It was a Good Friday... On the third Friday of every month, a young priest named Connor makes the long trek through the isolated countryside to visit his stoic lover, Ivan. The humble shepherd welcomes him with open arms and a ravenous appetite. They lose themselves to the throes of passion until the sun comes up on Saturday, then Connor leaves to tend to his own flock in the city - much to the dismay of Ivan who longs to have him give up the priesthood and call the cabin home. Though Connor knows he cannot give into those desires, his heart yearns for a simpler life at Ivan's side. During one of their Friday visits, a storm forces Connor to stay longer than he'd planned. Despite his bubbling guilt, he begins contemplating the risks of accepting Ivan's pleas to stay, igniting a crisis of faith and identity for the priest that rattles his constitution. As the storm rages, red lightning cracks overhead, and a demonic entity appears at the gates of the pasture, leaving behind a trail of carnage in its wake. The towering figure begins closing in, mutilating any living creature that dares to cross the threshold of the ranch, all the while counting down the days with a raised hand and malicious intent. Trapped with time running out, the panicked priest and his skeptical shepherd soon realize that they may be next for the slaughter if they can't overcome their own demons in time to exorcise the one on the other side of the door...

Calix Addington, Earl of Batherton, has a complicated relationship with his friend and former classmate, Lawton Adler. Lawton’s tendency to attract, and often cause, trouble leaves Calix sometimes holding the bag (which definitely happens). Calix is also harboring a secret – he’s an Oracle, like his mother, and in a world where small magic is meant for aesthetics and convenience, larger displays of magic are frowned upon, sometimes illegal, and very much what the church and several important organizations fear. When Calix is stuck with a strange book after Lawton’s shady dealings go wrong one spring morning, he takes shelter in Ethaniel Harkness’s magical tailoring shop. Calix and Ethaniel know each other as customer and tailor, but Ethaniel’s kind heart won’t let Calix stay in danger. As Calix hears the strange book speak in his mind, Ethaniel contacts his old flame Aubrey Lavigne. Aubrey’s expertise with magical objects as the curator for the Magnificus Collectio, an archive hidden behind a tourist trap museum, will be key to understanding what this book truly is. Magic, love, lust, fear, and danger run rampant as this strange book becomes the catalyst for a much larger plot conducted by a secret sect known as The Golden Order. With The Golden Order giving chase to retrieve the book, Calix, Ethaniel, and Aubrey’s lives tangle and they must flee the city to separate Calix from the book, shake off their pursuers, and find time for their burgeoning attractions. COUP DE COEUR has deep roots in the real-life queer history of New York City, but also in art and culture.

Octavia Wilder cares for those who live in the town her ancestor built and when a feral vampire threatens the peace, she partners with the Ranger who has brought word of the threat.

When Luther's trail leads him to the odd little town of Wilderwood, he quickly realizes there's more to the town - and his hunt - than expected.

The three of them must fight to save Wilderwood from an invasion from another realm and protect the town from the Faelands Queen.

The Sheehy witches are the most feared and detested family on the island of Inisliath, and none more so than Rowan. As a deathwalker, Rowan ferries island souls to the Otherworld, experiencing their deaths and carrying their memories like ghosts within him. It's a fated role he accepts even as it inexorably destroys him. When the magic on the island starts to seep away from the other founding families, everyone blames the Sheehys—especially when islanders start dying. Ash is sick of their father's fists and constantly having to apologize for who they are. Life on Inisliath might be the fresh start Ash and their mum need, and meeting soft-spoken, curly-haired Rowan feels like the ray of sunshine Ash has desperately needed—but everything goes sideways when Ash's mum becomes lead detective on a series of ritualistic murders allegedly tied to island magic, and Ash's family history. The islanders are convinced Rowan is guilty, but Ash refuses to believe it. When Ash does some investigating of their own, they discover Rowan is far more likely to be the next victim. With time running out to save Rowan, Ash will have to choose between a life free of their father or the boy they’re starting to love. Meanwhile Rowan will have to decide just how much he's willing to sacrifice to save his family from the darkness about to be unleashed on the island.
