Lee


One stolen chair. One ancient egg. One night that changed everything. I never expected a stolen chair to change my destiny. But there she was—a pint-sized firecracker with curves that made my wolf howl, claiming my favorite seat at the bar. I should've walked away. Instead, I found myself rescuing her from trouble, then agreeing to help her retrieve some ancient egg that practically hummed with supernatural energy. We raced against time through a city teeming with shadowy creatures, and I couldn't tell if the electricity in the air was from the egg's magic or the way Natalie's touch set my skin ablaze. My wolf was restless, sensing something bigger at play. Every choice we made sent ripples through the supernatural world, and I started to think this wasn't just chance. One thing was certain—this wasn't the quiet night I planned, but it might have been exactly what I needed. Get ready for a steamy paranormal romance filled with danger, destiny, and undeniable chemistry. ___________________________________________________________________Praise for the Shifter Days, Vampire Nights & Demons in Between series:? Fun and exciting. ? I can't wait for more. ? So much fun diving into this. ? These two brought the heat. ? This one had it all.

Partner swapping? Why not. Being trapped inside the plot of a sci-fi film would almost be inspiring for LA screenwriter Carly Hart…if she wasn’t waking up at her dad’s funeral every single day. Carly wants out. Funeral director Adam Rhodes is equally frustrated. Every loop, Adam regenerates in the middle of a fight with his ex-wife. Her infidelity wrecked their perfect life together, and now Adam must relive her confession over and over again. There’s only one solution to ending the misery: breaking the time loop. Easier said than done. And there’s another hurdle to overcome: Carly and Adam can’t stand each other. Though strangers at best, Carly and Adam know they must work together to solve this cosmic mystery. But where Carly offers magical theories, Adam relies on facts and figures. When Carly wants to involve the local conspiracy theorist, Adam would rather work alone. The sooner they find a solution, the sooner they’ll never have to see each other again, yet somehow the tension between the two is hotter than a solar flare and as rare as the daily total solar eclipse. Maybe Carly and Adam are destined to be in each other’s orbit after all…FOR FANS OF:Enemies to loversA literal roll in the hayA magical time loopSmall town vibesOpen-door spiceDual POV
