Of Envy and Empaths

Sophie:

No one ever said supernatural creatures were beloved. But for the last few centuries, people didn't believe we existed. We more or less behaved ourselves under the radar, and things were fine.

Until the Great Unmasking. Thanks to viral videos, we supernaturals are now being exposed. Mobs of frightened citizens are attacking previously secret shifters, vampires, trolls, witches like me, and psychics like Mom-who is especially vulnerable because she's been possessed by an ancient goddess staging a comeback tour.

I have a side hustle as the enforcer for the supernatural guilds. But when I discover I'm also an empath, I don't have the heart to do it anymore. In fact, my heart is causing heaps of trouble with a certain vampire I'm supposed to destroy.

I need to focus on protecting Mom. And let me tell you, nothing is as complex as a daughter-mother relationship. Especially when the supernatural is involved.

Darla:

I never asked to be the human vessel of the earth-mother goddess, Danu. Yet, she is slowly taking me over, worrying my family. And I'm stuck in the middle between the Fae, who want me to enlist Danu's help in finding a mysterious ingredient for their magic, and the Elves, who want me to stop the Fae. All I really want to do is run our historic inn.

The Goddess's Daughter urban fantasy trilogy is set in the same world of San Marcos as the midlife mystery thriller series The Memory Guild, but it can be enjoyed independently. There's a slow-burn romance and the language is clean. There is violence, but it is not graphic.
