Liam wasn’t supposed to be my happily ever after.
He wasn’t even on my radar.
He was my husband’s best friend—forbidden.
But my husband is dead and I’m alone. I ache for him and I reach for Liam.
One night with Liam changed everything. Now I have to decide if I truly love him or if he’s just the consolation prize.

Excerpt


Today is the last day I will allow myself to feel sorrow, the last day I will shed tears, because tears don’t change anything. I need to harvest whatever strength I have and hold it tight. I’m a mother who has an infant that needs me to be both mom and dad.
One day, they say. One day this will stop hurting.
Lies.
This will never be okay or stop hurting.
I’ll never be the same. The woman I was before died the minute the knock on the door came. I’m a shell of the woman I was. The woman who was loving, open, and full of hope is gone. Hope is a weak bitch who couldn’t give two fucks about what you want. So I rely on faith. Faith that I’ll make it through this and find my heart again.

I fell in love with Liam only to be left shattered into a million pieces. Again. The idea of being without him cripples me but the reality is, he’s gone.
He doesn’t understand and I can’t make him.
If only he’d see the conviction behind my words—then Liam would still be here.

The Darkest Night: Part One 
~ SYNOPSIS ~
Owner and operator of Bits and Pieces, and resident expert on charms and glamours, Elsa Karr is a witch with a sour frown and a list of things to do as long as Thor’s hammer. Top of the list is saving her father's shop from ruin. If she isn't trying to claw her way out of debt, she's arguing with her cat, Fenris, or shoveling carts of cake into her gob. She's not interested in romance or the vampire who rents the flat above her shop. All she wants is a little peace and chocolate--fine, all right! All right! The vampire is kind of screw all cute. (Curse him.)

The disgraced son and heir of the Wingates House vampire clan and a mad-man to boot, Marshall Ansley spends most of his time working and dodging his mother's phone calls. Marshall is beyond family. He's beyond everyone, actually. Don’t be daft, he especially doesn't do…Christmas. But behold, the plague brings an original flavor of annoyance this year when his boss tasks him with acquiring the account of a recluse fey and her upcoming Gothic clothing boutique, Sinister Stitches. That is the ONLY reason he's bothering with his shrewish landlord. No, that's it. No…really. Fine, if you insist, the witch might be a tad bit...all right, she's adorable. (Damn her.)

Scrooge meets Scrooge. Dominant meets Dominant. Tempers…spark. In each other, they may unfold a tale that only comes to pass on the darkest of nights.

It's the only way to end the spell she has over him. This little angel is going to learn what it is to hold hands with the Devil. She's going to learn her place. Or so help him, he'll mount her on crucifix and cast her overboard the Palatine Lite. Drown her. Murder her. Over and over again. Deal be damned.

Little does our vampire prince charming know, New Gotham's Anti-Cinderella is no one's prey. Let the darkest night begin...

Bits and Pieces must be saved, Sinister Stitches must be signed--there is grand Christmas ball to survive. (Oh, what an ordeal.) Meanwhile, trouble is sailing toward them... Someone is coming... Someone bad... It could be a vampire. It might be a witch. Only time and the stroke of midnight will tell.

~ PURCHASE ~


~ EXCERPT ~

“Vampire.” Her arm was sunk into her carpet bag. Moonlight beating down on her shoulders, casting her face in shadows, save for the glow of her lush green eyes. She brandished a wooden paddle from the depths of her bag. It was long like it could’ve belonged to a canoe. Bird feathers, beads and teeth swung from the leather twined around the sleek handle. Deep cherry red stained wood, the flat was smooth, a couple inches thick and wide with decorative ribbing carved into the edges. “If you have seen my desires, then you have seen Mjölnir. So named after Thor’s hammer.”

As if coming to life at her words, twilight touched the wood, calligraphic swirls of Unseelie language glowed green. They thrummed as she wheeled the instrument around like a staff, expertly passing the windmill from one hand to another. “Are you able to kneel and take your punishment without being shackled?”

~ ABOUT THE AUTHOR ~
SOPHIE AVETT

Sophie Avett is kind of a nerd. Like not even one of the cute, hip ones everyone brags about nowadays. More like the socially awkward hippie who eats way too much bread and dreams about being a dragon from behind towers of mythology books. Um...yeah. Picture old, tattered paperbacks and comic books--mostly Batman and Wonder Woman--dwarfing a tiny desk, with just barely enough room for the troll who writes there and the 70 pound hell-hound that insists on laying its wet nose on top of her bare foot. 

Granted not the most exciting existence, but she tries to make up for it by writing romances populated with her own peculiar ilk of paranormal beasties. Trolls, wyverns, the obscure Nordic brownie--she likes to keep things interesting. And bloody. (And mostly naked--but, we'll keep that bit between us.)

Sophie Avett loves to hear from her readers. (Hi, mom.) So if there's something on your mind, feel free to leave a message after the scream. 

(Mom, you can just call me. Seriously.)

Excerpt

The room is dark with only the moonlight streaming in through the window to guide me. I move to the far wall that connects my stepsister’s room to mine and lean against it. It’s cool against my ear and I can hear movement in the next room. It’s beyond fucked up, but I need to listen. I have to know if she’s touching herself. I hate how weak this makes me, but she’s more important right now. In my mind she’s got those milky thighs spread wide and her little fingers are teasing down her stomach towards her pussy. I rub my hands over the front of my pants and press on my growing erection. I close my eyes tightly and will myself to pull away from the wall, but I can’t. I keep rubbing my hand up and down, trying to find relief in that simple touch. I stop abruptly when I hear some shuffling. Then – sweet heaven – I hear a soft moan. Fuck it. Immediately I undo my belt and open my pants. I don’t give a damn how pathetic this is, it’s the only thing I’ve got. I press my ear harder to the wall and envision her digits tickling her clit. My right hand runs down the length of my dick while my left cups my balls I’m so goddamn wound up from thinking of fucking little Sarah I can’t stand it. I can hear quiet sounds coming from her room and I stroke myself harder. I can hear her moaning and moving on the bed. It’s painful how turned on I am. I thrust my hips forward on the down strokes and tighten my hand on my balls. I want this to hurt. I want to punish myself and my dick for my dirty thoughts of fucking my baby sister. I want to remind my body that all the nasty things I want to do to her are wrong. But the more pain I inflict on myself, the hotter it makes me. The more I try not to think of the nasty things I want to do to her, the more irresistible they become. The more I think about shoving my dick down her sweet throat, the more pre-cum leaks. The more I think about squeezing that throat while I thrust into her cunt, the more my spine tingles, and I can feel my release coming. My forehead is sweaty and I absently realize that I’m still fully dressed with my dick in my hands and my ear to her wall. Fuck, how pathetic do I look right now? Her moans are becoming louder and more urgent, and I know she must be ready. I speed up because in my mind I’m coming with her. In her. I imagine one hand is on her breast, plucking at her nipple. I can picture her other hand between her legs, her fingers working faster and faster. I can almost smell the juices from her pussy dripping down between her ass cheeks and wetting the bed. I would give anything to lick it up and not waste a single drop. The pressure peaks and releases, and I come in a thick stream that runs over my cock and my hand. I use it as lube to work every last bit of my orgasm out of me. I hear Sarah let out a shout on the other side of the wall, causing more cum to leak out of my cock. I look down to see my hands covered in cum. I’m sweaty, sticky, and still horny as fuck.

Excerpt

   “Yo!” she yells, bringing me out of my own thoughts. “Sorry, just thinking.” I give her a little smile. “So tell me everything about this arrangement with Matt.” Her head falls back on the couch and I can see her trying not to smile like an idiot which makes me think she likes him more than she is telling me. “It’s nothing that exciting. After Alex took you home we went down to the pool hall and just hung out, drank some more and talked. They are both pretty cool.” She pauses, knowing I know there’s more to it than that. “Ben found a couple of blondes after a couple games of pool and they all left. Matt and I stayed, we both figured out we didn’t want a serious relationship right now and were just looking for fun.” I roll my eyes because that never works. But, she is going to do what she wants. “You know this is a disaster waiting to happen, right?” She waves her hand at me, dismissing my comment. “Anyways... we decided that if we were lonely at night we would text the other and see if we are free. Why not? We are both single, he is pure sex walking and his dick...” “LANE!” I scold her and look to Corbin. “Oh, I didn’t say it loud enough for him to hear. Fine. His penis is...” She holds her hands out and mouths, “Huge“! I just giggle and shake my head. I’m already fighting with my libido with Alex, I don’t want to talk about huge dicks when I’m not getting any. I know, I know it’s my choice. Being a responsible adult is for the birds sometimes. “When are you going to give Alex a real date?” She points her stare at me. “Ugh!” I groan. “What, Em? You like him. He likes you! He talks to you every day!!” she is saying it like I am a complete idiot and am not present when he texts or calls. “I know, but I need to take it slow. You know how I feel,” I whine to her. “I know and I think it’s great and you should be careful and take it slow. I’m not saying sleep with him! I’m just saying throw him a bone and go to dinner or something!” She huffs out. “Why are you so much on his side?” I ask with a small smile. “Because Em, you like him, like him. First guy in the two years I’ve known you to ever catch your attention. And plus, you and Corbin deserve a happily ever after.” I smile at her and then change the subject.

Successful, not-so-great-with-the-ladies, and all around nice guy Barry Furnukle can’t believe his luck when Amber Lewis agrees to date him. But when his attempt to woo her with the world’s most “awesome” date (birding and fro-yo) lands him in the friend zone, he wonders if a guy like him ever had a chance. On advice from his ladies’ man brother, Barry returns to his acting roots for a little confidence rehab. Suddenly he’s got more female attention than he knows what to do with. But will his new found popularity make him happy? Or will he finally release his inner stud to win the woman he can’t forget?

Excerpt:

“You want a list of reasons why I want to be with you?” Bare asked.
That was ridiculous. Insane. She was not that needy.
“Sure,” she said.
“Do you have a list of reasons why you want to be with me?” he asked.
“No, not right now, but I could make one.”
“Okay, I’ll make a list and you make a list, and then we’ll compare.”
“That sounds like the rational, brainy thing to do,” she said, biting back a smile.
“Mine will have a few equations.”
“Mine will be illustrated.”
“I look forward to it.”
“As do I.”
They took one look at each other and cracked up.
Amber changed the subject, embarrassed she’d ever brought up such a ridiculous topic. She wasn’t in competition with her sister. She didn’t need Bare to tell her why she was special. She asked him about working with Delilah, the older actress who played Ruth. Lately Delilah had spent a lot of time bitching and moaning to Amber backstage about some of the younger actresses.
Bare, being Bare, had no complaints. He seemed to always see the good in people. Seeing her stepmother again, hearing the three of them talk, had put her back in that awful place where she was the outsider. That stuff shouldn’t matter now. She lived on her own, supported herself. She was living the life she was meant to be living.
Bare parked the car at the high school and turned to her. “Look, I could write down equations for you. Compose a few equivalencies to prove the sum of us together is greater than the sum of our parts, but you and I both know the shortest distance between two points is a straight line.”
She did. But what did that mean exactly?
He cradled her face with one hand, and she waited for the kiss, the physical expression of why he wanted to be with her. It was why all men wanted her—her looks, her body. She closed her eyes.
His voice came out in a husky growl. “The short answer is I’m falling for you, not Kate.”
Her eyes flew open. She met his warm brown eyes and saw love shining back at her. She blinked away stinging hot tears, couldn’t even speak past the lump in her throat. She nodded.
“Now you know,” he said softly. His thumb brushed her cheek where a tear had leaked out. “I’d ask what you’d put in an illustration, but I’m afraid to know.”
She found her voice again. “Your big heart.”
He smiled. “My mother always says I’m a gem.”
“You are.”
His thumb stroked down her cheek. “I can’t wait to make you mine.”
“You already have,” she choked out.

He kissed her then, a tender kiss that she fell into slowly, inevitably, where she belonged.
