    On this season of The Catch, contestants must compete for love. And their lives.When the final four women in competition for an aloof, somewhat sleazy bachelor’s heart arrive on a mysterious island in the Pacific Northwest, they prepare themselves for another week of extreme sleep deprivation, invasive interviews, and, of course, the salacious drama eager viewers nationwide tune in to devour. Each woman came on The Catch for her own reasons—brand sponsorships, followers, and, yes, even love—and they’ve all got their eyes steadfastly trained on their respective prizes.Enter Patricia, a temperamental and woefully misunderstood local living alone in the dark, verdant woods, and desperate for connection. Through twists as unexpected as they are wildly entertaining, the self-absorbed cast and jaded crew each make her acquaintance atop the island’s tallest and most desolate peak, finding themselves at the center of an action-packed thriller that is far from scripted—and only a few will make the final cut.A whirlwind romp careening toward a last-girl-standing conclusion, and a scathing indictment of contemporary American media culture, Patricia Wants to Cuddle is also a love story: between star-crossed lesbians who rise above their intolerant town, a deeply ambivalent woman and her budding self-actualization, and a group of misfit islanders forging community against all odds.

    Breaking curses. Battling witchcraft. Revenge. 
    All in a day's work for Ozzy Turner, folk wizard. 
    Is a witch throwing curses your way? Something scary scratching at your window in the night? Then I've got just the charm for you. 
    Mostly, though, I find things. Lost treasures, missing loved ones—if you need something found, I'm your guy. 
    So when a grieving father hired me to track down a family heirloom stolen by a sticky-fingered hobgoblin, I was happy to help. 
    No one was supposed to wind up dead. Especially not me. 
    But they made a mistake when they put a bullet in my stomach and left me for the worms. 
    They didn't bury me deep enough. 
    If you like Jim Butcher, Kevin Hearne, Shayne Silvers, M.D. Massey, or Orlando A. Sanchez, then you'll love taking a trip to the sleepy town of Lost Falls, where not everything is as it seems.

    From murderous crowd-sourcing apps to nefarious faeries, Reflections is a collection of short stories posing a single question: where does goodness end, and evil begin?  
    In “Scales”, Jason and Akira find friendship in the aftermath of a cataclysmic pandemic, but the closer they become, the greater Jason’s secret grows. “Crowns” centers around Larry, who must pay a terrible price to save his comatose girlfriend. In “Veritas”, two detectives are gifted with a new and revolutionary truth serum that will reveal far more than they bargained for, and in “Mech”, the moral dilemmas deepen as a forbidden, unrequited love simmers amidst the turmoil of an alien invasion.  
    Ten soaring stories, each exploring original and thought-provoking perspectives of love, secrecy, loyalty, and destruction. Tangling future and fantasy, Reflections is a kaleidoscopic exploration of the frailties, foibles, and dreams of humanity.
