Every week brings a fresh chapter—in life and in literature. This week we’re rolling out stories worth savoring, deals worth grabbing, and reasons worth smiling about. Let’s make it a great one together.
I have 3 amazing books launching this week, and the first is already here! That’s pretty sweet for a Monday!
This Week’s New Releases
Title: Blooded Bonds
Series: House of Gray Book 5
Release Date: 06/15/2026
Future Lady Grays should probably avoid interrogations at gunpoint.
Amy Davenport is getting better at vampire politics. She can smile through old-family insults, host a winter party without starting a scandal, and almost pretend the crown waiting for her does not make her want to hide in the nearest closet.
Then Cassius Winthrop ruins everything by returning.
Banished for blood magic and general menace, Cassius claims he knows secrets the High Council refuses to share. Amy should ignore him. Obviously. Except a friend vanishes from a Boston gala, a bloody symbol points straight to Cassius, and suddenly his “I can explain” sounds less annoying than no answers at all.
Now Amy has to follow a beautiful liar into the dark, rescue one of her own, and prove she can be Lady Gray before the title officially becomes hers.
Growing fangs was easier.
Grab Blooded Bonds and join Amy for the most inconvenient crisis of her undead life.
Title: Broken
Series: Hearts of Ember Book 5
Release Date: 06/18/2026
He came back from the void. She’s still waiting for all of him to catch fire again.
Serenya never stopped reaching for her husband—through eight months of dimensional static, through long governance nights spent ruling for two. When Kaelen finally crossed back from the void, she expected the worst to be over.
He came back translucent at the edges. His touch reaches her through something like glass. The piece of him left behind has become an echo ghost threading through PyreCrest’s empathic network, Stage by Stage, dissolving minds until the city fractures.
The only path to full restoration leads north: to the Forge, to the oldest covenant in the world, to the fire where Kaelen must release the ghost he carried back from the void—the part of him that refused to stop reaching for home.
Twelve years of marriage. Eight months of static. One ancient fire that promises to return him completely—if she can hold him together long enough to reach it.
Will the Forge restore the man who crossed dimensions for her—or finish what the void started?
Grab BROKEN and find out if love survives what the dark left behind.
Title: By Invitation Only
Series: Penelope Covens Mystery Book 2
Release Date: 06/19/2026
Penelope Covens has done something she hasn’t done in eighty years—unpacked.
Three months after the Ashworth case, she’s settled into Crimson Canyon Estates with blackout curtains, a standing seat at the pool bar, and a neighbor named Barbara who’s convinced she’s a witch. Salt lines on doorways. Crosses on the mailbox. An internet quiz that came back 100% positive. Penelope finds it hilarious. Barbara does not.
Then a family visit ends in a “heart attack” that wasn’t. Penelope does what she’s done for eighty years: lies to everyone and investigates. Something in his medicine cabinet doesn’t belong. Someone who doesn’t live here was in his casita before he died.
She’s circling three suspects: the wife everyone whispers about, the mistress with too much to lose, and the victim’s son in a leased BMW calling her “sweetie” with no idea what’s across the bar from him.
The worst part? Penelope might have caused this. Barbara is building a case that death follows her wherever she goes.
She might not be entirely wrong.
Will Penelope unmask the killer before Barbara unmasks her—or has she finally found the community she can’t outrun? Grab BY INVITATION ONLY and pull up a barstool.
