She's beautiful, sassy, brilliant, and brutally honest.

They'll do anything for a second shot at forever. When Cole McGregor entered my life, my whole world changed. My new neighbor was older, gorgeous, and the Irish accent had me swooning. And no matter what, he was always there for me, but only as a friend. The day I walked out of his life without a trace...I'd left not as a young girl with a crush but as a woman in love.

But as the truth unravels, and the McGregor family finds themselves under attack, Adam must not only rescue Anna in time, but keep his family from danger, as well.

Ringo Devereux knows far too much for a man of his times. There's no simple explanation for it that doesn't involve improbable conversations about the future, and Ringo's advanced understanding of three-phase generators and the secret histories of his city are not things he can discuss with the Victorian Londoners around him. Even his origins as an orphaned street thief are far too dangerous for a young gentleman of means to reveal. An encounter with a 10-year-old pickpocket, and a luncheon with Oscar Wilde and Arthur Conan Doyle draw Ringo back into the shadows of his criminal past.

Riot Cofield is a bad-boy mountain lion shifter who scales mountains like fences. He belongs IN the Natahala Forest but not TO it, and he resents “the Cause” because it turns normal, sweet women into conniving, savage witches - switches - who will do anything to kill a vampire.

Over and done with the Cause and everything in it, including Resperanza, the extraordinary, not-there-a-month-ago, magical house and command center.
