Raven Danvers has problems. There’s school. Her social life (or lack thereof.) And the fact that she’s stuck working at her mom’s new age store on Venice Beach… even though she’s the last person who’d ever believe in magic.
Everything changes when a demon attacks her on the night of her birthday. Luckily, she’s saved by Noah—a mysterious, sexy wolf shifter who appears and disappears before she can ask him any questions.
Panicked and confused, Raven returns home to yet another shock: her mother is missing. The mystery deepens when Noah arrives at her house moments later. He claims that Raven’s mother has been taken by the same demon who attacked her in that alley—and that the demon will soon be returning for Raven.
It turns out that despite his heroics in the alley, Noah isn’t particularly interested in Raven’s safety. He was only after the demon chasing her. Raven, however, needs Noah. He may be her only hope of saving her mother.
Grudgingly, Noah agrees to take Raven along on his demon hunt. He reasons that using her as bait might be his best chance of drawing out the demons.
But things don’t go as planned. As family secrets from Raven’s past emerge and the demons close in, Raven and Noah discover that there is more to the mystery than they ever imagined. The key to saving Raven’s mother and stopping the demons is a shock to both of them. With time running out, Raven must put her faith in Noah.

Fly with the Arrow: A Bluebeard Inspired Fairytale (Bluebeard’s Secret Book 1)
By Sarah K. L. Wilson / Genre: Epic, Fantasy, Science Fiction & Fantasy
He’s been stealing brides for centuries and now he’s stolen her.
Izolda is as chilly and practical as her icy homeland. The prospect of an arranged marriage to a much older man doesn’t worry her. But when a stranger arrives, kills her would-be husband and claims her as his bride instead, citing a law she’s never heard of, she is left with a tangled problem on her hands.
On the one hand, her king wishes for her to become a spy for her homeland.
On the other hand, her new husband needs her as his pawn in a dangerous all-consuming fairyland game that might determine the fate of her nation more than a king ever could.
To make matters worse, her husband does not hide his former brides from her — or his intention that her fate will be the same as theirs. But his surprising kindness, hidden depths, and hinted plans might just persuade her to join him despite that.
Choosing wrong will mean the desolation of everyone she loves, for failure in this world will mean ruination in the other. And trusting the wrong people here, may well sink nations there.
Worse yet, her heart seems to be falling very quickly in love with the worst possible choice of man — her husband.
The stakes couldn’t be higher and Izolda couldn’t be more torn.
With a crafty husband, a severed-head best friend who gives surprisingly good advice, and the common sense her mother gave her, Izolda must choose well. Can she win at a game a thousand years in the making?
