Witchy and the Beast

2017

He was a douchewaffle long before a spell made him a monster, but she might be just the witch to break his curse. Iola Pennybreaker had an awful relationship with her father, and that was before she found herself spelled to the middle of nowhere West Virginia. Apparently, her father was captured by a Beast… and can only be freed if she’ll take his place. Which sounded kinda like a fairytale, except she isn’t a huge fan of her father and less of a fan of being a prisoner, even if the prison in question is a mega-sweet castle. But there is something about the Beast, so she and her familiar decide to help the guy out. Makeover, anyone? She tries berries, spells, and a trip to her favorite hair magician, but Iola can’t seem to fix the biggest problem—Beast’s self-confidence. When they team up to save a trio of baby raccoons, she begins to notice something… Maybe she is just the witch to tame this particular Beast.

Author · 51 books

Saranna De Wylde has always been fascinated by things better left in the dark. She wrote her first story after watching The Exorcist at a slumber party. Since then, she’s published horror, romance and narrative nonfiction. Like all writers, Saranna has held a variety of jobs, from operations supervisor for an airline, to an assistant for a call girl, to a corrections officer. But like Hemingway said, “Once writing has become your major vice and greatest pleasure, only death can stop it.” So she traded in her cuffs for a full-time keyboard. She loves to hear from her readers. Saranna writes nonfiction under the name Sara Lunsford. Her memoir about her time as a corrections officer called Sweet Hell on Fire releases Nov 1 from Sourcebooks.

Virginia Nelson
Virginia Nelson
Author · 22 books
Virginia Nelson believed them when they said, “Write what you know.” Small town girl writing small town romance, her characters are as full of flaws, misunderstandings, and flat out mistakes as Virginia herself. When she’s not writing or plotting to take over the world, she likes to hang out with the greatest kids in history, play in the mud, drive far too fast, and scream at inanimate objects. Virginia likes knights in rusted and dinged up armor, heroes that snarl instead of croon, and heroines who can’t remember to say the right thing even with an author writing their dialogue. Her books are full of snark, sex, and random acts of ineptitude—not always in that order.
