A woman known only as A lives in an unnamed American city with her roommate, B, and boyfriend, C, who wants her to join him on a reality dating show called That's My Partner!

No point unpacking. No point hanging posters or butt-ugly curtains. No point when every six months Jenny Taylor moves to a new city. New school. New softball team. All thanks to her famous dad, the newest 'hot-thing' in baseball. And making friends? Impossible. Swing Away, the first novel in the Little League Series, continues the story of friendship, home, and love. And the courage needed to find your own path.

Jenny, like any good pitcher, knows when to throw at a batter. When to throw a fastball. And when to drop and cover. Like now. Especially as big, meaty Lacey glares at her. Hands the size of bear paws, and the entire softball team saying in pretty clear words: Go. Home. The short story that inspired the novel Swing Away. A story of friendship, finding your own place, and just maybe, a date to the prom.

He hijacks my list for his own, follows me to Vegas, and a prank by our coworkers involving too much alcohol turns into a marriage. Oops! For a split second, I wonder if this is the chance I’ve been waiting for. Unfortunately, Marcus is determined to end the marriage and set us back in the friend zone.

World's apart, Anastasia and Dakota both face the fight of their lives. Hope is little more than a four-letter word as she struggles to survive, and he fights to maintain peace in Terrenia. Until the Sorceress returns. Armed with more power than any other in all the worlds, she is the only one who stands a chance at stopping the darkness heading straight for them.

Forty-six. That’s how many hybrids survived the Hunter attack in the woods after I revived them with an injection of my blood. That’s how many followed me home to Frederick Falls. And that’s how many were now mentally linked to me through a blood bond. Two days. Three valium. Fourteen hours of sleep. That’s what it took to realize I wasn’t losing my mind as a result of the noise in my own head.

"You are nothing but a monster dressed in a pretty little bow." For years, there has been peace amongst the worlds. Even as Anastasia longs to celebrate, her recurring nightmares have prevented her from fully embracing the harmony. She desires to believe her fear is unwarranted, that it's simply the result of spending an entire life at war. But it's not long before a new enemy arrives, a deadly siren who sets her sights set on obtaining the one person Anastasia cannot live without.

Beaten down, broken, and battle-scarred, Anastasia has been forced to bury one too many friends. Seeing yet another body lowered into the ground fractures what's left of her soul. Now, with only one goal in mind, she is willing to stop at nothing to put an end to her enemy. Even if it means sacrificing the worlds themselves. Which is precisely what will happen if she obtains the power she seeks.

If I had to choose one word to sum up all of my problems, this would be it. Without hybrids, I wouldn’t have to watch my best friend slowly becoming a monster. Without hybrids, I could let go of the mentality “hunt or be hunted.” CHAS wouldn’t be scouring the Earth, intent on slaughtering and using Alex to do it. Without hybrids, I wouldn’t have to be on guard that losing my temper meant losing my shape.

But here she is, raising her young son on her own, trying to piece her life back together three years after it was turned upside down. She packs what is left of their belongings, fitting them into an RV that depleted the last of her savings, and summons the courage to return to the small coastal town in Maine where the three of them vacationed every year up until Levi died in a tragic boating accident.

Surviving a werewolf attack should’ve been the strangest thing to happen to me tonight. But no, the universe had other plans. Now, I’m stuck dealing with a broodingly hot guy named Wesley St. John—who seems way too comfortable with murder. Definitely a red flag, right? Wes isn’t just some guy I stumbled upon—he’s a protector, but not the friendly kind. His job is to keep the supernatural world in check, and my ignorance is making things complicated.

Not even Wes can save me from the darkness that’s consuming me. Gordon Steppe wants my blood, and more than that, he wants to get inside my head—control the bond I share with the hybrids and use it to destroy anything with dirty blood. If I don’t help him, he’ll kill everyone I love, starting with my pack. But the real battle isn’t just against Steppe—it’s against the beast within me. Every day, it’s getting harder to keep it at bay. The prophecy says I’m supposed to save everyone, but all my choices seem to lead to more pain, more danger, more death.
