Book Description
A deserted mansion. Empty picture frames. A perfect red rose in a snowy garden. There is rich and powerful magic here, and a mystery to unravel . . . When Natasha is forced to take shelter from a sudden, terrible blizzard, she is lucky to see a mansion looming out of the snow. Inside it’s beautiful: the fire lit, the table set. But there is no one there. And on the walls, instead of paintings, are empty frames. In the garden, she finds one perfect red rose about to bloom, a vivid splash of scarlet against the snow. Dreamily she reaches out a hand . . . Only to have the master of the house appear – a terrifying, gigantic creature who looks like a cross between a bear and a man – and demand vengeance on her for taking his rose. So begins an extraordinary adventure that will see Natasha plunged deep into the heart of a mystery. She begins to realise she has stumbled onto a great tragedy – a spell of revenge laid on the young man the Beast once was, devised by a powerful sorcerer. But even if she can break the spell, the Beast she has now come to love will be snatched from her. Natasha will have a long journey, and many ordeals, ahead of her before there can be a happy ending. Inspired by two beautiful Russian fairytales – The Scarlet Flower (the Russian version of Beauty and the Beast) and Fenist the Falcon, Scarlet in the Snow is a beguiling mix of magic, romance, adventure and mystery.

Book Description
I found myself caught somewhere between nightmares--bitter flashes of fur and fang, hot breath, full snarls--and hopes and dreams as soft as gossamer, fleeting as sparrow in the snow, impossible to pin. Through it all was the memory of Finn's mouth on mine, the brush of his lips, the shaking of his body as it pressed against me. He was all nerves and quiet, tender desperation. An outcast with a proclivity for poisons, Andesine De Winter longs for a life outside her closed-minded village. But she's drawn to the surrounding forests of Thornwood, and the mysterious white wolf that saved her life as a child. When the wolf reveals himself as the shape-changing Finn, an omega hiding from his former pack, Andesine finds herself in the middle of a conflict that threatens everything she holds dear--her dreams, her family, and the boy she's given her heart to. There is more than one way to lose yourself, and more than one kind of wolf in the woods...

A fantastic cast of characters, histories unearthed, revelations, confrontations, a whole lot of banter and a steaming pile of C.H.E.M.I.S.T.R.Y." "I don't think I can put into words how much I loved this book." "If you love a well built relationship, fun characters, beautiful atmosphere and world building that completely immerses you, add this one to you collection now!"

Grace Carter, a "source" of magic, has spent the last nine months searching for Maggie Mulvaney, her "catalyst." The joy of reuniting with her partner—and her lover—is thwarted by her worst fear: Maggie remembers neither Grace nor their life together in the Order of Saint Teresa, the centuries-old organization that trained them to be the strongest demon-hunting duo in generations. When Maggie and Grace unexpectedly come face-to-face with the demon Horde, they are forced to team up once again. As they begin to piece their lives back together, they discover that their memories have been masked by someone within the Order. Should the Horde succeed in their plan, those who have committed their lives to slay worldly demons will be relegated to little more than minions as humans are completely enslaved. Now, Grace and Maggie must sacrifice everything, possibly even their love, and their lives, in an all-out battle to save humanity.
