  The last year had not been kind to Det. Helen Lipscomb. She'd bungled a major case, been reassigned from her squad, and had her partner taken away from her. A trained homicide investigator, she could only watch from the sidelines as her former teammates nabbed the bad guys. Then a new serial killer appeared, one who targeted the detectives themselves, and Helen found herself back in the action as she raced to put the pieces together and keep any more of her fellow cops from falling to the killer's gun.

  My new witch powers tether me to the grumpy orc. I can't get more than twenty feet away from him! 
   
   
   
  When I storm out of my ex's engagement party, a meddling goddess whisks me away to Faerie and marries me to a massive grump of an orc. As if that's not enough, I can't leave his side without my teleportation magic throwing me straight back into his arms! 
   
   
   
  I dreamed of leaving my small town and traveling, but I never imagined anything like this. I feel like I landed in one of the books I love, with fated mates and close proximity dialed up to eleven. Wranth's gorgeously muscled body and exciting air of warrior prowess sure don't hurt any either. 
   
   
   
  Then there's his swoon-worthy vow to protect me. I'm supposed to reopen the doors of Faerie and return magic to Earth—if enemies don't stop me first. It'll also break the tether and allow me to go home to friends and family. But the longer I'm with Wranth, the harder it is to picture life without him . . . 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  The Flax is a fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen about the development and use of the flax plant. The story was first published in 1849 in the periodical Fædrelandet.
  The fairy tale tells the story of the journey of the flax plant, which begins its life full of optimism, dismissing the warnings of the fern about the fleeting nature of life. Flax is ultimately uprooted and undergoes a series of painful transformations, first becoming fabric – flax, and later practical items, such as linen. Despite the pain, flax finds purpose and joy in its new forms, believing that each change brings a new opportunity to contribute something valuable to the world.
