The Hotel Reynard is the sleepy town of Spelling's chief attraction, and its new owner is a college dropout with commitment issues. Gemma has always loved the stories and history that surround the property--scary tales conjured by the locals to draw in tourists. But when she witnesses the inexplicable, Gemma refuses to consider the paranormal and searches for answers. She just never thought they would come in the form of hot, identical twin brothers living beneath the hotel's bell tower. When the truth begins to unravel, Gemma is forced to consider the possibility that the paranormal does exist, and it's woven into the core of the hotel, starting with Archer and Soren Hyde. Despite her skepticism, she must solve the mystery shrouding her family, hold tight to the hotel she adores, and try to resist the charms of the two mystical men haunting the Reynard.

"Then why are you associating yourself with him?" "First off, do not cut me off when I am talking... Second of all, that is none of your business." "You're the one who came to me, asking me questions!" she yelled defensively. "Lower your voice," he growled. "I-I have to go," she turned on her heel and began walking towards Junior's school. He would be getting out soon. "Wait..." he grabbed her hand. They both pulled back when sparks flew. Payton dismissed it, but Aubrey analyzed him. "I have a proposal," she looked at him questioningly before giving him her undivided attention. "I would like for you to come work for me. As a chef." "No," she said brusquely. He was toying with her and she'd look like a fool to take his offer. He didn't know how to really react. All he could do was really stand there and watch her. "At least think about it. Here's my card," he pulled out a card from the inner pocket of his jacket. He also took out a pen and scribbled his personal phone number on it. When he began writing his name at the top she snatched it away. "I know your name," she said icily. "Everyone does," she then speed-walked down the street and he watched her until she turned the corner. - Aubrey loves to cook, but her dreams fall apart in front of her eyes when she is fired from her job. Determined to provide for her son and finally make her family proud, she takes an offer from a Shadow. The Shadow will haunt her until she has no choice but to crave for him. He feeds off of her light until his darkness is consumed by it. But does that explains how she fell in love with the Shadow?

☆ 2022 WATTYS SHORTLIST ☆ Leonora 'Lena' Winterhaven is a witch on a dry spell. Somehow, she is the only one left in her coven (and possibly all of New York!) to still have her virtue intact at the age of twenty-nine. This would be fine and dandy, if not for a particular curse that afflicts one Winterhaven witch every half-century. Lena just happens to be that unlucky witch. If she remains a virgin by the age of thirty, Lena is in danger of losing all of her powers forever. And for Lena, forever is much too long a time to live without an enchanted shoe collection, perfectly-conjured cups of cappuccino every morning, nor the ability to deep clean her studio apartment with a snap of a finger. But what's a witch to do when these are her options? Vampires? Terribly morbid. Warlocks? Too self-absorbed. Werewolves? Absolutely frowned upon. ...even though Alpha Magnus MacCallan ignites her inner desires stronger than hellfire. 'What We Do in the Shadows' meets 'Sex & the City' in this enchanted tale of sexual awakening! Get ready for a journey filled with chills, thrills and cauldrons full of laughter ☆ [BOOK ONE IN THE WINTERHAVEN DUOLOGY]

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)
