Overview: Rachel is the author of both contemporary and fantasy stories. She’s a The Office enthusiast, a The Lord of the Rings superfan, and a sucker for all things geek. She reads anything with clean romance—bonus points if there’s some snarky MCs, funny side characters, and a happy ending. Rachel is dog obsessed, and two of her series even include her dogs (Daisy Mae appears in A Tale of Ribbons & Claws and Marshall is in Legends of Avalon). This hobbit author and her dogs spend lots of time writing, walking, and of course, watching The Office and the appendices from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit.

Stale-Mate (#1)
She might look like a daydream, but she’s more interested in revenge than lipstick and lashes.
He might look like a nightmare, but he’s more than his dark ancestry and formidable appearance would have her believe.
When her path of vengeance intertwines with his murky road to redemption, the two of them will either come to an agreement, or come to blows.
Have you ever been underestimated because of the way you look? Me too. But I do it on purpose.
I’m Caroline, lover of ribbons, frilly skirts and curly hair—mostly because they’re all great places to hide spy equipment. Plus, my girly appearance also doubles as the perfect cover. No one suspects the innocent girl with the pretty smile and the pink Converse. Which means that no one knows I’m the spy walking the streets of Shifter Haven, cleaning up the Shifter Council one shady council member at a time.
I have my reasons for my vendetta; I won’t get into them here. But let’s just say that being an ‘extinct’ species—one that people want to remain extinct—hasn’t been fun. And after years of living like a secret, I got tired of being the hunted. So, instead, I became the hunter.
Well at least I was the hunter. Until he showed up.
Morgan Hohlt is a major pain in the backside—he also just has a majorly nice backside, but that’s beside the point. From disrupting my missions, to kidnapping me—yeah, I’m still pretty ticked about that—he’s gotten on my last nerve. Although, in his defense, someone is trying to kill me, so I might’ve needed just a little interference.
But the longer we’re forced to work together, the more I’m beginning to wonder if all the rumors I’ve heard about him are true. Because how can a man who loves my dog and buys me junk food be so evil and malicious like they say he is?
Don’t get me wrong, Morgan and I will always be enemies, and he’ll always annoy me to the very edge of my sanity, but maybe he’s not totally terrible. At the very least, he’s not terrible to look at. So, there’s that…
Bond-Mate (#2)
She’s spent her whole life trying to prove that she’s more than a pretty face.
He’s spent years believing that he’s no more than a beast.
When their separate battles become one war, their tactics will have to change—if for no one else, then for each other.
Caroline:
I don’t ask for much in life. A constant supply of snack foods, Barbie’s dream closet, and to continue my work as the vigilante of Shifter Haven. Simple, right? I thought so, too. But then he showed up.
Morgan:
I showed up? More like Caroline crashed into my life and broke everything in the process. Including all my rules about never falling in love again…
Caroline:
I don’t break rules, I bend them.
Morgan:
…
Caroline:
Okay, fine, I’m a bull in a China shop. Whatever. The point is that even though we beat the bad guy, I’m still being hunted, Morgan’s still under fire, and somewhere out there is someone who’s in the market for an Elf.
If we thought we were behind the eight ball before, it’s even worse now….
Morgan:
And speaking of being behind the eight ball, not only do we not know who we can trust or how to keep each other alive, but I’m also harboring a secret from Caroline…
Why don’t I just man up and tell her the truth? Because I’m a coward, and if I tell her the truth too soon, I’m afraid I’ll never get the chance to see if that smart mouth of hers tastes as snarky as it looks…
Check-Mate (#3)
This daydream might have traded in her lock picks to lock down the beast instead. But will she trade her spot in the shadows for something…shinier?
This nightmare may have traded in his claws for being her hand to hold. But will he trade his dark reputation if it’s the only thing keeping her safe?
It’s the final chapter, and while Caroline’s new situation has put her further in danger, Morgan has suddenly become the hunted. Will this snarky, flirtatious duo finally win this twisted game of subterfuge? Or will they lose in the end?
Caroline:
Have you ever been in a fight, knocked down time after time, and yet you keep making the idiotic decision to not only stand back up, but taunt your opponent while you’re at it? Nope? Just me…That checks out.
In my defense, I’m a spy—and I’m dang good at it too. Lock picking, profiling, manipulating my targets so they not only don’t suspect me, but blindly smile at me while I swindle them are all weapons I carry in my arsenal. This new game of politics though? That, I’m pathetically unarmed for. At a glance, it would seem lucky that I just so happen to have a Chief in my circle of people…That is, if said Chief were more of a help and less of a distraction…
Morgan:
She thinks I’m the distraction? That’s rich, considering she’s the reason I’m struggling to keep my cool lately. It wasn’t enough that she has me on edge over…us…but she’s once again at the center of conflict. I’m beginning to think it’s part of the Caroline operating system—‘must make a scene of every moment I’m in’. It’d be driving me crazy if I wasn’t so freaking into her.
Caroline:
Again with you blaming me for all the chaos. It’s not my fault that chaos finds me attractive, Morgan.
Morgan:
No, it’s my problem. Because she’s my problem—and she will be forever, if I have anything to say about it.
First though, we just have to find the culprit—or culprits—who are after her, locate a missing group of people, straighten out the seemingly many compromised government officials, and deal with Caroline’s new job. The one that’s almost gotten her killed already.
And all of those things will require that the two of us work very
