The New Girl is the second book in the Juniper Springs Mystery Series by A.J. Rivers. Heartbroken and ready for a new beginning, Carrie Sweet drives to Juniper Springs for a fresh start and a job as a journalist. Her journey quickly takes a turn when she’s stranded on the roadside. A handsome stranger offers help, but wary and jaded, Carrie assumes the worst and treats him like a threat.
To her horror, the stranger turns out to be her new boss, Ryan. As Carrie settles into life in the charming town, she finds herself drawn to Ryan despite their awkward start. But danger is close behind. Someone is watching her, and their obsession is growing. With the help of local PI and lawyer Avery Hart, Carrie dives into an investigation that uncovers more than she ever expected. Amid the suspense, she and Ryan are swept up in romance, danger, and revelations that could change everything.
The Spell Book Society Series by Nikki Chartier begins with Love Spelled. When popular girl Sofia demands a love-spelled cupcake for star athlete Grayson Nightshade, Poppy hesitates. Love spells are forbidden in her family’s bakery, and so is her secret crush on Grayson. Still, helping Sofia could earn her some much-needed popularity points. The plan is simple: Poppy casts the spell, Sofia gives Grayson the cupcake, and he falls for Sofia. But the spell backfires. Grayson falls for Poppy instead. To fix it, Poppy agrees to fake-date him and talk her up. Yet the more time they spend together, the more real it feels. When the magic fades, hearts may break for real.
Moon Lake Magic is the ninth book in the Magic in Moon Lake Series by Lucia Kuhl. In Moon Lake, the biscuits are warm, the cats are nosy, and the dead never rest for long.

A strange dream list starts predicting more deaths, and something sinister stirs beneath the town’s cozy charm. Long-buried secrets come to light. People begin to vanish. Even the cats are on edge. Monique and a group of unlikely allies must uncover the truth behind the magic, betrayal, and dark force haunting Moon Lake. If they fail, the town could lose far more than its quiet charm.
