One of them, Stella, will be moving, which forces Val to make a choice. Has she finally found a world that will accept her? Does she want to make it her home? Then Anne, her first client who is now a friend as well, calls her about another protection job, and she can't say no.

When three local bullies pick on Iron Hills dwarf Eiravel (Val) Stonehold, she naturally defends herself. Why is she the only one who gets thrown out of the tavern after the brawl?

A jealous fiancee is one thing, but one with fangs?

Angelica Morgan has already climbed higher than she would have dreamed. But there is no time to appreciate the view. Because one crown isn't enough if you're The Morrigan, and if she's going to keep this green and blue ball from spinning apart, she needed that mantle yesterday. Good thing she's not alone now.

What's a girl to do when she finds out she has a great destiny? Reject it, of course. Until she starts having dreams that are someone else's memories. The world is on its second pandemic in a decade and EMT Angelica Morgan is burned out. Believing tea and cookies are a good solution, Angelica heads to her grandmother's. Can the world get weirder? Yes, yes it can. What Angelica learns sends her careening down an entirely new path. One she isn't even sure she wants, no matter how much she desires to help humanity. Angelica realizes the advantages. But will she live to make use of them?

How many secrets does the Army hold? At least one that concerns me, which I found out after they decided I was unnecessary. That advice about telling the truth? It's highly overrated. They say there is a point where you can't go anywhere but up. I have to think guarding an underwear factory is such a point after running ops in the Sandpit overseas.

Julie Meadows is down on her luck when she receives an e-mail drafting her into the Official Para-Military Agency. She didn't expect "para" to mean paranormal. Her partner is an Aether Elf prince, her boss is a Were . . . something, and the IT department is staffed by literal trolls. The prospect of a steady job and financial security draws her into a world filled with every myth and legend she's ever read about. Julie dives into the magical, mystical, and downright fantastic when she and her partner, Taylor, are tasked with finding new recruits for the Agency.

Captain Kaplan orders Julie to complete her training. Now she has the full story, Julie has a better idea of the consequences if OPMA isn't brought back to its full strength. But three heads are better than one, even if one of their team doesn't technically have a head. Hat has an idea that takes the team deep into Avalon in their search for paras who are willing to stand up and fight for the right to live in peace. While Julie and Taylor are working the recruitment angle, the heads of the seven families are preparing.

Do the Sphynxes know more than they're telling her about the mysterious results of her physical?

Can Julie and Cassidy put their differences aside for Malcolm's sake, or will their feud get in the way of unraveling the case?

Flushed with the signing bonus to end all signing bonuses, Julie has one more recruit in mind. Herself. Despite Lillie's bequeathment giving her options she had never imagined she'd have, Julie knows it's time to move on. The assassination attempts on the heirs keep coming, and completing her military training puts Julie in the position to do more to protect the people she cares about.

Julie and her Griffin unit are sent from one mission to the next as the tension in the para world rises. The emergence of Julie's magic has come just in time to help her fight the para group taking their efforts to remove the Eternity Queen to deadly lengths. The Sylthana Prince has stirred up a hornets' nest by endorsing the Dark Moon League's resurgence, and there are fears of a leak inside the agency. OPMA are the ones responsible for ending their reign of terror before all of Avalon is lost to the flames of insurrection.

Angelica Morgan's head is full of her goddess power's previous incarnations. When they're not demanding she satisfy their cravings, they must help her uncover a plot that designed to disrupt all aspects of Angelica's life. As the past catches up to the present, will Ang ever get an uninterrupted date with Simon? Or will recent events...resurface? The banshees are acting strangely—more strangely than usual, anyway. Caught in a web of duplicity, Ang prepares for all-out war.

Angelica Morgan went all over the world with Meiran, intervening in conflicts and learning how to wield her powers. Now she has all three parts of the Morrigan. Gran, Caroline, and Meiran are gone. Or are they? Can three old and powerful ladies who are alive only in her mind really drive her crazy? Gran wants her favorite Gin, Caroline wants pastries, and Meiran likes Glenfiddich Whisky. Will Ang die of cirrhosis or diabetes first? Oh, wait . . . she's the Morrigan, so they don't affect her. And another thing. Will Ang ever have an uninterrupted date with Simon?

Even goddesses who only have two-thirds of their powers have to walk the talk at some point, right? Ang got a breather, but now she is reunited with Gran, who steers her toward the final person she needs to meet: Meiran Neman, the current keeper of the Way of Conquerors. Can she find her fast enough to meet the next challenge?

Angelica Morgan knows better than to trust that saving Una was the end of the war against the gods. Temporary peace is just that - temporary. Ang's connection to the Morrigan's past lives gives her a clue as to what horrors are stirring. Cernunnos is conspicuously absent and Ruadan is giving nothing away.

A meeting at the Houndsinn Trust building is cut short by a firebombing that turns out to have a magical connection. Was Angelica Morgan's mercy misplaced? Oerla is back, and she's not working alone. The Blinded Eye promise to wreak havoc until the trust—and Angelica—are brought down. Ang learned her lesson about backdealing banshees the hard way. The phouka are just as unwilling to enlighten her as to the whereabouts of the Ice Woman.

Death is coming for everyone Angelica Morgan loves. Cernunnos's plans are coming to a head and the final battle looms large over both worlds. The Tuatha have chosen their sides and allegiances become clear when a mad god throws a spanner in the works of Dagda's plan to overcome the god of death. Ang calls in her allies from the supernatural and mortal world and prepares to face the Wild Hunt. When betrayal comes, it is not from the place the Morrigan expected.

The two sides of Angelica Morgan's life are no longer separate. Finding the Fianna takes precedent and a government ride along was not in the plan. Following Dagda's visit, Ang and the team prepare to leave for the Otherworld, but is the offer of help from Abhartach a double-edged blade? Wolf seems to think so . . .

After an exciting month with three assassination attempts on my client and three frantic weeks trying to get enough questions answered to make a life-altering decision, is a peaceful week in Spain with my best friend too much to ask? Apparently. Ronan’s mom has other ideas. Our security team was taking shape, but we weren’t there yet. The week was supposed to be a shakedown cruise for our new staff members, more or less. Instead, we are pitchforked into a peace summit. What could happen?

Her landlord planned to demolish her house. The vampires figured, why not demolish her inside of it? At least Callie doesn’t have to worry about getting her security deposit back. Why has Vaughn been in such a rush to kill her? Is he afraid she can persuade the Winter and Summer courts to work together? After all, if the courts don’t unite, the vamps will destroy them all. Shouldn’t that be motivation enough? Apparently not. Callie will just have to persuade them to cooperate anyway.
