And she’s damned happy that way. Don’t give her any complications in her black and white world. Circe’s a shifter elemental hybrid. One of the very few who exist. Too often these hybrids do not make it to adulthood. The fact that she and her siblings did has made them uniquely qualified to run the Order of Elementals—a secret group designed to assist elementals, particularly those who share a host with a shifter. Long ago, Circe kicked Mae Forrester out of her life. Now Mae’s back, and Circe has to deal with the reasons Mae left. As if that’s not bad enough, a gorgeous hunk of a shifter shows up on her doorstep with a little girl hybrid who desperately needs Circe’s help.

Scandalous Twin bear shifters Tyler and Sean O’Reardon need a little help. They’ve got guardianship of a set of twin toddler girls who are hybrid elemental shifters. No biggie, right? Wrong. The twin girls are throwing tantrums that come in the form of tornadoes and earthquakes. Order of Elementals agents Camden and Eden Brazos—also twin hybrid elemental shifters—are assigned to Bear Canyon Valley’s mountain range to save the set of toddler twins. So, what’s the problem? No one told Camden and Eden they were expected to be nannies. Say it isn’t so. Oh, but it is. And Camden can bearly—oops, barely!—stop gritting her teeth over this one. Because the bear shifter Tyler is too sexy for his own good. What’s next? Oh, nothing. Except no one’s really sure why two single males are guardians of two toddler girls. As far as Tyler and Sean are concerned, they have a good reason for being guardians. And it’s nobody else’s damned business. Until the Shifter Council steps in. Then questions have to be answered. And custody of the twins has to be determined. Only problem is… The Order of Elementals issued an order against Tyler to keep him from having guardianship of the twins. Camden’s getting custody. Now Tyler’s pissed. Insta-attraction just turned scandalously close to Insta-hate. Delicious Twin bear shifters Tyler and Sean O’Reardon need a little help.

Total and complete silence. Second problem? A beautiful witch named Symone who lives on an island that’s off the grid. She’s not just any witch. She’s the witch that runs the southern hemisphere Circle of Witches. She has no use for shifters but tolerates them. As for elementals, she hates them, with a passion—for good reason. Marco’s on her island courtesy of an invitation from her brothers, Jenner and Cedric. He just wants to chill and get in touch with his elemental. He doesn’t need the drama that Symone’s cousin Brigitte brings. He doesn’t need to save an entire community of people. These are not Marco’s problems. Except, they are. Wish Marco some luck. This gorgeous hunk of an elemental shifter’s going to need all the help he can get.

Michael Holland is a grim reaper working the worst beat in the worst town. Michael’s best friend is a pot-smoking tooth fairy, his boss is the angel of death, his psychiatrist can read his mind, and he counts bogeymen, demons, and clones as his acquaintances. His nine-to-five is a succession of stupidity, clearing up the remains of the latest Darwin Award winner or dealing with the detritus of some apocalyptic clerical error, and it only seems to be getting worse. Michael is as equally disillusioned with death as he was with life, but at least life made more sense. In Forever After, Michael and his friends battle confused succubi, tormented psychopaths, evil henchmen, and a demon who thinks he’s Santa Claus. This darkly humorous novel is set in a fantasy world that exists parallel to ours—a world where anything is possible, very little makes sense, and nothing is as it seems.

A short, sleek novel of encounters set in the witching hours of Tokyo between midnight and dawn, and every bit as gripping as Haruki Murakami’s masterworks The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle and Kafka on the Shore. At its center are two sisters: Yuri, a fashion model sleeping her way into oblivion; and Mari, a young student soon led from solitary reading at an anonymous Denny’s into lives radically alien to her own: those of a jazz trombonist who claims they’ve met before; a burly female “love hotel” manager and her maidstaff; and a Chinese prostitute savagely brutalized by a businessman. These “night people” are haunted by secrets and needs that draw them together more powerfully than the differing circumstances that might keep them apart, and it soon becomes clear that Yuri’s slumber—mysteriously tied to the businessman plagued by the mark of his crime—will either restore or annihilate her. After Dark moves from mesmerizing drama to metaphysical speculation, interweaving time and space as well as memory and perspective into a seamless exploration of human agency—the interplay between self-expression and understanding, between the power of observation and the scope of compassion and love. Murakami’s trademark humor, psychological insight and grasp of spirit and morality are here distilled with an extraordinary, harmonious mastery.
