Losing your soulmate to a herd of bloodthirsty chipmunks is never a good way to start your day. Not learning his name before his untimely decapitation? That's even worse. Wattpad-obsessed Sophie has never been in love. When a handsome new student proclaims his love for her after one conversation, she's delighted. Apparently, he's a werewolf (score!) and she's his soulmate. But before she can ask whether he's a possessive billionaire like all proper werewolves, he gets eaten by rodents. Very big, hungry rodents. Stuck in the center of the centuries-old battle between werewolves and werechipmunks, Sophie will do her best to stay alive, fall in love, and maybe even conquer a chipmunk or too along the way.

Side effects of a supernatural parasite may include the following: dry mouth, fatigue, auditory hallucinations, and the awakening of dormant magical powers likely to attract negative attention from the local secret society. Charlie Allison is a positive guy-and ambitious. At just twenty-two, he owns his own tour-guide business and his own bus, which he's exceedingly proud of. He spends his workdays driving tourists around the Pacific Northwest, catering, as of late, to a growing customer base: people with an uncanny interest in an old regional flood. Though Charlie doesn't understand it, he also doesn't like to look gift horses in the mouth . . . . That is until one of them forces him to eat a cheese danish at gunpoint, and he wakes up a day later in a hotel room with a mysterious, crying woman. When they try to go their separate ways, they both experience excruciating pain, which means, according to the strange woman, that they are "bonded" by magic. To break the bond, they must work together to find the antidote. But in their search, they soon discover that the havoc unleashed on their lives by their new condition is nothing compared to what the kidnappers have planned next.

Sky Sangrey is not a powerful witch by any stretch of the imagination. She divines the future from reading tea leaves for her clients. She doesn't even have to cast a spell to do it. When a new magic shop, Spellbound, opens two blocks away from her tearoom, it causes quite a stir of excitement in the sleepy little town of Wildemoor, Massachusetts. But it's not the contents that attracts so much attention. It's the handsome owner, Aiden Hall, that has everyone talking. He used to be an influential warlock in New York but no one seems to know the reason why he picked up and moved to quaint, quiet Wildemoor. Sky avoids Aiden and his shop for as long as she can. She has a horrible habit of getting tongue-tied around people she finds attractive. Not to mention, Aiden is far more skilled with magic than she has ever been. No, if Sky paid a visit to Spellbound to catch a glimpse of Aiden Hall's good looks, she is sure it would be utter disaster. But Wildemoor is a small town and she can't avoid him forever. So when Sky finally sets foot in Aiden's shop, her worst fears come true. She accidentally casts a love spell over Aiden. Now he's in love with her - the handsome, powerful warlock, head over heels for the frumpy little tea witch around the corner. And Sky knows she has to break the spell, sooner rather than later. But all she really wants to do is enjoy the fantasy while it lasts.

One year ago, the children of Hamelin disappeared in the middle of the night. With no clues about their whereabouts save a trail of footprints leading to the riverbank, their families believed them to be lost to the raging current. On the day of their memorial, the children return as suddenly as they left, but they are no longer the sweet kids the town lost. As the youngest person who was left behind, fourteen-year-old William is equal parts overjoyed and terrified to have his little sister back. With his father's temper as hot as his forge, William must protect Emma from the cruel treatment he has faced, but it soon becomes apparent that even greater horrors plague the children. Haunted by an alluring song that echoes in his nightmares, William must unravel the secrets of the Pied Piper's music before the rest of Hamelin falls victim to the same fate as the children. Trigger warning: This story contains physical and emotional abuse, animal abuse and death, child endangerment, suicidal thoughts, and mentions of a failed suicide attempt. Cover by @AriaOfStorms

Astraeus, a baby dragon, escapes from his old coven and stumbles upon a little shop that he spends months stealing from and hiding in to survive. The witch and familiars who live there are... strange. They know he takes from them but don't put up different wards, don't do things that could hurt him. They know that he has a hide out in the aster tree, that he lives close-instead of getting rid of him and forcing him to move, they visit him. Talk to him, leave him things, they're kind. Different. Stranger than any other witch or familiar he's ever met. Stray is not used to things that don't hurt. The gentleness is terrifying. He'd rather stay away from them than learn why they don't have sharp tongues or bruised knuckles. However, on the night of a bad storm, he gets trapped inside of the shop, trapped with kind strangers. After getting caught, he discovers another dragon. He learns that life is not meant to be painful. He learns that he can be loved. He's allowed to want things with them. To eat, to not fear the cold, to live instead of survive. Everything changes and Stray is determined to make them his hoard, to make it complete.

Sam is the most promising swordsman among this year’s crop of Paladin trainees...and knows it. Brash, cocky, and unbeatable with a sword (well, almost), Sam is the kingdom of Thule’s best hope against the violence wrought by demons. The only problem is that Sam is really Lady Samantha, daughter of the seventeenth Duke of Haywood, and if her father has his way, she’ll be marrying a Paladin, not becoming one. But Sam has never held much interest in playing damsel-in-distress, and so she rescues herself from a lifetime of boredom and matrimonial drudgery. Pity that Tristan Lyons, the Paladin assigned to train her, is none other than the hero of her childhood. He hasn’t recognized her as Lady Samantha--yet-- but if he does, he’ll take away her sword and send her packing. Sam is not the only trainee hiding secrets: Braeden is a half-demon with a dark past that might be unforgivable. Sam, Braeden and Tristan set out for the western coast, charged with rooting out an infestation of demons that has made the West unlivable. As they travel, they uncover a deep-seated corruption of power that threatens to derail everything they stand for. Rebellion stirs, led by a rival faction of warriors who tempt Sam to join them with an irresistible offer. A war between men is coming, and Sam must pick a side. Will saving the kingdom cost her life -- or just her heart? Reminiscent of Mulan, but with a medieval fantasy twist, Paladin is a tale of adventure, action, and romance.
