  WHEN THE STARS ALIGN, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. 
   
  On stage at an awards banquet is the last place Lexi Cole expected to drown. But as she accepts the award for top seller at her realty firm, something unusual catches Lexi’s eye: a man surrounded by a dark haze. Then she hears a woman screaming for help, and the taste of salt water overwhelms her. Just as Lexi’s throat begins to close, the man leaves the room and the sensation of drowning abruptly stops. Later that night, the man dies of an overdose, and Lexi learns about the traumatic boating accident that killed his sons and tore his family apart. 
   
  Lexi wants to believe it’s a bizarre coincidence. Any other explanation would disrupt the normal, comfortable life she’s worked so hard to build. Lexi is an expert at denial, a pro at fitting in. But as more strange events unfold, Lexi can’t deny the truth: something is changing inside her. She feels other people’s emotions, sometimes even glimpses their private memories. 
   
  By embracing her new abilities, Lexi can help heal people—though not until she confronts the past she’s spent a lifetime burying. But when a vision reveals her husband is in danger, Lexi must decide: face her inner demons or lose the person she loves most. 
   
  Atmospheric and emotional, Everything We Never Knew is the gripping story of one woman embracing her power, no matter what the world thinks.

  Sometimes you can't go home, and that would've been just fine by me. 
   
   
   
  I'm Hazel Kinsey, a special agent for the FBI, and I'm also a witch. Seventeen years earlier, I packed up my belongings and my squirrel familiar Tizzy, and I left my paranormal hometown of Paradise Falls for good. Or so I thought. 
   
   
   
  When my best friend from high school, Lily Mason, calls and asks me to investigate her brother's murder, I can't say no. She was there for me during the worst time of my life, and it's my turn to return the favor, no matter the personal cost. 
   
   
   
  Going home is harder than I imagined. My grumpy, hot high school crush, a bear shifter named Ford Baylor, has become a grumpy, hot police officer who's not happy to see me. Unfortunately, I can't stop thinking about him. All these years away, I imagined him married to his bear shifter sweetheart and living the white-picket-fence dream. But Ford is single, and he looks ready to strangle me. Apparently, I'm his mate. Who knew? 
   
   
   
  On top of that, there's a sinister force at work in Paradise Falls, and I have to solve the mysterious murders happening around town if I want to prevent my best friend from becoming the next victim.
