An action-packed adventure story with an exciting film location setting. Finn is a free-running black belt, with a talent for acting-but when his big break arrives, it's not the role he was expecting at all.

He's determined to push himself, but as the stunts get more dangerous, the lines between movie and reality are really starting to blur, and it becomes clear that he'll be luckily to escape this shoot with his life.

Wizard for hire Harry Dresden has to track down the things that go bump in the night in this novel in Jim Butcher's #1 New York Times bestselling series. There’s no love lost between Harry Dresden, the only wizard in the Chicago phone book, and the White Council of Wizards, who find him brash and undisciplined.

As Harry adjusts to his new role, another problem arrives in the form of the tattooed and pierced daughter of an old friend—all grown up and already in trouble. Her boyfriend is the only suspect in what looks like a supernatural assault straight out of a horror film. Malevolent entities that feed on fear are loose in Chicago, but it’s all in a day’s work for a wizard, his faithful dog, and a talking skull named Bob...

Book Description
When Aidoneus, god of the underworld, lost Persephone, he lost everything. He fled to the mortal world, where he's buried himself in his work. Nothing else could distract him from the pain...until his company hires a new accountant. Kora is brilliant with numbers and undeniably attractive. But there's more to her than that. She makes Aidoneus feel again, makes his powers act up in ways they haven't in years. And his family is suspicious: could Kora be a Titan, the age-old enemy of the Greek gods? The very same people responsible for Persephone's death? Aidoneus and his family aren't the only ones interested in Kora: the Watchers, ancient guardians of Olympus, have been waiting. And now, they're preparing for war. Kora must choose between the friends she trusts and the man she loves. And Aidoneus must choose between the only family he's ever known and the woman who feels like home. The right choice could bring peace to their world–if they have the strength to make it. The Scarlet Romance is a full-length paranormal romance featuring Olympians, Greek gods, unbelievable fight scenes, and a fated romance that will leave you spellbound.
