Kraken the Case

Half kraken, half fae Environmental Police Agency enforcer Iolani Lionheart has everything a person could ever want—looks, money, family connections, power, more degrees and certifications than she can count…. Too bad that's all anyone ever wants her for. Io is a fling, a means to an end, an asset to be used and tossed aside. Too intimidating, too arrogant and eccentric, she's not someone you keep. But what her clingy kraken and indulgent fae natures want more than anything is a mate (or mates) to hoard.

After her most recent power-hungry lover betrays her, Iolani is fed up and desperate to get away. An ocean-side investigation in Florida sounds like a great way to get her mind off her moping and get some much-needed saltwater rest and relaxation. She might even find a fun partner to help her forget the latest disaster of a relationship. But of course, nothing is that easy.

The simple pollution case she's investigating turns out to be more complicated that she had hoped, one of her exes returns to haunt her, and the cute water nymph barista she's been wooing might be unable to accept Io's fluid gender and intimidating family—just like so many others before her.

Would anyone blame her if Io just started eating everyone who pissed her off?

The Kraken's Cult series takes place in the same universe as the Gesa's Menagerie and Gods and Demons series, but with a new cast of characters. This series takes place thirty years after the events in Gods and Demons, in a world where supes are (mostly) integrated with human society. While reading the previous series might give you a deeper experience or insight into side characters, Kraken's Cult is also able to be read as a standalone series.

Author's Notes

*Kraken's Cult books are longer novellas to shorter novels (40,000-50,000+) words. They may or may not include cliff-hangers. Typically, one plot thread will be resolved or "resolved for now," while others may continue to build throughout the series. There's none of that "book that ends abruptly in the middle and I'm gonna call it a novella" stuff.

*Includes mentions of past trauma, including but not limited to: implied threat of sexual abuse as a minor, bullying, violence, emotional trauma.

*So much swearing. Seriously.

*Explicit sex with varying levels of heat and kink possible.

*Series contains M/F, F/F, M/M, MMMMFF romance.

*Characters with gender fluidity, non-binary/intersex characters, gender bending/gender swap, gray ace, and any other orientation you can think of may appear in this series.

*Let's face it, you're thinking about reading a book with a kraken main character. There may be tentacles put to use in ways that make some people uncomfortable. It's just to be expected.
