I may not have much in this world, but I do have a plan: work hard, save every penny, get that college degree, and build a better life for myself. Getting involved with the guests of the hotel where I work would definitely derail me from that path. I have been specifically warned to keep away from the ones who stay in the top-floor suite—the best the hotel has to offer. That includes the mysterious man who hides his face and has some extraordinary things happening in his room. Before I know it, though, I am drawn to the mystery, to the man himself, and to the incredible world of magic that surrounds him. And when he asks for my help because of a strange affliction that apparently prevents him from using anything electronic, I agree. Soon, I learn the devastating truth about the curse that plagues him. With time running out, I need to find a way to break it before it takes from me the love I have just found.

This boxset includes: A Maze of Murder Belinda Drake is a witch with a passion for mysteries, an addiction to chocolate, and a penchant for keeping to herself. In her new life running a bookstore in the small mountain village of Blackthorn Springs, she’s got everything she needs, even if she is the world’s most incompetent witch. When her neighbor turns up dead, Belinda recognizes the Mortis Curse, one of the most evil spells known to witchkind, and the life she left behind starts knocking at her door. Now she must find the killer before her new found peaceful existence descends into a darkness she swore to turn her back on. A Mask of Chaos With her magic on the rise and business improving, life is finally looking shiny for Belinda Drake. Even if she can’t exactly figure out where she stands on the romance side of things. But when people in town start acting strangely, together with a string of strange robberies, Belinda begins to suspect a sinister force lurks beneath the peaceful surface of Blackthorn Springs. A Trial of Ghosts The whimsical mountain village of Blackthorn Springs is the perfect place for Belinda Drake to finally settle into a quiet, comfortable life filled with love, magic, books, and too much chocolate. But when people start turning up dead, the supernatural community of Blackthorn Springs faces the firing line, and the true nature of the seemingly peaceful town is revealed. A Wreath of Ruin Christmas in Blackthorn Springs means food, friends, and Belinda Drake's special brand of magical mayhem. Belinda Drake has big plans to make this the best Christmas ever for her and Conri, and she doesn’t want to use a single drop of her new magic to pull it off. When culinary catastrophe strikes, Belinda and Conri end up spending the holiday with Lila’s family, including Lila’s grandmother, who’s not at all like Lila had built her up to be. Is Gran just a little bit strange, or is something supernatural threatening Christmas? A Hex of Wolves Life is tricky for Belinda Drake, what with her nemesis, Rowan Jackfort back in town, and her bookstore closing in on financial ruin, but at least she still has her friends, her cantankerous feline familiar, and her boyfriend, Blackthorn Springs’ hottest non-practicing werewolf, Conri O’Farrell. But when a sexy werewolf woman turns up in town, Belinda’s life spirals out of control as she learns the man she has been happily spending her life with is not the man she thought he was. A Trick of Terror As much as Belinda Drake loves Halloween, the traditional Blackthorn Springs Scarecrow Festival is just too much for this witch. Besides, with her new and unwelcome magical powers to deal with, Belinda has enough worry without adding a town full of creepy scarecrows into the mix. But while Belinda tries to hide away from the festivities, trouble comes looking for her. A Coven of Demons As strange blizzards hold Blackthorn Springs in an icy grip, Belinda Drake can't shake the feeling that something isn't right, even beyond her usual world of witchy magical mayhem. With the arrival of a dangerous stranger, Belinda is thrown headlong into a war between two evil covens, both of them seeking the Serpent's Disc, the key to Belinda's power.

The stakes have never been higher. The fallout will shake the Hells, and through them, the Forgotten Realms. Before Farideh took a devil's pact, before she was Chosen by the god-king of the Hells—before any of this started—there was Bryseis Kakistos, the original Brimstone Angel and the first of Farideh's line. Now in these final moments, Bryseis Kakistos is back. But this time around, she will not help the king of Hells achieve godhood—instead, she’s going to kill him. All she needs is a little help from Farideh. By all accounts, Farideh should be happy to come to Bryseis’ aid. After all, who could object to killing the king of Hells? But things are far more complicated than they seem, and Farideh may not be as willing as Bryseis thinks . . . The Devil You Know is the sixth book in the Brimstone Angels series.
