Description
Meet the women of Mysteria-and the creatures they fall for-in four stories of paranormal passion from four New York Times bestselling authors.
Located in the picturesque mountains of Colorado, Mysteria is a place where the supernatural co-exists with the natural. It's a town of bewitching seduction, dark magic, and sensual demons...
In MaryJanice Davidson's "Alone Wolf," Charlene Houtenan is the voluptuous local realtor, who knows a hot property when she sees one. And when a new werewolf appears in town, she's going to make a move he can't resist...
In P. C. Cast's "Candy Cox and the Big Bad (Were) Wolf," Candice Cox may be Mysteria High's sexiest teacher, but after five husbands, she's burnt out on romance. Until a former student-a drool-worthy werewolf-makes her howl at the moon...
In Gena Showalter's "The Witches of Mysteria and the Dead Who Love Them," Genevieve Tawdry is a witch with a bad case of unrequited love for the owner of the local bar. But is his sudden change of heart the result of a love potion-or a literally breathtaking passion?
In Susan Grant's "Mortal in Mysteria," Harmony Faithfull is the new minister in town. She's having a crisis of faith-in herself-until she finds a buck-naked man in her garden, a former demon who unleashes the devil inside her...

Reviews / Votes
"Splitting the difference between Desperate Housewives and The X-Files, this paranormal romance brings magic and monsters to the steamy suburbs in four satisfying novellas about the town of Mysteria. There's magic, heat, and lots of laughs."-Publishers Weekly"Charming, funny, and quite offbeat, this collection highlights the vast talents of these authors. The perfect escape read!"-RT Book Reviews
"Four enchanting paranormal romantic novellas."-Midwest Book Review
"This [anthology] has all of the elements that I just love to read about. I had such fun reading this book. I really didn't want these stories to end. I loved the town of Mysteria and hope these authors see fit to visit the townspeople . . . again!"-The Best Reviews
"Desperate Housewives meets Charmed, this collection of novellas is as varied in its content as the authors who've written them. From sweet and passionate to dark and sexy, the werewolves, vampires, demons, witches, fairies, and humans of Mysteria are as engaging and fun as they are diverse and compelling."-Fresh Fiction
