Something crazy is going on in Crystal Cove…
Opal Mayland is at odds with her beloved police chief grandfather, and his callousness is breaking her heart. She can’t decide if he’s lost his mind, or if he hates that she’s now a full-fledged witch. She loves solving mysteries, but she’ll avoid all spells and sleuthing in her cozy, seaside town until she figures him out. It doesn’t help that Assistant Police Chief Lucas Keller hasn’t bothered to call, making her wonder if she’d imagined his interest. Maybe she’s the one losing her mind. Instead, she’ll focus on a lost little kitten and the beautiful cars that have come to town for Crystal Cove’s annual car show.
But, the universe has other plans. Before the event can begin, Opal discovers one of the participants dead in the charming Victorian inn by the sea. Lucas is first on scene and suddenly back in her life. Worse, all fingers point to a dear friend as the murderer, and as much as she wants, Opal can’t stand by and do nothing.
Now, her grandfather’s angry that she’s involved, the inn’s ghosts are ranting and sweeping down the halls, and Opal sort of snitched on the auto parts store owner, making her mad, too. But, Opal has her friends, her magic, and a crazy old psychic as a new roommate to help her solve the mystery. She hopes.

Wicked witches have more fun—especially when crushing their enemies.
Brooms. Doom. Gloom. There’s no sweeping this wicked witch under the rug. She’s ready to solve a mystery.
While working at her first job as a teacher at Encantado Charter Academy, Vega Bloodmire crashes her broom in the Morty Realm, nearly exposing the world of magic and witches that she belongs to. Vega knows the incident isn’t her fault and someone sabotaged her—though she can’t guess why. As a result of this accident, Vega loses her license to fly.
How is a wicked witch schoolteacher supposed to focus on teaching when possessed brooms, remedial lessons in flyer-ed classes, and encounters with the Witchkin Council’s Department of Magical Violations are all getting in the way of doing her job?
As if all of this isn’t humiliating enough, Vega is unable to teach the flying class that she’d had her heart—and her wallet—set on. If she doesn’t get her license back, prove she is capable of flying, and competent enough to teach Flyer’s Education—rather than taking it—she’s out of work and going to be forced to move back in with her parents.
As far as Vega is concerned, there’s no fate worse than that. She’s going to need to track down the saboteur in order to prove her innocence and ensure she gets to teach that class she’s perfect for.
What Vega doesn’t realize is that an injustice far deeper than a single possessed broom is afoot. It’s going to take someone with cunning, skills in manipulation, and better bargaining skills than a haggler at a Black Friday Sale in order to solve her problems—and the school’s.
Unfortunately for her enemies, she possesses all those skills.
Vega is going to need to find the true criminal in order to save her reputation—and her life.
Enjoy this spin-off series from the world of Womby’s School for Wayward Witches. This book starts with Vega Bloodmire’s life before working at Womby’s when she was a new and inexperienced teacher at Encantado Charter Academy. Ghouls Just Wanna Have Fun is the third book in the series of stand-alone novels. These mysteries are meant to be read in any order.
Clean, cozy, no sex or swearing, PG 13—perfectly fine for teens or grandmas who like paranormal mysteries at magical boarding academies.

Adam Hammond is at home with his wife, Addy, and son, Tate, when the end of the world begins. The sirens that blast from the city below the suburbs are an indication that something is wrong. They are a message that something has changed in the world and their lives will never be the same. Adam and his family watch live TV as a street reporter is murdered by something unseen and they know that whatever is hunting for flesh in those urban blocks will soon arrive in their neighborhood.
It is time to leave their home and head for the mountains, where hopefully, the creatures now roaming the Earth won’t follow. If they don’t escape the suburbs, soon, they will fall victim to the horrible monsters who are coming to their street.
Unfortunately, once they arrive at their destination in the Rockies, they realize the monsters have beaten them there, and they come to understand those creatures may not be the worst of their fears. While the monsters, who only come out at night, arrive at their door appearing to be other people, people they know and love, there is another threat brewing.
A nearby family, in a cabin like theirs, seems to be evil in their own way, even for people surviving the end of the world. As Adam will come to find, this family may pose a worse threat than the beasts who bury themselves in the ground during daylight.
When an awful incident arises, and Adam seeks justice, he comes to meet someone who needs his help desperately. This person needs him, and he needs her, but she may not be who he believes her to be, and she may present the greatest risk of all.
Night after night, the monsters come to his front door disguised as those he has lost, begging to be let in. They torture him but not nearly as much as the girl he has saved.
In the end, the secret she reveals will devastate him more than anything that came before.
Be prepared. Be ready for the coming dystopian horror and hope you can survive it all.
Adam’s ready. If everything goes his way, in the end, he’ll still be here. Will you?
