With every day they remain free, they grow more powerful.The daywalkers are feeding, but they're leaving no proof of their grisly meals. There's no blood. No hair. No bones. No drained, dead bodies.Humans are just quietly disappearing.No one sees the mutant vampires. These baddies don't do frenzied, public attacks. Unlike Avis Vine, they don't want to draw attention to themselves--so there is simply death that no one sees.These daywalkers aren't eating just because they're hungry. They're devouring humans to grow their power. And somewhere out there is the magic that's keeping them going. If I find that charger, whatever it is, the daywalkers will weaken. They'll leave a trail I can follow.But how can I find something when I don't even know what it is I'm looking for?How can I find creatures full of magic who have no desire to be found?If that's not enough trouble, in the middle of trying to track untrackable daywalkers, my alpha disappears. I'm afraid he's been turned and has gone into hiding...or that he's been murdered.Then I feel him, and I know the truth.Jared is out there, and he's alive.Nothing will keep me from him. Not for long.I will walk through hell to rid my city of the daywalkers and destroy their twisted magic once and for all, and I will kill the world to save the man who would've done the same for me.And when my past comes back to haunt me, I'll have to put aside my horror over who--and what--I really am and find a way to forgive the woman I thought I could trust completely.Someday, I'll get back the life I love. I'll work the office, talk to spirits, and enjoy my new home in Huntersburg.But this is so not that day. less
