"An eerie feeling plagued the back of her mind, insisting that a supernatural force was in the room, or worse, within her!" When sixteen-year-old Katie Ryan moves to the infamous witch town of Salem, Massachusetts, the last thing she expects to encounter is a handsome and charismatic "popular" boy who insists they should be together despite his scheming friends - a group of "in-crowd" students that label Katie an "outsider" and make her the object of their cruel pranks.

In the fog-drenched town of Mystic, Connecticut, shadows hide more than secrets--they hide her. Detective Sophie "Iris" Scott has made a name for herself solving the cases that others can't.

By night, she watches the detective from the shadows, torn between obsession and something far more dangerous: affection. As their partnership deepens, so does their connection--an intoxicating blend of suspention, trust, and forbidden desire.

As the Crow Falls | ✔
Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.
