In a world grappling with a climate crisis, a shrinking
population and dwindling resources on Earth, billionaire Ezra Graff has founded
StarZ. Its mission: begin the first Martian colony. The three hundred pioneers
of The Mars Man are the first to venture forth, forging a new civilization on
the rust-colored expanse of Mars. But when a massive solar flare cuts off all
communication, no one knows what is happening on Mars. The only one who does
know is the single occupant of an escape capsule that crashed into the Atlantic
ocean one year after the colony’s founding: Commander John Santo. To get the
full story, they must find him. With time running out until the second wave
launches for Mars, only Commander John Santo knows what is happening to the
first colony as they grapple with the harsh realities of their new home,
confronting the strange environment outside and the forces of evil within.
The Mars Man weaves a tapestry of adventure, intrigue, and
human resilience against the backdrop of a planet that challenges every notion
of survival. With richly developed characters and a narrative that balances
suspense and wonder, Anthony creates an immersive experience that will leave
readers hungry to keep reading.

When Felix Simms took over the position of mayor in the
small town of Havers-by-the-Sea, he had no idea he’d inherit so many problems.
Between the town of Fayet suing them for magical appropriation, a looming
budget crisis, and the butt cheek bandit’s reign of terror, the last thing
Felix needs is to be saddled with his delinquent sister’s urchins over the
holidays. And he certainly doesn’t have time to deal with Liam Montgomery
trying to make amends for suggesting the disastrous “polycule proposal” that broke
Felix’s heart senior year.
But Liam is desperate to prove he and Felix are meant to be
together. Unfortunately, Liam’s pending divorce has taken a nasty turn, and
juggling that and the Havers’s rumor mill is seriously affecting his mental
health.
Meanwhile, a new threat is rising, putting all of Havers in
danger. To face it, Felix and Liam have to put their differences aside. Because
if they can’t, it’s not just the town that’s in jeopardy, it’s everyone they
love, and Jena and Chase will be the first to fall.

saying:
If you want a romance with family drama and magic then
this is the book to read. – Sandra, Goodreads
Weres and Warlocks was everything I hoped it would be. My
sweet baby Felix finally got his happily ever after after all, not that there
wasn't some bumps along the way.
Such a great little holiday read. It has a little bit of everything in it. Some
spice, some yearning, a little bit of magic, found family, and I love a good
animal sidekick. I stayed up until 2am this morning to finish it because I
couldn't go another day without knowing how it ends.
-In a world of ink, Goodreads
I highly recommend reading this, especially if you like
magic/paranormal books – Kerry Batchelor
When witch Jena
Seymore returns home to Havers-by-the-Sea to care for her dying aunt, old town
politics and prejudices are rekindled. Between the local Westside Pack’s
vendetta against her family and the coven pressuring Jena to become guardian of
the magical node outside of town, she has enough problems without adding Chase
Montgomery to the mix. Especially after he broke her heart by starting the
devastating rumor that sent Jena running from town in the first place.
But Chase has
plenty of problems of his own, and how to make amends with Jena and win her
heart is at the top of the list. Unbeknownst to his pack, Jena is his fated
mate, and after her leaving town the first time almost killed him, he’s not
letting her get away again—no matter what the backlash might be.
And meanwhile, the
node is turning wild, jeopardizing Havers-by-the Sea's existence as tensions
threaten to tear it apart from within. Deep-seated small town secrets could
hold the key to its future—but only if they’re discovered before Samhain, when
the blue moon rises.

“I loved this
story! It has everything I like in a good book, angst, anger, laughter, tears,
fun, heat, love, loyal best friend, quirky side characters and an HEA. It
doesn’t get any better than that. The storyline is solid, engaging, the world
building is multi-dimensional and once you start you won’t want to put it
down.” - @sunshinewhispers
“Wow, what a
cracking book this is. Twists, turns and lots of magic so what’s not to like. I
couldn’t put it down till I’d finished it, I was completely engrossed. I loved
it.” - @sbanacek
“I started
reading this book at 9pm and read straight through to 4am. … FOUR. A. M. Crazy,
right?! Let me tell you, this book had me hooked from the start with its humor,
drama, character chemistry, character personalities, drama, romance, banter,
action, and spice. ‘Weres and Witchery’ is among one of the best escapes I’ve
had in a while.” - @Morally_Gray_Nola

(from the short story, “Hands Clean: Afterburner”)
Perry, as he was better known, stood on a grassy hill,
overlooking the expanse of the beach and the churning waves just past sunset.
Warm fur rubbing against his ankles reminded him he wasn’t alone, and he looked
down with a gentle smile. A black cat weaved her away around his legs, purring
loudly and looking up at him expectantly.
“Calling you “Cat” sounds straight ridiculous, but you
refuse to tell me your name.”
The cat meowed and he chuckled. “Fine. Just “Cat”, it is.”
He lifted her into his arms and rubbed noses. “It’s not often I ask animals to
do my dirty work, so I thank you and promise to feed you.” Perry locked eyes
with the cat and spoke softly in her mind. “Do you remember the plan? Are you
ready to strike? When you get to the bar, be sure to give me a visual.”
At her reassuring purr, he put her down and let her run to
her destination. He kept his eyes trained on the huge wood door of the Blue
Rose bar, which stood several yards from his position on the beach hill. Cat
approached the bar’s entrance and sat on the walkway, patiently waiting, as she
licked a paw. Soon enough, the heavy door swung open, and a laughing couple
emerged from the bar. Cat darted inside the dimly lit front area and, within
seconds, gave him the visual he needed.
Perry almost immediately spotted his target, seated at a
table with a large man. She was unchanged, both in face and body, even after a
millennium.
