The witch Ellie, the vampire Julian, the werewolf Ethan, the ghost Petyr, and the angel Malachi are back and there’s more happening in the little town once known as Havenmoor than teenage romance. Dark forces are at work, and Damien Croft, a man with unbelievable grief, is slowly being twisted into a monster. What can the kids do when faced with an unspeakable evil? Can they come together to protect themselves, their town, and maybe the world?1.

Can Ethan survive the coming darkness? Can he protect Torri from the evil that approaches? Can he protect her from himself?2. KILL MIA COOPER (A Paranormal Romance Short Story)Something must have happened because all that Mia and Petyr did to give him the opportunity to cross over has failed, but after three months with her boyfriend back, Mia is overjoyed to have him. Of course, it would be nice if her ghost boyfriend could actually go to the dance with her, but she’s satisfied just to have him back, even if it’s not in the flesh. Dark things are moving in the world, though, and one of those dark things has a single mission: kill Mia Cooper. Can Petyr prevent it? Can they figure out what to do together?3. VISIONS OF CASSI (A Vampire Romance Story Short Story)It isn’t easy to have a vampire as a boyfriend, and it can be especially hard when he can’t control himself and drinks enough of your blood to make you weak. That’s not the worst of it for Cassi though. Right in the middle of drinking (at a time that’s supposed to be really special and intimate) Julian has a vision of another girl! What does she have that Cassi doesn’t? Is she going to lose her vampire boyfriend to someone else? Also, why are there so many spooky things happening in town? If she doesn’t have Julian to stand by her side, will she ever be able to make it on her own?4.

He doesn’t want to hurt her, but really…How can a full human and a half angel ever hope to find love anyway?5. ELLIE AND THE WIND (A Paranormal Romance Short Story)Ellie the witch and Julian the vampire meet to confront Ethan and get him to join them against whatever it is that seems to be threatening the town.

When you hear the word hunters, what do you think of? Most people will think of your average, run-of-the-mill hunters. You know, the ones who hunt deer and stuff? Well, not my family. We hunt supernatural creatures. That’s right, mermaids, werewolves, vampires, you name it, we kill it. But, we only kill the ones that kill people. "Nous protégeons ceux qui ne peuvent se protéger." Translation: "We protect those who cannot protect themselves." It’s the family motto. Or, so I thought. Turns out, my ancestors, including my parents, are supernatural serial killers. Yup, the French phrase you just read? Not even the family motto. Apparently, it’s “We hunt those who hunt us.” Translation: We hunt and kill innocent supernaturals, including the defenseless ones. And get this: my parents want me to join the “family business.” Not gonna happen. I need a plan to get out of this. Fast. How to do it? Easy. Date a supernatural creature. That’s when Darcy comes into the picture. Darcy is a demon trying to get out of his father’s wishes. In order for him to do that, he has to date a hunter. When our two paths cross, we both agree to help each other. But there's more to it than I had planned...
