Jade is on the run. To escape her old coven, she pretends to be normal. Just some run-off-the-mill witch. Certainly not someone powerful and especially not a life weaver. Taking on the position of the town witch in a seemingly idyllic, quiet, and desolate town seemed like the perfect plan to lay low for a while until she meets Paxton--shifter, Supernatural Security Division agent, and worst of all: witch hunter. When a dark ritual is performed just outside of town, all signs point to the works of a powerful witch. The only problem: Jade is the only witch. Now she has to work with Paxton to find the real culprit before her identity is exposed. The longer she stays, the harder it gets to leave. As the investigation unfolds, it becomes apparent that a high politician is not only behind the attacks, but after something specific. The town guards its own secret, one that forces Jade to compromise her carefully crafted identity or risk the safety of her new home. When her past and present collide, Jade needs to finally face those who have been after her powers all this time without losing everything she's built in her new home. *** Cover made by @allrenwrote

But when her parents die in a terrible accident, and her childhood home is left vacant for two years, she returns to the tattered memories concealed inside the house on Clifton Bay. Everything is the same: the salty scent, lush scenery, and talkative town. Yet, one thing is new-the man across the bay, whose dock faces hers. Each evening, she watches her new neighbor sit with his dog and a cup of coffee, then disappear during the day. He is the only person who does not know her business, and she knows nothing about him. It is not until she gets hurt and discovers he is Weston Turner, the new Nurse Practitioner in their coastal town. Soon enough, they are swept up in one another's current, trying to stay afloat. ************* Short novel [roughly 55-60k words] Copyright of Anna Steffey All rights reserved.

Now published and available in PAPERBACK and KINDLE on AMAZON!! 🤍 "Your ready wit never fails to surprise and delight me, Brenya." He murmured, his lips only inches from my own. I blinked, my lips parting, as his heady scent encircled me. He licked his lower lip, running his teeth over it as his electric blue eyes burned into mine. The heat of his bare chest seeped through my thin cotton shirt, thawing my icy irritation. "Even when you're being cross." He added in a low voice. He leaned closer, before I could respond, and ran his teeth along my jaw. I suppressed a moan. "I wouldn't be cross if you weren't so keen on irritating me." I said, unable to hide the smile in my voice. I felt his answering smile against my neck. "How can I make it up to you?" He whispered, planting gentle kisses up and down the column of my throat. He moved to the other side of my neck, flicking his tongue once against the mating mark near my shoulder. My hands slid up his abdomen, exploring the dips and hard lines of his muscles. Heat uncurled deep in my belly, spreading lower, and lower, until I felt my panties dampen. He growled into my ear, sending shivers down my entire body. *~*~*~*~*~* ~#1 in ROMANCE 9/13/18~ ~#1 in ACTION-ADVENTURE 12/05/18 and 4/25/19~ ~#1 in ACTION-ROMANCE 1/16/19~ ~#1 in DRAGONS 6/9/19~ ~#1 in FAIRIES 7/20/19~ *~*~*~*~*~* ⚠️!!
