Echoes From The Woods de Bookshelves1992

There is a forest where the trees speak in riddles... where moonlight bends, and shadows bleed through bark. Where the leaves whisper names long forgotten. They call it The Keratin. No one enters willingly. Not unless they're called. Corey didn't choose this path. He followed the sound- a hum only he could hear. A rhythm older than magic. With him walks only his cat, Cheese-orange, stubborn, and far more than he appears. Together, they step beyond the veil, into a world shaped by forgotten spells, shattered realms, and the lingering voices of witches and warlocks who were never laid to rest. But Corey isn't just a wanderer. He's a wizard in training, and The Keratin has chosen him for a purpose. Its roots are tangled with trials. Its branches twist with secrets. And at its heart lies something ancient... A sleeping magic, waiting to awaken. Each echo brings Corey closer to the truth- about the forest, about his bloodline, and about the role he must play when the final spell is spoken. But the woods do not offer wisdom freely. And not everyone who enters the Keratin or Salem ... makes it out with their soul.

Anya is a user of external magic, a witch, bonded to a crow familiar. She and her elder brother Gabe work together to pay off the debts incurred by her deceased parents and take care of their twin younger siblings. Life is hard enough for Anya, but it only gets worse. After months away working, Gabe returns nearly dead. Her efforts to save him are in vain. She is left with Gabe's cryptic last words, urging her to flee. Anya does not believe Gabe's feverish ramblings and finds herself in the sights of a cruel man. Gabe failed his last job and it's time for Anya to pay up... or else. Second book of my completed Wizards and Warlocks Trilogy. Anya could likely be read as stand alone, but I recommend you read them in order.

"You know it won't go to the West," he said dropping his voice. "Maybe you're wrong. Who knows," she shrugged. Her shoulders had slumped but she had managed to not let any tears spill. "Baum knew what he was doing when he made the West wicked, Mary," he hissed. "The East was wicked in that book too, dumbass," Mary retorted. Jacob's hands went into fists to keep from pushing at his hair. The tree behind them began to shake slightly. The ground gave a tiny rumble. *************************************************** Mary's father recently passed. But she is finding out it might not have been from natural causes... Family adversaries threaten everything while influential other worldly authorities pull the strings. Mary will have to work with an unlikely ally from her childhood to navigate their new found powers and reclaim balance. Meanwhile... one dark soul is climbing the ladder of chaos.

An Alpha's Duty de Littlepearl95

Ryan King is an Alpha desperately trying to hold his pack together. Between the blood thirsty enemy packs wanting to take what's his, a council that seems permanently against them and the arrival of his very unexpected mate, Ryan will have his work cut out to protect everyone he loves. He thought he understood his world and the people around him but things are not what they appear. Can he and his new mate figure out their entwined, dark history? Can they be the first to break the cycle? Or will they succumb to the curse that has haunted both their kinds? *********** They were under attack. Suddenly everything happened all at once. The two wolves partially shifted and attacked the closest enforcers to them. Throwing them into walls with ear shattering cracks. Although the enforcers were all paranormals, not one of them could best the brute strength of a shifter in one to one combat. Ryan could hear the growling of his pack far too close to the house for it to be a good sign. "They're coming!" Ryan saw the old seer point avidly towards the window as a huge timber coloured wolf crashed through the panes. **************** Highest ranking: #16 in eroticromance 09/05/2018 #01 in shadowwalker 02/08/2021 **Warning this book is for mature audiences and contains sexual scenes and swearing.

Lenora's Grimoire de Falling-Rivers

Cherish thought she'd escaped her past years ago--settled down in some forgotten, sleepy town, gotten a steady job at the local library, and subtly hidden the witchcraft books donated from the local covens from the public. Cherish Harmond was wrong. Her cedar tree had screamed at her before dying on her front lawn that morning. Cherish hadn't even realized trees could scream. Faced with the desperate plea for help from a stranger, the past she thought she had successfully outrun has returned, and she must come to terms with it, to use her powers for good--because if she doesn't, she might unleash a curse onto her sleepy, normal hometown forever. **Submission for ONC 2021 ***Please note, this is also available on Amazon via ebook and paperback***

"I am visiting under unusual circumstances. I won't bore you with the details but I have lost something of mine and I was hoping you could help me find it." " I'm sure I can help you find whatever you need." He was slightly confused. "But what exactly have you lost?" "My mate." Silence. "Does she know you are looking for her?" "Oh yes, she knows." Camila started choking on her food. She tried to maintain her spluttering so she wouldn't draw attention to herself. Taine noticed and decided to keep going. His eyes bored into her. "She actually decided to run from me... I don't know if she was a coward or just too weak and selfish to even consider giving me chance." She threw her cutlery down and stood up, leaning over the table. Her teeth were bared and a low growl emitted from the back of her throat. She felt hairs rising on her arms and neck. Usually even-tempered, she was now bubbling with rage. Taine didn't react well to her growl and mirrored her pose. He was trying to put her in her place, into submission. She was not having it. --- Destiny's collide, they crash and they scar. Rough seas, tidal waves, fighting for dominance in an ocean so deep... Despite the viscous ink of lies and deceit, secrets, sins one breath from leaving the lips. Love is the serenity that can calm all storms and transform all hardened hearts. For to love is to be set free from all shackles that bind you to the darkness. Whether it is the red string of fate or the curse of the moon, you cannot hide from your destiny. IT WILL FIND YOU. So...will you fight it?

Forgotten Wolf de Siberiantiggy

As danger looms and tempers flare, he'll have to find a way to break down her walls before it's too late. *** Scars...some are worn on the outside and read like a book, others are hidden on the inside, unseen but shape every fabric of our being. Alpha Chris has his share of scars. He wears them like badges of honour, having earned them protecting his pack. Jess carries hers on the inside, a collection of secret shame... After Jess breaks free of an abusive ex, she goes home to her farm in the remote countryside to pick up the pieces of her shattered life. She tries to bury her trauma and move on, determined not to let anyone get too close again. Chris has given up on finding his mate and focuses all of his energy on his pack, growing colder and more distant with every passing year. Just when he least expects it, she falls into his lap, smelling like his best friend and wanting nothing to do with him. What happens when a battle-hardened Alpha who is used to getting his way comes up against a stubborn woman set on walling herself from everyone? More than brute strength is needed to break through those walls and reach her. When hidden enemies threaten both their lives, will he be able to reach his Goddess-given gift in time? Or will pride and tempers ruin their last chance at happiness? The Moon Goddess has a plan that neither understands. *** BOOK 1 OF THE FORGOTTEN WOLF SERIES

"When do I get to meet you wolves?" I ask. "Whenever you want. Just not right now," Blake says. "We would lose control and they will take you right here right now." "What are your wolves saying?" I ask. "To smash you to the wall and pound you, so you won't be able to walk for the next week," Kole says. I look into his eyes to see them pitch black. I know that I am talking to his wolf. "I'm Tyler, Kole's wolf. It's so good to finally meet the love of my life." "It's nice to meet you Tyler," I say. I look over into Blake's eyes to see them matching Kole's. "What's your name?" "Alex," he responds. His eyes look over my body. "Your are so beautiful princess. Please let us mark you. Please," he begs. "Alex, that is enough." I look into Kole's eyes to see them back to normal. Alex whispers in my ears, "one day, we will go so rough with you and you will be screaming our names." I shiver under his words. He smirks knowing the effect he has on me.
