“I suggest you brush up on your hexes, babes. Sounds like you got a nasty one on your hands.”As the bastard child of the late Erlking, Detective Avery Hemlock is used to being alone. Two-hundred years ago, she preferred it. But after endangering Saga Trygg’s life by involving her in a case, Avery must choose solitude for Saga’s safety. For once, alone is starting to feel a lot more like lonely. Following her grandmother’s murder, and the discovery of the fey world, Saga is trying to find direction, heal, and figure out where she fits in in this new version of normal. Though she longs to enlist Avery’s help, after jeopardizing their last case together and nearly getting herself killed, she knows it’s best she stay out of the detective’s way. But when the death of a local witch might be the result of a vicious revenge hex, the enigmatic circumstances and puzzle are too curious to keep them apart. With a case bigger than it appears, the two must uncover secrets even the Winter Council wants to keep. Nothing is initially as it seems, even the truths they themselves have held for years.

From the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of Things We Never Got Over "Just because I don't run around with a stupid grin on my face all day every day doesn't mean I'm grumpy." Ryan Sosa, grumpy former corporate accountant, has had it up to here with surprises. He didn't see getting fired coming. And he certainly didn't anticipate flying across the country to the world's hippie-est, happiest, most annoying town to save his great-uncle from some mysterious emergency. Not only is there actual snow on the ground, it also appears that elves on psychedelics have decked Blue Moon's halls. But he doesn't have time to be snarky about the impending Winter Solstice and Multicultural Holiday Celebration--whatever the hell that is. Not when he's got a farm to save, a free-range sheep that he may or may not have nudged with his stupid microscopic rental car, and some small-town veterinarian telling him she can't take the animal off his hands. Dr. Sammy Ames has a practice to manage and a fundraising crisis to attend to. She doesn't have time to deal with a big-city grouch who doesn't remember being her first kiss ever. Especially not since he wants to dump a sheep named Stan on her. So not happening. No matter how cute--and pantless--Ryan is when he's drunk. Besides, as soon as he solves his uncle's problem, he'll be on the first flight out of Blue Moon, never to return again. It will take a Winter Solstice Miracle or perhaps some matchmaking interference from the Beautification Committee to get these two to see eye-to-eye under the mistletoe...unless he's the wrong Ryan after all.

*The limited deluxe edition will come with gorgeous designed edges and spot gloss* Phoenix is a hot drummer with a bad attitude. Tom is a punk-rock singer who's too hard to impress. Two problem children of their bands have one shot at making it big in this M/M rockstar romance?if they don't burn it all down. From New York Times bestselling authors Krista and Becca Ritchie comes the next in the Cobalt Empire series, perfect for fans of Elle Kennedy, Elsie Silver, and Liz Tomforde. Tom Cobalt has been called a lot of things. Arrogant god. Overachiever. Demanding, uncooperative jerk. It comes with the territory of being the fifth-born of a storied family. Not even his own punk-rock band can meet his high standards. So when every member of The Carraways quits on him before finishing an album, he's left with a bruised ego and a major dilemma. Reviving his childhood dream comes down to one infuriating choice: pair up with a hard-edged drummer or be dropped by his music label permanently. Phoenix St. Pierre has enough baggage to ground every plane in New York City. He's volatile, sleep-deprived, and still carrying the fallout of imploding his own band. He should not be paired with Tom, the stuck-up trust-fund baby who pushes all his buttons?yet the second chance is impossible to walk away from. Making music means too much to Phoenix and Tom to let this last shot slip through their fingers. But working together feels like a Shakespearean disaster ready to unfold. Especially when off-the-charts chemistry, undeniable attraction, and destructive habits threaten to make or break them. It's nothing personal?but they just might be the best and worst thing that ever happened to each other.
