Book excerpt: Featuring an enemies-to-lovers romance and a savvy female P.I., this laugh-out-loud urban fantasy will keep you up all night. "Wilde combines hardboiled noir and Jewish folklore in this action-packed, perfectly paced paranormal romp… This giddy, sexy series… is a delight.” - Publishers Weekly (starred review) Missing teens. Impossible magic. And the sexy nemesis who might drive her to murder. Ashira Cohen takes great pride in the detective agency she’s built from scratch. It may be small, but she harbors big dreams of becoming a renowned sleuth. Thing is, a modern-day Sherlock Holmes wouldn’t let her stakeout go sideways. Or find a mysterious tattoo hidden on her scalp. Or discover it’s a now-broken ward that was suppressing dangerous magic she had no idea she possessed. Don’t even get her started on the golem. The only bright spot is that her new unruly powers nearly kill her long-time nemesis, Levi, the irritatingly hot leader of the magic community. No, right… that’s a bad thing. One word from him revealing her forbidden abilities and she’ll be locked up for life, with everything she’s built taken from her by force. Definitely a bad thing. Except… It seems Levi requires her unique set of skills to solve a spree of abductions. This is her shot. Sure, there’s a sinister supernatural organization pulling strings from the shadows, but Ash is positive she can rescue the captives, uncover the truth, and take her career to a new level. Plus, after years of being underestimated by Levi, it’s Ash’s chance at payback. And she’s going to relish bringing him to his knees.

Book excerpt: Featuring an enemies-to-lovers romance and a savvy female P.I., this giddy sexy detective series will keep you up all night. Ash wanted a career filled with challenging mysteries. She should have specified she didn’t mean her family. When a murder scene reveals a connection to Ash’s father who abandoned her when she was thirteen, she's stunned. He may be the key to stopping Chariot from achieving immortality. The catch? He could be hiding anywhere in the world. To make matters worse, Levi, Ash's romantic entanglement and brand-new boss, has his first official case for her: helping his ex-girlfriend, a.k.a. Ash's childhood tormentor. No one ever said adulting was easy. As secrets multiply and alliances get deadlier, Ash's investigation takes her back into Hedon and into her own past. Cracking this case could reunite her family... or cost her everyone she holds dear. Actual ghosts have nothing on the ghosts of her past.

Book excerpt: Featuring an enemies-to-lovers romance and a savvy female P.I., this laugh-out-loud urban fantasy will keep you up all night. Angel of Death. Black market magic. When you’re Ashira Cohen, smart is the new kickass. When Ash is hired to solve her first murder, it seems like a perfectly normal, open-and-shut case of family feuds and bad blood. Until Ash discovers an evil magical artifact and her lead suspect is of the winged, white-robed, celestial variety. As if that weren't bad enough, if she can't find the perpetrator quickly, fourteen vials of lethal, ghostly magic will be sold to the highest bidder. Her quest to figure out her Jezebel powers and find the shadowy organization responsible for stripping teens of their magic isn't going any smoother, either. Can't a girl just pursue her dream career without getting caught up in a mysterious destiny or playing a dangerous Sherlock-Moriarty game with her annoyingly hot nemesis? But when Ash accidentally crosses the cunning and deadly Queen of Hearts, ruler of the magic black market, all those cases may go unresolved. Permanently. With the clock ticking, it’ll take all of Ash’s intelligence to survive with her moral center–and her head–intact. The game is afoot and failure is not an option.

Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling sensation Gena Showalter enthralls with a dark, tantalizing world of humans, otherworlders, powers beyond imagining, and a seductive vampire undone by his insatiable hunger for one woman. Growing up poor on New Chicago’s meanest streets, Ava Sans had two options: be the predator or be the prey. No contest. Now, working for Alien Investigation and Removal, she’s been ordered to capture the biggest, baddest warrior of all—a vampire too beautiful to be real, with the abilityto manipulate time. Once the leader of the entire vampire army, McKell has been deemed savage and unstable, spurned even by his own kind. To McKell, humans should be nothing more than sustenance. Yet the petite, golden-skinned Ava is a fascinating contradiction—vicious yet witty, strong yet vulnerable, lethal but fiercely loyal. Against his better judgment, McKell craves that loyalty, and much more. When the chase leads to seduction, McKell and Ava will race to discover the truth about his past. But the answers will come at a price, even for a woman who thought she had nothing left to lose...

The truth will need to be uncovered one layer at a time, starting with the box that arrives at Cop Central addressed to Eve, containing Coltraine’s guns, badge, and a note from her killer: “You can have them back. Maybe someday soon, I’ll be sending yours to somebody else.” But Eve Dallas doesn’t take too kindly to personal threats, and she is going to break this case, whatever it takes. And that’s a promise.
