Reagan Blake is damn good at her job, the best. She makes a living solving cases and helping her community get out of jams. She fixes things. When the supernatural Community needs someone to step in and take care of situations they call on Reagan.
She loves everything about her job, that is until Oliver steps into her office asking for her help. She finds herself agreeing when all of her instincts are telling her to send him packing. Everything about him warns her that she should keep her nose out of this one. He's gorgeous, mysterious with that raw edge of danger and power. He's also a Warlock, which she knows should be enough to tell decline the job. But he's not just any Warlock, he's a member of the inner Circle of Warlocks. The most powerful and dangerous Warlocks alive. They are judge, jury and executioners for the Supernatural Community. Oliver's a walking advertisement for bad judgment calls and Reagan can't say no.

I'm just biding my time until I turn eighteen. Then, I can pack my bags and move out into the real world- with the normal humans. Until then, I just have to survive my grandmother's experiments, my sister's nasty temper, and the charms of the town's bad boy, Ash Goodwin. Easy...ier said than done.Complete

Unbecoming
Reagan woke up in the dirt. And that was a tad concerning. More concerning? Nothing feels right. Her skin, her appetite, the way animals react to her-it's like the whole world knows something she doesn't. Her best friend Lissy is convinced it's a curse. Her maybe-sorta-crush Ryan is watching her too closely. And Sean, her other best friend, a not-so-great werewolf who never takes anything seriously, might actually be able to find the answers she needs. But the local witches have their own rules, their own secrets, and their own reasons for keeping Reagan in the dark. All Reagan knows is that something happened to her. And if she doesn't figure it out fast, she might not be the only one who pays the price. Please do not solicit me with offers to create art, etc., for me. I can do my own art. Only contact me if you are very talented and are offering your services for free.

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.
