Join Nora Black, the fifty-one-year-young owner of Scents & Scentsability, as she navigates life in the charming resort town of Garden Cove. Since her near-death experience during a hysterectomy, Nora’s developed a peculiar psychic gift triggered by scents, thrusting her into a world of mystery and intrigue.

In Sense and Scent Ability, Nora becomes embroiled in a murder investigation to clear her best friend Gilly’s name. Using her newfound abilities, Nora races against time to catch a killer before Gilly is wrongly convicted.

Then, in For Whom The Smell Tolls Nora tackles another case, investigating the suspicious death of a friend’s cousin. With allergies hindering her senses and her ex-chief of police breathing down her neck, Nora must rely on her intuition and loyal friends to sniff out the truth.

Finally, in War of the Noses, Nora faces off against her former nemesis at a spa convention turned deadly when murder becomes the main event. With the help of her friends and her hot detective beau, Nora dives nose-first into solving the mystery, determined to uncover the truth before another life is lost.

Filled with humor, friendship, romance, and plenty of intrigue, this aromatic trio of mysteries proves there’s no scent (or villain) too elusive for Nora Black to sniff out.

A failed military training exercise. An alien incursion, desperate and on the hunt. Survival is just the beginning…

‘This is a moment in time humanity will never forget. Hostile Contact.’★★★★★ Goodreads

Finn had thought he’d seen it all…but no…he had to admit…

Not quite everything…

There was a big universe out there and it was about to land in his lap.

Just how bad could it be?

Finn is a troubled war-hero, overseen by an unyielding Commanding Officer while dragging his group of rookies through basic training. When an alien incursion lands in the middle of a patrol exercise, wielding powerful weapons and alien armour far beyond their own, he is forced to lead the remnants of Delta Squad in a desperate struggle for survival.

Utilising light-reflecting camouflage, the aliens go on the rampage, killing indiscriminately and capturing Finn’s CO before going on the hunt. Outgunned, and with the world’s armed forces helpless to act after a second incursion drops, Delta set out on a desperate rescue mission, only for the aliens to reveal a weapon that could change modern-day warfare forever.

Finding themselves in a battle for Earth’s future, Delta Squad discover the aliens are more than they seem, and that alien technology can be just as deadly in the hands of humanity when they unearth a deadly secret ‒ the Weapons of Choice.

Read Hostile Contact, an action-packed sci-fi survival novel – where ‘Predator’ meets ‘Full Metal Jacket’ in a pulse-pounding, non-stop thrill ride.

I only wanted to control my magic, but a single potion catapulted my life into chaos…

I’m Nyssa Thornheart, a witch with broken magic. I escaped to the big city to pursue my passion for alchemy, and hide from my coven until I fix my powers.

If my unstable gifts are exposed, they will be stripped away. To live without magic, that’s a fate worse than death. So I drank a long-forgotten potion in a desperate bid to harness my volatile powers.

But when I’m cornered by thugs, I unleash a rare and dangerous magic, tearing the veil between our world and a demonic realm. My new powers are growing stronger and resist every attempt to subdue them.

Now I’m a hunted witch, pursued by both demonic creatures and authorities determined to protect our realm from the threat I pose.

Can I master my magic, or will I have to sacrifice my powers before the city falls to demons?

Binge this fast-paced, fierce, laugh-out-loud funny urban fantasy series in a complete omnibus now!

Getting possessed by a demon wasn’t on my to-do list. I was just too busy for that sort of thing.

I had a fifty-hour work week, a hellraiser of a toddler, debilitating morning sickness and a husband who thought his only job was taking out the trash. I was at breaking point.

I don’t remember being possessed, or attacking Terry, or my local priest pulling the demon out of me and trapping her in a banana (with the help of a stranger, a badass girl who apparently wrangled supernatural creatures for a living.)

But the aftermath was wild. Terry promised he’d try harder, and give me more support.

He lied. And I broke.

So… I ate the banana. I absorbed the vengeance demon.

She’s a part of me now, sharing my body; we’re like two people in a car. Most of the time, I’m driving. Sometimes, I let her take the wheel.

She’s the rage of wronged women; the vengeance of the vulnerable, wild justice for the oppressed. She can hear bad thoughts, she can sense evil intentions. She can tell when someone wants to abuse their power, and she whispers their secrets to me.

She also eats the internal organs of evil people… which is a little awkward, since I’m a vegetarian.

Binge all four books in this bestselling series:

  • Oops I Ate A Vengeance Demon
  • Dancing With A Vengeance Demon
  • Dating with My Vengeance Demon
  • Dying For My Vengeance Demon


Foils and Fury series is a fun, fast-paced urban fantasy and paranormal mystery series, with a diverse cast including witches, shifters, vampires, sassy skeletons and, of course, vengeance demons.
