Become a bartender at the Vixen’s Den, they said.

The owner isn’t really a vampire, they said.

It’ll be fun, they said.

And suddenly, I’m neck deep in a world I’ve never really believed in, no matter what my crazy Great Aunt Mabel used to say.

Seriously, I have more than enough drama in my life already, without adding an irresistibly mesmerizing nightclub owner to the mix. My boss - a man with a penchant for trouble and the echo of tragedy lurking behind his dark gaze.

My new coworkers appear to be universally insane. My deadbeat ex is in trouble with a capital T, and if history is any indication, he’ll do his best to drag my son and me right along with him. In other news, I’m also being hounded by creditors who seem to think you can make money appear in someone’s bank account by threatening them over the phone.

(Though to be fair, if that approach worked, I’d be all for it. Spoiler alert: It doesn’t.)

To top it all off, while my back was turned, I’ve somehow become a chess piece in a cold war between supernatural factions. Just because magic supposedly runs in my family doesn’t mean I know the first thing about Fae or demons or vampires or any of this craziness.

But it looks like I’m gonna have to learn. Because now they’re coming after the thing I hold most dear - my son. And I’ll do anything to get him back.

Watch out, paranormal world.

Hell hath no fury like a mother’s wrath.
