They’ll have to fly faster than reindeer to rescue Santa…and save Christmas.

Other than the pleasure of etching delicate tendrils of ice on windows, there’s not much Kai Ulfsen enjoys about life under Jack Frost’s rule. But when he’s roped into serving on a strike team to kidnap Santa and destroy Christmas, Kai’s had enough. Frost must be stopped.

Human witches, the only other beings on Earth with magical powers, are his only hope. He never expected his search would lead him a woman with sky-blue eyes and hair like a river of gold.

Stella Monroe is five minutes away from closing up her tea shop for the holiday when a vision of Nordic male perfection fills the doorway. And, even more surreal, this beautiful man with silver hair, aquamarine eyes, and…pointed ears?…needs her help.

Granted, she flies the fastest broom at the Witch Olympics, but is her magic equal to a task like this? But maybe with a little luck — and a bag of pixie dust — Kai and Stella can beat the clock, beat Frost at his own game, and save the happiest holiday of the year.

’Til death do us part… or ’til demons do their worst.

Rosemary McGuire and Will Gordon’s dream wedding is about to become a nightmare. Vista de los Robles may be a stunning historic mansion, but it comes with uninvited guests from Hell. Literally.

When a hideous demon crashes their romantic getaway, the couple must trade champagne toasts for holy water and vows for vanquishing spells. With their big day hanging in the balance, they call in the cavalry: demon-hunting power couple Michael Covenant and Audrey Barrett.

As the winter solstice approaches, the team races to uncover the mansion’s dark secrets before “I do” becomes “I doom.” Rosemary and Will must prove their love is stronger than any demonic force…or risk their happily ever after going up in unholy flames.

He’s a being of immense power and dark secrets…she’s the key to his redemption.

Sarah Wolfe thought her dreams died with the rest of the world when the Djinn unleashed the Heat. Now she’s just another survivor in the protected community of Los Alamos, her voice silenced by grief and guilt. But when a scouting mission goes awry, Sarah finds herself captive in the isolated sanctuary of Ghost Ranch.

Her captor is Abdul, a mysterious being who’s not quite djinn, not quite human. Scarred and solitary, he’s determined to keep his existence a secret. But as Sarah’s golden voice fills the air and her gentle spirit touches his heart, Abdul finds himself drawn to the very humanity he once shunned.

As their connection deepens, Sarah uncovers shocking truths about Abdul’s past. Now she must decide if she can accept the unacceptable and love a being who carries the weight of unimaginable choices.

The survivors of Los Alamos are desperate to find Sarah, and the djinn elders are closing in. As external pressures mount, Sarah and Abdul’s fragile bond faces its ultimate test. Their love must overcome the wounds of the past and bridge the divide between humans and djinn…if they hope to forge a future together in this changed world.

This special-edition boxed set contains three complete first-in-series witchy paranormal cozy mystery novels:

GRAVE MISTAKE

When you pull up stakes, make sure you don’t get stabbed in the back.

Hedgewitch Selena runs to Arizona to escape Lucien, a slimy, celebrity-schmoozing sorcerer. Just as she’s meeting the locals — including hunky Calvin Standingbear — Lucien tracks her down…then disappears. And when one of Lucien’s acolytes is killed, Selena and Calvin race against time before a too-close-for-comfort evil cuts her own life short.

CAFFEINE BEFORE CURSES

When a movie shoot ends in murder, a caffeine fix might be the star’s only hope.

Skye O’Malley’s witch powers are nothing special. But when a film crew comes to town, they’re put to the test when the film’s star — her unrequited crush — is accused of murder. Max Sullivan needs a miracle, but if Skye’s tea leaves are too murky, a killer could get away clean.

SPELLS AND SPANIELS

Something’s got a spaniel familiar’s tongue…and it isn’t a cat.

When an influential witch is found dead and her familiar, a spell-silenced spaniel named Milo, is attacked, Charity Hughes calls on handsome local veterinarian Noah Jenkins — and her familiar-whisperer gift — to race against time to find out why someone wants the spaniel to remain silent as the grave…permanently.

A raven’s cryptic clues might just lead her to wrack and ruin….

Charity Hughes, owner of Full Moon Apothecary, is ready for Salem’s busiest season. But her broken heart isn’t the only thing haunting her. When confronted by a raven familiar who communicates only through mysterious rune stones, Charity must untangle the bird’s bizarre behavior while juggling the demands of tourist season.

The stakes rise when paranormal researcher Eunice Bartlett is found murdered behind Charity’s shop. Charmed by the invitation of Eunice’s rival, Dr. Nathan Grimes, to the Halloween masquerade ball, Charity agrees to be his date. But the enchantment fades when she encounters her ex, veterinarian Noah Jenkins, stirring up unresolved feelings.

As the murder investigation ensnares an innocent man, Charity’s intuition screams that something is amiss. With the raven’s frantic clues and her own Tarot cards as her guide, she races to unravel a web of secrets and lies…before the real killer disappears forever.
