Her gun was his wake-up call...until her courage stole his heart. In the shattered world that followed the Dying, djinn warrior Omar al-Qadir has only one goal: to eradicate the few humans left. Then he’s shot by lone survivor Olivia Raskin while investigating her isolated ranch. He should kill the dark-haired beauty on sight, but something in her defiant green eyes speaks to a part of his soul he’s done his best to ignore. Instead of ending her life, Omar instead becomes Olivia’s protector, dedicated to keeping her safe from the ruthless outlaw djinn Khalim al-Usar, whose depravities know no bounds. As they’re hunted from one refuge to another, Omar finds unexpected sanctuary in Olivia’s quiet strength and selfless compassion, a tenacious light in the darkness he’s immersed himself in for too long. With their latest haven engulfed in Khalim’s fury, Omar is faced with a choice — cling to the hatreds of the past, or embrace his growing love for the human woman who has reawakened his humanity. To protect her, he’ll have to become the one thing he loathes — a djinn bound to a human Chosen. Torn between duty and desire, Omar must wage the biggest battle of all — against his own fears and prejudices — to claim the soulmate who has released him from the shackles of his own making.

Something’s got a spaniel familiar’s tongue…and it isn’t a cat. Charity Hughes is the first witch in more than a century to possess a gift like hers. She’s a “familiar whisperer” — someone who can communicate with other witches’ troubled familiars and resolve their problems. When Darla Fitzgerald, an influential but abrasive witch, brings in her familiar, Milo, Charity runs into a barrier she’s never before encountered. The spaniel isn’t talking. At all. And when a potion to reveal Milo’s thoughts doesn’t work, Charity calls Darla to get more information...only to learn the woman has been found dead. But that’s not the weird part. Though familiars always pass with their witches, Milo is hale and hearty. After something — or someone — attacks the dog, Charity desperately calls local vet (and secret crush) Noah Jenkins for help. Now Charity is walking a double tightrope: How to manage her attraction to Noah without revealing the world of witches right under his nose...while trying to figure out who would go to any lengths — including dognapping — to ensure Milo stays silent as the grave.

Ex marks the murder scene…or does it? New relationships can be fraught with emotional missteps. Charity Hughes’s awkward encounter with Shelby Howard, Noah Jenkins’s ex, at his front door certainly qualifies, but as they’re clearing up that sort-of-minor misunderstanding, a new challenge enters Charity’s shop. A witch’s cat familiar pining for the impossible — kittens of her own. The kitty conundrum takes a back seat when a frantic Shelby calls with a rather pointed problem. An ex-fiancé dead on her living room floor, run through with an antique sword. Now the prime suspect, Shelby begs Charity for help to prove her innocence. There’s just one problem. Using magic to solve the case risks outing her as a witch to the public...including Noah. But Charity brings all her somewhat-inconsistent abilities to bear in the investigation, even calling on Milo, the spaniel familiar, to nose around. But it’s the Tarot that cuts through the static toward a culprit who's definitely not an ex-anything. It's someone who opens a whole new kit and caboodle of lies. Note: Cauldrons and Cats is Book 2 in USA Today bestselling author Christine Pope’s “Familiar Spirits” series. Contains a cat familiar with mommy fever, a doggo familiar pining for his feline friend, and a killer who does it old school — up close and personal.
