Hooked on a Wolf

Book 1 · Ian Martyr & Lavender Heartley

Anyone who eats her food tells the truth. He has been joking his way past it for twenty-two years.

Lavender Heartley has been fired from four kitchens because her cooking makes people blurt the truth, and she can't turn it off. Her last chance is a job at The Fishery, run by Ian Martyr, the brother everyone loves and nobody worries about. He laughs off everything. He hasn't waded past his knees in the sea since the night his parents died. One bowl of her chowder and the jokes stop working.

Then a storm strands her at the lighthouse with its keeper, Henley Martyr, who says about forty words a day and has had cold hands since his light went out twenty-two years ago. There is one bed.

Cozy small-town paranormal romance. Open-door heat, three scenes per book, about 4 out of 5 on the spice scale. No cheating. Each book stands alone.

A man who chooses her

Out loud, in front of everyone, when he has never once taken anything for himself.

A loud Sunday table

Six big protective brothers, a roast, and somebody breaking a chair. There's always room for her.

Her "too much" is just right

Every heroine's wrong magic turns out to be the exact key to his lock.

A town that adopts you

It feeds you, gossips about you with love, and leaves the porch lights on for the full-moon run.

The Brothers of the Martyr Line

Meet the Brothers

Twenty-two years ago, something hungry rose out of the bay. Ray and Bonnie Martyr, the town's wardens, died sealing it, and each of their six sons lost his gift that night. Now the seal is wearing thin, and it fails at midsummer.

Painted clapboard · a working harbor · fog in the mornings

Welcome to Shoreline Cove

Wolves and witches have shared this coastal town for generations, and nobody outside the town limits talks about it.

Open the map of the Cove

The Fishery

Ian's place · Book 1

A dockside fish restaurant with a blue awning. The chalkboard rewrites itself when the catch changes.

Brown butter, lemon, the hiss of the fryer, gulls.

The Lighthouse

Henley's place · Book 2

A white tower on the north point with the keeper's cottage attached. The town sets its clocks by the lamp at dusk.

Lamp oil, cold iron, wind humming in the stairs.

The Shoreline Inn

Peg Dunmore's · Book 3

Yellow, three stories, wraparound porch. Room keys run warm when you're meant to stay. Peg always has a biscuit in her apron.

Cinnamon, lemon polish, the creaky third stair.

Wish Upon A Page

Winnie's shop · Book 4

A crooked little bookstore with a reading nook and Biscuit, the shop cat, who has bitten the mayor. The shelves rearrange overnight.

Old paper, bergamot tea, the bell on the door.

Martyr's Rest

The brothers

The big gray-shingle family house on the bluff. Sunday dinner, every week, no excuses.

Woodsmoke, coffee, six pairs of boots by the door.

Promise Falls

Kept by Gwen Salazar

The enchanted waterfall in the woods above town. Any promise made under it must be kept. It runs warm all winter.

Moss, mist on your skin, water that whispers.

The Howl & Hearth

The pack pub

Off the harbor. Where the brothers tease each other, throw darts, and occasionally fight.

Peat fire, spilled ale, darts.

Dock Market

Saturdays on the pier

The whole town turns out, and so does all the gossip.

Salt, coffee, everybody talking at once.

Everyday magic

  • Witches' porch lanterns burn the color of their mood.
  • The harbor bells ring on their own before bad weather.
  • On full-moon nights the whole town leaves its porch lights on for the pack run.
  • Clothes left folded on the dunes are none of your business.
  • When a wolf's mind is made up about someone, the town says his wolf's picked, and a ridiculous courting gift is sure to follow.
