Accidentally Engaged (And Other Hazards of Being a Banshee)

There are so many hazards of being a banshee living among humans... like accidentally betrothing yourself to the guy next door...

When Jared rents out an apartment in paranormal-friendly Pine Ridge, the average human research assistant thinks the little New York town is a perfect fit for him. That might change when Jared discovers he’s a “sensitive,” a non-supernatural being who can occasionally sense the otherworldly.

Chloe O’Neill, a half-banshee who owns Chloe’s Curiosities, doesn’t mind living surrounded by humans, but she’s thrilled when her new next-door neighbor plans to be away over Spring Break. It’s not often a banshee can really let go without endangering mortals, so of course she takes the chance to use the glorious singing voice she has to keep hidden.

Imagine her surprise when her traditional banshee betrothal song is overheard—but not by the handsome fae husband she hopes to one day enchant—but by a very confused Jared who had his plans cancelled at the last minute!

Once a banshee is betrothed, there are only two options to break off the engagement: death or denial. Since Chloe won’t be swinging a blade anytime soon, she’s counting on Jared to reject her mistaken offer.

Too bad Jared thinks his life is finally turning around. New job, new city, new life…and maybe a new wife?

Accidentally Engaged (And Other Hazards of Being a Banshee) is a short, steamy standalone in the Pine Ridge Universe.
