Now, Ava is on a quest to rediscover herself—and men. Her soul-searching finds her living on a succession of friends’ and family’s couches, which happen to be in some of the most luxurious zip codes in and around Los Angeles. What follows is an unpredictable summer full of shamans, attack birds, awkward dates, sizzling flirtations, and unsolicited advice—especially from her traditional Persian family members, who are eager to see her remarried. With every laugh-out-loud adventure in each locale, Ava finds more solace and wisdom. And while it’s not how she planned to spend the last year of her thirties, Ava learns that there is power in letting go.

I should fear him, and part of me still wants to resist, but in his presence, I find the warmth and care I thought I lost forever. Despite everything, Karshok might be the salvation I never thought I’d find. But what will that salvation cost me?

Failure isn’t in Fawn’s blood. When her path is challenged, she charges harder, chasing a destiny that could lift her higher than ever... or destroy her completely. The Highland moors throw storms, curses, and merciless rivals in her way, but none compare to the Viking King of the Dragons. Dangerous. Devastating. Irresistible.

He needs Nora's help to uncover the truth but what they discover is far more complicated. His past holds secrets and conceals lies—ones he's better off not remembering.

He's going to disappear from this world forever, and she's going to be left to pick up the pieces of a broken heart.

When fantasy crashes into her everyday world, Kara must decide what’s real—and what’s worth everything.

No one knows what I am, what my true nature is, and I must do everything in my power to hide it. To conceal it. To keep it from them. Only my secret gets exposed, and the entire world discovers what I am. And now I am caught up in a battle of wills between a sadistic warlord and a king, who might, if I dare to hope, just be my salvation.
