Sweet Shadows (Medusa Girls #2) by Tera
Lynn Childs
Three teenage descendants of Medusa, now united,
must claim their heritage to fight the monsters escaped from the abyss.
Gretchen may have known she was a descendant of Medusa long before her sisters--after all, she's spent her life fighting the monsters that escape the abyss--but that doesn't mean it will be easy to teach the other girls the ropes.
Greer has pressing social commitments on her plate and precious little time to train in her newfound powers. But that wretched second sight won't leave her alone, and her fabled heritage seems to be creeping into her fashionable life.
Grace has worries closer to home--like why her brother, Thane, has disappeared. He's hiding something. Could it possibly be related to the secret heritage the triplets share?

Hallaway
Recent college grad Alex Conner is thrilled to have landed a job as the
Hughes County coroner/medical examiner in Pierre, South Dakota. But when her
first day on the job ends with a missing corpse, Alex starts to wonder if she
would have been better off collecting unemployment...
When the cops made some cryptic comments about being careful with the body they brought in, Alex just thought the boys in blue were messing with her. That is, until something freaky happens that no amount of med school could have prepared her for. By the time Alex gets herself together, the body has disappeared and the other residents of the morgue start talking her ear off.
After working up the courage to report the missing body, Alex is transferred to the mysterious Precinct 13 where she discovers that her new co-workers—including a cute technomage named Jack—are paranormals just like her. Now, Alex is being encouraged to use her ability to speak to the dead to solve crimes. And despite being in the middle of nowhere, Hughes County sure does have a lot of paranormal activity…

Unlikely Allies (Jessica McClain #1) by Tiffany
King {ebook}
Eighteen-year-old Kimberly gets the shock of her life when she learns
the father she thought was dead is not only very much alive, but never even
knew she existed. Angry with her mother for lying all these years, Kimberly
flies to Colorado to meet the father she knows nothing about before heading off
to college in the fall.
Her father’s world turns out to be nothing like she expected. Rather than the typical nine to five lifestyle, Kimberly’s father runs a summer foster camp that teaches young children skills to build their confidence and self-esteem. The Colorado Rocky Mountains are a different world than the sunny shores of California, taking Kimberly completely out of her element, and causing her to second-guess her spur of the moment decision.
Never being one to quit anything, Kimberly is determined to show her father that a surfer girl can fit into this rugged mountain wilderness. That is if she can deal with Mason, an arrogant nineteen-year-old guy who has made it his mission to point out every mistake she has made since her arrival. While she would love nothing more than to rub it in his know-it-all face, Kimberly can’t deny the feelings he stirs up inside her, or the chemistry between them, even during their verbal assaults.

The Texas Rancher's Marriage by Cathy Gillen Thacker
Few
people in Laramie, Texas, know that Merri Duncan is actually the biological
mother of her late sister's twins. Even fewer know that Chase Armstrong, and
not his late brother, is their biological father. It's even news to Chase—and
when he returns from military duty, he's determined to do the right thing by
Merri, who's been raising the twins alone on the Broken Arrow ranch. It's time
for a walk to the altar, for the sake of the children.
There's
just one problem. Merri and Chase are, as they always have been, just
friends—nothing more. Without love, their marriage can never be truly complete.
Sticking it out may mean sacrificing their chances for future happiness. But
maybe faith, hope and desire can bring these two newlyweds what they truly
need. After all, it is the season of miracles.

the unforgettable DEA agent she once brought back from the brink of death.

Garcia knows that demons exist—the real kind, the kind that are kidnapping

when Stacia summons all her powers to prove what she really is, Alex will
summon all his to believe in the vampire's kiss.
