One tent
She’s still learning her powers
There is but one lesson humans are slow to learn and quick to forget: the fae lie . . .
When half-fae Bronwyn is caught fleeing the scene of a robbery, a Crusader arrow finds its mark. But as her roguish partner-in-crime Eoin tends to her wounds, a spark between them replenishes Bronwyn’s magic—revealing her as part-Siren. And quite possibly cursed.
Meanwhile, word is spreading of the two thieves and the illegal magic they left behind them. To escape discovery, Bronwyn and Eoin accept a dangerous yet tempting job: a wedding heist that leads them into the depths of the fae realm.
But August, the merciless vampire lord of the Selene Court, is used to getting what—and who—he wants.
In a land of deception, seduction, and meddling gods, Bronwyn puts her life on the line, only to discover temptation may be her undoing. And time is running out for her to make a choice, before she’s stuck on the wrong side of a looming war.
The Curse of the Siren is a steamy, plot-driven romantasy with magic, political intrigue, and two tempting MMCs.

– Found Family
– Portal Urban Fantasy Romance
Half-fae, half-human—entirely unprepared to face the war my bloodline dragged me into.
The moment I touch the broken rescue stallion, scars thicken like armor across his back and wings begin to regrow. I’ve barely processed this when a gruff man with glowing eyes and a pulsing energy shows up on my ranch, claiming I’m half fae…and the key to saving three realms.
I refuse to let anyone else decide who I become, but that doesn’t stop my fae “guardian” from black mailing me to follow him to his realm, where small folk are vanishing, only to return stripped of their magic and dying slow, tortured deaths. And while my healing magic is stirring here, it’s barely enough to help with the demons hunting us, let alone save anyone.
As for my guardian? Seems like even being near me is painful, and I can’t tell if it’s from resisting the connection between us, or something darker. Especially when it feels like his blood commands mine… and my own might destroy him.
But distraction could cost us everything; if I fail the prophecy, demons will enslave the fae, destroy the human realm, and take the creature I care about most: my Leath Pegasus.
They say I’m the key to saving the realms, but as time runs out, I can’t help but wonder if anyone can stop what’s coming.
Fans of Anne Bishop’s Pillars of the World and Faith Hunters’ Jane Yellowrock Series will love this fast-pace, hidden magics, and forbidden love between a grumpy fae guardian and a sunshiny but reluctant chosen one.

No spice
In the shadows, the truth awaits, ready to shatter reality.
As a member of the prestigious vampire coven, the Assembly of Shadows, Bria Allen has trained her entire life to become an elite assassin, following in the footsteps of her revered parents. But when her best friend Luna and an entire sect mysteriously disappear, Bria’s loyalty is tested like never before.
Amidst the doctrines and surveillance of the coven, Bria must navigate a treacherous path filled with ancient rituals, frenzied vampires, and hidden conspiracies.
Will she keep the secrets to herself and follow safely in her family’s footsteps or dare to unveil the truth and stand alone against the Assembly?
In the spirit of Practical Magic and First Frost, a modern-day magic folk tale weaves a fantasy of love, secrets, spellbooks, and family bonds into evocative prose ….
It’s common knowledge in Duran Hill that some women in the Kinley family have certain gifts … and certain curses … running through their bloodlines. But for three sisters in all but name — Rachel, Juliette, and their cousin Sylvia — the ties that bind them close as ivy throughout their childhood are pulled apart in adolescence when both the gift and curse of that power is revealed between them.
Since that fateful incident, sensible Juliette has tailored a perfect and perfectly ordinary life which unravels after she marries — and loses — the love of her life. Sylvia, drawn to the dark side, sets up a shop that caters to all the mystical powers the latter generations of the Kinley family shunned. And Rachel, the wild child, in whom its magic seems to create a charmed life, is a carefree wanderer who finds herself suddenly drawn home again. Her arrival will stir old rivalries and test forgotten bonds in the brief span of a few weeks.
But when an old friend in desperate trouble seeks her out, she will impulsively unleash the dangerous secret behind their power: one which has lain forgotten in the Kinley house for two generations. From the Siren’s song of a dead man’s violin to a jar full of harmless-looking buttons, nothing under the shadow of the family’s roof is what it seems — nothing in their bloodline is safe from the dangerous past.
For Juliette, it brings a test of whether love that has withered can bloom again. For Sylvia, a question of whether a dangerous mistake can only be endured until it destroys you. And for Rachel, the choice is the price between the future of the souls she loves most in life and a powerful force that both makes her the enigma she is — and makes to destroy her like embers caught in a firewind.
Against the backdrop of Southern charm, Scottish superstitions, and bewitching romance, ABRACADABRA casts a spell which cannot be undone, from the ache of lost love to the familial links between souls which go as deep as blood and bone.
Evanne Hardin Gray has spent most of her adulthood (and part of her childhood) writing novels, short stories, and screenplays. She has family roots in both New England and the South, which is where she currently writes (sometimes as a ‘ghost’), gardens, and collects books and ideas for them.

My thoughts: As a child I was terrified of Baba Yaga travelling in her pestle and mortar with her house on chicken legs surrounded by a fence of bones. As a teenager I loved Practical Magic (still do) so this book really felt like it was written for me.
Juliette, Rachel, and their cousin Sylvia were close as children but had grown apart as teenagers and adults. When Rachel returns to their hometown, where Juliette now lives in the family’s old house and Sylvia runs a magic shop selling charms and tarot readings, trouble follows.
An old friend, Angela, asks for help, and Rachel and Sylvia oblige, but their help backfires and draws the spirit of an angry, half-forgotten ancestor back into the world. Their great-great-grandmother Ana is not a kindly ghost, she’s a vengeful, rage-filled monster. The three women must find a way to contain and stop her before she wrecks too much havoc and destroys the three of them.
Dark, filled with tragedy but also tinged with the hope of a brighter future, this is a story of sisterhood, the ties of the past, inherited chaos and redemption. I loved it.

She was his chance for redemption.
He was her key to freedom.
Prince Ramiel Faundor is a bastard. His entire existence is the second best-kept secret in a kingdom built on blurred lines. But when his dragon-slaying brother dies in battle, Ramiel must stand in his place in the kingdom’s coronation duel. There’s just one problem: thanks to the king’s intimidation, no noble or soldier dares to train him.
Ether Malaphon is a cutthroat elven warrior. Her hatred for humanity is etched into her soul, second only to her resentment for the fairies who killed her parents. Her world unravels when she’s dragged from her village to be sacrificed to a long-dead monarch. But fate intervenes when a certain desperate prince strikes a bargain that might save her life. If he rescues her, she must agree to train him for his duel.
As time runs out and enemies close in, Ramiel and Ether must navigate dark curses, buried secrets, and a history determined to repeat itself. But in a kingdom shaped by betrayal, victory may come at the ultimate cost.
