Light’s Awakening by Michelle Murphy

A letter from a stranger shattered my grasp on reality.

Abandoned by my family and trapped beneath a curse, I thought I was destined to a life of movie nights with my plants. When I inherited my grandmother’s shop I discovered a world of mythical creatures, magical potions, and pleasure I didn’t know was possible. I’m not who I thought I was, and a new hope is blooming inside me.

But someone murdered my grandmother to steal her powers and now they’re after me. Now that I know who I am I’ll fight for my new life ‘til the bitter end.

Can I sort through the past to stop the murderer before they finish the job?

The Alacore’s Apothecary series is perfect for lovers of urban fantasy with a dash of spice and a side of mystery.

Happy Birthday and hello Mid-life crisis. Hi, I’m Mercury Rodgers and at forty-five I thought life was over. Dead-end job, empty nest…it was just me and the cat starting over. Again.

Or so I thought…

And the magic is just beginning…
Join Mercury and her cat Mr. Yow, as she discovers her hidden past, murder, and the world of magic waiting for her at the Phoenix Inn.
The mystery begins at midlife…

Forgotten Storm by A.R. Vagnetti

***The Revised and Expanded Edition***

How many years did I drag my ass from one small town to another, singing and bartending to make ends meet? I’ve lost count. As a matter of fact, I lost every memory of my life before the age of seventeen. And that’s not even the weirdest part. At night, in my dreams, I’m guided by a drop-dead gorgeous, panty-wetting fantasy who makes my body sing and claims to be my Guardian.

When the stunning man miraculously shows up on my doorstep, I don’t know whether to jump his bones or shoot him in the head. But the second his lips touched mine; it triggered an explosion of suppressed memories I was better off not knowing. And the things that go bump in the night? Yeah, those are real, and apparently, I’m some prophesied bringer of peace to all the monsters.

Not sure what dickwad wrote that thing, but this girl can’t even get through her day without coffee. How the hell does Mr. Tall Dark And Handsome expect me to face off with my greatest fear and embrace my so-called destiny?

We are so screwed.

The Man of Her Dreams by Dee S Knight

Cassandra Hudson has traveled across country to a small town in South Carolina to find a tall man with deep, blue eyes that she’s only met in her dreams. She “sees” that he’s in danger and wants to stop him from a possible death. But more than that, she’s desperate to solve a mystery that involves her husband who has been dead for over two years. Too bad for her, her dream man wants to solve the mysteries of her body more than help her find a solution to her problem.

When Dan Morgan stops to help a beautiful woman on the side of the road outside his hometown, he doesn’t realize that she will drag him into the world of the paranormal in an effort to find out what happened to her husband and the half million dollars he was accused of stealing. What he does realize is the strong attraction he feels for her, despite his distrust of anything mystical, and the undeniable power she holds over him using her sexy body as a lure.

Love—if they can capture it—will make it both easier and harder for them to find the answers they need.
