CHOSEN In the aftermath of a fatal fever that nearly wipes out the world's population, survivor Jessica Monroe encounters the sensitive and helpful Jace...who just might be hiding secrets of his own. TAKEN With her djinn lover imprisoned by a survivalist group intent on eradicating all his kind, Jessica Monroe teams up with another of the Chosen to make the dangerous journey into the heart of Los Alamos. FALLEN When a group of rogue djinn attacks Taos, Jessica Monroe has no choice but to activate the device that was created to rid the elementals of their supernatural powers, even though the machine's very existence threatens to ruin the lives of her lover and friends. BROKEN Julia Innes, leader of the Immune survivors in Los Alamos, has done her best to ensure that the rest of her fellow Immune have settled into their new lives after the Dying. Even the friendly Santa Fe djinn have followed suit, creating a calm between the two cities — a world of peaceful co-existence. But all is not as it seems... FORSAKEN Ever since the Dying, Madison Reynolds has been in hiding. Leaving her underground sanctuary means risking her life at the hands of vengeful elementals hellbent on killing off the world's few remaining survivors. But when her curiosity and need for exploration get the best of her, she crosses paths with Qadim al-Syan, the new steward of Albuquerque…. FORBIDDEN Imprisoned in the outer circles of the otherworld, Aldair al-Ankara is doomed to unending suffering. Believing he’ll never escape, he’s accepted his dismal fate. But when destiny steps in, everything changes for Aldair. AWOKEN When Jordan is caught stealing supplies, she only hopes her bullet will slow down the tall, muscular djinn long enough to escape and continue her journey to the last remaining human outpost. Hasan al-Abyad plans to ferret out the fascinating, sad-eyed beauty’s secrets. Where she’s from. Where she’s going…and especially why she was never Chosen. ILLUMINATED Snowdrifts aren’t the only things that pose a danger in the mountain town of Cloudcroft, New Mexico. The only way to save her is reveal the extent of his magic…and trust that love will light her way to the safety of his arms. STOLEN Cornered by a djinn who’s been tracking her, Leila braces herself to be killed. Instead, her captor kisses her—and whisks her away to sanctuary. Once Malik convinces her that she is his Chosen, she’ll be safe. But evil waits for Malik to turn his back for one crucial moment…. FORGOTTEN When the Heat wipes out most of humanity, Deirdre builds a device that disables any nearby djinn. Amaal, trapped by one human woman carrying a device capable of rendering him helpless, resolves to use their attraction to gain her trust — and his freedom. He just never expected to lose his heart. DRIVEN Bailey easily eludes the djinn reavers in her “salvaged” Porsche…until she encounters the one djinn who just won’t give up. Guilt nearly crushes Nasim when he causes Bailey to crash. As she heals, he realizes she’s his Chosen. If he wins the race for her heart — best two out of three. UNSPOKEN When Idris, a djinn elder, encounters Amber, a young human woman he saved from attack during the Dying, each touch strengthens the desire humming between them. But he is acutely aware that Amber will soon be forced to choose between two paths…neither of which can ever lead to his arms.

This book was released on 2022-05-11 with total page 669 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The small town of Globe, Arizona, is in a world of trouble when Selena Marx, former witch to the stars — all right, psychic advisor to aspiring actors and actresses — lands there after running afoul of the leader of the Greater Los Angeles Necromancers’ Guild. All she wants is to lead a quiet life…or at least as quiet as the cursed cat she inherits when she buys her new home will allow. Unfortunately, people start turning up dead, and she attracts the attention of Calvin Standingbear, the chief of police for the local San Ramon Apache tribe. More mayhem ensues as the series continues! Hedgewitch for Hire is a lighthearted small town mystery series with an overarching romance subplot carries throughout the books. This boxed set includes the first three books in the Hedgewitch for Hire paranormal cozy series: Grave Mistake Hedgewitch Selena runs to Arizona to escape Lucien, a slimy, celebrity-schmoozing sorcerer. Just as she’s meeting the locals — including hunky Calvin Standingbear — Lucien tracks her down…then disappears. When one of Lucien’s acolytes is killed. Selena and Calvin race against time before a too-close-for-comfort evil cuts her own life short. Social Medium Becoming an Instagram star sounded like a good way to promote Selena’s metaphysical shop, but when the dark side of social media rears its ugly head, she’s going to need all the friends she can get, including the secretive police chief Calvin Standingbear. Because online witch rivalries can be murder. Household Demons When Selena’s parents buy the most haunted Victorian mansion in town, she checks it out— and senses nothing. But the unholy racket tells her something is infesting this house. When backup arrives, the house strikes back. Now her parents are murder suspects…and Selena could be the mansion’s next victim.

As a new season of the Djinn Battle League fast approaches, Jackson prepares to enter training camp -- a grueling series of tests to discover talented new tamers. The rules are simple: if you're not the best, you go home. For a young man who lives to battle, going home isn't an option. There's only one problem -- Jackson isn't so sure he deserves to be there in the first place. With competition heating up, Jackson's bond with his Djinn will be tested to their limits. But no matter how much he trains, if his new monsters won't work together, he won't stand a chance. The fighting will be intense. The rivalries, fierce. At the end of the road, the chance of a lifetime awaits. Against friends and foes both old and new, can Jackson prove he's worthy of a shot at the big leagues? Djinn Tamer: Rivals is the second book in the Djinn Tamer series, a monster-battling LitRPG for fans of Pokemon, Digimon, and Monster Rancher.

Book excerpt: He’s determined to destroy humankind…until her tiny spark of magic changes everything. With her entire family wiped out by the Djinn-created plague called the Heat, there’s no one left to teach Isla Dunbar how to use the magic tingling deep in her body. She lives among the other survivors in the thriving Los Alamos settlement, protected by an ingenious device that repels djinn reavers. But she’s lonely. In fact, when it comes to hooking up, Isla would rather just die a virgin. When she’s tricked into wandering out of the safe zone, Isla is kidnapped by a threatening djinn determined to disable the Los Alamos device and wipe out the last of humanity. But Isla is just as determined to resist his intense interrogation — and the temptation of his dark eyes, golden skin, and shiver-inducing smile. If Aamir al-Qadir thought he would intimidate Isla into giving up all she knows, he thought wrong. Her beauty and sass are distracting enough, but something about her catches him off-guard. She’s no ordinary human, but a creature of untapped magic that makes her a prize for the power-hungry djinn. Without conscious thought, Aamir’s focus shifts from destroying Los Alamos to protecting the unusual woman who’s stolen the one thing he thought impenetrable…his heart.

Book excerpt: Their battle for survival becomes a battle for her heart…. In the harsh landscape of a world reborn from the ashes of a djinn-created apocalypse, Rowan Aames has carved out a life of solitary resilience in a remote valley in the northern New Mexico wilderness, where the arrival of Jamal al-Qadir challenges everything she knows. Disguised as James Aguilar, Jamal brings with him the promise of a new beginning…and the peril of a deep secret. Their connection is immediate, a fragile thread woven from shared solitude and cautious trust. As Rowan welcomes James into her makeshift haven, they navigate the complexities of a world where survival is a day-to-day gamble, and companionship is a rare treasure. James’s small acts of magic, meant to ease Rowan’s burden, become the catalyst for a change neither of them can ignore. Yet beneath the surface of their growing bond lies the tension of James’s true identity and the inevitable revelation that could shatter their fragile trust. When Jamal steps in to save Rowan’s life, a sudden, rash decision propels them into the crosshairs of djinn politics and human pride, where their journey becomes a delicate dance of love and deception, with the future of their relationship hinging on the courage to face the truth…and the strength to forge a new path together.

Book excerpt: Her gun was his wake-up call...until her courage stole his heart. In the shattered world that followed the Dying, djinn warrior Omar al-Qadir has only one goal: to eradicate the few humans left. Then he’s shot by lone survivor Olivia Raskin while investigating her isolated ranch. He should kill the dark-haired beauty on sight, but something in her defiant green eyes speaks to a part of his soul he’s done his best to ignore. Instead of ending her life, Omar instead becomes Olivia’s protector, dedicated to keeping her safe from the ruthless outlaw djinn Khalim al-Usar, whose depravities know no bounds. As they’re hunted from one refuge to another, Omar finds unexpected sanctuary in Olivia’s quiet strength and selfless compassion, a tenacious light in the darkness he’s immersed himself in for too long. With their latest haven engulfed in Khalim’s fury, Omar is faced with a choice — cling to the hatreds of the past, or embrace his growing love for the human woman who has reawakened his humanity. To protect her, he’ll have to become the one thing he loathes — a djinn bound to a human Chosen. Torn between duty and desire, Omar must wage the biggest battle of all — against his own fears and prejudices — to claim the soulmate who has released him from the shackles of his own making.

Book excerpt: When the past steals her future, only one man can help her reclaim it. Devynn Rowe never asked for her unpredictable gift of time travel. But when a fall in an abandoned mine shaft hurls her back to Jerome, Arizona, in 1926, she finds herself trapped in a world where her own witch clan — the Wilcoxes — are the mortal enemies of the McAllisters of Jerome. Rescued by the handsome and kind warlock Seth McAllister, Devynn weaves a web of lies to protect her true identity. As she struggles to adapt to life a century before her time, she can’t ignore the growing attraction between them. But pursuing a relationship could unravel everything she’s fought to keep hidden. Seth is drawn to the mysterious woman he found unconscious in the mine, even as his duties to his clan pull him in another direction. When family obligations thrust him into a dangerous world of bootlegging and deceit, he finds himself torn between loyalty and love. As Devynn and Seth dance around their feelings and their secrets, the truth threatens to burn away all their illusions. But time is running out. A moment of violence changes everything…catapulting them into a situation more perilous than either could have imagined.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Something’s got a spaniel familiar’s tongue…and it isn’t a cat. Charity Hughes is the first witch in more than a century to possess a gift like hers. She’s a “familiar whisperer” — someone who can communicate with other witches’ troubled familiars and resolve their problems. When Darla Fitzgerald, an influential but abrasive witch, brings in her familiar, Milo, Charity runs into a barrier she’s never before encountered. The spaniel isn’t talking. At all. And when a potion to reveal Milo’s thoughts doesn’t work, Charity calls Darla to get more information...only to learn the woman has been found dead. But that’s not the weird part. Though familiars always pass with their witches, Milo is hale and hearty. After something — or someone — attacks the dog, Charity desperately calls local vet (and secret crush) Noah Jenkins for help. Now Charity is walking a double tightrope: How to manage her attraction to Noah without revealing the world of witches right under his nose...while trying to figure out who would go to any lengths — including dognapping — to ensure Milo stays silent as the grave. Note: Spells and Spaniels is Book 1 in USA Today bestselling author Christine Pope’s newest series, “Familiar Spirits”. Contains a slow-burn romance that develops over the course of the series, a murder mystery of Olympic proportions, and an adorable cocker spaniel who needs his Wubby.
