Sea monsters have no place in modern science. Try telling them that.

Corrie loves being a marine biologist, even if research money is a constant struggle. But studying sea anemones isn’t as ground-breaking as the mermaid she saw. She can’t tell anyone—one slip of her overactive tongue, and Corrie’s career would tank faster than a submarine.

When mysterious free diver Zeballos offers her his ship to collect samples, cash-strapped Corrie eagerly sets sail. A bizarre fish jumps over the bow, hinting at answers to Corrie’s tantalizing questions, but she’s not the only hunter. A desperate drug dealer is hellbent on exploiting the rare sea creatures, and he’ll do anything to stop Corrie from stealing his product.

Together, Corrie and Zeballos navigate dangerous waters, dodge ruthless fishermen, and dive into uncharted worlds. The further they go, the deeper the mysteries. If they don’t stop the drug dealer, then neither Corrie nor Zeballos will get the answers they both desperately seek.

In the end, it may not matter who finds the elusive fish…

Because disturbed nightmares hunt from the depths below.

Read the first three books of this adventurous urban fantasy series with a salty flavor and a twist on your favorite myths of mermaids, sirens, the Kraken, and many more.

Psst! Can I tell you a secret? Midlife is a c-r-a-z-y ride. Not what I expected at all. But, I’m having a ton of fun in between the…you know…near death experiences and bladder-testing moments of complete terror.

Curse, curse, swear! How did midlife get so out of control? All I wanted was to make my own mark on the world. Start my own business and celebrate the end of an uninspiring marriage. Instead, I have a bat in my belfry. Not a metaphor…a REAL bat. The woods in my back yard is full of something dark from my nightmares. I’ve got a mysterious and sexy neighbor who seems to appear out of nowhere and knows more about my life than he should. And my best friends? Yeah, they’re witches.

What the..?

My life has become a carnival and I’m sitting at the OhMyGoddessNo! spot on the most heart-stopping roller coaster.
Things are getting hairier than my chin. And midlife is definitely not shaping up to be the calm and graceful phase I’d been expecting.

But, I’ve got a good grip on my granny panties and I’m taking the ride. What could possibly go wrong?

Cast out by dragonkind, threatened by his own family… A dragon with nothing left to lose can be a dangerous thing.

Unless, of course, that dragon is Galen Stormwing. He’s never been very dangerous. He was a failure at school, a failure at gaining powers, and a failure at keeping them.

Now his own parents have told him he needs to do something to impress them within three days, or they’ll have him executed as an embarrassment to the clan. He does the only sensible thing he can think of.

He runs for it. Survival trumps pride, as far as Galen is concerned. Most dragons won’t go to Canada, realm of the dwarf people, so that’s where he must go.

But he’s not the only one fighting for survival. Vala is a young dwarf in school to become an engineer when she begins exhibiting magical powers. There’s never been a dwarf mage before, and not all her people are thrilled about it. In fact, some of them would rather see Vala dead than allow their race to become polluted in that manner.

Both of them are vulnerable, lost, alone — and hunted. But together, they might just have what they need to save each other!

Included in this complete series omnibus:

  1. Clawing For Survival
  2. Clawing for Escape
  3. Clawing for Honor
  4. Clawing For Vengeance
  5. Clawing for Battle
  6. Clawing for Victory

Funny – Charming – Non-Stop Supernatural Trouble…

Charlie, Michael, and Melinda are the last three witches alive in their bloodline.
A werewolf with an over-the-top big brother complex.
An empath who wishes he could stay out of his sibling’s love lives.
And a witch whose job it is to save people she dreams will die, but has a panic attack whenever she has to leave the house…

However, when she has a prophetic dream of Michael’s should-be girlfriend dying, Melinda needs to act fast. But saving their friend means doing one of three things Melinda dreads:
Ask her brothers for help.
Ask the vampire she’s crushing on hard, and who’s off limits, for help.
Or worse, do it herself—but this means doing the hardest thing ever—leaving her house and stepping into the hectic, crowded, no-room-to-breathe tourist trap that is The Demon Isle…
