A man is innocent until proven guilty. Why isn't that true for witches and their familiars too?Arc kept his end of our bargain and helped me with my family's problem. Now it was time to return the favor.He's been on the run ever since waking up next to his dead on again/off again girlfriend. He swears he didn't kill her. I believe him.He also says she wasn't in his bed when he went to sleep. That's a harder pill to swallow. Arc is a very powerful witch in his own right. And from what I've seen, when he sets a ward, it sticks.So how did the killer not only get through his wards, but plant poor Sonya's body right next to him without him knowing it?If that's the way it really went down, then some top-level witches must be involved. Possibly even council witches. The very thought scares the crap out of me. Council witches are scary. I should know. My aunt Opal is one of themAnd, yes, she scares me too. On pretty much a daily basis.Unfortunately, that isn't where the bad news ended. Arc and I had another shock in store for us when we reached out to his family for help.This one would change our lives forever.Relatively Familiar is Book Two in the Accidental Familiar Series. It is highly recommended to read this series in order as there are major spoilers in the later books.This is a full-length, Paranormal Cozy Mystery featuring the Gemstone Coven witches... and their familiars.

Sometimes the past repeats itself. And sometimes, it packs a bigger punch the second time around.I didn't think much of it when Trevor called Orville in to help with a murder investigation. After all, Trevor hadn't been in the position of acting sheriff all that long. Murder was something new to him. At least, it was new to him in the position of sheriff. It was a far different thing than just being a deputy on a case.The fun (and yes, I use that word very sarcastically) started when we learned just who it was Trevor had in his jail for the crime. None other than my ex.Yup. Ruby's dad. You know? The one she doesn't know a thing about? Yeah, that one.To make matters worse, the man was asking for our help to clear his name. For the record, that had to take some major kind of desperation. We hadn't exactly ended our relationship on friendly terms.I'd had much grander hopes for our first case together as a private-investigating couple. But what could we do? The only way to get rid of the man was to clear his name and then send him packing back to whatever hole he'd come out of.Unfortunately, that single murder was only the beginning. And it looked like the killer just might have Orville in his sights next.Like I'm gonna let that happen.Witch of an Ex is book four in the Paranormal Women's Cozy Mystery series, Witch Reborn. If you're looking for a fun mystery with a strong woman (and strong witch) lead character, you're gonna love this series!

When the Goddess requests help from a family of witches, it's only natural to assume that things are about to get crazy.Still, the wolf at our front door was a bit unexpected.And no, I'm not talking metaphorically here. I mean an actual wolf. Pointed ears, large snout, fur, and fangs... the whole shebang.Unfortunately, that was only the beginning.A Familiar Tail is book 5 in the Accidental Familiar Series. For maximum enjoyment, I highly recommend reading the books in order. (Each book contains major spoilers for the earlier books in the series.)This is a clean Witch Cozy Mystery. If you like stories with strong family values coupled with crazy witchy adventures, you'll love the Accidental Familiar Series.

Wind's Crossing has a new witch of a sheriff!I'll admit when I caught a murder on my very first night of wearing that probationary sheriff's badge, I found myself rethinking my wisdom in taking that position.It wasn't that I didn't think I could do the job. I was very good at enforcing the law. Very, very good. In fact, I was rather uniquely suited to the task, I thought. I had no blinders keeping the paranormal truth of things from my vision.Why? Because I was the paranormal. Twice over, as a matter of fact.But that first case had the potential to turn my calm little world on its head. That's because the victim was Vinnie George--a known wolf hunter. Couple that with the bite marks on the body, and it looked more than likely that we were searching for a killer wolf. Or rather, a killer werewolf.That meant the Luparri werewolf hunters would be on the prowl. Which shouldn't be all that much of an issue, as I happened to know the local Luparri agent. Actually, I was kind of dating the man.My main problem? He didn't know I was a werewolf.Well, half werewolf, anyway.Spell and Protect is the first book in a whole new spin-off series from the world of the Gemstone Coven. Grab the cat and settle in. This is going to be fun!

Who knew buying a house could turn so deadly? When the Gold sisters told me they were buying an estate close to the farmhouse, I was happy for them. At least, I was until I got a gander at the place in question. The old Henderson mansion. To say the place needed a little tender loving care would be wrong. It needed a wrecking ball and a bulldozer. But the Golds loved it and were determined to turn the hulking beast of a place into a bed and breakfast, of all things. Who could have guessed that falling ceilings, soggy floors, and peeling paint would be the least of their worries? Witch of a Friend is book number eight in the Witch Reborn Series. It is highly recommended to read the books in order as there are spoilers in the later books. Grab your cat and join Opal Ravenswind in her next grand adventure!

I spent my whole life thinking that magic had passed me by. Boy, was I wrong.Becoming an uber-powerful witch overnight isn't nearly as much fun as it sounds. Controlling unfamiliar magic is hard. Really, really hard.Adding to the level of difficulty is the fact that dead bodies keep showing up. Okay, so there's only been two so far, but in a small town like Wind's Crossing, that's a lot. Our town doesn't have all that many living people either.At least this time it isn't my family the police have in their crosshairs. Unfortunately, that isn't the good news you'd think it was.This time the prime suspects were my good friends Mabel Morgan and Tommy Hill.And no way was I letting them take the fall.Un-Familiar Magic is Book Three in the Accidental Familiar Series. It is highly recommended to read this series in order as there are major spoilers in the later books.This is a full-length, Paranormal Cozy Mystery featuring the Gemstone Coven witches... and their familiars.

Planning a wedding is never a piece of cake, but for Opal Ravenswind, it's turning downright deadly.Orville finally got his wish. We have a date set in stone for our wedding ceremony.Unfortunately setting that date just seemed to set things in motion. Bad things.Now a man is dead, things are blowing up, and, well, the bad omens just keep piling up. As a witch, I have a pretty darn strong belief in omens. They aren't meant to be taken lightly.Orville is working hard to figure everything out before I give in and just pull the plug on the whole blessed event. The stakes are just too big here.And it sure feels to me like the universe is trying to tell me I'm not meant to be a bride.Witch of a Bride is the third book in the Witch Reborn Paranormal Cozy Mystery Series. There will be spoilers from the earlier books inside. If you want to start from the beginning of Opal's tale, be sure to start with Witch of a Godmother.

My name is Tazlynn Hunt. I'm a Finder. It's what I do. I have the somewhat mysterious ability to sometimes link with missing people. Linking can make Finding much easier. Easier on the body, on the mind, on the paws. Oh yeah, I'm a Benandanti werewolf too.I make it a rule to never take on dark cases. For one thing clients don't seem to feel obligated to pay if you find their loved ones no longer among the living. For another...well it's just plain gross. I'd like to say I made an exception in the case of little Jimmy Riley because I had a sixth sense that this job would literally change my life. But the truth is my Jeep needed new tires.

The Goddess called. Team Destiny answered.Who is Team Destiny you ask? Well, we're a rag-tag bunch of witches and werewolves, with a Shaman and a couple of lawmen thrown in for good measure. When the Goddess needs help, we're there for Her.Sounds like some kind of science fiction or fantasy movie flick, doesn't it?Nope. Just my life as I now know it.The last month or so had been pretty quiet. No dead bodies showing up in awkward places. No crazy entities out to destroy the world. You know... the kinds of things that had become our usual challenges. The Universe appeared to be giving us a break for once.Enough so that Mom and Dad convinced my Aunt Opal and her new husband, Ex-Sheriff Orville Taylor, to go on a belated honeymoon.

Chaos is likely to ensue shortly.

A bored Ravenswind witch is a dangerous witch, indeed.With Amie and Opie away at a bounty hunter seminar, and Arc working crazy long hours at the firm, I'm left to my own devices. And just for the record, I totally should have been going to that event too. Not that I'm bitter about that or anything. Well, not too bitter, anyway.And wouldn't you know it, but not just one but both of our bonds agencies were fresh out of work. Or at least, that's what they told me. Personally, I think Amie had a bit to do with that.Like I can't handle chasing down a bond runner on my own or something.So there I was, with three whole days to myself to fill up, and absolutely nothing to fill them with. Until I found out that my good friend, Mabel Morgan, was being blackmailed.Now I'm on a case all by my lonesome.I'll show them that Ruby Ravenswind is a witch not to be messed with. And one that could handle herself just fine, thank you very much.I'll show them all.Yorkie Doodle Dandy is a short Gemstone Coven Paranormal Cozy Mystery Novella. No murder.

Sometimes, dealing with family is hard.When Mom scheduled a father and daughter shopping trip to the mall, I was more than a little anxious about it. It wasn't that I didn't like Archie. I did.It was just awkward. Hey, unless you've had a father you never knew you had thrown at you after twenty-three years on earth, don't judge me.Unfortunately, the day turned into more than just awkward when Archie freaked out on me in the mall.He thought he was going crazy.The reality was much, much worse.Now, as was per our usual it seemed, we were in a race against time to uncover and deal with the big baddie before it was too late for a close friend to Archie.And just maybe too late for us too.Because the big baddie we were up against this time was like nothing we'd ever faced before.It was a really good thing we had a full team at our backs, huh?Team Destiny and Archie's Apparition is the second book in the Team Destiny Paranormal Cozy Mystery Series. If you like your mysteries with strong women and a touch of magic, what are you waiting for? Jump on in, the magic is ready for you!

The most powerful witches live more than one lifetime.I've come to realize that now. The natural order of things is for a mother to raise her children. Not the other way around.My new housemate Kimberly doesn't know yet what (or who) her newborn daughter is, but I do. I was there when she was born and shared a short soul-gaze with my own mother. Someday, I'll have to break the news to Kimberly, but not today.Or this week, it looks like. Not with all the shenanigans going on in Wind's Crossing.Who would have thought buying a simple desk at an estate auction would lead to so much trouble for my little shop? The break-ins ticked me off, but I could live with them. I had my own way of handling things like that.But when the last break-in yielded a dead body? Well, a witch has to draw the line somewhere.Besides, I'm a Ravenswind Witch and head priestess of the Gemstone Coven. We don't rest until justice is served.

If someone offers you a deal that seems to be too good to be true... it usually is.All my life, I'd thought the Ravenswind farmhouse was huge. But then Opal added another small family and another soon-to-be adopted daughter to the mix. The house's space was shrinking big time.Kids can do that.I'm really not complaining, mind you. I love the new family, and I'm really glad we can be there for them. Just saying that things are getting a little crowded, that's all.So when Arc and Ruby approached me with a deal to buy a small mini-estate with not one but two houses, what was there really to think about? Especially when the owner was desperate for a sale and willing to make us a deal of a lifetime.The owner didn't strike me as all too trustworthy, though, so we did things right. The contract was vetted by Dad, and we had a full home inspection done before signing on any dotted lines.We really thought we'd covered all our bases.Oh, how wrong we were.Home Familiar Home is Book Four in the Accidental Familiar Series. It is highly recommended that you read this series in order as there are major spoilers in the later books.This is a full-length, Paranormal Cozy Mystery featuring the Gemstone Coven witches... and their familiars.

A familiar is a life-long companion. Choose wisely.It's hard being the youngest in a family of witches known for their power. It's even harder when that magical power has all but passed you by.Still, I was doing okay for myself.

You need a vacation, they said. It'll be fun, they said. Turns out, it was murder. Or very close to it.I allowed myself to be talked into taking an actual vacation. Not just any vacation, either. A honeymoon. And since my sister Sapphire and I had shared a wedding, we decided it would only be fair to share the honeymoon part of things too.Meaning just the trip, of course. We'd be keeping our men to ourselves, thank you very much.Still, seeing the Northern Lights had been on my bucket list for years, so I caved. Next thing I knew, the four of us were boarding a ship heading for Alaska.It sounded like a great idea at the time. Lots of rest and relaxation, and yes, some added cuddle time too.

The way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Unfortunately, I was never that great of a cook.I was about to be a grandmother. Of sorts. Not of actual human babies, mind you. That wouldn't have been possible as young as I am.No, my grands would be puppies. To be specific, they would be Yorkie Doodle's puppies. Bottom line, they were family.The trouble was convincing my boyfriend (and housemate) to accept the pitter-patter of an indefinite number of little pawed feet. I was afraid it wasn't going to be an easy sell. A little buttering up was in order.The way I figured it, one nice big bond runner captured, and I'd have the money to pay off our home in full.

Being a big sister is more complicated than I ever would have imagined.The time had come for me to keep my promise to Mom. Now I have to spend an entire week helping her restock her shelves with spell bags and potions.The timing was actually good, though, because there were some weird things going on at Mom's shop. Things moving around in the middle of the night, my little sister Nancy acting strange, and a new scraggly-looking mutt hanging around the back lot. A whole lot of weird.Okay, so maybe the dog wasn't really weird. All that, coupled with my faithful little Yorkie Doodle not being quite himself... well, I was more than a little stressed out.Then I started wondering if all the weird things weren't somehow related. If they were, then all things kind of pointed at Nancy as the center.Seemed about time to put being a big sister into practice. Find out just what the heck Nancy had managed to get herself into. And, more importantly, see if I could help get her out.Yorkie Doodle Sweetheart is book two of the Yorkie Doodle Mystery Series. A fun-filled adventure with not a single dead body!

Sometimes the Witches' Council gets it flat out wrong.It's not like I didn't have enough on my plate as it was.

When Coyote came to us with a problem, we were doubtful. When he told us his problem, we laughed.According to Coyote, a leprechaun had invaded his turf.

What if the Witches' Council Library was more than just a library? What if it were so, so much more... Rebecca Kimble, Librarian of the scariest library on earth, needed a break. Shoot, no one would argue that point. The woman was a saint to do what she did.But when the council drafted Ruby and me as interim librarians? Let's just say my life got interesting in a whole new way. Not a good way, either.It wasn't just the library itself, although-at least in the beginning-it was a big part of it.
