Art is my sole purpose in life. I paint memories, I paint emotion, I paint souls. The problem is, even with all of these things, I feel like my art lacks depth. My pieces may be beautiful, but what are they really displaying?
What I need is a muse—the one who will own my heart, body, and mind.
I’ve travelled the world, somehow ending up in Harmony Glen, a town where monsters and humans live in harmony. My muse is here somewhere. I can feel it.
Just when I think I’ve found her, she disappears—literally. I spot her in the shadows of the forest, only to think I’m losing my mind when I blink and she’s gone.
When I stumble across her in the town, relief hits me. Not only is she
real, she’s really gorgeous. There’s only one problem—she wants nothing to do with me.
Somehow, I’ve got to get through to her, or I may lose more than just my muse.

As a shadow demon, I’ve struggled to find my place in this world. Monsters joining society is one thing, but even monsters judge me on occasion. Not in Harmony Glen, though. Everyone here has accepted that I’m not the monster I used to be.
That’s why I call it home.
Everything is normal and fine until I’m drawn to the forest—to a
man, no less. His presence awakens something deep within me. An instinct that is both exhilarating and frightening…more so frightening, though.
I don’t want to lose myself to the demon urges I’ve pushed away for this long.
I’ve worked hard to build a life here, to forget the things I used to do. Getting close to someone will inevitably lead to revealing and reliving memories I’d rather forget. But since he arrived and I’ve gotten to know him, I feel like I’m really
living for the first time.
Ignoring all these intense emotions will be for the best, even if it means pushing away the man who might have the key to my heart…right?

* * * *

Though they once lived in secret, ‘monsters’ have inhabited the earth as long as humans. As technology advanced by leaps and bounds, the ability to remain hidden dwindled. Earth’s nonhuman creatures faced a choice: allow themselves to be discovered, or step forward and introduce themselves. Either option could have ended badly for monsters and humans alike—and in some places, it did.

But not in Harmony Glen.

After
The Great Revelation, Harmony Glen welcomed monsters with open arms. This small, lakeside town in Upstate New York is now home to humans and nonhumans! Integration has been so successful in Harmony Glen, the town even changed its motto to ‘Come for the harmony, stay for the happily ever after.’

Welcome to Harmony Glen. We know you’re going to love it here.

Each book in the Harmony Glen multi-author series is a standalone cozy romance with a happily ever after! The books can be enjoyed in any order.
