Megan has lost the dragon mage Enfys to Mordred. Now she has only a short amount of time before she must present Enfys for a wellness check with the Irish dragon queen. Consumed with guilt and fear, Megan has to find the dragon mage, free her, and hope that she is forgiven before the Irish queen decides Megan is only good for a tasty snack when her highness is feeling hangry.

At best, she's expecting a kitschy candy dish, at worst a beloved taxidermied pet, so when Cassie—newly divorced, single mom with zero prospects—discovers she's inheriting a fully stocked bakery along with a beautifully furnished apartment from a mysterious great aunt, she's convinced she must be dreaming. The apartment that bizarrely adapts itself to her whims, and the friendly neighbor floating fireballs over her head, aren't helping.

Marooned on ruined Terra, Kelsey Bandar and Jared Mertz must march to the Imperial Palace to recover the key to defeating the savage AIs that have enslaved humanity.

Over the course of six months, Cassie has gotten divorced, inherited a magical bakery, discovered she’s a witch, gotten stuck in a secret passage, gotten kidnapped, rescued her daughter from the worst of all horrors (a stuffy all girl’s boarding school), and has made the best friends anyone could ever ask to have. She’s well overdue for a break. It’s too bad that the oldest witch in town is determined to make her life as challenging as possible, in the most annoying ways imaginable. Or that a fortune teller has foretold someone from her past is coming to shake everything up.

Megan's world has shattered. The love of her life is gone, leaving her hollow and consumed by grief.

Now that her father has moved in, her daughter is finally settled, and her bakery is everything she dreamed it could be, Cassie should be able to sit back and enjoy her new life as a magical baker. But a string of disasters are disrupting business, her magic is going wonky, and her burgeoning relationship with the deputy sheriff is threatening her already shaky stability.

In a desperate move, Brigid defeated the witches, but now she is stuck in Faerie with zero ideas, or the power, to get back home. At least her cat and her bestie are with her.

If Brigid had any luck, a wild Fae creature would eat Sofia, but Brigid's luck ran out years ago. Lost in a foreign realm, Brigid has to navigate the Fae court without insulting anyone or inadvertently causing a civil war.

Wytovich plays madam in a collection of erotic horror that challenges the philosophical connection between death and orgasm. There's a striptease that happens in Brothel that is neither fact nor fiction, fantasy nor memory. It is a dance of eroticism, of death and decay. The human body becomes a service station for pain, for pleasure, for the lonely, the confused. Sexuality is hung on the door, and the act of love is far from anything that's decent. Her women spread their legs to violence then smoke a cigarette and get on all fours.
