The Decadent Sins Saga concludes with the riveting story of the young man Torin took under his wing. Now, twenty years later, he is the Mafioso to fear… They say I am the Devil’s Spawn. They aren’t wrong. They say I am evil incarnate. They aren’t wrong. I am Death. Brendan Caruso I was born as a Kent, but since my eighteenth birthday, one man taught me the true value of who I was and who I was meant to become… a man I now call Dad. Torin Caruso legally adopted me and changed my name on my nineteenth birthday. Today, I am the legal son and successor of the most feared Mafioso the country has ever known. Until me. Under Boss X’s tutelage, I became the best of the best Mafiosos out there. The word no isn’t in my vocabulary, and those who dare use it quickly learned the error of their ways. I’m fiercely protective of my Caruso family, so when Xia Silver came snooping at Decadent Sins under the premise of looking for a job, I smelled a rat. She was too refined, too articulate, and too beautiful to be as destitute as she claimed to be. Not that it stops me from allowing my testosterone to get the better of me. Instead of looking out for my father, I was too caught up expunging pent-up lust with the pretty redhead to take notice. Dad ended up behind bars because of my slackness. Now, I’m on the warpath. Xia Silver will pay for her deceit, and since her father is the Boss of the East Coast Mafia intending to oust the Caruso family, I know just how to get Torin out of jail and end their interference—killing two stones with one bird… I’m going to marry the twit. There will be no mercy. She will learn no one uses the Devil’s Spawn and walks away scot-free. PLEASE NOTE: Although the blurb is in 1st person, the book is written in 3rd person, dual POV.

In the #1 New York Times bestselling Alpha and Omega series, mated werewolves Charles Cornick and Anna Latham face a threat like no other--one that lurks too close to home... They are the wild and the broken. The werewolves too damaged to live safely among their own kind. For their own good, they have been exiled to the outskirts of Aspen Creek, Montana. Close enough to the Marrok's pack to have its support; far enough away to not cause any harm. With their Alpha out of the country, Charles and Anna are on call when an SOS comes in from the fae mate of one such wildling. Heading into the mountainous wilderness, they interrupt the abduction of the wolf--but can't stop blood from being shed. Now Charles and Anna must use their skills--his as enforcer, hers as peacemaker--to track down the attackers, reopening a painful chapter in the past that springs from the darkest magic of the witchborn...

Welcome to Patricia Briggs’s world, a place where “witches, vampires, werewolves, and shape-shifters live beside ordinary people” (Booklist). It takes a very unusual woman to call it home—and there’s no one quite like Mercy Thompson. By day, Mercy Thompson is a car mechanic in the sprawling Tri-Cities of Eastern Washington. By night, she explores her preternatural side. As a shape-shifter with some unusual talents, Mercy’s found herself maintaining a tenuous harmony between the human and the not-so-human on more than one occasion. This time she may get more than she bargained for. Marsilia, the local vampire queen, has learned that Mercy crossed her by slaying a member of her clan—and she’s out for blood. But since Mercy is protected from direct reprisal by the werewolf pack (and her close relationship with its sexy Alpha), it won’t be Mercy’s blood Marsilia is after. It’ll be her friends’.

After Charmed ended in 2006, witches were relegated to sidekicks of televisual vampires or children's programs. But during the mid-2010s they began to resurface as leading characters in shows like the immensely popular The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, the Charmed reboot, Salem, American Horror Story: Coven, and the British program, A Discovery of Witches. No longer sweet, feminine, domestic, and white, these witches are powerful, diverse, and transgressive, representing an intersectional third-wave feminist vision of the witch. Featuring original essays from noted scholars, this is the first critical collection to examine witches on television from the late 2010s. Situated in the aftermath of the #MeToo movement, essays examine the reemergence and shifting identities of TV witches through the perspectives of intersectional gender studies, hauntology, politics, morality, monstrosity, violence, queerness, disabilities, rape, ecofeminism, linguistics, family, and digital humanities.

But I survived, and today I’m a Private Investigator from Tampa, Florida, and I’m on a job that lands me in the bowels of a super Airbus… the kind I’ve never seen the likes of before. I think I just took on a job I am in no way equipped to handle. I’m Max DuPont, billionaire and owner of CyberCo Airlines in Florida. I like money and power; therefore, I work hard.
