Summary: Pursued by angels for a crime she didn't commit. Goddess turned muse Melinda Grace is on the run. She realises after the death of her client — renowned sculptor, Misha Drake — that she's the only likely suspect. Drake wasn't just murdered — his soul was ripped apart, and only an enormously powerful being could've killed him. Facing the prospect of hiding out indefinitely or handing herself over, Melinda also feels driven to solve the crime. Seraphim Aurelia is under orders to work with the Archangel Raphael in bringing Drake's killer to justice. Part of her mandate is to pursue the absent goddess Melinda, who is now the prime suspect in the case. This brings her to the city of New York — a hub for the supernatural community — and on course to cross paths with the runaway goddess. She isn't sure what she'll find, but she couldn't have expected to fall in love. Goddess of Mischief is a F/F urban fantasy romance novella that contains steamy content. Please note: Goddess of Mischief appeared in the Castings and Curses anthology during its limited run.

Summary: A Slow Burn Meet Cute! Baker. Wizard. God of Space and Time. Cupcake enthusiast. How long will it take to fan the flames and enrage this gentle phoenix? Start counting. What's a wounded and lonely little cinnamon roll to do? Stripped of his psychic powers, Calico Winghorse flees his homeworld and travels to 19th century Earth via his inter-dimensional portal. As a mixed-blood phoenix trapped in human form, he opens a bakery in the San Francisco Bay Area and quietly nurses his wounds. But the unique method of his arrival draws the unwanted attention of Infinity Corporation. Representing this angelic-run company is Agustin Chavez de la Cruz, the Demon Lord of California. Even though Agustin is IC's heir, he finds himself demoted from his duties to concentrate on his new assignment: take absolute control of Calico's portal. But Calico refuses to sell at any price. He is also very busy ensuring that the good people of the city are getting their fill of baked goods. Before Agustin can formulate a more gracious avenue of acquiring the gateway, the demanding head of IC interferes, further complicating matters. So as negotiations stumble along, Calico and Agustin come to realize they both want more than a stuffy business arrangement. However, due to Calico's injuries, the portal remains vulnerable to the darker forces that want it at any cost. Agustin will have to push both his angelic heritage, as well as his own psychic powers to the very limits to heal this sweet baker, who is also the portal world's God of Space and Time. The Demon Lord of California is the first book of an LGBTQ+ paranormal-fantasy series. You won't want to miss a first love found, hidden worlds, and a recovering workaholic grasping at his second chance. All centered around the control of an otherworldly portal. So curl up with your favorite beverage, and hang out with Cal and Gus for a while. You'll be happy you did!
