  Veronika Layne is a sassy, tattooed forty-something (okay, forty-nine) newspaper reporter who never saw herself working for a big corporation. When her small town weekly paper is swallowed up by Singh Media Group, that's exactly what happens. Further complicating her job, a sexy new reporter has been hired from the competing paper, and while he's terribly attractive, he remains the competition. But the fantasies won't stop and her best friend and fellow reporter Aiden is even starting to notice. Stuck writing fluff pieces that might as well be ads, Veronika can't resist digging into rumors that a local real estate developer is destroying Native American burial grounds. Warned away at every turn by her editor, who is not a supporter of investigative journalism nor a fan of social justice pieces, Veronika worries that her story will never see the light of day. And who knows what trouble these fantasies of a midlife romance with her competitor will cause her—especially with Aiden? This is the first in the three-book Hot off the Press series.

  Kate Ballantyne's life was cruising along very nicely. No highs. No lows. Just the way she liked it. She had a good job and a casual relationship. Then Patsy Maclean had a sixtieth birthday and Kate learned her entire family would be attending the party, including her younger daughter, Ashley. 
    
  As an orphaned ten-year-old, Kate's young life had been turned upside down when she was sent to live with her aunt in the historic gold mining city of Charters Towers. For the quiet and lonely Kate, the extroverted Ashley Maclean had been her salvation. They were inseparable and their childhood friendship developed into love, a love Kate had thought would last forever. But Ashley had succumbed to family pressures and broken Kate's vulnerable heart. 
    
  It had taken Kate years to even begin to get over that betrayal and now, ten years later, that same Ashley Maclean was coming home. Kate told herself she was well over her, that Ashley had ceased to be a part of her life, that she'd moved on and made a life without her. She kept telling herself that. Yet her reaction to just the mention of Ashley's name had her wondering if her hard-won indifference was a battle she only thought she'd won.

  Our futures are left to fate. And if we're lucky, sometimes fate throws us a curve ball we couldn't possibly have seen coming. 
  Nineteen year old Lindsey Dennison returns home after her freshman year of college to find the life she had left existed no more. Her parents' marriage had imploded; her dad was on the run from the law, and her mother had somehow found her lost youth. All in less than a year's time.  
  Enter twenty-nine year old Taz Matthews, a sexy FBI agent and partner of her new stepfather,  
  and suddenly Lindsey's life is about to get really complicated. When Lindsey's safety and well-being are threatened,  
  Agent Taz is sent to protect her. The problem is, there's nobody to protect Taz when he finds himself becoming smitten with the sweet and innocent Lindsey. 
  Trying to fight the urge proves useless for this hot FBI agent and stuff is about to get real! He finds himself in uncharted territory with Lindsey Dennison. All he knows is that somebody is out to take what he now claims as his . . .

  if read in order since the characters interconnect.

  The drakkons have joined the battle, but have they the power to help win the war? 
  Princess Bryn Silva is a Strega witch, gifted with the ability to raise fire and mind speak to animals. It is a gift that helped her win the trust of Kaia—a drakkon queen in the prime of her life. 
  But the drakkons’ only weapons are tooth and claws, and they are useless against an enemy mounted on armored birds, and who possess weapons capable of eating through scale and stone with equal ease. After an aerie is attacked, the drakkons agree to a desperate alliance and the drakkon kin—a force of Strega witches mounted on drakkon back—is formed. 
  Despite initial success, Bryn quickly realizes that a handful of kin will never defeat the sheer number of gilded riders amassing off Arleeon’s shores. 
  The drakkons needed a weapon. They needed fire… 
  But the gilded riders were not the only danger closing in on Esan, the fortress protecting the eastern gateway into Arleeon. The Mareritt, a warrior race and an ancient enemy, also move on them, armed with weapons eerily similar to those the gilded riders use. 
  Weapons capable of destroying Esan’s mighty walls. 
  But the biggest threat of all could be the dangerous secrets being held by Bryn’s husband, Damon Velez, heir to the throne of Zephrine and a man she hadn’t wanted to marry but might well be falling in love with. 
  A man whose magic could give the drakkons fire, or utterly destroy them all.

  Long before the events of Stolen Tongues . . .  
   
   
   
  On the Cold Valley Indian Reservation, in the shadow of Pale Peak, Onwé Lopez struggles with the past as much as the present. By day, he watches his people abandon the Old Way as they flock to the local church. By night, he dreams of his childhood friend Akántha, who vanished from the rez decades prior. 
   
   
   
  Then, catastrophe strikes: a horrific accident brings a stranger to town with stories of unfathomable death. A ghastly figure wanders the night, peering into houses and terrorizing a tribal elder. Hideous whispers emanate from the nearby caves, beckoning Onwé inside—and promising to return everyone he's lost. 
   
   
   
  The Church Beneath the Roots is the story of a town ravaged by memory, riven by change, and haunted by a sinister presence as old as the mountain itself.
