Humans never knew how magic folks party. Until now. Halloween is Christmas on steroids if you’re of a magical persuasion, which isn’t my claim to fame. I’m more of an apprentice of sorts. Oh, not to be magical, that’s a born-with-it talent, but when I started waiting tables at a local pier bar, at sixteen, guess who discovered she won the world’s weirdest and most exclusive lottery? I, Cleopatra O’Keefe, am a Keeper. Which will probably kill me sooner rather than later. Now I’m fixin’ to debut as a bartender on my twenty-first birthday—which falls on Halloween—in the magical’s hidden bar, serving drinks that could kill me if they explode. Yikes. Lined up for the party are Greek gods, big scary shifters, and witches with crap attitudes. Add in a bunch of huge blue mer people with long, lethal knives and a herd of tiny fairies with murderous skills. Easy peasy, right? Magicals barely tolerate humans, except for one speedo-clad god who has the serious hots for me. I swear, if I survive the night, it’ll be a miracle with a side of mayhem. Good thing I’ve got a magic book and an attitude. I’ll need both.

AUTHOR'S PREFERRED EDITION! A cozy paranormal romance by USA Today bestselling author Mindy Klasky. Librarian-witch Jane Madison is learning a magical lesson the hard way: use it or lose it! Juggling major deadlines at work and a jam-packed social schedule, Jane has taken a break from her arcane life. Now, her magic is taking a break from her—books are fading, runes are crumbling, and her entire witchy collection may soon be lost. Ordinarily, Jane would just buckle down and work a spell or two. But things are strained after an unexpectedly amorous encounter with her arcane protector, David Montrose. And her love life gets even more complicated when she meets a great guy—the type of man a smart woman marries. Moreover, she’s obligated to serve as maid of honor for her beloved grandmother, and her library career won’t take no for an answer. Desperate, Jane stakes everything on one last-ditch spell. Will Jane get her magic back? Or will she be finished as a witch forever?

A cozy paranormal romance by USA Today bestselling author Mindy Klasky. Jane Madison's life is perfect. She's left her unsatisfying librarian job, moved to the country with her boyfriend David Montrose (who is also her sworn astral protector), and opened a school for witches. Alas, Jane never thought a couple of students could possibly be so challenging. And she didn’t plan on her feline familiar growing distracted and disenchanted with all things magical. She certainly didn't think Hecate's Court would mandate a Major Working as soon as Halloween. And it never crossed her mind that she and David would end up fighting about…everything! Before long, Jane wonders if she should ditch her school altogether. But that would have dire magical repercussions—in addition to tossing her love-life in the trash. Can Jane find a survival guide in time to rescue the Jane Madison Academy—and everything else she holds dear?

A cozy paranormal romance by USA Today bestselling author Mindy Klasky. Sometimes a thunderstorm is just a thunderstorm. But not this time. Jane Madison’s school for witches is in session, and the first order of business is an intricate Samhain ritual. Alas, in the midst of a sudden, unseasonable deluge, a classic Greek monster is released into the magic circle. Jane succeeds in vanquishing the beast, but only with the assistance of her sworn enemy, the Coven Mother of Washington DC. Crisis averted, Jane would be perfectly happy to plan her wedding to her astral protector, David Montrose. But how can she look at seating charts when she’s under attack by more monsters, the Coven Mother, and the highest law in the witchy land, Hecate’s Court? All these disasters can’t be coincidence. One of Jane’s students must be a traitor. But will Jane find the turncoat before she loses everything—and everyone—she holds dear?
