House of Straw
Cressida is an assassin. A predator. The wolf whispered about in the dark.
Her latest targets are three noblemen secluded in a manor at the edge of Thresher’s End. Killing them should be simple. Ellis practically begs for her blade. Evander seems just as eager to hurt her as he is to have her. And Ezran looks at her with a tenderness she doesn’t understand.
Because Cressida has killed these men before.
Again. And again.
Trapped in an endless, frozen night, Cressida awakens with the same purpose: hunt the three men and bring their house down. But fragments of another life are beginning to bleed through. Sunlight, stolen kisses, a woman with golden hair, and three men she could have sworn she once loved.
The deeper Cressida digs into her missing memories, the more horrifying the truth becomes. She wasn't cursed because she killed them. She chose the curse to keep them alive.
Now, after years of blood, death, pleasure, and sorrow, Cressida must remember why she condemned them all to this nightmare and find a way to break it before the endless night finally breaks her.
Dread and Gingerbread
Welcome to Gumdrop Glen, where Christmas is sweet, the ovens are warm, and some men are willing to do anythingto protect the woman they love.
Cane is the town baker, famous for his gingerbread cookies and his cheerful smile. Every holiday season, the people of Gumdrop Glen line up for a taste of his treats, never suspecting that beneath his jolly exterior lies something far darker.
Marzipan has finally come home.
After years away, she returns to the town she fled, hoping for a fresh start and a quiet Christmas. What she doesn’t expect is Cane, her childhood best friend, still waiting, still watching, still willing to protect her at any cost.
When men who threaten Marzipan begin to disappear, Gumdrop Glen barely notices. After all, not everyone deserves a happily ever after.
As old feelings rekindle and buried truths come to light, Marzipan must decide if she’s willing to accept the man Cane has become, and the lengths he’ll go to keep her safe.
Because in Gumdrop Glen, love is loyal, justice is personal, and some monsters wear chef’s coats.
