Ian Foley is not a good man. At least, that's what he thinks. He's on his way to Alaska, looking for something to save his soul. On the way, he runs into a boy in need of a savior-or at the very least, a friend. But appearances aren't everything they seem. The mysterious Sam has secrets of his own, and soon Ian realizes he's in well over his head, on a ride that's out of control. It might be just the opportunity Ian needs to prove he's changed, or it might the final thing that tips the scales towards his ultimate ruin. [This story is a spin-off of "Heart's Blood."

When a series of thefts escalates to murder, werewolf detective Dane Hunter and his fae partner, Julian Hart, must uncover the dark history of Spring Lakes before the past repeats itself and destroys them both. ***** A year after starting a life together, private detectives Julian and Dane investigate a string of strange burglaries plaguing the shops in downtown Spring Lakes. It seems simple enough, until a murder, a disappearing body, and the discovery of strange tunnels beneath the streets take the case for a supernatural turn. The new detective in town, Rian Halloran, may hold the key to unlocking the town's dark past and its surprising connections to Julian. As Julian learns more about the Fae side of his family history and Dane struggles with the responsibility of being an alpha, solving a mystery isn't the only thing at stake. Dane and Julian must reconcile past and present, navigate complicated families, and learn how to work together-all while stopping an incursion of strange creatures from the Fae underworld-if their partnership, and love, will survive.

Deeply hurt by a lover's betrayal, Noah Hunter leaves a shattered life behind and moves to Spring Lakes to join his brother's pack. All he wants is a quiet place and some time to heal. Fate has other ideas. In the middle of the night, on a lonely stretch of road, Noah hits a dog. When he brings the injured animal to a veterinarian, he crosses paths with the singular, mysterious, and aggravatingly handsome Ambrose Thorne. When, after learning that Noah needs a place to stay, Ambrose invites him to his home, Noah thinks he may have found just the sort of peace and space he needs, and the last thing he expects is to become entangled in the heart of a mystery. While helping his brother Dane on a case involving a string of inexplicable thefts, Noah soon discovers that his new acquaintance is more than he seems and is inextricably tied to the strange burglaries. As the case becomes complicated by occult rituals, murder, and mythical beasts, Noah finds himself in more than one kind of danger - because while he doubts that anyone would want something so broken and torn, it seems like his heart might get stolen, too. He just hopes that the one who steals it and the thief at the heart of the mystery are not one and the same. ----- WARNINGS: This story contains strong language, some violence, and sex. ----- DISCLAIMER: This is a work of fiction.

When an injured Wolf shows up on his doorstep, half dead and desperate for protection, gentle giant Monty naturally wants to help. Unfortunately, the Wolf is Kit Mortaine, and he belongs to a dangerous rival Pack. Fleeing his own family, Kit seeks asylum with Monty's brother's Pack, but the Hunters have learned the hard way not to trust Mortaines. Their female alpha, Selene, was once betrothed to Monty's brother, Dane, and she still hasn't forgiven him for Choosing someone else. Given the chance, she'd gladly restart the war their arranged union was meant to end for good. Dane is reluctant to grant Kit's request, but Pack law says asylum must be given unless a Pack rejects the seeker as one. Turning his back on someone in need isn't something Monty can do, so Dane allows Kit to stay, as long as Monty agrees to be his bodyguard. After his last job ended in tragedy, Monty vowed he'd never be responsible for someone else's life again, but something about Kit makes it impossible to refuse. The more time he spends with the young Wolf, however, the more Monty understands: he can't guard Kit and his own heart at once, and he may very well lose both. - - - This books is part of the HEART'S DESIRE series, but can be read as a standalone.

Can you die of a broken heart? For a Wolf, the answer is yes. Can what's broken be mended? That depends. It's been a year since his mate's betrayal, and Martin lives for one thing: his kids. As a single dad, he devotes himself to ensuring his children thrive, but the busy schedule masks a case of chronic self-neglect. Still crushed by guilt for his past mistakes, Martin wants nothing for himself, and romance is the last thing on his mind. At least, that's what he thinks until an accident forces him to confront his problems and drops a sweet, charming art teacher into his life. Skylar West might be just the thing the doctor ordered, or he might be poison in disguise, and Martin isn't sure he has what it takes to find out, either way.

Finally free of the possessions that plagued him since childhood, Carlos moves to Spring Lakes and opens his own auto-garage. But even a life free of demons isn't a walk in the park, and Carlos soon has plenty of earthly problems to worry about. As he struggles to get a fledgling business off the ground and make ends meet, he barely has time to think of much else, and remains luckless in love. When his hapless assistant, Kyle, turns up dead, however, Carlos finds himself in trouble of a different kind, and the new detective in town-John Turner-has Carlos pegged as suspect number one. Meanwhile, Carlos has his own reasons for wanting the murder solved. Kyle's ghost won't leave him alone, and obviously has something important to say, but Carlos fears opening himself to the supernatural; if he lets Kyle through, he worries what else might follow. Reluctantly, Carlos and Detective Turner join forces, and gradually develop a mutual respect-and possibly attraction, as well. But Turner isn't completely unattached, and Carlos wonders if he's once again a distant second choice, or worse-a consolation prize. Will Carlos be third-wheeling forever, or will he find his own true love at last?
