    To stop a ritual for power, bloodlines must be drawn in the sand. 
    A war that has raged for a millennia may come to a close as werewolf alpha Lukis attempts a ritual that will give him unspeakable power and incite a cataclysmic event affecting the whole world. He is willing to sacrifice everything for it, even his own offspring. Leading a coven of vampires, Ace aims to stop him, but she may be thwarted by her own past and a love triangle she wanted no part in. 
    Her sire and former lover Nero has decided he no longer wants to adhere to the separation he and Ace agreed on decades ago, longing to rekindle the flame between them. But Ace is resolute—the mission comes first, even if the pull toward Nero is stronger than she'd like to admit. Six, the progeny she sired in secret, arrives soon after, asking for help, and her acute instability threatens to upend the mission and Ace's reunion with her sire. 
    Blood is thicker than water, but family can be a real pain in the fangs.

    Good Witches, Good Magic and Good Food make good company! 
    Dead billionaires are not good for business! That's what Aunt Pearl complains to Cen when the dead body is found in the cozy family inn at Westwick Corners. 
    Still, it's not Cen's problem. She lives an ordinary life away from her witch-ful family for a reason. She got her ordinary fiancé and her ordinary job as a journalist using no magic whatsoever, and no inconvenient local murder is going to change her comfortable existence. 
    Even if the entire town is now accusing Aunt Pearl of murdering her guest. Even if her fiancé is acting weird and talking about seeing ghosts. Even if the town's sexy new sheriff, Tyler Gates, treats her like the most hexing of all the witches... 
    "...A bewitching, supernatural treat. If you love witch cozy mysteries you'll love Cendrine West and her wacky witch family!" 
    Westwick Corners isn't your typical small town. Or even a normal ghost town. It's where people go not to be found, and witches go to work their magic in secret. The combination makes for some interesting and humorous mysteries, and the witches are always at the center of the action! 
    Ruby's cooking, Cendrine's amateur sleuth and investigator activities, and Aunt Pearl's magic school need that one secret ingredient to propel the witches to fame and fortune and put the town back on the map. The witches are forever cooking up new business opportunities like The Westwick Corners Inn, The Witching Post Bar and Grill, and of course, Pearl's Charm School, where witches unravel riddles, spin magic spells, and create their own witch mysteries. Too bad they are forever getting distracted! If you like to unlock a mystery and laugh out loud, you'll love these witch mysteries!

    An author’s talents may seem obvious and indisputable as they move words and ideas into gathered phrases and stories.  
    But where do these ideas and stories come from?  A lonely thought that suddenly gathers form?  An inspiration from a Muse?  A suggestion from an everyday event? 
    Perhaps in the case of their darker, more malevolent stories, other forces are at work.  They help to nourish single words into sentences and paragraphs that ease themselves from the shadows and are suddenly upon us in twisted revelation that may thrill, may disturb, but will always engage and help us explore the edge of darkness where some of the very best literature patiently lurks …. waiting …. for the likes of me and you.

    "Notes from the Underground" by Fyodor Dostoyevsky delves deep into the mind of an unnamed narrator, presenting a profound exploration of human psychology and existentialism. Set in 19th-century St. Petersburg, the novel offers a compelling glimpse into the inner workings of a disillusioned and isolated protagonist. The story begins with the narrator, a retired civil servant, reflecting on his life and experiences. He introduces himself as a self-proclaimed "underground man," detached from society and harboring a deep resentment towards others. Through a series of fragmented and introspective monologues, the narrator takes readers on a tumultuous journey through his thoughts, emotions, and philosophical musings. "Notes from the Underground" is a profound and introspective work that invites readers to question their own existence and the complexities of the human condition. Dostoyevsky's exploration of the underground man's psyche offers a thought-provoking examination of alienation, morality, and the struggle for individuality in a rapidly changing society. Through its vivid portrayal of the narrator's internal turmoil, the novel remains a timeless and influential masterpiece in the realm of psychological literature. Read in English, unabridged.

    When bakery owner Clara Bennett organizes her small town's annual Pumpkin Festival, she expects pumpkin spice and everything nice—not a deadly dose of poison in the prize-winning pie. After the town's most disliked food critic collapses during the baking competition, Clara finds herself at the center of a murder investigation with more suspects than pumpkin varieties. Teaming up with her book club friends and a skeptical but charming local detective, Clara must sift through a patchwork of lies, rivalries, and long-buried secrets. From sabotaged recipes to hidden motives, every clue leads deeper into the community's dark underbelly. But as the festival continues and the killer remains at large, Clara realizes the next poisoned dessert might have her name on it.
