I don’t attract bad boys.
No, I attract bad men.
My relationship with the last one left me with no choice but to abandon everything I knew to escape his abuse, only for me to collide into someone just as dangerous, if not more so.
I'm in a new city where no one knows my name. All I’m looking for is a job, but when I go to an interview with the hopes of becoming a sales associate, I find myself in the midst of a jewelry heist that turns deadly.
I’m taken hostage by the masked robber, and though I manage to escape, my kidnapper evades the police. I try to move on, but I can’t shake off the feeling that I’m suddenly being watched everywhere I go. Even inside my own apartment.
And I can’t stop thinking about a certain pair of blue eyes behind the mask that now plagues my dreams. The police assure me that the man responsible for my abduction won’t be coming after me…
But what if he already is?

She’s mine now, whether she knows it or not.

About the book
Something wicked this way comes…and it might be too late to stop it.
Xander Corey lives simply, sustainably, on the outskirts of Osprey, a small, quaint town in Upstate New York. He’s a librarian when the town’s budget can afford him, a good friend, kind neighbor, and also, a witch. And while that’s of no concern to anyone around him, there are others, non-humans, who have a vested interest in Xander’s family land. Xander knows something dark and dangerous is brewing. He’s just not quite sure what.
And that’s not the only mystery he’s dealing with. The new chief of police is, by turns, giving him heart palpitations and homicidal thoughts. Xander can’t decide if the gorgeous yet infuriating Lorne MacBain is on his side, or trying to drive him insane. Added to that, the man doesn’t believe in magic, and since that’s who Xander is, their future looks anything but bright.
But Lorne is not the unimaginative, stick-in-the-mud Xander thinks he is. And a rock to anchor him as his life is turning upside down is just the thing Xander needs. Now if only the two of them can stay alive…
