When a feline fatale meets his magical match, Baltimore might just go up in flames.
I, Carter Strike, Siamese shifter extraordinaire and a powerful demon’s right-hand cat . . .er, man, have a job to do. My boss’ boy toy is in the crosshairs of an unknown assassin. And when my boss is unhappy, all of Charm City burns.
That’s where I come in. Intel is my specialty and leads me to the doorstep of one drop-dead gorgeous but annoyingly secretive Rakshasa.
Bengal Damon-Cowles—even his name is obnoxious—runs South-West Baltimore and is nothing if not frustratingly contrary. I don’t care if he is a demi-god among shifters, I don’t need the complications from a sexy as sin Rakshasa with the utter gall to turn down a fine piece of feline-fantasy like myself. Especially when we’re forced to work together. Except, every day we spend in close proximity turns up the heat between us.
A roomful of secrets, a looming Nor’Easter, and friends with questionable—or nonexistent—morals, add gasoline to the blaze. As the stakes climb ever higher, and people start dying, I’ve got a cat’s chance in hell of coming out of this one unscorched.
Cat’s Chance in Hell is a 113k snarktastic, size difference, forced proximity, enemies-to-lovers, car-careening-out-of-control romance with a guaranteed happy ending and lots of steam. Shenanigans include: a catnapping gone very, very wrong, a hot pot incident that will go down in infamy, and a Rakshasa with more layers than a Smith Island Cake.
*Can be absolutely be enjoyed as a standalone, but would be more enjoyable read in order.

I've recovered Demon for the Win. I'm so happy with Darcy Stark's narration and hope you all enjoy it as much as I have! Just a reminder that this was the 40K novella I had in the Your Book Boyfriend's Boyfriend Prolific Works Giveaway, and I've added NO new material.
Blurb:
Dryad Tuli Cato has 3 rules he lives by: No relationships, no drama, no trouble.
When a gorgeous incubus offers a night of no-strings passion, Tuli readily agrees. Only that no-strings night sure feels like a lot more.
Okay, Tuli has 2 rules he lives by: No drama, no trouble.
Being the sous chef at the most exclusive restaurant in town makes no drama a challenge. Especially when the kitchen’s in an uproar after a staff member turns up dead. Murdered.
Um, Tuli has 1 rule he lives by: No trouble.
Surely, he can stick to this 1 simple rule. . . except it turns out, he might be the murderer’s next target.
Incubus Kem Balthasar has only 1 rule he lives by: Enjoy life.
It’s a lust demon’s nature, after all. Creatures either want to be him or do him. Or maybe a bit of both.
When Kem lays eyes on a slender dryad hottie across a crowded sex club, suddenly he’s thinking of another L-word and it’s not one he ever thought he’d feel.
Okay, Kem has 2 rules he lives by: Enjoy life, romance Tuli.
Convincing the skeptical dryad that Kem’s a worthy—and faithful—partner is hard enough. But it’s even harder to date a guy who might wind up dead.
Right. Kem has 3 rules he lives by: Enjoy life, romance Tuli, and keep the little dryad safe.
Easy, right?
Demon for the Win is a 40k just-one-night, fated mates, novella set in the Much Ado about Demons world. Each book stands alone. This book contains explicit scenes, a little black book with loads of secrets, jealous trees, sex club shenanigans, and a guaranteed happily-ever-after.
Unfortunately, I had to push this book back on my schedule a bit. Life happens. It killed me to do it, but it will be a better story for it. There's nothing worse than rushing a book and having it not satisfy readers. I'm putting it on my 2023 list and we'll see from there.
This story will take us back to the Much Ado About Demons world -- Nico, Flame, and all their friends. This is the story of Sir Raaf and Azrael the incubus. It's a redemption story of a sort and I'm hoping to have it out in the not-too-distant future . . . we'll see what my flighty muse has to say after the New Year.
I don't have a blurb or final cover for it yet, though I'm excited to work on the cover since Alex Corza has been doing amazing covers for me and this one will be no different!
For those of you who are active on Facebook: I've opened my reader group: Maslow's Mischief, Magic, and Murder. I'd love to have you there! We'll be talking books, I'll post snippets, and have giveaways. I aim to make this space one huge blanket fort where we can all go to get away from the outside world.
The Amazing Sarah Jo Chreene did a portrait of Twig and Quinn! I absolutely love it! Expect to see this image show up on swag and possibly merch in the near future.
