Her promise just might be his undoing. To save Nord, Lina would do anything. Even bloodswear a vow to the infamous King of the Underground. But when Crombie comes to collect, no one is prepared for the chain of events he sets off. Now she's missing, and Quinn and Finley must help Nord before he tears the world apart in his search for her. Because when a berserker's mate is in jeopardy, there's no line he won't cross, no sin he won't commit, to rescue her. Only a fool-or a fae prince-would be stupid enough to invoke a berserker's wrath. And now, everyone must answer to the monster he unleashed. Promise of Danger is book 4 in the Undercover Magic series and picks up right where World of Danger leaves off. You don't want to miss out on the next installment of this fast-paced, steamy, and downright addictive paranormal series! Recommended for ages 18+ due to adult language, content, and scenes with graphic violence.

“McMahon unfurls a whirlwind of suspense...Combining murder mystery and coming-of-age tale with supernatural elements, this taut novel is above all a reflection on the haunting power of memory.” –Entertainment Weekly A woman’s past and present collide in terrifying ways in this explosive debut by New York Times bestselling author Jennifer McMahon. Forty-one-year-old school nurse Kate Cypher has returned home to rural Vermont to care for her mother, who's afflicted with Alzheimer's. On the night she arrives, a young girl is murdered—a horrific crime that eerily mirrors another from Kate's childhood. Three decades earlier, her dirt-poor friend Del—shunned and derided by classmates as "Potato Girl"—was brutally slain. Del's killer was never found, while the victim has since achieved immortality in local legends and ghost stories. Now, as this new murder investigation draws Kate irresistibly in, her past and present collide in terrifying, unexpected ways. Because nothing is quite what it seems . . . and the grim specters of her youth are far from forgotten. More than just a murder mystery, Jennifer McMahon's extraordinary debut novel, Promise Not to Tell, is a story of friendship and family, devotion and betrayal—tautly written, deeply insightful, beautifully evocative, and utterly unforgettable.

KINGDOMS WILL RISE AND FALL FOR HER Cat Fisa isn't who she pretends to be. She's perfectly content living disguised as a soothsayer in a traveling circus, avoiding the destiny the Gods—and her dangerous family—have saddled her with. As far as she's concerned, the magic humming within her blood can live and die with her. She won't be a pawn in anyone's game.

Griffin knows Cat is the Kingmaker—the woman who divines truth through lies—and he wants her to be a powerful weapon for his newly conquered realm. Kidnapping her off the street is simple enough, but keeping her by his side is infuriatingly tough.
