Rebel Spell

I’m a witch without magic. I left Salem because I didn’t fit in, but now I have to return to deal with my aunt’s estate.

When I meet my quirky, supernatural tenants, they convince me to go to the Halloween ball–and to pretend to be the vampire’s girlfriend. Risky? Perhaps. Witches are being murdered, and trouble is brewing like an overflowing cauldron.

Is returning here a fatal mistake?

Hot in Witch City

A wolf shifter enters my retro rock club and claims I'm his mate.

That’s not going to happen.

I'm half-siren and all single. No way am I giving up my freedom for some delusional furball.

Dancing with My Elf

A dragon shifter thinks I need his help.

Ha. I'm a detective. Why would I need help from an exotic dancer on a case that involves dark magic? We're searching for demons, not dollars.

Fans of New Girl will love the Salem Supernaturals with awkward meet cutes, quirky housemates, and found families.

This boxed set is the first three books in the Salem Supernatural’s series and a boxed set of fun and amazing characters. Humor, secrets, romance and sexy supes, everything a paranormal romance lover could want, and each book follows a different couple, a couple we have already met in one of the previous books.

Rebel Spell – Book 1

Nova Adams is a witch with no magic who moved from Salem where she felt like a failure to New York. Nova had no intention of returning to Salem until she discovered that an aunt, she barely remembered had left her home and money for its upkeep for her. Forced to return to Salem to deal with the house and the three tenants presently living there, she will discover secrets and lies told to her all her life that will send her life in a new direction. Diego a vampire, Sebastian a wolf shifter and Lucas a dragon shifter are Nova’s tenants, but Diego is the one that catches her eye. Diego was engaged to a beautiful vampire who convinced him to turn so that they could spend eternity together, unfortunately, eternity to her was six months.

The one bright spot in Nova’s arrival in Salem is her childhood best friend Gianna, half-human and half-siren and the owner of a club called Danger Zone. Every day Nova finds herself having to deal with something new, should she sell the house, does she want to see where her feelings for Diego will lead her and discovering the secret behind her magic, or lack thereof. Witches are being murdered and she finds herself right in the middle of the investigation with Diego trailing behind in an attempt to protect her.

Hot in Witch City – Book 2

This is Gianna and Sebastian’s story, and their first meeting did not go well. As soon as Sebastian smelled, yes smelled her, he is a wolf shifter, his wolf recognized its mate and almost shifting and making a fool of himself did not endear him to his mate who threw him out of her club. Nova and Diego are still going strong, Lucas is still loving his freedom to be with whoever he wants, and Sebastian is losing his mind.

Sebastian and his wolf have a battle going, Sebastian says no Gianna is not his mate and his wolf says yes, she is. The first time they have sex he is convinced that will get her out of his system he gets an A for effort but a D for failure, she is his mate. Sebastian doesn’t give up and is willing to take whatever he can get, even if it is friends with benefits. Gianna is half siren and can’t envision being monogamous even if it is with someone who satisfies her in bed.

Then her life gets even more confusing because her mother who abandoned her when she was an infant has suddenly come back to catch up. While she tries to make sense of her mother’s sudden return and tries to come to terms with her feelings for Sebastian, danger seems to accompany her mother and her pod.

Another story filled with suspense, romance, betrayal, secrets and lies and a lead in to book three which is no doubt Lucas story.

Dancing with My Elf – Book 3

Lucas’ dragon recognizes his mate, Zoe, a detective for the Salem Supernatural Network, and just like Sebastian’s first meeting with Gianna his doesn’t go much better. Nova and Zoe are at the club Lucas dances at trying to get information on demons that once again are making an appearance only Lucas decides to tease Nova and her friend by dancing in front of them, big mistake. Once again, the nose knows, and Lucas’ dragon immediately recognized its mate, throwing Lucas off balanced landing on top of Zoe, which she was less than happy about.

Gianna’s mom had talked about a portal opening allowing more demons to get through, a scary thought but one that requires investigating. Despite his refusal to acknowledge that Zoe is his mate Lucas agrees to partner with her and try to find the demons that are still killing witches. Another stubborn supe who refuses to want to get tied down until he comes to admit his dragon knows more than him.

These three books are the start of a wonderful series in which we follow our three couples as they go about their lives. I can’t wait to read the other books to discover whether there are marriages in the works and if there are “bites” in the future. Every lover of paranormal romances involving shifters knows all about the “bites”.
