There's no saying Bye-Bye to this Banshee…

Weeks ago, I was seconds away from calling an exorcist to deal with my ghostly squatter; but as it turned out, she was actually here to help.

Now, my Banshee has gone from 'uninvited guest' to 'tour guide' because she's coming to take Shade and me into the Realm of Souls.

And why are we going there?

Turns out that's where Shade's brother, the Witch King, is being held—and of course, my magic is the only thing that can set him free.

But surviving the barren hell that is the Soul Realm is a whole other ballgame.

And even with all the training I'm being given and my bracelet pumping magical steroids into my skin, I'm still not sure I'm ready to face this.

But I don't have time to develop a backup plan, because if I stay too long in the Realm of Souls...

I can't come back.

I expected midlife to change me, but I never expected this…

Finding out that my origins have cosmic ramifications has really put the pressure on me. And while my friends and I defied the odds and stopped the Pretender, our victory left unexpected consequences.

Mainly my boyfriend becoming my enemy—and my potential old-new love interest returning to my life.

On top of that, Fallen villains created open deals with immortal gods who revel in chaos.

And If I want to save the magical and human worlds from destruction, I’ll have to reconcile my mysterious family lineage with my mortal life.

But what I crave most is my own happily ever after, but in order to get that, I’ll have to decide what I’m willing to sacrifice to keep the people and town I love safe.

Because peace always comes at a price; so what will mine be?

On my list of things I never thought I’d hear myself say; ‘Werewolves’ are the best kissers’ is certainly at the top. But here I am, one sheriff-shifter boyfriend later, and it’s absolutely true.

Who knew that all it took to fix my love life was a man who could walk on all fours?

After the Pretender’s defeat, life in Mystic Falls has mostly moved on, but I can’t seem to shake this nagging feeling that something isn’t right. And whether by choice—or force—the other man who held a piece of my heart, Jack, is still missing.

And now, with more mysterious disappearances emerging, it’s clear that things aren’t as peaceful as they seem. My investigative instincts tell me there’s a new monster on the loose—and if I don’t discover them, they’ll finish what the Pretender started and destroy everything I’ve come to love.

But in order to save Mystic Falls, the only place I’ve ever belonged, I’ll have to face my past to pave a new way forward. Armed with my favorite boots, my furry familiar, and my posse of magical misfits, we’re going to kick some major bad guy booty.

Who says it’s all downhill after forty?

When Harper Kagel receives word that her cousin had taken a deadly fall, she drops everything and returns to her hometown of Steepwick, Maine.

She’s avoided the odd town with a witchy past for decades, and only planned to stay long enough for the funeral. But her cousin had other plans. Now Harper’s the new owner of her cousin’s home, café-bookstore, and opinionated Westie named Einstein.

The town’s residents welcome Harper’s return with open arms, including her ex. The secret crime solvers’ society even inducts her into their Cold Case Club.

But when Harper finds herself the target of a killer, she’ll need the Cold Case Club’s help to solve an ancient family mystery. If they can’t figure it out, Harper will follow in the footsteps of her dearly departed cousin.

When the Cold Case Club make plans to head to a nearby bed and breakfast, Harper Kagel looks forward to a few days in the lap of luxury. She’s ready for some relaxation after solving a family mystery that almost ended in her death.

Promises of days lounging by the pool give way to sleuthing when a murder takes place in their own backyard. The quirky group can’t pass up the challenge of finding a killer once again.

But when Harper returns home, she senses something that wasn’t there before. Her ancestors. What are they trying to tell her? And will it cause a rift between her and her skeptical maybe no longer an ex?

The Fool Card is the second book in Prediction: Murder?, a quirky cozy mystery series from Vickie Carroll. Escape into the quaint town of Steepwick with your copy today!

When Harper learns her cousin's death might not have been accidental, she and the Cold Case Club spring back into action. Harper’s sleuthing does nothing for her budding relationship with her ex-flame, the Chief of Police, and the constant harassment from a rival family threatens to thwart the investigation.

Since inheriting her late cousin's estate in the secretly witchy Steepwick, Maine, Harper has had to solve one mystery after another. Many led back to a rival family who accused Harper's ancestor of putting a curse on theirs. Harper thought the feud was over, but others have taken up the cause, and this time they’ve invoked some magical help.

Can Harper embrace her ancestral gifts in time to put an end to the rival family's nefarious plotting and find out who killed her cousin, or will she risk the wrath of the most powerful sorceress in the history of all time?

At this point in my life, any ideas I had about fairytales coming true have gone up in flames.

Instead of working as a star reporter, I’m stuck writing obituaries; and the only person waiting up for me at night is covered in fur.

With my forty-year mark around the corner, I decide it’s time for a fresh start—and a chance encounter tells me exactly where I should go…

Mystic Falls, Massachusetts seems like any other quaint east coast town. And the biggest scandal I expect to find is that the mayor doesn’t bake his own Christmas cookies.

Instead, I discover a whole lot more.

Now, I’ve found myself squarely in the middle of a supernatural murder mystery and the clock is ticking on a foreboding prophecy that only I can solve.

There’s a new purpose on Simone’s mind—find Chet someone to love and be loved by.

She just knows that there is something good inside of him, and maybe with April’s help, Chet can prove to be not such a bad guy after all. Simone has high hopes that there could be a happily ever after for her and Orin, and maybe even for Chet and April too, but unfortunately Chet’s misuse of magic has already caused some damage to be undone.

When the magical mayhem is tracked back to the demons that Chet let through the gates of hell, they all have no choice but to journey to hell themselves and stop the corruption at its source. But when they get there, they find that there are a few things they didn’t count on, including Persephone’s ex-boyfriend, Jax…who just so happens to be the Prince of Hell.

As Simone continues searching for a way out of the Black Book for herself and her friends, it becomes increasingly clear that another threat is stuck inside the story with them.

But just as they figure out how to free themselves, the one tool they need has suddenly been removed from the story.

Now, only Chet and his special vampiric skill set will be able to help Simone write a new ending into the book and get them back to reality. But when Orin shows up with a surprising revelation, it leads Simone to making an unexpected and risky choice.

And as all hell breaks loose—literally—Simone is hurdled into a moment of chaos that can result in only one decision being made, one that could cause her to lose everyone she loves forever…

After the shocking discovery that she might be the prophesied daughter of supernatural parents, Simone totally welcomes being whisked away to the woods for some peace and quiet.

Especially because it gives her a chance to get to know Orin better, even if it does cause Chet to spiral into a furious rage.

But just when she thinks she can relax, Ned disappears and she’s suddenly stricken with a magical affliction. And no one is prepared for what’s coming next—the arrival of Simone’s magical and highly dramatic parents.

Since everyone finally seems to be getting along (at least on the surface), Simone indulges her curiosity and writes an ending into the black book. Little does she know that what she thought would be everyone’s happily-ever-after, ends up creating much bigger problems…

Problems that send her friends from the real world—straight into a fictional one.

Now, she’ll have to put her trust in the parents she never knew, and herself, in order to bring them home.
