But for the first time in a long time Harlow feels almost at home. Too bad peace never lasts in the Dwimmer world. The Grym Dunaras is still lost. The kraken gold has vanished. And Typhon has found them. And this time, he's not the only danger. Close on his heels is a member of the Senate who’d love nothing more than to burn Heathermoor to the ground.

I do not know my name. I do not know how I ended up in a world of broken continents and broken souls. What I do know is how to survive. How to fight. How to kill monsters with a precision that borders on magic. My memories are gone, stripped down to ash, but my body remembers things my mind cannot. Training. Instinct. Violence refined into something lethal and elegant. And beneath it all, a relentless drive to uncover the truth of who I was. One man stands in my way. Veyyr. His magic is unlike anything I've ever encountered, and the pull between us is undeniable. He knows me. Knows my past. Knows the name I no longer remember. And he refuses to tell me. Bound to his world and his secrets, I follow him into the wilds of a fractured land. A journey I have no reason to take. No stakes in. Except this. The deeper we go, the clearer it becomes that survival is no longer enough. The path forward runs through me. Through what I've forgotten and must remember. And if I don't reclaim the truth of who I am... This broken world may claim us both.

In a realm where magic reigns, a legendary Hero once stood against the encroaching darkness. But with his death, hope dwindled, and the best the world can muster is Harlow Daygon-a thief, magic school dropout, and notorious troublemaker. At nearly thirty, Harlow can't even cast a simple rune without blundering it. So why does anyone think she can take up the mantle of Hero? Reluctantly, she's dragged back to Neverthorn Academy with seven former classmates, tasked with training to confront and defeat the Villain of their world. But the challenges are stacked against her: Professor Hot-As-Sin makes it clear she's a failure. Professor Used-To-Be-A-Mean-Girl has a vendetta. And lurking in her past is a secret so dark it could reveal she's not the Hero the world needs-but the next Villain. With fate hanging in the balance, can Harlow embrace her destiny before the shadows claim her?

A prophecy foretold of a journey across the seas that would solve all my problems.But now I'm stuck between an old flame who wants to rekindle what we had, and a jealous vampire who would take the other's head if permitted.Did I mention the psycho goddess Lilis, stalking our every move, intent on killing us all?Despite our troubles, what started out as a cobbled-together faction destined to fail is finally starting to rise to the challenge.We're hot on the trail of the "gem" we've been searching for...a girl named Jade, who is the next key to restoring the Veil. If I can keep Raven from decapitating Maverick and myself from letting either of them make a fool out of me for love (again) we just might have a fighting chance.

The fate of the world rests on my shoulders as we hang on the edge of Ragnar k. And I can't catch a freaking break. Not even for ice cream and strippers.Facing down the monsters of my past left me on the cusp of death, wounded and running from the one person I trusted with my life.Havoc.My chosen mate is consumed by a curse so powerful it overrides his natural desire to protect me.I have no doubt he will kill me if he catches me.To save us all, I must figure out my connection to the Norse gods, and claim my place in this world.A journey like no other awaits, and I face it with my best friend at my side, and Havoc at my back.As my tale (tail) comes to an end I feel the threads of fate weaving a new path I can only reach by making an impossible choice.I must face not only the one who stands at the center of the darkness but Havoc as well.Will the ties between us be enough to stay his hand?** The FINAL book in the Golden Wolf Series and the wild conclusion to Cin and Havoc's story **

I am the Queen of the Werewolf Territory, a place that has always been my sanctuary, and yet I must leave my people if I am to save them. Our world is falling apart, and I must take the task my father set to me, and heal the Veil that protects us all. A deadly journey lies ahead of me, and no one can know that I am leaving-too many would steal the crown with me gone. With a small, secret contingent I go across the water to the human realm, a land I've never set foot on to find the gemstone that is the key to our salvation.If only that were my single crux. My heart is torn between the man I am hunting down, a man who stole my heart along with a jewel he had no right to take, and the man who stands at my side.One human with abilities he should not have. One vampire with a mouth that sets me on fire and leaves my body aching for more. Neither should be where I set my heart as a queen. And yet...I am drawn to them both.I must keep my eyes on the literal prize...and I must not let my heart lead.

I thought that my biggest problem was a curse that turned me into a golden retriever instead of a wolf.Then I accidentally took on a second curse that bound my fate to that of the world's. If I die, everyone else goes down in flames too. Ragnar k is now in my hands.Great. Talk about pressure I don't need.Did I mention everyone trying to kill me?My mate.My brothers.My mother.What a clusterfuck.Add in Loki, Freya, and a host of the Norse pantheon to the mix, each one trying to manipulate me to follow their own plans, and you've got a recipe for chaos.What's a girl to do?Find a new path that no one expects, and run straight into the arms of disaster.Or as some might call it....straight into the arms of Havoc.

Ten years ago, I 'died', and it was the best thing that ever happened to me.I should have known it wouldn't last.Once my family thought I was dead I was finally free to live. Until the day my brother walks into my tiny bookshop.No one leaves the Grayling pack and gets away with it. They drag me back, but not for the reason I believe.My mother has made an enemy of a powerful witchand I am to take the punishment meant for her. Death would have been kinder.This curse? What I am now? It's so much worse than I could have imagined. She didn't just cut me off from my wolf, or even simply kill me. She made me a golden retriever and sent me to a shelter. I'm ready to die in truth now, I'm hoping for it even. And then my mate walks in...but how am I supposed to convince him I'm the strong partner he needs to help him stop the end of the world when I can't stop wagging my freaking tail?

I came to Werewolf Territory to rescue my brother...And now he's gone. With a war for the crown on the horizon and the monstrous Hunters just days away, I've got to say goodbye to the only family I had left, and it's killing me. Worse, I can't help blaming Dominic for not keeping him safe-even if it is irrational. My heart is shattered-I feel like I've lost them both.Still, we've got to work together if we hope to defeat Edmund and put Will on the throne--no matter how hard it is to be near Dominic, and not touch him.Even as I wage war with my own heart and we prepare for battle against Edmund the Vile, a greater threat looms over the Territories. A being so terrible...so strong, that it makes our current king look like nothing more than a chump with a chip on his shoulder.I can't help but wonder if our unlikely mix of werewolves, vampires, and humans can defeat Edmund...and, even if we do, do we have any chance of surviving the hell-storm of what's coming next.
