Bite-Sized Magic

Rose won back her family's magical Cookery Booke in an international baking competition in A Dash of Magic, the second novel in the series.

With the magically enhanced Dinkies and Moony Pies, Mr. Butter plans to take over the world. Together with her brothers, their talking cat and mouse, and an unlikely team of bakers, Rose must overthrow Mr. Butter before he destroys civilization, one magically evil snack cake at a time.

Fangs for the Bite


Book Description

~ a tasteful tale of murder When the Swedish, vampire, librarian, Professor Goreson is savagely murdered, the future of Fangsters, my academy for delinquent teenagers with fangs, is threatened. Now I have to catch the killer and restore peace to our school quickly, or my blackmailing boss will expose my secret. The biggest complication to me getting anything done is Onyx, a vampire who oversees security and acts as my second-in-command. He wants to get rid of me and is making my life pure hell. To make matters worse, the guy is devastatingly handsome and charismatic in a dark, dangerous, night stalker way. It’s impossible to ignore the growing sexual tension between us. Forced into a dangerous game of cat and mouse with a killer, I find myself relying not only on the sly Onyx but also on a werewolf protector named Leroy. The way he snarls at Onyx warms my heart. In this new world where danger lurks around every corner, I'm willing to do whatever it takes to survive and find the murderer. As I dig deeper into the mystery, secrets unravel that threaten to tear everything apart. Will I make it out alive? Will I be able to solve the case before it's too late? And can I keep my secret safe for another day. My name is Rebel Black. I’m the book-nerd witch dragged into the bloody world of the living dead. I'm forced to run an academy for teenage predators in a small Pacific Northwest coastal town called Mystic Keep. No one understands my plight, no one can comprehend the horrors of my life, yet here I am—tasked with providing enlightenment to the darkest creatures this world has ever seen—and solve a few murders on the side.

The City is a different world from the one Danny--now called Doc--knew, and literally so. Long-vanished powers have returned, and more is going on in the streets than nightlife and street warfare.

Any Way the Wind Blows


Book Description

New York Times bestselling author Rainbow Rowell's epic fantasy, the Simon Snow trilogy, concludes with Any Way the Wind Blows. In Carry On, Simon Snow and his friends realized that everything they thought they understood about the world might be wrong. And in Wayward Son, they wondered whether everything they understood about themselves might be wrong. Now, Simon and Baz and Penelope and Agatha must decide how to move forward. For Simon, that means choosing whether he still wants to be part of the World of Mages — and if he doesn't, what does that mean for his relationship with Baz? Meanwhile Baz is bouncing between two family crises and not finding any time to talk to anyone about his newfound vampire knowledge. Penelope would love to help, but she's smuggled an American Normal into London, and now she isn't sure what to do with him. And Agatha? Well, Agatha Wellbelove has had enough. Any Way the Wind Blows takes the gang back to England, back to Watford, and back to their families for their longest and most emotionally wrenching adventure yet. This book is a finale. It tells secrets and answers questions and lays ghosts to rest. The Simon Snow Trilogy was conceived as a book about Chosen One stories; Any Way the Wind Blows is an ending about endings—about catharsis and closure, and how we choose to move on from the traumas and triumphs that try to define us.

Dying Bites


Book Description

DD Barant launches The Bloodhound Files with Dying Bites—a "fresh and original take on urban fantasy" (Romantic Times) with a heroine who's "remarkable, strong-willed and smart" (Publishers Weekly). Her job description is the "tracking and apprehension of mentally-fractured killers." What this really means in FBI profiler Jace Valchek's brave new world—one in which only one percent of the population is human—is that a woman's work is never done. And reality is getting stranger every day... Jace has been ripped from her reality by David Cassius, the vampire head of the NSA. He knows that she's the best there in the business, and David needs her help in solving a series of gruesome murders of vampires and werewolves. David's world—one that also includes lycanthropes and golems—is one with little knowledge of mental illness. An insane serial killer is a threat the NSA has no experience with. But Jace does. Stranded in a reality where Bela Lugosi is a bigger box office draw than Bruce Willis and every full moon is Mardi Gras, Jace must now hunt down a fellow human before he brings the entire planet to the brink of madness. Or she may never see her own world again...
