Summary: Welcome to the Shifting Lands. Silluka was born with only one arm and could never practice the exacting motions to summon the favor of the gods. Caught stealing, she is forced to test her powers or be branded an outcast. She fails, and loses citizenship to her village. In a fit of desperation, Silluka tries to steal a badge of citizenship from a mysterious elder. But instead, Elder Quilqi shows Silluka a different path to gain the powers of the gods, aided by an octopus-like technological wizard who worships their own eldritch divinities. Time is short for training however, because a new island is speeding toward the coastal town, throwing deadly hurricanes and tidal waves before it, and threatening all who live there. Only the gods and godlike storm warriors protect the village from destruction, but all of them fail when a mysterious creature bursts through the wall. It's only one forerunner for a species of terrifying turtlemen: fast, deadly, and ready to invade the larger island. The village must flee inland before the invasion, while Silluka is weighed down by her outcast status and her brother’s failing abilities. To save herself, her family, and her village, Silluka must overcome stigma and self-doubt. She must learn the scope of the world outside her village. She must learn Physical Magic.

Summary: Can’t find love? Love will find you and poof into your life. Greetings, Nozzag here, an Agent of P.O.O.F. and one of the dedicated caretakers for the Creator of Important Nexuses. It has been over a century since we last shared some of the success stories we helped initiate. For the first time since the Uprising, we are thrilled to present a new collection of Twilight Temptations tales. Launching this series is a story I hold dear and one that almost didn't come to fruition. Without further delay, I present to you Pako and David. Pako – Orc, Fashion Model, Boy, and tired of being walked on—literally. David – Elf, Human Social Worker, Daddy, and too overworked to be looking for love. Pako represents what David needs to remember about slowing down, while David embodies what Pako must remember about self-love. However, without a gentle push from fate via the Creator of Important Nexuses, their paths may never cross. P.O.O.F. Happens is the first in a new series set in the world of Bloodlines of Fate. These are instalove, high heat, low angst stories that will feature different kinds of creatures and a guaranteed HEA.

Summary: The South is being invaded…by vampires. That’s nothing new, but Vlad Chemare isn’t some angst-filled paranormal hero longing for his soulmate, nor does he sparkle like stardust in the night. He’s up-to-date, travels by jet, and is seeking revenge. Armed with an unlimited credit card and a Kevlar vest, Vlad’s out for blood—specifically, Baslo Rigla’s—for burying him alive as punishment for leading a revolt back in the 15th century. With the vampires of Georgia and their American defiance of tyranny rallied around him, he not only has his army but the local werewolf population volunteers as his K-9 Corps. As the fight begins, with the city of Savannah the battleground and the entire world the prize, Vlad is faced with something he didn’t expect…his feelings for mortal Meredith Swanson. Will his love for Meredith get in the way? After all, a woman’s just a woman, but revenge is a dish best served cold, and six hundred years can make for some pretty chilly morsels.

His current ordeal? Meeting his future in-laws. In the midst of betrothed Meredith’s wedding plans, an assassination attempt puts a crimp in the proceedings, sending Vlad, vampiric Southern aristocrat Sebastian Blackthorne, and Dusty the werewolf tracking down the mysterious killer before he succeeds in his mission. To further complicate matters, Roman Florescu once again appears in Meredith’s life with some startling news for Vlad. Vlad manages to take it all in stride, but learning that Baslo Rigla may still be alive, after seeing his enemy’s ashes swept out to sea, may be a little more than he can handle. If a destroyed vampire is able to return from oblivion, there may be only one thing the new king can do…and that will require a sacrifice he doesn’t really want to make.

Nouvel Espoir plantation is called the “Most Haunted House in New Orleans. Visitors claim to have seen things but when asked for details, they become very close-mouthed. Now, the Louisiana Historical Society wants David to certify the house, abruptly abandoned in the late 19th century, is really haunted. David and his cameraman, Red Murtrey, will spend two weeks at Nouvel Espoir, observing and recording any supernatural phenomena. It sounds like a run-of-the-mill assignment, almost a vacation, but as soon as the doors are shut and locked, and they’re alone in the old house, everything changes. Skeptic David can’t explain the sights he sees or what he hears. Nor can he rationalize the visions he has of a handsome young man bearing an uncanny resemblance to himself, a young man who calls out to him for help…and it’s best not to be in the gallery with its full-length portraits after dark. Nouvel Espoir is giving up its secrets, hidden since the Marquis Vaurien’s descendants abandoned their home, and Dave and Red are the unwilling recipients of those well-kept skeletons in the Vaurien closet, whether they want to be or not.

So now Sloane has a very real infestation to contend with, along with suspicious rangers and wannabe hunters edging in on their turf. “…I’m gonna need a bigger boot.”
