Cynthia Eden:

Different world building! Just a nice mix of paranormal books with a bit of romantic suspense thrown in.

• Bound by Blood Book One of Bound Series
• The Wolf Within Book One of Purgatory Series
• Bite the Dust Book One of Blood and Moonlight Series
• The Devil in Disguise Book One of Bad Things Series
• Protecting Piper Book One of Wilde Ways Series

Nalini Singh:

This is one of those authors that you find and are so happy that you did! The stories continue into each other so reading in order is recommended.

• Slave to Sensation Book One of Psy-Changeling Series
• Silver Silence Book One of the continuation series Psy-Changeling Trinity

Ilona Andrews:

I don't normally enjoy books that have the same character throughout; but Andrews changed my mind!

• Burn for Me Book One of Hidden Legacy Series
• Clean Sweep Book One of Innkeeper Series
• Magic Bites Book One of Kate Daniels Series (most of them read)
• Silent Blade Book One of Kinsmen Series
• On the Edge Book One of Edge Series

Shelly Laurenston:

Seana Kelly:

This was a chance find that just hooked me in; ongoing! Book 4 just came out.

• The Slaughtered Lamb Bookstore and Bar Book One of Sam Quinn Series

• Bewicched, I can't begin to tell you how many times I reread this book when it came out. And now I am impatiently waiting for book 3.

M.J. Haag:

This was a shocker from the first book. At the height of Covid lockdown, these books sucked me in and made being shut inside fun. You can never go wrong with fae, zombies and finding love.

• Demon Ember Book One of Resurrection Chronicles

Sandy Williams:

Another rare find, took me into a world of space travel and strength.

• Shades of Treason Book One of Anomaly Series *One Hit Wonder, I haven't found any other books I enjoy by her.

Shannon Mayer:

I have seen a lot of these going around now; but getting older myself for some reason had me all in for trying it out and I am very glad that I did! Were Bigfoots, Witches, Fae, Incubus - I mean really with so much thrown in how could things not go wrong?

• Midlife Bounty Hunter Book One of Forty Proof Series *Never finished the series, it all started to run together and made you wonder how one person could have so much bad luck.

New Additions:

These have shocked me because they're Young Adult, Fantasy, Paranormal, Romance. It's 100% about the world building and if lucky the finding love.

Brogan Thomas:

• Cursed Demon - Where I started the Addiction!
• Cursed Vampire (Splits off into two other books).
• Cursed Fae
• Cursed Dragon
• Cursed Witch
• Coming Soon: Bitten Shifter (New Series)

K.M. Shea: (3 books sets)

• Gate of Myth and Power *Favorite
• Hall of Blood and Mercy
• Court of Midnight and Deception - I liked it starting off, but slowly lost interest in this one.
• Pack of Dawn and Destiny * Runner Up

New:

Heather G. Harris:

I have been reading a bit of her stuff for years but some just hit harder.

• The Other Witch - 4 book series: there is a lot going on in this and the end is just fun, if not a little anti-climatic.
• The Other Realm - - Series. I rated these really high, but then must have lost track of them? I have 3 books to read still in the series and don't know if I could handle going back and rereading them all to catch back up.
• The Other Wolf - Series
• TBD The Other Detective

Catharina Maura

• The Windsors Series
• Off-Limits Series
