Fall under the intoxicating spell of their hex appeal…In the magical world that lies hidden beneath our own, witches and conjurers play deadly games. They know just the right spell to kill a man with one kiss—or raise him back again. And they’re not afraid to exact sweet revenge on those who dare to cross them.

But even though she possesses rare magical healing abilities, her life has brought her nothing but pain.

Auf den ersten Blick scheint Dina Demille eine ganze normale Frau zu sein. Die Inhaberin eines malerischen viktorianischen Gasthauses in einer Kleinstadt in Texas besitzt einen Shih-Tzu namens Beast und ist die perfekte Nachbarin. Aber Dina ist ... anders: Ihr Besen ist eine tödliche Waffe und ihr Gasthof, der als Unterkunft für außerirdische Besucher konzipiert ist, ist magisch und kann denken.

Dina Demilles eigenwillige Pension kann zwar Magisches vollbringen, aber sie könnte etwas besser laufen – ihr einziger zahlender Gast ist eine tyrannische Herrscherin aus dem All namens Caldenia, die weltweit gesucht wird. Doch dann steht eines Tages ein Schiedsmann vor Dinas Tür und sucht Räumlichkeiten für eine Friedenskonferenz mit magischen Teilnehmern. Das Überleben Tausender hängt vom Ergebnis der Konferenz ab, also überlegt Dina nicht lange und sagt zu.

Dina Demille erholt sich gerade von der nervenaufreibenden Friedenskonferenz in ihrem magischen Gasthaus, als ein Hilferuf ihrer Schwester Maud sie erreicht. Zusammen mit Vampir Arland und Werwolf Sean jettet Dina in die düsterste Ecke des Universums, um Maud und deren kleine Vampir-Tochter Helen zu retten. Sie bringt die beiden auf der Erde in ihrer Pension in Sicherheit. Doch Dinas Pension wäre nicht Dinas Pension, wenn jetzt alles in ruhigen Bahnen verliefe. Es sieht so aus, als ob die alte Fehde zwischen Hirus und Draziris ausgerechnet vor ihrer Tür gelandet ist.

Die lang ersehnte Rückkehr in die Welt von Kate Daniels! Atlanta war schon immer eine gefährliche Stadt. Doch seit Magie und Technik einen Kampf um die Vorherrschaft ausfechten, suchen Monster die Straßen heim und Magiebegabte kämpfen um Macht und ums Überleben. Vor acht Jahren verließ Julie Lennart die Stadt, um herauszufinden, wer sie ist. Nun ist sie zurück - mit einem neuen Gesicht, einem neuen Namen - Aurelia Ryder.

Wenn Vertrauen zur Feuerprobe wird. In einer Welt, in der Magie alles bedeutet - Reichtum, Macht und Ansehen. Eine Welt, in der Familiendynastien das Schicksal der Menschen bestimmen, Kriege führen und Politik beeinflussen. Seit dem Tod ihres Vaters ist Nevada Baylor die Hauptverdienerin in ihrer Familie. Als Privatdetektivin übernimmt sie jeden Fall, um alle über Wasser zu halten - sie lässt sich sogar auf einen Auftrag ein, der sie in Lebensgefahr bringt. Nevada soll einen mächtigen Feuermagier dingfest machen, als ihr Weg den von Connor "Mad" Rogan kreuzt.

Wie Feuer und Eis Ihre außergewöhnliche magische Fähigkeit - zu erkennen, wann jemand lügt - kommt Nevada Baylor in ihrem Job als Privatdetektivin gerade recht. Zusammen mit ihrem Fleiß und ihrer Beharrlichkeit hat sie es geschafft, ihre (vielleicht ein bisschen exzentrische) Familie mit ihrer Detektei über Wasser zu halten. Aber in ihrem neuen Fall muss sich Nevada abermals gegen die finsteren Mächte stellen, die Houston bereits einmal zerstören wollten.

Kate Daniels may have quit the Order of Merciful Aid, but she's still knee-deep in paranormal problems. Or she would be if she could get someone to hire her. Starting her own business has been more challenging than she thought it would be - now that the order is disparaging her good name, and many potential clients are afraid of getting on the bad side of the Beast Lord, who just happens to be Kate's mate. 

Rose Drayton lives on the Edge, between the world of the Broken (where people drive cars, shop at Wal-Mart, and magic is a fairy tale) and the Weird (where blueblood aristocrats rule, changelings roam, and the strength of your magic can change your destiny). Only Edgers like Rose can easily travel from one world to the next, but they never truly belong in either.
