Summary: After two years together, Alex has been dreading the inevitable moment when Damon learns the truth: that Alex is a shifter, part of a small percentage of the population able to switch genders at will. Thanks to a forced implant, though, Alex is suddenly static—unable to shift—and male. Overnight, he’s out to a world that neither understands nor tolerates shifters . . . and to his heterosexual boyfriend. Damon is stunned to discover his girlfriend is a shifter, and scared to death of the dangers the implant poses to Alex’s health. He refuses to abandon Alex, but what about their relationship? Damon is straight, and with the implant both costly and dangerous to remove, Alex is stuck as a man. Stripped of half his identity and facing serious physical and social ramifications, Alex needs Damon more than ever, but he doesn’t see how they can get through this. Especially if he’s static forever. This book was previously published. Note: This book was written several years ago, and since that time, the author's understanding of gender identity has evolved. Were Static to be written today, it would include (for example) non-binary identities rather than a male/female binary.

There’s a reason this death isn’t being treated as a homicide, though, and there are people who are very motivated to keep it that way. And they’ll do whatever it takes to keep the pair of amateur sleuths from uncovering the truth.

Summary: Prince Venedict Semyonov (Ven to his friends) enjoyed running the town of Rockville. An ancient vampire, he had pretty much seen it all and done it all, if the stories told about him were all true. So when he was informed he was due to meet with an alpha wolf shifter, who was asking for sanctuary in his territory, he didn't think a lot about it. Besides, he always thought it was nice to do things for the less fortunate. Alpha Conroy Donel (Con to all who knew him) was running on fumes and the very last inch of his patience. Since his twin brother's death six weeks before, he was doing his best to keep the remains of the small pack he'd inherited together - a job made a lot more difficult by his grief, and suspicions he had about the people he was supposedly leading. Moving the pack to Rockville was supposed to give them all time to grieve and carve out new lives for themselves, if only he could get his pack to agree. The meeting between the two leaders caused fireworks, and not the kind wished for by either man. But as Con delved deeper into the mystery surrounding his brother's death he had to wonder who he could trust anymore. When the danger gets closer, Ven and Con have to work together, if they are ever to have the HEA promised to them by the Fates. This is a standalone MM Vampire and Wolf Shifter true mates story.

Being sent to Arrowtown to track down a faint lead on a missing rhino shifter was an everyday occurrence.

In his head it was simple - go to Arrowtown, sample some local fun and head home again. That was, until he heard a certain man laugh... Keenak, known as Kee to everyone around him, hadn't been working at Cam's bar in Arrowtown long, but he already felt as though he'd found a permanent home. The people were friendly, he was renting a cute little apartment, and Brutus at the bakery made the best bear claws he'd ever had. It was nice, to just stop running - to shoot the breeze with the locals at the bar, and sleep in a warm bed at night. Cam's dislike of men in suits added to his feeling comfortable... until two men in suits came to town. Pixie dust doesn't always make rainbows. When people start coming out of the woodwork after Kee, the two men must make a choice - run and pray no one catches up to them, or trust in the people of Arrowtown to keep them safe.
