Book Description
A TOP 5 AMAZON BESTSELLING SERIES My fated mate rejected me-and now I've been captured by someone even worse. As the half-human outcast of the Cancer pack, I've been beaten and bullied my whole life. Gaining my wolf form and my fated mate is my only chance to change packs and hope for a better life. Except when my fated mate is revealed, he's the future alpha of the Leo pack-our worst enemies. He rejects me in front of everyone, just before the Leos slaughter my entire pack and murder my family. I manage to escape, but then I'm kidnapped by a far greater threat: the alpha of the mysterious lost pack. The 13th sign was banished from the Zodiac Wolves years ago, and I thought they were just a myth. They're real. They're holding me captive. And the dark, dangerous alpha is offering me something I can't refuse-revenge. Moon Touched is the first book in the scorching hot Zodiac Wolves series. This special edition hardcover also includes a special bonus scene from Kaden's point of view.

Book Description
Prisons, poisons, and passions combine in a gorgeously written fantasy noir by the author of the Morris Award-winning A Curse Dark As Gold. As a pickpocket, Digger expects to spend a night in jail every now and then. But she doesn't expect to find Lord Durrel Decath there as well--or to hear he's soon to be executed for killing his wife. Durrel once saved Digger's life, and when she goes free, she decides to use her skills as a thief, forger, and spy to investigate his case and return the favor. But each new clue only opens up more mysteries. While Durrel's marriage was one of convenience, his behavior has been more impulsive than innocent. His late wife had an illegal business on the wrong side of the civil war raging just outside the city gates. Digger keeps finding forbidden magic in places it has no reason to be. And it doesn't help that she may be falling in love with a murderer . . .

Book Description
Thomas Durling escaped his small-town upbringing for over ten years, until a single phone call drew him back. Told his mother has been diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s, he returns to the small northern Michigan town he once called home to find a mute stranger taking care of her in his stead. On the surface, Andre seems harmless enough, but Thomas has enough problems trying to deal with his mother’s illness. He doesn’t need a gorgeous young man to distract him, especially in a town that drove him away once already with its homophobia. But Andre has nowhere else to go. A wolf without a pack, he’s been on the run since witnessing his father’s murder, always looking over his shoulder, never looking ahead. Taking care of Thomas’s mother has given him a welcome sanctuary, as well as a place he can call home for a couple months. He wants to stay, but more importantly, he wants to help, even if Thomas isn’t ready to accept that they could actually be friends ...

Everything was all right until that photograph showed up in my mailbox. No, that isn’t true. Nothing has been all right since my sister vanished into thin air. The sign outside my office reads, Anne Lockhart-Private Investigator, but most of my time is spent trying to find Katie. The photo leads me to Rising Moon, a New Orleans jazz club where my sister was last seen. The club’s chief attraction is John Rodolfo, an incredibly sexy, brilliant and blind saxophone player. He has secrets—more than most. Katie is not the first person to disappear from Rising Moon, and she won't be the last. As I unravel the mystery, John's involvement becomes frighteningly clear. Voodoo altars, roaving wolves and touches of black magic create more questions than answers. With Mardi Gras approaching the city is wild, on edge, dangerous. But so is John Rodolfo. Will I be able to find my sister before I lose my both heart and my life?
