Marie Xiao lives a double life, moonlighting as a freelance consultant in corporate Seattle even as she dedicates herself—and her powers as a witch—to chasing down objects of myth and magic before they can be used to harm humankind. She carefully guards the bridges between worlds and has never once been tempted to stray.Until she catches the eye of a pair-bonded kitsune and gumiho and her whole world is thrown into chaos.Japanese and Korean fox spirits Yamamoto Kuro and Joseph Choe have been hoping to cross paths with Marie since their first chance meeting at an artifact retrieval gone decidedly wrong. They may work for Marie's enemy, but they don't see any reason why they can't mingle a little work and play…especially when a (literal) dead man waltzes into their impromptu reunion, raising intriguing questions about a deeper magic that may be afoot. Temporarily teaming up, the trio investigate the unusual unrest…but as loyalties begin to shift and lines blur, Kuro, Joe, and Marie may find themselves at the precipice of something none of them are prepared to face…or deny.MYTHWOVEN:Wings Once Cursed & BoundFangs So Bright & Deadly
Fangs with a Heart (Chain of Fate #2)
by Tempeste O'RileyLynx shifter Trace Wilson’s fun-loving exterior hides a heart scarred by severe domestic violence—a heart that might not ever trust another male, fated mate or not. When Trace moves to Seattle to take his place as trainer and council representative to the Glacier Rim Tribe, he discovers his mate is the vampire prince Sasha Tolstoi, leader of the Konstantin Coven. It’s not something Trace is ready to accept. Not now, maybe not ever. But if there’s one thing Sasha knows how to do, it’s how to be patient, especially when his fated heart is also his perfect sub. <p><p> When an outside force threatens the fragile bond slowly forming between them—and nearly kills Trace—Trace’s instincts shift into high gear. Sasha is powerful, and that means he has enemies, among them several rival covens and an uncle determined to force Sasha into a marriage with a vampire princess. But why involve the lynx Trace in their maneuvering? Finding the culprit won’t be easy, and it will mean building trust—a slow and difficult prospect for someone who’s suffered as much as Trace. Finding a way to move beyond the past, and to love, before those out to finish Sasha can destroy either, is a race the two fated hearts have to win.

Fantasies of Robert A. Heinlein
by Robert A. HeinleinRobert A. Heinlein, the dean of American SF writers, also wrote fantasy fiction throughout his long career, but especially in the early 1940s. The Golden Age of SF was also a time of revolution in fantasy fiction, and Heinlein was at the forefront. His fantasies were convincingly set in the real world, particularly those published in the famous magazine Unknown Worlds, including such stories as "Magic, Inc.," "'They--,'" and "The Unpleasant Profession of Jonathan Hoag." Now all of Heinlein's best fantasy short stories, most of them long novellas, have been collected in one big volume for the first time.

by Claire Voet Myrna Valeria Sánchez CruzUna historia de amor y traición se entrelaza irremediablemente con el pasado y el presente. Una misteriosa niebla rodea el castillo. Sus dedos helados se curvan y persisten entre cada muro de piedra. En el pueblo, los lugareños están inquietos mientras se lanzan y dan vuelta en su sueño. El clip-clop de los cascos del caballo se puede oír en los adoquines, y gritos de hombres borrachos en la distancia. Un hombre misterioso con su perro está de vuelta, pero ¿quién es? El pueblo del Castillo de Corfe alberga un secreto oscuro que se remonta al siglo XVII, de cuando Lady Bankes luchó por proteger el castillo y cuando Anthony Dickinson, un buscador de brujas, tortura decenas de mujeres desprotegidas en todo Dorset. Dibujado a una foto de la Cabaña Bluebell en una ventana de bienes raíces, Greg tiene un inusual, anhelo de renunciar a su vida en Londres, después de su ruptura matrimonial reciente, desea vivir en esa casa de campo. Parece que Greg no es el único recién llegado a la aldea, como Helen, que recientemente ha dejado Bournemouth después de romper con su novio, se mueve a Lilly, una antigua casa del siglo XVII, no lejos de Bluebell. Ella también es atraída hacia el pasado con extraños sueños y experiencias paranormales. Se hace evidente que trescientos sesenta y siete años después, una historia de amor y traición se entrelaza irremediablemente con el pasado y el presente.
