    Giants and fairies and murder - It must be Tuesday! 
    Life on the Enchanted Coast just got a whole lot more interesting. With expansions to the resort that include a wing for larger species - giants, to be exact - and a forest complete with fairy pools and cottages to attract woodland species, witch Destiny Maganti is facing a whole new influx of paranormal guests. 
    When a mysterious woman is murdered during the official grand opening and a fairy loved by all is accused, she has her hands full. For the first time ever, the resort is divided, and it's all she can do to hold it together. 
    On top of solving a murder, she's also tasked with finding a replacement manager for the tiki. From stuffy professor types to lackadaisical surfers, her applicant pool is as frustrating as it entertaining, but something's gotta give. After all, she's a witch, not a superhero. 
    Join Destiny, Tempest, Colin, and the rest of the Enchanted Coast crew on yet another magical, fast-paced adventure full of humor, fruity drinks, and homicide.

    "WANTED: Companion for sick wife. 
     
     
     
    Landing a job caring for the unresponsive wife of celebrity podcaster Colin Harrington could be the best thing that's happened to me in a long time. I get a place to live, a paycheck, and a way to salvage my comatose career. It's my last chance to finally prove the doubters wrong. I have to make it work. 
     
     
     
    All I need to do is survive a few months in the eerie, high-tech halls of the Harrington's mansion. But caring for Colin's wife Kara is testing the limits of my sanity. Doors seem to open and close on their own, shadows shift in the corners of my vision, and I can't shake the feeling that I'm being watched. 
     
     
     
    I wouldn't mind if it was Colin watching. He's been through hell, and it has been years since his wife's accident. Maybe it's time he moved on—and maybe I'm the only one who can help him. 
     
     
     
    Then I find a cassette tape that reveals a shocking truth . . . 
     
     
     
    Someone in the house has a dark secret—one they'll do anything to protect. But they're not the only ones with something to hide. 
     
     
     
    I have a secret of my own.
