  Ivory Bainbridge thought she had it all figured out. On the cusp of achieving her dream career of owning a restaurant and bar in the heart of Chicago, the only thing standing in her way is debt. Then life throws her a curveball. 
  When she mysteriously inherits a farmhouse at the end of a road in Missouri, she is thrust into a world of beliefs she doesn't understand.  
  Selling the property will pay her mounting debt and give her enough extra to make a down payment on her dream. Could this be the big break she needs?  
  Standing in her way is a catch: she has to live on the property for six months. But Lisa McHale, the resentful granddaughter of her benefactor, is going to make sure she doesn't. 
  As Ivory navigates life in an unfamiliar world, why do strangers keep showing up at her door, all for the same reason? And who is the eccentric elderly woman who befriends her? This odd woman and her wisdom with plants and herbs might hold the key to understanding why Ivory, an outsider, was chosen to inherit. 
  Is she truly an outsider, or does she belong in this quaint town more than she ever could have imagined? 
  Follow Ivory on her journey from big city life to unfamiliar rural isolation, during which she realizes she has inherited far more than just an old house outside a small town.

  Carson Ballard isn’t only lactose intolerant—he’s intolerable. No wonder his assistant quit on him without notice. 
  Okay, okay, he has a right to be angry at me for dumping an armful of sticky breakfast plates on his head. It was an accident, I swear. 
  But now I’m out of a job—not that I’m any good at waiting tables—and Carson’s mother is offering to hire me. 
  There’s no way I can work for him. I may be from the sticks, but Davis Turner is nobody’s fool. Not anymore. 
  I refuse to be Carson’s next victim. Something will turn up. I’ll take anything. As long as I can hide away in the city, where my ex can’t find me. 
  Except my bank account is at rock bottom and rent is due. I’m running out of food. And time. 
  I guess I have to work for Carson. He’ll be my boss—nothing more. I can keep things professional. 
  There’s just one little problem. 
  Carson may not be as horrible as I thought. He’s trying so hard to right the wrongs of his father and brother, who left him with a mess most people would walk away from. 
  But Carson Ballard isn’t most people. And he won’t accept defeat. 
  Damn you, Carson. 
  Why do you have to be so nice...so generous…so wickedly funny and so, so sexy? 
  You’re offering me a future…if I can ignore the mistakes of my past. 
  You’re an impossible man who’s making everything possible. 
  How can I not fall for you?

  She escaped the monster realm. 
  Fate dragged her back—twenty years earlier. 
  Waking up in the past wasn’t on Moriah Shaker’s bingo card, but after surviving a brutal world of cannibals, rabdogs and lethal poppy fields, it happens anyway. Now, she has one chance to save her mother, undoing the death that started it all. 
  First, she must return to Hakeldama, where survival is never guaranteed and destiny always demands sacrifice. At her side is Jasher, the ruthless, axe-wielding executioner who melts only for her. Until he’s trapped in a monstrous form, becoming a weapon for her destruction. To him, she’s an enemy. To her, he’s everything. 
  Armed with only a cryptic journal that whispers of a lost gemstone, Moriah is forced to bargain with a tricky water maiden who is equal parts redemption and ruin. Worse, she’s transforming into something she no longer recognizes: The Oracle Great and Terrible. 
  As secrets unravel and a forbidden attraction rekindles, Moriah must decide what she’s willing to sacrifice to unravel time: the past she’s desperate to save . . . or the man she isn’t supposed to love.
