Harlow
Harlow and Caspian Blackthorn left Luma to let the dust settle back home. While enjoying some much-needed rest and relaxation, they strategize their search for the origins of the sentient sword.
The road trip leads them to a black-market auction where fae are selling dangerous items to fae and mundanes living outside the hubs. When Harlow and Caspian get their hands on a treasure chest that was extracted from a sunken pirate ship, they uncover not just a piece of the sword’s past, but the Collective’s.
The treasure they find is more valuable than gold—treasure that powerful fae would kill for. And without magical friends to call for help, Harlow, Caspian, and the sword will have to fend for themselves. So much for a relaxing vacation …

The flow of ambiguous Love has created unforeseen defenders of our world: Tinkering Moon Druids, Awakened Treants, Japanese Environmental Guardians, and Floating Tiki Gangplank Heads, mostly within the setting of Elemental Spirit Rituals, Mystic Mountain Cemeteries, and Galactic Portals.  
Occurring four years after the events in the book, Uka Buka, Ki La’dori joins forces with the Spirit of Love and Kindness, Toko Tuki. Crippled, half-blind, and happy to be alive, our protagonist’s overwhelming emotions and newfound power begin to unlock a secret history of Mother Earth and her magically imbued descendants.  
Between assisting his Californian friends in saving the planet and protecting a portion of the Japanese National Forest with old school Monkey Wrenching tactics, Ki works through how to fix these dire problems by using what is relentlessly racing through his veins, Love.  
With so much happening and too few Earthly Spirits to calm the transgression of new world orders rising into the glare of oblivion, our contemporary heroes have to learn extraordinary magic. 
The Earth is constantly under threat and unappreciated, so how do a few save a planet with only hints of magic and merry little tiki spirits? Will love kindle betwixt foes, or will retribution be the cold revolution of death?

A Sinister Love

Spencer Hixon

A demon falls in love... 
When Scribble gets fired from her desk job in Purgatory, she's completely unprepared for her new assignment on Earth as a Sinister—a demon that tempts a human. Her only exposure to the human world is through the various books she's collected over the years. Her boss, Belphegor, gives her only a few weeks to make her client, Paul Taylor, add enough weight to his soul that he ends up in Hell, but all her attempts to make him sin end up backfiring. 
With the help of her mentor, Rotworm, she borrows the body of a succubus to tempt him better; however, she soon starts falling in love with him instead. She must make a decision—give in to her desires and damn him to Hell, or surrender love for the sake of love. 
But when she finds out what happened to Paul's previous Sinister, Scribble uncovers clues pointing to a massive scheme by her superiors—one that threatens to tip the balance between good and evil, putting all of humanity at risk! Only an act of love can stop these diabolical machinations, but Scribble and Paul must deal with their dark pasts before they can move forward. With time running out and both Heaven and Hell after them, can Scribble confront the Demon Prince before it's too late... without losing Paul?

Warlord and the Waif - A SciFi...

Chloe Parker

An alien warlord. An abducted activist. And the curse that binds them together.
WARLORD AND THE WAIF is a high heat alien Beauty and the Beast retelling. Fans of possessive, alpha heroes and headstrong heroines will love this steamy science fiction fairy tale.
ELLA: I didn't ask to be abducted by aliens, but the Hyperboreans took me anyway. Now, they've left me on the dying planet of Myste, indentured to the warden of a prison in the clouds.
And my captor? That's Calder, a former Skoll Warrior and the devil himself.
Calder is cold, cruel, and cranky, trapped on Myste by a curse laid on him centuries ago. He's made it clear that we aren't going to get along, but I see the hungry way his eyes roam over my curves, like he would love to devour me. And I can't say the feeling isn't mutual, as his hard muscles and broad shoulders don't go unnoticed. I ache for his touch, but I won't let him break me down. I'm going to escape from this castle, whether he likes it or not.
CALDER: From the moment I saw her, I had to have her.
The headstrong, stubborn human enrages me, even as she leaves me hungry for her touch. I thought my heart had gone cold after centuries trapped on this planet, but she warms my skin until I burn.
Her touch is the only thing that eases the pain of my curse, and my desire for her grows stronger every day. I know that she hates me, but I can feel the desire that tethers us to one another. I will have her, if it's the last thing I do.
