Isa Epley is 21 years old and wise enough to understand that the purpose of life is the pursuit of pleasure. In her diary she chronicles her New York City adventure during the sweltering summer of 2013. By day, Isa and her best friend, Gala, sell clothes in a market stall, pinching pennies for their Bed-Stuy sublet and bodega lunches. By night, they weave from Brooklyn to the Upper East Side among a rotating cast of celebrities, artists, and bad-mannered grifters.

Jess starts to realize that their hour together is the brightest part of her life. But Ash isn’t telling her everything.

Så er Elvira Gregersen på banen igen! Den kronisk arbejdssky og stærkt overvægtige bordelværtinde med det skarpe hoved og det varme hjerte må endnu en gang kæmpe mod underverdenen og dens oppumpede muskelmænd. Hun glemmer i sin forretningssucces og sin kamp mod rockerne både tvillingebroren Sixten, der endelig er kommet ud af sit heroinmisbrug, og Henry, hendes meget omsorgsfulde kæreste, måske fordi hun også - meget modvilligt - er blevet barnepige for en 17-årig champagnepige fra Hellerup, der er gymnasieelev om dagen og noget helt andet om natten.

When it rains, it pours...and sometimes love finds you even when you can’t find yourself. Fate has given me a second chance at the happiness I once knew in the odd Southern town of Grimm Cove. But only if I can come to terms with some rather eye-opening revelations. Supernaturals are a real thing. I'm a witch. My high school sweetheart, who happens to be the Chief of Police in Grimm Cove, is my fated mate and a wolf-shifter. Ghosts exist and can be very nosy and meddlesome. Someone is murdering witches left and right.

A storm is brewing and so is a budding romance. I've been told I'm a force to be reckoned with. That I blow onto the scene like a tornado. I've stopped caring if that's a compliment or a dig. Now I just wear it like a badge of honor. So when life threw me a curveball and I ended up going from a cushy job in New York City to the tiny Southern town of Grimm Cove, I thought I was ready for anything. Ha! Not quite. You see, Grimm Cove is teeming with supernaturals. And since I've known they exist for a hot minute, I'm still in a state of total shock.
