Pages:432

Rating:⭐⭐⭐⭐(4/5)

Synopsis: Life as a bodyguard and driver for the rich, famous, and powerful is dangerous on a good day, and after sustaining a crippling injury while on duty, Janette’s left with few options. Having signed a ‘for life’ contract but unable to work, she uses her skills to disappear. Her new life as a librarian suits her. Nobody cares she limps and sometimes requires a cane to walk. She’s wanted for her knowledge, not her lethal magic. She’s surrounded by books, a woman’s best friend. But when her former employer’s best friend is murdered on the steps of her library, old loyalties and secrets might destroy her - or set her free. Teaming up with her co-workers to find the killer might keep her from being booked for murder, but unless she’s careful, she’ll find out exactly how far her ex-boss will go to reclaim what is rightfully his. Her. For life.

Rating:⭐⭐⭐⭐(4/5)

Synopsis: My name is Lorn, and I’m a witch. Or at least, I thought I was. Turns out, things aren’t always what they seem. My magic has always been different from others of my kind—untamed. Something to hide, even in my own world, along with my monster-filled dreams and odd ‘episodes.’ When my entire life is turned upside down with a single drop of blood, the mysterious magick I’ve been trying to hide finally catches up to me. Deserted and stranded on my own, four strangers offer me asylum and a place to call home. At least, for now. With the help of Dason, Chayton, Axel, and Kota, I’m discovering the truth about myself as my past and my future collide. The world I grew up in was a lie, and now I’m learning how to use my magick, who my enemies are, and that the beasts stalking my sleep are actually real. And they’re my problem. Surrounded by deadly threats, the guys and I navigate a world full of supernatural creatures, each with their own agendas, to gather the intel we need to defeat the darkness. Hopefully for good. There’s danger in the shadows, but I’ll be dead before I let it win. And I’m just getting started.
