Witching the Day Away
M.L. Briers - 2018
On the hill on one side of the valley stood a church, on the other side, stood a mansion where a vampire lived. In the valley below the witches lived on one side of the town and a pack of wolf shifters on the other. While the unsuspected humans populated the town. All was right with the world, and everybody went about their business, until the day that a witch ran into a wolf shifter, and all hell was about to break loose. Could the town of Knowing survive a wolf wooing a witch? Could the wolf pack survive the mating? For that matter, would the wolf shifter survive to mate? And was there something a little strange going sight unseen in the sleepy little town where the supernatural residents liked to be awake while the humans slept? Comedy romance with a dash of madness and mayhem to make you laugh-out-loud.
Never Let You Fall
Michele G. Miller - 2013
You will not die for me. I can’t live with that, Xander, and I would rather let them take me before I let them kill you.” He opened his mouth to argue, but I held up my hand. “Don’t argue it. There’s no point. I’ve made up my mind.” He shook his head, but didn’t argue. Instead, he promised as he always did, “If anything happens to you… if we get separated, if you martyr yourself… anything, Skye. As long as I am breathing, I will always find you. Always.” Those were precisely the words I’d counted on him saying. AN ORPHAN with no memory of her past and no hope for her future. A GUARDIAN determined to keep her safe. A DESTINY neither of them expected.
