Book Description
Scath has been arrested by the Unseelie Court. Multiple homicides, along with a crime the fey consider even worse than murder. Magic theft. Conviction will mean execution unless Scath can return the power she took. And for that, she’ll need Shade’s help. Fortunately, Shade has allies in high—and low—places. A demon lawyer hired by the Queen of Air and Darkness herself. A determined pixie. An alpha werewolf. And an old friend who’s learned a lot about the truth of good vs evil… The only thing standing in Shade’s way? A century old murder. To save Scath’s life, Shade will need to find the killer before closing arguments. And the dark court believes in a speedy trial.

Book Description
Shade’s latest case hits close to home when a witch shows up on her doorstep claiming her magic has been stolen. A fly-by-night coven is using an online message board to recruit inexperienced witches—only to vanish weeks later, leaving a trail of magicless women in their wake. And it only gets weirder from there. An offer of help from a familiar, but unwelcome source. Growing discord from Scath threatening to play right into their enemies’ hands. And the mutilated body of a solitary witch. Now it’s personal. There’s something theatrical about these magic thefts, something beyond a simple lust for power. Someone is pulling the strings—and there’s no shortage of puppeteers among Shade’s suspects. But a witch can only be pushed so far. And Shade has had enough.

Family can be tricky. In the Otherworld, tricky can get you killed. Shade’s latest case from her Unseelie master drags her into the home of a ruthless Seelie lord. A set of enchanted goblets has been stolen, and he wants her to find the thief. To make matters interesting, Flint has a relationship with the Seelie lord in question— He's his stepbrother. Cael is proof that not all horrors come from the darkness. As the most infamous interrogator for the Court of Light and Illusion, he’s built a reputation for torture that goes beyond the physical. And he’s looking for a reason—any reason—to subject his stepbrother to his tender mercy. The stakes are raised when a member of the household is murdered, and Shade's group joins the suspect list. Surrounded by secrets and treachery, Shade is forced to question the loyalties and motives of everyone around her. Unfortunately, Cael’s patience is running out. Now he’s given Shade an ultimatum: Catch the thief. Catch the killer. Or pay for both with her own blood.

Book Description
Thieves. Curses. Trouble. Shade’s Unseelie master has a new case for her. Someone is stealing Unseelie artifacts, piecing together the tools to perform a lost ritual. Shade must recover the artifacts and return them to their rightful owners— But only after the thief has finished the spell. Shade’s contract is clear, but her conscience isn’t. The ritual is dangerous, and if she lets the thief succeed, their blood will be on her hands. To make matters worse, this case is full of familiar faces. Faces that still haunt her nightmares. Every revelation raises the stakes, and soon Shade finds her professional life becoming a lot more personal, and the path ahead less and less clear. When Shade finds the thief, she’ll have a choice to make. And there’s no guarantee that the friends she begins with will still be by her side when it’s all over… The Blood Trails series is a fusion of contemporary fantasy and cozy mystery that combines a classic private investigator/whodunnit with the sarcasm, magic, and pulse-pounding battles that have made the urban fantasy genre so famous. Join a witch detective and her quirky pixie familiar as they take on vampires, werewolves, wizards, sorceresses, and a whole lot more. After all, nothing relieves stress like a little magic, mayhem…and murder. All of my books are written in the same universe (yes, the Blood Trails series is contemporary, not historical like the Blood Prince/Blood Realm series—so you’ll have to read Deadline to find out how I managed that…). Be ready for crossovers and cameos!
