  Aurora and Leela have succeeded in their quest to balance work and family. Aurora has risen in the ranks at her company and has become a well-known environmental advocate. Leela’s business has grown and is the president of the farmers’ market. They have done this all while raising their conceived-by-magic eleven-year-old daughter, Kari. However, the time has come for them to tell Kari about her mystical origins, as Kari’s mind and body start to evolve in powerful ways. 
  As the family focuses on ways to test Kari’s new abilities, Aurora is placed in the public spotlight due to an ongoing public battle with Houston Energy. The corporate monstrosity dislikes Aurora, but no one despises her—or Leela—more than the social media group, God and Country, or G and C. Rather than get swept up in the hate, they focus on Kari’s emerging supernatural talents. 
  But that changes when the attacks migrate from the internet and move closer to home. 
  Will G and C’s taunts and threats cause Aurora and Leela to fall back in the shadows? Do they have what it takes to take the fight to G and C? Or, is Kari the key to saving them all?

  For the first time in her life, Allison Bradley feels like she's on the right path. She's left the west coast and as the holidays approach, she's settling into her new home in Clearwater Beach. A warm winter has never sounded so good, and she is absolutely not going to date anyone while she builds the next phase of her life. 
   
   
   
  Dating is the last thing on Drew Kingsley's mind. In fact, she's sworn it off for good. She'd much rather focus on her business—something she can control—and her grandmother, the one person she trusts will love her unconditionally. 
   
   
   
  Despite being thrown together by the meddling work of little old ladies, Allison and Drew do not want to like each other. But as the magic of the holidays surrounds them, even they will be forced to see that the walls they've built to protect themselves might be better taken down to let good love in.

  Naomi: I can't understand why—out of the four hockey players I'm sharing a house with this semester—Finn Howard's the one who catches my eye. The guy never smiles. He doesn't say much and disapproves plenty. 
   
   
   
  But, something about him feels familiar. Something about him feels safe. 
   
   
   
  I'm not falling for Finn, I'm just curious. Could I make him smile? It wouldn't hurt to try. I love a good challenge. And who knows, maybe it'll distract me from pining over a guy I meet online. 
   
   
   
  Finn: I don't get nervous unless I'm on the ice. So why does my chest feel tight whenever Naomi Lewis looks in my direction? She's witty, kind, and happy. How is someone that happy all the time? 
   
   
   
  If her sunny disposition isn't enough to distract me, the fact that her voice sounds exactly like the streamer I anonymously moderate for will. 
   
   
   
  If Naomi is her, she's in for a huge disappointment. I'm not the guy she thinks I am . . . not anymore, at least. And for that reason alone, I should stay away from her. I should stop trying to get closer. I should stop wanting her because she fell for someone else. Someone I will never be again. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  Dagon

  "I am writing this under an appreciable mental strain, since by tonight I shall be no more."
  H.P. Lovecraft's short story Dagon (1917) introduces several elements of the "Cthulu Mythos", which was to become a significant feature of his writing and was widely influential among other authors of science-fiction, fantasy and horror. It tells the story of a tortured, morphine-addicted man who relates an incident that occurred during his service as an officer during World War I. After his cargo ship is attacked by a German raider, the narrator escapes in a lifeboat, drifting for days until he wakes to find himself stranded on a strange, sun-scorched island covered in putrid, decaying fish and strange scupltures and monoliths—and stranger, nightmarish creatures…
  
  Though virtually unknown and financially unsuccessful during his lifetime, H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) is now regarded as one of the most influential 20th-century writers of supernatural horror fiction. Widely credited with inventing the "cosmic horror" genre—fiction that explores humanity's insignificance in the face of vast, unknowable cosmic forces—he also created the "Cthulhu Mythos", a shared universe of ancient alien beings and forbidden knowledge that has influenced generations of horror and science fiction writers.

  Yes, that was little Tuck. As a matter of fact, his name wasn't really Tuck, but before he could speak plainly he called himself Tuck. That was supposed to mean " Carl," but "Tuck" does just as well if one only knows it.
