Offbeat Crimes: Part Two Feral Dust Bunnies An orphaned kitten may be the only witness to romance and the impossible. Officer Alex Wolf responds to a lot of &‘paranormal' calls that aren't.

Officer Alex Wolf hoped his humaning skills were improving but now he can't unravel the strange politics at State Paranormal or why Jason's family seems to hate him.

Books are missing from the Rare Book collection—old tomes of magic containing dangerous summonings and necromancy. He's certain whoever has been stalking the Seventy-Seventh is composing their end game.

Frey Bjorkson is an orphan from New World Colony Five. While making a supply run, he's been captured by a Travian privateer and kept as a pet. Brutalized, he fights to hold on to his sanity and hope of escaping. His hopes are all but dashed when his master loses him to another, scarier male. Having lost his mate, Rone has given up his old military ambitions. Instead, he's volunteered to pose as a privateer to root out the arms suppliers of the traitorous males trying to overthrow female rule. When he becomes the reluctant master to a human pet, he has little patience for caring for the scared, battered creature. That doesn't stop him from wanting the boy, and, as he sets about claiming the human as his property, he finds himself getting in deeper than he'd intended. Not only does Rone prove to be kinder, he also gives Frey his first experience with sexual pleasure. The way Rone makes him feel, physically and emotionally, confuses Frey.

Jonathan Dax is a first generation space child from New World Colony One. Against his better judgment, he has become the liaison for the settlement. He doesn't trust Travians, including the fetching youth who kneels before him, begging to become his &‘boy'. The idea of becoming anyone's master is repugnant. He hates the way Travians have claimed human boys as &‘pets' and is loath to mimic their ways, yet, he cannot deny that Wen appeals to him. At first, both Dax and Wen consider what they do in the privacy of Dax's quarters a form of duty and no more. But the intensity of the pleasure and the emotions they share are impossible to ignore. They must each overcome their past and prejudices to form a real bond. Within the bucolic settlement, however, sinister forces are at work, and they threaten to destroy Wen and Dax's budding relationship.

And what better way to take a break from her life than a trip to Las Vegas? But life doesn’t always go as expected, and what was supposed to be a fun, carefree weekend turns into so much more. Getting married to a stranger definitely wasn’t part of her plan. No matter how much she’s attracted to the man she just met. Some Call It Devotion What would you do if you found out that you’re married but can’t remember your wedding? Kinsley Fitzgerald thought the hardest part of getting married was planning the wedding. Turns out it’s getting divorced from the man she can’t remember saying yes to. Tracking down her husband was easy. Getting him to sign the divorce papers isn’t. Because Landon West has an agenda: He’ll sign the papers if she lives with him for twenty-one days. If she still wants to get a divorce at the end, he’ll give it to her. Running out of time and options, she agrees to the deal and realizes her mistake as soon as she’s moved in. Because what if she doesn’t want their marriage to end once the twenty-one days are up? But that isn’t an option. She’s engaged to another man, and they’re getting married in less than three months. She has three weeks to decide, and he’s determined not to make it easy. This is the fourth book in the Sweet Dreams series and can be read as a standalone. Some Call It Attraction He grew up with champagne and caviar. She grew up with burgers and boxed wine. But they became best friends anyway. Grayson Jones was always certain that Rayna Montgomery would be in his life forever.

Not even when being with him could get her kicked off the show. This is the fifth book in the Sweet Dreams series and can be read as a standalone. Spark Keeping things professional has never been harder (pun intended). Glenys never thought she’d end up in a quirky little town called Humptulips. And she definitely never expected to feel an instant connection with a handsome and funny stranger who seems to have a slight tea doily fetish. The only problem: he’s her coworker, and once they find out, they agree to keep things strictly professional. But she can’t stop thinking about the man who haunts her every waking moment. But is a man she barely knows worth risking her dream job for? Note from the author: In order not to get kicked out of the good (okay goodish.... fine, sometimes good) girls club, I’d like to point out that this is a steamy romcom and my characters use bad language (sometimes) and like to get it on.

About the Watcher Series This simple beginning evolves into an epic journey through the shadow world of vampires, fallen angels, and the Watchers. This series is great for anyone who loves the romance of Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight Saga, the world building of Cassandra Clare's Mortal Instruments Series, and the high stakes of Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games. When you get to book two, fasten your seatbelt, each book is faster, darker, and sexier. Interview with the Author Q: What inspired you to write The Watcher Series? A: It’s kind of embarrassing, but it was my coping mechanism after my life took an unexpected turn. In 1996 I called off my wedding (only six weeks before it happened—but don’t worry, I found my Prince Charming later). Consequently, I was in this weird emotional state. Writing became my refuge. I didn’t write the whole book then, but I did write several scenes, chose the character names, and laid out the blueprint for my novel. Q: What made you finish writing the first book? A: In late 2008, I went back to what I had written again and toyed around for a long time. But it wasn’t until a student saw my manuscript sitting on a table and asked if she could read it that things got real. I nervously let her, dying a little bit inside. Then, she did the most magical thing—she asked if she could take it home to finish reading. It spurred me on, and I've never looked back. Q: What were your influences? A: I graduated with my degree in English and have a deep love of mythology and literature. Works like Paradise Lost, The Book of Enoch, Dracula, and The Tempest were all influences. I also had a friend introduce me to the old, cult classic film, Highlander when I was in college. This, combined with The Book of Enoch, sparked my ideas for my Watchers. (No, it wasn’t Buffy the Vampire Slayer. This was before the show ever aired. But we did use a lot of the same source material). I love the niches of urban fantasy and paranormal romance, too. I wanted my books to be a journey for my characters where they will find romance along the way, along with twists, turns, action, thrills, and a dash of mystery and intrigue. The Unintended starts off a little slower because of world building, but by the time you get to The Nexus, be prepared for a rollercoaster ride. Q: In what order should we read them? A: If you want maximum suspense, this is my recommended order: The Unintended The Nexus >> Allure (the prequel) The Sacrifice The Fallen Part 1 The Fallen Part 2 >> Light and Shadow: Watcher Series Shorts & Extras (I recommend reading “The Price” after The Nexus. The alternate point of view will change everything).
