Ned is an odd, yet respected shopkeeper. At 35, he's one of the wealthiest men in town. Myra(29) is a bizarre, bossy witch that has little experience with other people. They've been friends ever since Myra accidentally poisoned him with a wonky potion. Then, her house burns down (she swears it was arson) and these two are forced into a cohabitative relationship (via Ned dragging her home with him). This is a collection of short snippets of their domestic, but relatively entertaining, lives.

With the kingdom so close to war with a neighboring country, the king of Irisanna gets increasingly desperate to form a treaty that would spare the lives of thousands of soldiers. As a last resort, he invites the threatening kingdom to a dance to discuss a treaty with hopes that the enemy ruler will fall in love with his daughter, Princess Quinn, who is known for her astounding beauty throughout the Four kingdoms. Quinn's twin sister, Rowan, was not gifted with such beauty, and is constantly tormented by her conniving stepmother. When she is denied from attending the dance, Quinn persuades her to go against their stepmother's wishes. There, Rowan meets a charming stranger, and she finds her dull princess life to be suddenly transformed in a way that she could never forget.

Abe Barrett is surrounded by ghosts - some of them are even his roommates! But now Abe's visions show something dark coming, and it wants Abe dead. ***** When Abe Barrett's family died, he started seeing ghosts. Soon he was living with three of them, and it turns out ghosts are just as eccentric as people. Abe is bothered by the ghosts constantly since he doesn't want to solve their murders, avenge them or do much of anything. He just wants to do his job and relax. His dreams, however, have been getting darker as people in town start to disappear. Soon Abe realizes there is something hunting him, and that same threat was involved with his family's deaths. A legacy of darkness is chasing Abe Barrett, and his supernatural roommates may not be enough to save him. [[word count: 60,000-70,000 words]]

A campy Beauty and the Beast! Julia Swift is terribly sexy. Unfortunately there's nothing she can do about it. While attempting to hide in plain sight from a world she fears only wants to use her, she is claimed as a personal stylist by vivacious socialite, Vérité Claire, a glamorous eccentric with a penchant for guiding talented oddballs to meet their potential. Her curious crew includes sassy housekeeper, Lotte, insanely territorial biographer, Bernard, and eventually Orson Vaughn, a hulking outcast living in self-imposed exile since being betrayed in his shameful past. In spite of Julia's trust issues and Orson's tendency towards self-sabotage, they grow closer through a series of exchanged favours until two people who are trying very hard to be invisible are seeing an awful lot of each other. Will a final favour which sees Julia helping Orson in a revenge plot against former adversaries put too great a strain on their unlikely relationship and prevent it from blossoming into something more? If Vérité Claire has anything to say about it then the answer is, "Not a chance, darlings!" So powder your noses because The Favoured, The Fair and Ms. Vérité Claire is a light-hearted Beauty and Beast-like romantic farce with a pie-throwing, rodeo-riding, chocolate covered, diamond studded French-tipped twist! Swoon responsibly. *No part of this book may be reproduced or used in any manner without the express written permission of the author.
