Light in a Storm
A sequel to Hannah and her Happy Harem, however Hannah is not required reading before reading this story. Light in a Storm is a stand alone book. Also it is very very different from Hannah. Adult themes, no smut. Cassi, Penny, Pandora, and Lumi are four sisters being raised by five loving parents. Cassi is a dragon like their father Caspian, Penny and Pandora are both wolf shifter's like their dads Max and Holland. Lumi however, didn't take after any of her parents. Aspen was Fae, and Lumi was Fae. Except where Aspen's element was the forest and green magic, Lumi had somehow been born as the very first electrical Fae with unknown powers. It isn't easy being the only one of your kind in the world. Lumi and all her sisters face unique challenges as they grow, some able to handle the path fate had set for them easier than others. Cassi, Penny, Pandora, and Lumi grow up and each has their own challenges to face. Lumi had been living a simple quiet life, until Cassi pulls Lumi into one of her own schemes. All Lumi had wanted was to help her sister, and see some of the wider world outside her pack. Instead she got much more than she bargained for.Concluida
The Alpha Twins and their Runaway Witch
Another sequel to Hannah: and her happy harem, after the original sequel Light in a storm. However, neither is required reading to enjoy this story. Just adds extra depth and dimension to some characters if you have read the previous stories about the Greenrivers family. August and Alex are the beloved twin wolf Greenrivers brothers. Their uncle Kyle has assumed the role of future Beta for the pack, leaving the two of them free to explore and sow endless wild oats across the continent as they explore on their motorcycles every road possible. Raised in a prosperous pack, in a loving large family, Alex and August have never wanted for anything in their entire lives. Even though they are already twenty four, neither brother is feeling the pressing need to find their mates anytime soon. Their parents had come together when the timing was exactly right, a love story for the ages, Alex and August were certain everything would just fall into place when it was right. Neither were expecting what the moon goddess had in store for them. Nor were the sheltered, loved, and privileged brothers prepared to have a mate that came with a mountain of baggage from a traumatic past. They were even less prepared when she ran from them after they find her. This was not how they imagined their love story beginning.Concluida
