Dans les salons où le champagne coule à flot, les Poserat règnent en maître sur la ville. Mais derrière les ors et les sourires mondains, leur empire se construit sur le sang, les cartes truquées et des deals qu'on ne retrouve jamais dans les journaux. Isadora Poserat a grandi au cœur de cette cage dorée. Elle a appris à mentir avant de sourire, à manipuler avant d'aimer. Rien ne doit la distraire de son rôle ou elle doit protéger sa famille, préserver leur pouvoir et étouffer les scandales. Mais lorsque Konrad Ruskay, l'ami d'enfance de son frère, devenu l'arme la plus dangereuse revient hanter son quotidien, tout vacille. Silencieux, imprévisible, rongé par ses propres démons, il est le seul capable de fissurer ses défenses. Entre eux, ce n'est pas une romance, c'est une partie de poker où chaque regard mise gros, et où le moindre faux pas peut coûter la vie. Dans ce monde de trahisons et de jeux interdits, il n'y a pas de place pour l'amour. Seulement pour survivre.

Conjure a demon to catch a killer? That's Appalachian witch Ellie's last remaining hope to solve a two year old cold case that haunts her nightmares. She's still grieving her late fiancé, but the few Boone residents that don't think she killed him herself have given up on finding the murderer. Kazerin, on the other hand, is not prepared for what awaits him when he answers Ellie's request. He's used to bargaining for lust or power, not closure, and he's a little nervous about what feelings stir up the longer he's around Ellie. Their feelings only entangle further the longer that Kaz stays in town, pretending to be Ellie's new fiancé as a cover for investigating the murder. Follow Ellie and Kaz in an alternate history where Others-- demons, vampires, angels, shifters, and many more beings-- roam the earth, magic is alive and burning bright, and blood runs deeper than just our ancestry. BLOOD BARGAIN is Book #1 in the Appalachian Magic book series.

He had one thing he desired. He had it, he had finally gotten it, yet... "Where is it?!" "Why would I tell you?" "Tell me where it is unless you want to die a most painful death!" "But if I die, wouldn't you lose your precious little treasure?" "Argh! Fine! What do you want?!" "Let's see, how about..." This story takes place in the same "universe" as my other story: Falling for You. Feel free to read that story, but you don't necessarily need to do so as the things that need explaining will be explained here as well, so you won't be missing out on anything. I do recommend reading it though if you don't quite understand what is happening. It might make some parts of the plot clearer.
