Résumé (traduction personnelle) : Mon nom est Hedi Peacock et j’ai un secret. Je ne suis pas humaine, j’ai les oreilles pointues des Faes et un tempérament de garou pour le prouver. Comme les contes de fées, mon enfance était sacrément proche de la perfection, tout en fourrure et pleine de magie jusqu’à ce qu’un loup-garou tue mon père et qu’un Fae exécute ma mère. Je n’ai jamais pardonné chacune des deux espèces. Surtout Robson Trowbridge. Il était un loup-garou à temps partiel, un bâtard à temps plein, le premier et le seul garçon que je n’ai jamais aimé. Cela, jusqu’à ce qu’il devienne le principal suspect dans la mort de mon père …
Aujourd’hui, je suis une métis barista qui travaille dans un café chic, vivant avec ma tante loufoque Lou et une amulette avec un sacré tempérament appelée Merry, et je me demandais quel était le sens de ma vie. Une existence à peu près normale, compte tenu des circonstances. Mais quand une meute de loups-garous décide de kidnapper ma tante et me force à voler une autre amulette, le seul qui peut m’aider est la dernière personne à laquelle je n’aurais jamais pensé me tourner : Robson Trowbridge. Et il est aussi fâcheusement beau que dans mon souvenir. C’est le problème avec le destin : Parfois, il aboie. D’autres fois, il mord. Et le reste du temps, il brise le cœur. Encore une fois …

Vampire et Indésirable (Queen Betsy, 8) – MaryJanice Davidson
When an enemy from her past returns with her death on his mind, she is forced to call on every ounce of her mixed heritage to save herself—and everyone else in the city she calls home.

Too bad Secret also feels a connection with Desmond, Lucas’s second-in-command…
The trouble with Fate (Mystwalker, 1) – Leigh Evans
My name is Hedi Peacock and I have a secret. I’m not human, and I have the pointy Fae ears and Were inner-bitch to prove it. As fairy tales go, my childhood was damn near perfect, all fur and magic until a werewolf killed my father and the Fae executed my mother. I’ve never forgiven either side. Especially Robson Trowbridge. He was a part-time werewolf, a full-time bastard, and the first and only boy I ever loved. That is, until he became the prime suspect in my father’s death…
Today I’m a half-breed barista working at a fancy coffee house, living with my loopy Aunt Lou and a temperamental amulet named Merry, and wondering where in the world I’m going in life. A pretty normal existence, considering. But when a pack of Weres decides to kidnap my aunt and force me to steal another amulet, the only one who can help me is the last person I ever thought I’d turn to: Robson Trowbridge. And he’s as annoyingly beautiful as I remember. That’s the trouble with fate: Sometimes it barks. Other times it bites. And the rest of the time it just breaks your heart. Again…
Crave the Darkness (Shaede Assassin, 3) – Amanda Bonilla
Nothing comes easy for Darian. Her heightened powers make her indispensable to the Shaede Nation, but dangerous missions have driven her lover, Tyler, to his breaking point. Darian must salvage their bond, but a new assignment to protect Anya—a fellow Shaede and the first of their kind to become pregnant in centuries—stands in their way.
It doesn’t help that the two Shaedes are longtime rivals and share nothing besides mutual hatred. But when it becomes clear that someone—or something—is bent on destroying the expectant mother and her unborn child, Darian must put her feelings aside and track down Anya’s would-be assassin.
As she probes into Anya’s past, Darian digs up long-buried secrets—and a connection between Tyler and the mission that could destroy everything between them…
