     It's a good thing the big bad shifters of Wolfsbane Investigations are ready to step in and make sure things don't go too far off the deep end. Book 1 I’ve spent every vacation that I can remember in a tiny town in Colorado called Pine Valley. Great shopping, top notch skiing, and the best social scene a girl could ask for. I pretty much wrote the book on how to be a “snow bunny”. But this year someone got bold enough to steal my jewels right out of my safe! Fortunately for me, hot investigator Dawson Ames is here to save the day. Sort of. Okay so Dawson is just about as hot as he is cold. But I can win him over. I just hope I can do it before things get any weirder. I’m beginning to think that there’s a whole lot more to my fave vacation spot than skiing. Book 2 If I have to smile at one more spoiled snow bunny and try to sell her jewelry she doesn’t need, I’m going to scream. My name is Callie Pearson and I’m just trying to make a living in a town populated by rich people enjoying their winter vacations. Then a simple shoplifting call gets turned into a huge scandal and my boss hires Owen Ames to investigate the loss. All I know is that he’s tall, dark, and scary. Not only that but I’m the number one suspect! It’s going to take all my brains and twice my charm to figure this one out. Fortunately for me Owen has enough charm for both of us. It’s a good thing too. This is more like a scene from Hollywood than a tiny ski town and I’m not at all ready for primetime. Book 3 I’ve come to the Pine Valley ski resort with one thing in mind—to make a deal that will secure my career for years to come. When Jade King sets her mind on a deal, it gets done. That’s my reputation and I’m not about to screw that up. Unfortunately for me, my impromptu stalker doesn’t necessarily agree. A quick call to Wolfsbane Investigations brings a guy named Aaron Ames to my door and suddenly there are weird things happening all over the place. I can’t tell if this guy is going to keep me safe or walk the line between safe and something else entirely. But maybe that’s what I need since the past and the present are on a collision course and I’m stuck right in the middle. Book 4 I’m a psychic and save your comments because I’ve already heard them all. My name is Celia Rivers and I’m not sure what’s going on in Pine Valley, but the energy has become so overwhelming that I’m almost afraid to try and do a simple palm reading. Something big is going down in this town and the local witch coven is trying to cover up whatever it is. At this point I’ve got no choice but to team up with whatever supernatural entity is willing to take this bull—or possibly demonic entity—by the horns. Of course that means I’ve got Vaughn Ames on my tail. He’s big. He’s intimidating. He’s also super yummy. Book 5 Most people come to Pine Valley for the skiing. I’m here to search for answers. Answers about my family. Answers about my past. And apparently answers about why the hell I’ve spent my life wearing a stone around my neck that doesn’t even belong to me! But when I begin to discover who I am and what I’m destined for, I meet a man named Zane Ames. He’s looking for my moonstone. He claims that it belongs to him. But I’m not letting go without a fight. So if he wants to bring it, I’ll consider myself challenged.
