Stars and Soil by Dax Murray

Lies Are Forever by C. Jean Downer

If you’re a fan of urban mysteries like the Dresden Files and Charmed, you’ll like Lies Are Forever, a paranormal mystery with a feisty and flawed private investigator, Sloane West, a tricky plot, a supernaturally charged setting, eccentric supporting cast, and a dash of romance.

Remedial Magic by Melissa Marr

Remedial Magic is a fantasy romance about Ellie, an unassuming librarian who 1) has fallen in love with a powerful witch; 2) has discovered that she is a witch; and 3) must attend magical community college to learn how to save her new world from complete destruction.

Prospero, a powerful witch from the magical land of Crenshaw, is often accused of being ruthless in her goals and ambitions. But she is driven to save her dying homeland, and a prophecy tells her that a newly discovered witch, Ellie, is the key.

Will these enemies find a way to work together before the killer strikes again?

Goddess of the Sea by Britney Jackson

Emilia Drakon, pirate, fugitive, and dragon sorceress, loves her captain and her dragons, and she’ll do whatever it takes to protect them—including the will of a sea goddess.

Captain Maria Welles, on the other hand, has no interest in the games that gods and goddesses like to play, but when she finds herself in the middle of it anyway, the infamous pirate captain, who likes to think she knows everything, will have to delve into a world unknown to her.

In this sequel to Pirates of Aletharia, our lesbian pirates must confront enemies, magical creatures, and their own trauma for the sake of what they love.
