Stakes and Stems

There are no vampires.

 

At least that’s what Charlie Williams keeps telling herself. After her winery’s last event nearly turned into supernatural bloodshed, she’s understandably nervous about her Valentine’s winemaker dinner. Things go from bad to worse when alarms go off at the winery and cops discover messages scrawled on the walls in blood.

 

Charlie is barely keeping it together as she rallies her staff and deals with guests, all while avoiding the idea that vampires are infesting her winery. But when her best friend and her events manager go on high alert, Charlie is left wondering if her winery will be a success or die on the vine…

 

Stakes and Stems is a prequel novella to Here to Slay in the Vamps in the Vineyard Paranormal Women’s Fiction Adventure series. If you like strong female characters, all slaying and no laying, and more vampire puns than you can shake a stake at, then this is the series for you!

Raising a Demon

Being a single mother has its challenges, but Evie never imagined that “the talk” would involve Ouija boards and pentagrams. 

 

Evelyn Addams is forty-three and fabulous. She has a great kid, fantastic friends, and doesn’t need a man to complete her. But when she catches ten-year-old Lily summoning a demon to ask for birthday wishes—and the demon who turns up is Evie’s summer fling from eleven years ago—her comfortable life is shattered. 

 

Reuniting with an old flame is tricky enough but finding out he grows horns and a tail makes a romantic reconnection downright complicated. And when Lily is kidnapped by her newfound grandfather, the last shred of her old life is destroyed, and everything goes to hell.

 

Will Evie and her friends rescue Lily from hell before the lights go out and the lost souls come out to play? And can she ignore past and Luc’s family complications to take a second chance on love and learn how to raise a demon’s daughter? 

 

Raising a Demon is the first Eden Valley book—a magical new paranormal women’s fiction series from USA Today Bestselling Author Amy Cissell, author of the Eleanor Morgan novels and the Oracle Bay series.

Match Made in Hell

Evelyn Addams is fresh off a divorce and ready to kick up her heels. A fling with the sexy-as-hell Luc Morgenstern fits the bill perfectly.

 

Luc was supposed to be her rebound guy, nothing more than a second notch on her bedpost, but somewhere between the first night they met and the end of the summer, Evie did something she’d promised herself she wouldn’t do. She caught feelings. 

 

Just when she thinks she’s worked up the courage to tell Luc how she feels and ask him to give their relationship a real chance, he drops a bombshell on her heart and fate follows suit. Will she overcome her fear and ask Luc to stay? Or will a match made in hell split them apart forever?

 

Match Made in Hell is an origin story novella in Eden Valley, a magical new paranormal women’s fiction series from USA Today Bestselling Author Amy Cissell, author of the Eleanor Morgan novels and the Oracle Bay series.

 

Match Made in Hell has romantic elements, but it is not a romance.

Here to Slay

Who says vampire slaying is a young woman’s game?

When 50-year-old Charlie Williams buys the winery she’s been saving for her whole life, she thought her vessel—wine not sailing—had come in.

Sure, there’d been a couple supernatural snafus, but that was behind her. But when she’s ambushed at home by two vampires, all she has to fall back on is witty banter and a hot streak of luck. Avoiding the truth won’t work anymore. The vampires are back, and accepting her calling as a middle-aged Buffy is the only way to save her business—and stay alive. 

Charlie’s dreams of wine-making success are disappearing faster than a glass of chardonnay at a garden party. Unfortunately, the vampires keep raising the stakes.

How much more can her life suck? She’s about to find out…

Here to Slay is book 1 in the new Vamps in the Vineyard Paranormal Women’s Fiction Adventure series. If you like strong female characters, all slaying and no laying, and more vampire puns than you can shake a stake at, then this is the series for you!

Devil and the Deep Blue Lake

In Eden Valley, not all the monsters hide in the dark. 

 

Genevieve Kane is happy in Seattle and is in no way concerned about the demon brand that appeared last year nor the painful—and painfully accurate—premonitions that have plagued her ever since. And she definitely isn’t longing for Sam, the sexy demon with whom she’d had a fling on her last trip. 

 

Viv knows the only way to keep herself safe and sane is to distance herself from her past and the family who’d betrayed her, even if that means losing the best friends she’d ever had and another chance with Sam. 

 

But distance doesn’t stop the visions, and all signs point to Viv being the only one who can save the town from the insatiable hunger hiding in Eden Lake’s icy depths. Will she give up the life she thought she wanted and risk being pulled back into Eden Valley forever? And can she overcome her personal demons for a chance at love with the demon she left behind?

 

Devil and the Deep, Blue Lake is the second book in a magical new paranormal women’s fiction series from USA Today Bestselling Author Amy Cissell, author of the Eleanor Morgan novels and the Oracle Bay series.
