Four "delightfully twisted" scripted stories by Erin Mallon are now available as a bundle.

Professional book blogger Romy Cartelli may have cried werewolf once or twice. Hell, she’s even cried vampire, warlock, and dragon their fair share of times because, as every dedicated reader knows, one book boyfriend is never enough. And her followers love it...until they don’t. Sure, Romy is being stalked by a sexy werewolf, but she’s got bigger issues to deal with. Like the fact that he might be a murderer. Or worse yet, that she got drunk and told all of her followers that werewolves actually exist.

She can conquer the Fae - but at what cost? Allie had an army, allies, and a plan, but with all of those things slipping through here fingers she is being driven further and further toward a path she hadn't planned to take and a choice she didn't want to make. How selfless is Allie, really? Would she give her own life to save her people...and her new husband? Or will she have to carve out another way forward? And what might that way cost her?

Assignment Numero Dos for Lacey comes straight from the Godfather himself. When one of the Luzzi Family's low-ranking associates turns up dead, Carlos believes it may be the doing of the rival Russian mob, and he orders Lacey to find the killer. But every detail about the assignment is a little too neat, a little too tidy, and a little too good to be true. Could this really be an open and shut case, complete with a confession from the murderer?

The hunt is on. Allie Hunter has lost 10 years in the blink of an eye. But though the town she left has changed, some things - the worst things - remain exactly the same. As Allie battles conflicting loyalties, the censure of the town, and her own broken family, she begins to realize that she might be the only one standing in the way of a war between fae and mortals. Can she possibly craft a trap good enough to stop the coming fae army?

Think you could craft the perfect bargain? Allie Hunter thought all she had to do was make an exchange to buy back her father's life. She was wrong. Mortals are so often wrong about the Faewald. Usually, that kills them, or mires them in bargains that will suck their life out sip by sip. With Allie caught in a cage and the Fae she had once tormented her new captor, can she strike the right bargain to save everything she loves?

Someone knows what really happened.... On a cold December day, teenager Joy Enright is found drowned at the edge of a frozen pond. When an autopsy reveals she was strangled first, suspicion is thrown onto Martin, the young graduate who was last to see her alive. Someone who is prepared to keep their secret at any cost. In a small community, secrets are hard to keep, and as the web of lies around Joy's life and death unravels, the truth will either bring one family closer together or tear them further apart.

War is coming. The veil between the living and the dead no longer exists. Evil is running rampant and the universe's symmetry balances on my fingertips. No big deal. Of course, nobody knows how or when the hallows will strike, or who among us is a traitor.

Riley March and her friends are headed to ritzy, remote Palm Key Island for one last blow-out party weekend before college. It’s the vacation of a lifetime: beautiful beaches, epic nightlife, and hot guys like Riley’s crush—superstar soccer player Sebastian Ramos. There’s just one catch. Everyone on this trip is hiding something. Riley is hiding her past in order to fit in. Sebastian is hiding his feelings for Riley. And someone is hiding what really happened to Jordyn Chang, a classmate that mysteriously died last summer.

"Just friends" is all Brooke and Dylan have ever been. (Except for that one night in high school, but they don't talk about that.) Growing up, he was her protector. Her confidante. The one guy she could always trust.

Drake didn't expect to end up in hell - let alone as a slave fighting battles to amuse the rulers of the realm. Then the fateful day arrives when he discovers that his true love, Stella, is also there, wandering alone amid grave danger. He must escape his prison and find her, no matter what evils await him in the wilds of hell. But when he does find her, Drake realizes Stella is no longer the girl he once knew. Hell has hardened her, and she’s on the verge of losing her last shred of humanity. Can he save her from the monster she’s becoming before it's too late?

But she’ll get more than she bargained for when she comes face to face with her grandmother’s captor, who wants the Lightning for himself.

Nikolai Alexei Young was born with a special gift...one he'd do anything to lose. The heart and soul of every person he comes into contact with is an open book to his heightened senses. Colorful emotions, whispers of thoughts, the sour tastes of old memories.... He feels them all. The sci-fi books would call him an empath. For Nikolai, his ability has made him an exile. He roams the US alone, avoiding the glut of life in big cities, and using his innate talents to win money in underground poker games. Just enough to keep going, one town to the next.

Christmas is approaching, and Lena Markham finds herself penniless, friendless, and nearly hopeless.

Molly Frost is fed up.... Because Olivia was yelled at for wearing a tank top. Because Liza got dress coded and Molly didn't, even though they were wearing the exact same outfit. Because when Jessica was pulled over by the principal and missed a math quiz, her teacher gave her an F. Because it's impossible to find shorts that are longer than her fingertips. Because girls' bodies are not a distraction. Because middle school is hard enough.

Using her wits and somewhat questionable charm, Romy uses her time in captivity to learn her captors secrets. But the secrets she discovers still hold her captive. Can she find a way to save more than herself?

Isda does not exist. At least not beyond the opulent walls of the opera house. Cast into a well at birth for being one of the magical few who can manipulate memories when people sing, she was saved by Cyril, the opera house's owner. Since that day, he has given her sanctuary from the murderous world outside. All he asks in return is that she use her power to keep ticket sales high–and that she stay out of sight. For if anyone discovers she survived, Isda and Cyril would pay with their lives.
