Ollie Wit Box Set: Books 1-3


Donna Augustine - 2019
    They're wrong. Get all three books in this urban fantasy romance. A Step Into the Dark (Ollie Wit Book One) Ollie Wit is the strongest Shadow Walker born in decades but it’s a gift with a steep price. Walking in the Shadowlands can bring untold powers and spells, and even greater risks. Every step into that other world brings her closer to the monsters that have haunted her since a child, destroyed her family and wreaked havoc all around her. Kane knows Ollie is the key to getting the spell he needs and he’s the answer to ending her torment. But it’s a bargain that brings her closer to her own destruction. Even if she succeeds, will she be able to walk away from the newfound power that comes with walking in the Shadowlands? Walking in the Dark (Ollie Wit Book Two) Some people find power in the light. Others are meant to walk in the dark. Ollie Wit left it all behind: a new home, friends who saw her as something more than a fragile shadow walker and a budding relationship with Kane. She did it all in an effort to shield Asher, who should’ve never been able to escape the Shadowlands. Now her money is gone, her hopes of saving other shadow walkers has slipped through her fingers, and Kane won’t speak to her. She’s been abducted by leprechauns, who think she has committed an unspeakable crime. The vampires want her dead and there’s a crawler blowing up End of the Rainbows. Kane might not want to work with her, but he’s going to have to because all hell is breaking loose in Boston. Kissed by the Dark (Ollie Wit Book Three) Life with Kane is wonderful, right up until it’s not. People like me, Shadow Walkers, who know that monsters are real and nightmares don’t only happen when you’re sleeping, are always waiting for the worst. But no one believes me when I tell them disaster is looming, not even Kane, the man who has seen more than I can imagine. When the worst does happen, I’m not prepared. Months of my life are wiped from my memory, strangers call me friend, and it looks like I’m conspiring with the enemy. I need a back-up plan. Only problem is, if I have one I don’t remember it. I don’t remember anything, like who to trust and who to hate. Someone screwed with my life and they’re going to pay. But do I trust Kane to help me when all I can remember is that I hate him?

She'd become a recluse for a reason, and the man who almost killed her is out of prison and looking for revenge. It's time for Agatha to put the past behind her once and for all, and she knows there's no one better than to help her succeed than Hank. But at what cost? Book 6 - Malice In Wonderland What could go wrong when Agatha Harley and her best friend Heather Cartwright decide to attend a billion-dollar bash in the ritziest part of Dallas, Texas? A Dallas oil tycoon who makes JR Ewing look like a boy scout, seems to still burn a flame for his fifth ex-wife. Unfortunately, his Independence Day mega-celebration ends with fireworks and his murder. Heather goes from belle of the ball to cell block inmate before the last sparkler burns.It's up to Agatha and Hank to prove Heather's innocence. Well, if you know anything about Heather, you know she's anything but innocent. But, did she kill the cowboy billionaire? Book 7 - Tequila Mockingbird What is Agatha Harley to do when a decades old secret about an unsolved murder is revealed to her? When the source is her dear, elderly neighbor who suffers with memory lapses, Agatha finds herself back at odds with her closest friends.Hank Davidson and Sheriff Reggie Coil are skeptical because the case had previously been investigated. Agatha's faith in her friend pushes her towards the truth. Even if she has to go it alone this time. Hank, a champion of justice joins her, and together they reopen old wounds that appease some while hurting others. But, is there reason or even need to dig into a cold case that might not have even been a case to start with. Book 8 - Gone With The Sin Let sleeping dogs lie. If only that were the case throughout Bell County, Texas, things would've returned to the serenity that once defined it. A quiet, and peaceful place was what Hank Davidson wanted as his retirement home. After a high-risk, violent career as an FBI-trained serial killer detective, crime was the last thing Hank wanted. He also had no intention to fall in love, but crime also played a part in that, or at least solving crime did. Bell County's numerous historic cemeteries were once revered for honoring the heroic sacrifices of its citizens and soldiers. The recent rash of grave robbing has led Agatha Harley to suspect something more sinister is afoot. She must convince a very skeptical Sheriff Reggie Coil that it's more than high school vandals. Enlisting the help of her partner in crime-solving and love, Hank Davidson, would give her the leverage to dig deeper into the series of casket breeches, and help convince Coil that his precious Bell County was once again under attack by the same criminals that brought she and Hank together. Is it a sinister plot or vandals? Agatha and Hank are back on the case.
