Mistwhisper Falls was finally quiet again. Until Ivy Chen cracked open the wrong magical book.
She didn’t mean to bond with a draconic consciousness older than civilization. And she definitely didn’t mean to bind herself to the town’s most reclusive—and dangerously attractive—dragon shifter.
Dorian Ashwind didn’t do partnerships. But the shadows whispering in his mind aren’t going away, and the only person who can translate the Chronicle’s cursed pages is the painfully smart, infuriatingly brave librarian next door. The one who smells like old paper, ink, and a kind of magic he hasn’t tasted in centuries.
Now they’re tethered by a bond neither of them understands. The town is slipping into a dream-state, reality is fracturing, and Ivy and Dorian are the keys to either saving the world… or rewriting it entirely.
And every time she looks at him like she wants to risk everything, Dorian’s dragon gets a little harder to leash.
He was never supposed to fall for the girl who opens forbidden books.
But she already opened him.

Moira Marsh just wanted to digitize some dusty records, not get yeeted into a magical town with a possessed book, a bloodline full of secrets, and a grumpy panther shifter claiming she’s his fated mate.
Lucien Vale was supposed to be a mild-mannered bookstore owner. He’s also the town’s supernatural enforcer, emotionally repressed cat dad, and apparently the only thing keeping Moira’s runaway magic from cracking the fabric of reality.
Now the grimoire won’t shut up, ancient evil’s knocking at the veil, and Moira might be the only one who can stop it—if she doesn’t set something on fire first.
No pressure.

Katniss Greaves came to Hollow Oak chasing a missing girl — and walked straight into the arms of something ancient, angry, and breathtakingly alive.
The town wasn’t on any map. The mist watched her. And the man across the street? He didn’t smile. He growled.
Emmett Hollowell doesn’t like strangers. Doesn’t like questions. Doesn’t like the way the seer with the sharp tongue and haunted eyes makes his wolf pace like it remembers her.
He tells her to stay out of the woods. She doesn’t listen. Now the Veil has opened, the past is bleeding through, and the only thing more dangerous than what’s waking beneath Hollow Oak… is what’s waking inside them.
Because the girl he was sent to protect is his mate.
And the monster who broke him once wants her next.

She should’ve left me to die.
Instead, she dragged my half-conscious body into her den, stitched me up, and stared at me like I was still worth saving.
Now the only thing left of my soul belongs to her.
Ava Monroe doesn’t flinch. Not when I shift, not when I bleed, not when I growl her name in the dark like it’s a prayer I never earned. She’s human, stubborn, reckless—and the only creature in this war-torn borderland with the guts to fight beside a disgraced wolf like me.
I was supposed to die with Roman’s secrets buried in my chest.
Instead, I’m bleeding out truth at her feet.
But there’s a prophecy rising. Old packs rallying. And a child on the way who could either unite the fractured species… or burn this fragile peace to ash.
And if the Silent Sons or Gideon’s Torch touch a hair on her head?
I’ll show them exactly how savage the wronged become.
She didn’t just patch up a wolf.
She built a war machine with her bare hands.

In a town where shadows whisper and herbs scream, falling for the local bear shifter was probably Mara’s least chaotic choice.
Griff Cooper just wanted a quiet life in the woods with his magical daughter, a bottomless supply of coffee, and zero eldritch forest disturbances. Instead, he got a snarky herbal witch with flower crowns, a precocious six-year-old who talks to shadows, and a mysterious “pretty lady” trying to rewrite the town’s reality like it’s her personal soap opera.
Mara Voss thought Mistwhisper Falls would be a safe place to heal, not a hotspot for haunted lavender sachets, ancient bloodline conspiracies, and bear shifters with broody eyes and protective instincts dialed to eleven. But the moment she locks eyes with a growly single dad and his chaos-magic daughter? Yeah. She’s done for.
Between shadow puppets with opinions, sentient herbs, and a harvest festival that turns into a showdown for the fate of magical society, Griff and Mara are just trying to hold the line and keep the peace.
They’re strong enough to save the town.
Keeping it buttoned-up around each other? That’s the hard part.

She crash-landed in a cursed town with wild magic in her veins and a warlock’s claim on her soul.
Cora Thorne wasn’t looking for a fresh start —but the Veil took her anyway. Now she’s stuck in Hollow Oak, where the trees whisper secrets, the muffins glow at dawn, and the town’s lion-shifter ranger growls like she’s already his.
Callum Cross protects this place with claws and silence. He doesn’t trust Cora’s fae blood, her too-bright magic, or the way she hums under her breath like she belongs.
But the relic buried beneath the forest is waking. Her curse is tied to it. And the only thing more dangerous than what’s coming… is what’s sparking between them.

Selene Morwen was not a warrior. She wasn’t royalty. She was a diplomat’s daughter—clever, quiet, and expendable.
Which made her the perfect sacrifice.
To end a fragile war between humans and shifters, Selene is sent across the Veil as a political offering—bride to the monstrous Alpha of House Fenrir. A wolf prince feared across kingdoms. A man who kills more than he speaks.
Fenrik doesn’t want a mate. He wants loyalty. Power. Control. But when Selene steps into his cursed court with fire in her eyes and nothing left to lose, something ancient stirs beneath his skin.
She is not what he expected.
He is everything she was warned about.
And in a world of broken oaths and blood-drenched thrones, the only thing more dangerous than binding herself to a wolf… is falling in love with one.
He was never supposed to want her.
She was never supposed to survive him.
But fate doesn’t care who burns.

🐺🔥 Fame? Pfft. A Wolf’s Claim Is Forever!

She’s got a runaway hit, a controlling manager, and one very public meltdown. He’s a wolf shifter with pack drama, a private island, and zero interest in celebrities.
Chrissy Rivera didn’t plan to fake-ill her way out of a charity gala and disappear before sunrise—but when matchmaking icon Gerri Wilder offers an escape route via helicopter, she takes it. The destination? A no-press, no-schedule sanctuary that turns out to include a very large, very shirtless Alpha with opinions about everything—including her.
Zev Landon doesn’t do pop stars. Or unexpected guests. Or women who smell like jasmine and trouble. But the moment Chrissy steps onto Isle Luna, his wolf makes it clear: she’s not going anywhere.
Now the guitars are vintage, the mate bond is snapping, and the paparazzi are circling overhead.
Because when a wolf claims his mate, not even fame can break the bond.

She came for answers. He became the question she couldn’t stop asking.
Dr. Aerin Thorne wasn’t supposed to fall for anyone—especially not the lion shifter tasked with watching her every move. But as the tension in Mistwhisper Falls built to a breaking point, the truths buried beneath ancient runes weren’t the only ones rising to the surface.
Captain Leo Maddox had one job: keep the town safe. Preferably by keeping the infuriatingly brilliant fae academic at arm’s length. But her presence stirred more than his suspicion—she ignited memories that weren’t his, instincts that shouldn’t exist, and a mating bond that refused to be ignored.
When the magic that built the town begins to unravel and founder secrets surface with claws of their own, Aerin and Leo are thrust into a war centuries in the making—one that will demand impossible trust, devastating sacrifice, and a love strong enough to rewrite destiny itself.
Because some betrayals don’t break bonds. They forge them.

Sylvie Sage had one rule: never mix love with magic.
But when a love-warding candle misfires and binds her to Nicholas Whitmore—the town’s flirtiest tiger shifter—Sylvie finds herself stuck in a magical bond she never wanted… and can’t break.
He’s chaos in a leather jacket. She’s order in a maxi skirt. And the universe? Apparently determined to tangle their fates like an overgrown vine spell.
Sylvie is desperate to undo the connection before her magic combusts—or worse, before her heart starts to trust the one man she swore she’d never fall for.
But the bond won’t budge.
And the more time they spend together, the more the sparks start to feel suspiciously like something real.
Now all Sylvie has to do is keep her candles from exploding, her tiger shifter from looking too good in flannel, and her heart from making the same mistake twice.
Because the magic might not care what she wants…
But it absolutely knows who she needs.
