Monsters Among Us: Hartford Cove

Rowe Branning return to Hartford Cove after fifteen years, hoping to reconnect with her grandma, but her arrival is met with hostility. Faced with a sheriff who's way too hot, a ghost from her past, and her questionable sanity, nothing in Hartford Cove is as it seems. Secrets hide around every corner, and everywhere Rowe looks, she sees monsters.

When Rowe Branning sets off with her faithful wolfhound, Tris, on a quest to visit a grandmother she hasn't seen in fifteen years, her arrival in Hartford Cove is far less welcoming than she hoped for. Her reason for coming is put into question, and the way the sheriff looks at her makes her feel like prey even as she's drawn to him. Then ghosts from her past return in the flesh, making Rowe question what she remembers of her last visit to this hidden town, when she watched her mother and her best friend be brutally mauled by a monster out of nightmares.

Hartford Cove is no stranger to hiding the truth, but this time, the secrets revealed are about Rowe’s new mate, the vampire Ambrose. When Rowe kidnapped Ros and hauled him back to Hartford Cove, she knew she was taking more than one risk. The small town of wolf shifters doesn’t play friendly with vampires. But Rowe hopes that a peace offering will finally lay this centuries-old feud to rest. Returning to Hartford Cove may have been a mistake, though.

A town on edge. A secret heritage revealed. No pie in sight. Rowe thought putting the feud between the wolf shifters and the huntsmen to rest was the hard part, but learning to control her magic turns out to be a whole new monster. In true Rowe fashion, nothing is going right, and the expectations of the witch community only make it worse. She wants nothing more than to eat pie and take it easy with her mates, but with so many newcomers to Hartford Cove, Rowe’s time is stretched thin between magic classes and integrating the new witches and vampires into the once quiet town.
