They have four lifetimes to break the curse. Three times, they have failed.

But she does remember Cyrgyn, the golden dragon who has haunted her dreams since childhood and has appeared to her now to begin their final attempt. A highly trained spy, Alexa has been preparing for this mission her entire life. But her skills are no match for the desperate mage who has lost none of his command of magic-and none of his twisted, possessive need for her. She is determined to save the dragon she has come to love, but there is more than the curse standing in their way...

Sofia Westlake - 2019

If the supernatural world doesn’t decide to do away with Pastor Joe before he can do something dramatic, like an exorcism on a certain cursed necklace. Part 2: The Serpent’s Shadow Shapeshifter Lacey Bostick is absolutely thrilled when local boy Silas Beardley brings a jade serpent’s head brooch into the antique shop. Although, Lacey is more interested in handsome Silas than his brooch. He swears that his great, great grandmother found the thing in a pharaoh’s tomb in Egypt. As soon as the brooch is sent away for authentication a series of mysterious mishaps start plaguing Silas. It is up to Lacey to find out whether or not the brooch is haunted, or if it really is the most effective good luck charm ever. It might even bring Lacey and Silas to the best moment of their lives.

When she finds a treasure trove of antique dolls just sitting in a box on the curb waiting for trash day, she cannot resist stopping to save the poor things. But when Daphne brings the dolls to Vaguely Vintage, Clara tells her that she’s stumbled onto a box of dolls that carry a horrible curse. Some poking around leads Daphne to the doorstep of local journalist Archie Rawlins. The truth is that Archie is pretty sure his crazy ancestors used the dolls to torment their neighbors. Ever since then, the dolls have been haunted. When strange things start to happen at Daphne’s house, Archi is determined to keep the sweet doll lover from being the next victim. It will take all of Daphne’s wits as a budding witch to put this supernatural story to bed and win the heart of the handsome hero. Part 4: The Story of Vintage Emily Alden is a half fairy. That means she has some unusual talents. When someone donates a box full of dusty old tomes to the local elementary school, Clara Bostick sends Emily to go and have a look. Unfortunately for Emily, science teacher Wade Orson got there first. Wade’s scientific certainty is on full display as he tries to decode the mathematics in the books. Emily doesn’t have the heart to tell him that it’s fairy math. But when strange things start happening at school, Emily realizes that she’s going to have to figure out who at the elementary school is reading those magical books with enough knowledge to put the incantations to use. Fortunately for Emily, Wade isn’t about to let fairy math carry the day. The two are going to need every bit of their considerable intelligence and a good dose of old fashion toughness to solve this mystery. Part 5: All that Glitters Shapeshifter Clara Bostick has almost resigned herself to being a spinster. It will be a chance to spend her life searching out the strangest and most cursed antiquities that the Eastern United States has to offer.

Clara has had a crush on Sawyer all her life, but he’s never been a guy she could trust.

But as the tapestry begins to reveal itself, Clara sees one thing very clearly. Sawyer Hollander is in Twisted Rock for avery specific reason.
