I thought I'd left my old life behind me. But then I found myself with a job I couldn't refuse - a counselor at Beldame, a mysterious manor with even more mysterious guests. These guests have problems, which they want me to solve. Professionally, I could deal with humans and their issues - my massive student debt was evidence of that. But these guests aren't human. At least not entirely.

Abraham Jackson’s tenure as Director and Chief Therapist at Beldame has been rewarding in so many ways. He’s rekindled his passion for counseling, helped beautiful women overcome their inner demons, and earned their love and adoration.

Instead, Drake got abducted, tossed into a fantasy world, and almost ritually executed by a pro-wrestler monk with performance issues. After stabbing his rather idiotic kidnapper to death, he magically inherits the old fart’s massive mansion, servants, mountains of gold, and deadly magic powers... which would be great if it also didn’t paint a giant target on his back.

Damien had planned it all out. He had the support of his wealthy parents, loyal friends who shared his goals, even a high-ranked Core just waiting for him to use.

Was, in the past tense. Because Damien just died.

I thought I was inheriting a life of glitz and glamour, but all I got was a castle that even a reality television show wouldn't touch.

Merman Jack is a terrible virgin sacrifice. Mostly because he isn’t virginal. At all. Hopefully the Sea King won’t notice. For Jack, the human world has too many wonderful temptations, and too many alphas to resist. He only has two months left before he has to give himself to the Sea King, and he doesn’t want to spend them in the cold, dark catacombs where the Mermen of Rixton live. It may be forbidden for Jack to go to shore, but when did that ever stop him?

Tonight I meet my mate. I don’t know anything about him, including his name. According to fox shifter tradition, my parents chose him for me. For the next month we’ll be living together in a remote cabin. That’s how fox shifters form a bond. We burrow with our intended for a full month of winter. My mothers say my new mate is kind, and he won’t mind that I don’t look like other omegas. But I’m nervous. What if he’s disappointed? Or even worse, what if he’s someone I could never bring myself to love?

Marla survived another mad caper, one she solved by the skin of her teeth. Her ankle might never be the same after all that creature humping, and there are some Haveners she’ll never be able to look at the same, but at least no one’s in love with her who doesn’t want to be. She only has the one boyfriend now, and Quade Contonn is more than enough wizard for her. In fact, he’s the perfect fit. After decades apart, reuniting with her first love couldn’t be going better.

Being a single mother is hard, especially when all your family is dead. After a reckless night of drinking and a pity party for one, I may have taken a few sexy men to bed. Seven years later, after losing my job and our house, I found a job advertised in a local paper for a live-in cleaner. Everything was going perfectly, until strange incidents started happening around the manor. My daughter is experiencing distressing symptoms, unlike anything I have seen before.

Losing my job was bad, but ending up on my witch of an aunt's doorstep as a last resort was even worse. Her offer?

The one staffed by monsters who aren't just people in costumes, including two in particular who draw me in immediately.
