POSSESSING THE WITCH is my Harlequin Nocturne releasing April 1st! What a great book to release on April Fool’s Day. The second in my Dark Lord Series following THE WITCH’S INITIATION.
This story is another twist on Beauty and the Beast. Did you watch the television show Beauty and the Beast back in the late 80’s with Ron Pearlman and Linda Hamilton? I loved it! It was dark, edgy and full of romantic tension. I’ve given a different take on this story with the Chicago underground tunnels that were built back in the early 1900’s to deliver goods to merchants in the downtown area. It was not all they’d hoped it would be and soon the tunnels fell into disrepair and were shut off to the public.
Or were they?
In my world, the misfits and mutants found their way into the tunnels and made them home. My hero, Gryph Leone, is a shifter, raised in below Chicago. Given the best education by his adopted father, he learned to make a very good living despite his location.
Selene Chattox is one of five sisters who live in Chicago and help fight paranormal crime because they are gifted witches. Dive into their world and take a walk along the dangerous tunnels beneath the city of Chicago. You never know who or what you will find!

Amazon | Nook | Kobo
IBooksA spirit witch and a recluse unite to save their city
Gryph Leone keeps a low profile because he considers himself a freak of nature. But when his powerful senses detect a woman in distress, his lion takes over. Before he knows it, he’s in a losing battle with a wolf shifter. And then a beautiful woman with bewitching eyes and her own secrets finds him.
Selene Chattox didn’t know what—or who—she’d find when she followed her premonition to the river’s edge. When she discovers Gryph, the spirit witch brings the injured stranger home, determined to resist the intense desire he evokes in her. But as he heals, they know fate has brought them together as they track a ruthless killer through the tunnels of Chicago. And as their passion ignites, so does the danger…

Beauty and the Beast is probably my all time favorite paranormal TV series. I own a copy and just re-watched it a couple months ago. Love it. Was heart broken when Katheryn . . . *sigh* Consequently, I like the sound of this story. Question, it appears this is a book 4. Do I have to read the first three first? Ah yah! I signed up for your newsletter and actually peaked around the your web site. 😀 The underground of Chicago, ey? I love it!

Elle, I just finished reading Possessed by the Witch. I loved it! As I was reading it I was certain that the Beauty and the Beast TV show was on your mind when you wrote this. Reading your post above confirmed it. 🙂 I loved this TV show and was so sad when it ended.
To answer a question that Pansy asked – I haven’t read any of the others and I didn’t feel like I missed anything but I do want to go back and read the first one and also the ones that come next.
Thanks for such a great story.

I forgot to say that I’m already subscribed to your mailing list but I know that you already know that. 🙂
I stopped watching TV a few years ago in favor of reading so I don’t have a current favorite paranormal show and I haven’t seen any paranormal movies lately.

Hi Myla 🙂
Subscribed, I’ve been getting into a couple of new paranormal shows, Penny Dreadful, Grimm & Sleepy Hollow. I love the Victorian/Steampunkiness and the twists on the classic monsters in Penny Dreadful. I never know what’s going to happen next & I LOVE it. Grimm I love for the background of lesser known creatures (not always villains) ad the speculation of they among us . Sleepy Hollow ROCKS with Ichabod Crain as a hero trying to come to grips with modern day America and all the changes (I LOVE Ichabod’s rants about modern America, BUYING WATER! ) while preventing the Apocalypse.
