A gargoyle, a leprechaun, and a motorcycle gang walk into a bar....Scratch that. A human woman (me) accidentally walks into a Faerie bar run by a leprechaun who keeps a cursed gargoyle on a shelf. Somehow, that gargoyle goes home with me, and I start dreaming of a man. Doran. He's trapped in stone and darkness, and only I can free him. He says I'm the treasurekeeper, and I need to find his friends, the other treasures, so we can break his curse. He haunts me night and day, driving me to hurry. I can't sleep. I can't think. I have to find them. I have to free him.

Eleanor "Ellie" Rockwell thought her days of excitement were over. After being laid off from her corporate job at forty-nine, she moved to the small town of Tablerock, Texas, opened the Silver Circle Cat Rescue, and settled into a quiet life with her daughter, Evie.

Conn’s confident charm throws her off balance, a perilous place to be in conditions like these. Especially when cold nights require close contact.

I'm a walking contradiction. School principal who liberally drops the F bomb. Fiercely independent yet willing to auction myself off for charity. Serial monogamist who's down for a no-strings one-night stand. Except now I've gone from one-working ovary to coparent in the time it took a stick to turn blue. F. Bomb. Ian Donovan may be a richer-than-hell venture capitalist, but he's no Prince Charming ready to sweep me off my feet. Good thing I don't need him. I've been doing fine on my own for forty years, and I'm not about to start changing that now.

Working at a shop called the Vagile Ajna in a town called Cummings Cove, across the street from a store named Cummings Master Baiter, was clearly not enough for me. I had to go and find myself a police chief named Phoquin, two shifter twins who tend to "lose" their pants, and a murder. I don’t know why I expected things to be normal in a place that offers visitors a “Cummings Good Time”, but I certainly didn’t expect to be charged with murder.

I was just me, Delaney Jones, a waitress and amateur fighter from Detroit. Now I’m a newbie witch, just barely scraping by in my classes, and, oh yeah, fighting off attempts on my life from people who think I’m some Chosen One. Good thing the cafeteria is stocked with all the comfort food I need. And I need a lot. Most of the students hate me. The council that runs the academy might be dirty. And it’s putting it nicely to say my witchy powers are a tad bit erratic. But I’m up to the challenge.

I was raised in a world full of more death than life, surrounded by the blood-curdling violence and nauseating stench of zombies. And 20 years after the Outbreak, it doesn’t seem to be changing any time soon. After a devastating loss rocks my little group of survivors, I’m forced to venture out of my comfort zone in an attempt to find help - straight into the impenetrable walls of El Castillo.

I've stepped onto an alien world to surrender myself to my nemesis. But my captor isn't what he seems. Becoming his prisoner is the only way to save a friend and get closer to my precious fae babies - my faebies. I don't plan on staying in captivity for long, though, because Faith and Abel need me. The history books lied about the Unseelie Court. Strange things are afoot. War is brewing close to the surface. I might even be able to stop it...or start it, depending on my actions.

Going into Briarwitch Academy, I wasn't a big fan of supernaturals. But I learned to appreciate something: Other than their magic and unreasonable attractiveness (seriously, it's not fair), they're not so different than humans. There are good ones and bad ones. Currently, I have a bad one locked away. I'm eager - maybe too eager - to pry some answers out of him. I need to know where my babies were taken. I need to know who's killing people on campus. I need to know who's involved in the shady plots surrounding Briarwitch like a fog.

Senator Rylos bought me. But he'll never make me his. I'll admit those are strong words for a woman who trembles at his touch. But I can't help it. His kind are as beautiful as they are cruel.

Because my goal is to escape. I keep telling myself it'll be easy. Why does it feel like I'm lying?
