The election campaign for Sheriff is heating up in Devil's Orchard, but Bobbi's been called away to visit a supernatural town in the middle of the Arizona desert. The mysterious book that holds the answers to her mother's disappearance has been stolen and an explosion leaves the magical archives in a pile of rubble and ash. It's no coincidence that the blast happened the day of Bobbi's arrival, and she finds herself accused of the crime. The residents of this town are notoriously tight-lipped to outsiders, and Bobbi makes more than a few enemies during her search for the truth.

The cozy town of Devil’s Orchard has been overrun with all types of misfits and miscreants as they host a reptile expo. The sponsors of the event are none other than Rexx Cobra and Dirk Dagger, two '80s rockers who don’t know the meaning of the word restraint. When Dirk’s found dead of an apparent snake bite, the sheriffs are quick to rule it an accident. Bobbi’s not so sure, because a lot of things don’t add up—like how the guitarist had a lot of enemies and more than a few secrets that he was trying to hide from the tabloids.

They took everything from her. Her family. Her home. Her future. Her humanity. It’s only right she returns the favor. No one will stop Ainsley and her dragon horde from laying waste to her enemies, and anyone who dares get in the way. No one except him. Only love can save her from the dark, swirling depths of her grief and pain, and it would have, if Dominic had been fast enough.

It's a beautiful day in the small town of Devil's Orchard when Bobbi's grandmother informs her she's actually a witch. Not just any old witch, either. Bobbi is part of a long line of demon-slayers. Bobbi, who can't step on a cockroach without squealing, is a demon-slayer? Yeah right. She's tempted to write the whole thing off as a stress-induced hallucination. Especially when the dumpster-diving fox starts talking....

For Elsie Thorn, the only magic in her life is somehow being able to make the rent every month. Until a mysterious woman makes her an offer too good to be true. Did she read the contract? No. Who really reads through the pages of terms and conditions? It's not like she's going to get whisked to a fairytale town with cobblestone streets, castles and a dragon hatchery with the hunkiest mountain man caretaker she’s ever laid eyes on... right? Oops.

Twenty-year-old Ainsley No-Name is nothing. She’s less than nothing. Just another faceless orphan stealing to feed her foster brothers and sisters. When three men snatch her off the street and drag her into the woods, she knows it’s the end. Until she came. Scales the color of flame and brimstone, a dragon drops out of the sky and saves her. With that, the sacred bond between rider and dragon is formed……and her execution is set in stone.

With dragon eggs stolen and a murderer on the loose only days before the Broom Racing Festival, Elsie has once again found herself in the hot seat. She’s vowed to get the eggs back–even if she has to team up with her biggest (and most baldheaded) enemy to do it. It should be a straightforward case… until a journalist is found dead at the local inn.

Just when her life couldn’t get any more perfect, Bobbi is offered the chance to have her cafe featured on TV. But when a local fishing boat hauls up more than cod in its net (Spoiler alert: It’s a dead body) production grinds to a halt. If she wants her 15 minutes of fame, she’s going to have to track down the killer herself.

Life in Devil’s Orchard has always been a three-ring circus, but did it have to include murder on a witch’s wedding day? To celebrate their wedding in true Devil’s Orchard fashion, Bobbi and Grant have organized a carnival and invited the whole town. What could possibly go wrong? Just everything, of course!

A group of paranormal investigators have come to Devil’s Orchard to make contact with the spirit residing in town’s bed and breakfast. Their goal? To finally solve the mystery of who haunts the building–and why. Unaware of her witchly powers, they invite Bobbi to assist in the séance. Bobbi’s jumps at the chance to help a lost soul.

Catching a sneaky poisoner, slaying a demonic doll, teaching a cooking class - and going on a date? One false move, and Bobbi's life is going to turn into a dumpster fire. When a fellow witch from their coven decides to visit Devil's Orchard, Bobbi's thrilled to learn more about her own strange brand of fire magic. Until the magic lessons start, and she soon realizes that this witch makes Granny look downright sane.

Under Granny’s strict tutelage, Bobbi is learning to master her fire magic. Sort of. Truth is, she’s still got a long way to go if she’s to become the next Guardian of the Rift. Especially since she’s started to manifest strange new powers, ones no other witch has ever seen. Not to mention she’s been hired to cater a huge party and has to find a shapeshifting demon on the loose. A witch has only got so many hours in the day. But when a local drifter turns up dead and the sheriff closes in on Natalie’s husband as the prime suspect, Bobbi will have to make time...

When Elsie’s friends are accused of murdering a vineyard owner, she’s has to prove their innocence…even if it means uncorking more than a few secrets. It’s easy to see why Wilson is framed for the murder. His mother was fired from the vineyard on bad terms, and everyone in town seems to think he was out for revenge. It doesn’t help that the murder weapon is found in his dragon Bessie’s saddlebag.

With her favorite '80s hair-metal band in town, Bobbi's as starstruck as they come. But when the guitarist is found dead of an apparent snake bite, the sheriffs are quick to rule it an accident. Bobbi’s not so sure, because a lot of things don’t add up—like how the guitarist had a lot of enemies and more than a few secrets that he was trying to hide from the tabloids. But none of that compares to the shock when Grant tells her that he’s got a big announcement about his fiancée…

I dreamt of being saved by noble Aurelian warriors. Instead, I was abducted by savages. They come through the portal in a fury of blood and violence, destroying my captors without mercy. They will have none for me, either. Aurelians demand total obedience. The brands mark my rescuers as Fanatics who serve the Old Ways. And when they find their Mate, they possess her body and soul. I’ve traded one captivity for another, pulled from serving a cruel lord to living in a mansion on a planet ruled by warriors, priests, and a vengeful alien War-God.

Mortals fall, Ascended rise, and Gods consume. The planar energy crisis is now fact; proof written into the very air of the Nexusplane. For the first time in immeasurable history, the eternally luminescent Realm of the Gods knows night. Everything has changed…The Council continues to operate as it doesn’t; with seemingly no consideration to those outside itself. Within its labyrinth of bureaucracy, officials and agents play their petty games. Not even they can tell if their actions bear any relevance to the imminent threat.

Based on the true story of the celebrated Nancy Hart Rifles, The Cotillion Brigade is a sweeping epic of the Civil War’s ravages on family and love, the resilient bonds of sisterhood amid devastation, and the miracle of reconciliation between bitter enemies. 1856. Sixteen-year-old Nannie Colquitt Hill makes her debut in the antebellum society of the Chattahoochee River plantations. A thousand miles to the north, a Wisconsin farm boy, Hugh LaGrange, joins an Abolitionist crusade to ban slavery in Bleeding Kansas.

A crown is always heavy, or it is not a crown. Maeve Almeida thought she had left other worlds behind her 15 years ago. Back when she crowned her friend Sebastian as the new high king of the Five Realms. But as years passed and the way between the worlds remained closed to her, she began to put her memories to paper. Much to her surprise, her stories gained a moderate cult following, were adapted to film, and she soon found herself a C-list celebrity with a wide audience.

Ra’al. Orr. Kriz. Three enormous beast of men who command a legion of Aurelians, the huge, marble-skinned aliens who exist to find their Fated Mate and tame her. They were built for war. Kings through conquest, they stamp down all resistance without mercy. They tell me they will build me a palace. It would only be a cage. But because I took up a rifle and defended the other servants when our planet was under attack, by the laws of their species, I am a free woman…

I was born in Cinco City. I suffered in Cinco City. I fought, scraped, cried, and bled in Cinco City, and all the time, I did it alone. Not this time. With Sunny, Liam, River, and Bane on my side, it's the Brotherhood who'll know what it is to have everything they wanted in the palm of their hands until it's all ripped away. Stand aside, Cinco. There's a new queen ruling this city, and with my Savage Princes by my side, I'm unstoppable.
