💛 Thank you to all you fabulous, pet-loving readers who sent me pics and stories of your floofs in response to last weeks newsletter, and who also refuse to read anyone who gratuitously offs animals in their stories.💛
That’s about it for this weeks news, other than receiving yet more Shadow editing notes. Oh, and adding to the summer bingo challenge. I finished Wolf vs The Monster, because Lauretta Hignett is an auto-buy, and I Can’t Even, a second-chance beachy romance that fits the Summer vibe.
Clearly, I’m not understanding the BINGO portion of the assignment, tho.
*Don’t forget SBTB is also offering reader prizes to go along with the card, if you needed more incentive to add to your TBR pile.*
REGION TWO UPDATE: Unfortunately Shadow Agent has been delayed until later this year. So, don’t panic if you receive a pre-order cancelation notice from Amazon. When it releases, it will be at .99 THE FIRST WEEK, as a thank you for your patience.
When Alys decided to punish a corrupt man in order to keep the pact between the spirits and her people in place, she knew there would be consequences.
Unfortunately, there were still more troublesome spirits afoot and even more powerful enemies. Secrets and lies swirled together making it impossible to figure out the truth.
But these enemies were dangerous. If she couldn’t determine where all the clues she was following led before it was too late, more innocent people would lose their lives.
Maybe even her own.
Could Alys and her powerful lover, Walker, work together to find the truth, or are some things beyond even their abilities?

Some pasts do more than just haunt you. Some pasts can kill.
Solomon Ivy owns a bloody track record of killing monsters. He’s the most ruthless stone-cold killer you’ll ever meet. With magic in one hand, a gun in the other, there hasn’t been a beast he’s failed to take down. The only thing better than burying evil is seeing the look in its eyes when you’re shoveling dirt on its face. The one rule that keeps a hunter alive is to keep moving forward and never look back. But when Ivy's past finally catches up to him, he has unfinished business to take care of. A promise to honor. And a monster to kill.
An angel, a demon, and a vampire walk into a bar. Sounds like the beginning of a bad joke, but it's just another day in the life of Kyle McKinley.

She and her vampire and demon teammates provide supernatural damage control when humans see too much. Today’s problem? A sword-wielding angel and a demon had a supernatural smackdown during happy hour in a Cleveland bar, leaving behind a headless vampire and a dozen human witnesses.
This latest supernatural slipup is attracting all kinds of attention. So much attention that the police step in, and Kyle has to deal with Joe Dalton, a know-it-all human with the sexiest turquoise eyes she’s ever seen. Kyle doesn’t dare open her battered heart to him, but as the case escalates, they must join forces to solve a dangerous puzzle. And when they uncover the truth, the apocalyptic ripple effect forces Kyle to make a choice. Learn to trust again, or risk losing everyone she cares about, including Dalton.

As the half-demon son of the Lord of the Abyss, few hold power over Dante. For the first time, someone from his past is ready to exploit him, his power, and connections. What do they want and what will they pay?
While Jean-Michel and Gabriel try to overcome their haunted pasts to understand who they are to one another, they find themselves thwarted at every turn. Someone doesn't want them to free the dragons from Crimson's blacklist.
Will they unravel the web of deception in time to protect everyone they care about? Or will they fall victim to the machinations that threaten to destroy them all?
Society may forbid their love, but it won't stop them from chasing after their feelings for one another.
Despite being a demon, Megan cannot use her powers to read souls. This has caused her to believe there is something wrong with her. As a result, she has always hidden her true feelings for her best friend, Marcus.
Marcus's fae powers allow him to sense that Megan loves him just as deeply as he loves her. However, he is unable to express his love because he fears that Megan's demonic abilities will detect any malice in his soul. Additionally, the strict beliefs of his father, who is now the newly crowned Fae King, forbid their love due to the animosity between demons and Fae.
When a wave of murders targeting demons occurs on the night of his father's coronation, Marcus realizes his father's true intentions. He quickly flees from his home to seek out Megan and warn her about the danger. But upon arriving at her house, he discovers that she and her family are nowhere to be found.
As Marcus pursues Megan and she discovers the long-held secret her family has kept from her, it is no longer certain whether their love will be strong enough to endure.
Alex Fossor feels like he’s finally getting his life together. Then he’s framed for murder and the Rimbault Society—mages who secretly run the world—drag him before North America’s Archmage.
The only thing that stalls Alex’s execution is the same evidence that could damn him, when the victim’s body walks out of the morgue and disappears.
Reviled for his death magic, Alex knows he’ll have to prove his own innocence. But the mundane, the magical, the living and the dead are on his case. A beautiful stranger knows who the real culprit could be, but can Alex trust her to have his back? With time running out, Alex discovers a sinister plot to use arcane drugs to harvest the city's addicts. He’ll have to embrace everything that makes him a monster in the eyes of the law, before a hex on his heart burns him to ash.
