Valentine's Day could be the most dangerous time of the year if an angry Cupid is the hit man hunting you down. Bram Farrell, paranormal PI, has been yanked from the pages of the novel. His author and creator brought him into real-world Detroit to do a job for her, but the job went south, and the real-world Detroit is as loaded with monsters and magical beings as the pages of her books were. And they are all out to get Bram and exact some otherworldly revenge on him. Most guys wouldn't mind that it's raining females, some expected, some surprises, one he could do without. And then there is his new secretary, Naomi, with who he's falling in love. Keeping her alive-and himself-is going to be tricky. Outrunning an alchemist, a vampire, and a witch is going to take more than cutting wit. Luckily, this paranormal Sam Spade has some resources besides his dry sense of humor. His dachshund Hellhound is with him and his magic is coming back. This should be helpful considering someone has put a hit out on him. There's a lot on Bram's plate this February. The question is, will he live through it this time?

Magic slinging PI Bram Farrell is roped into test flying a...well, a chicken. A chicken that attracts the attention of a local flock of topless hussy harpies who want it for themselves. So, Bram makes them a deal. They leave the chicken be, and he'll look into the murder of one of their cousins - which means hunt, find and kill the perp usually. He simply hopes he's not the one being hunted, found and killed.If lethal doses of sarcasm don't kill a perp, then magic will just have to do.The Raven Tales prequel novellas have one thing different from the forthcoming Raven Tales novels -- they take place in a different Detroit, Michigan than the novels do. In the prequels, Bram is the lone investigator for Raven Investigations and has a lot more magic at his command than he does in the novels at first. Reason? In the prequels he's still in Fictionland Detroit. In the Novels he's crossed into the "real" world, though the same perps still need to be taken down. The novels arrive in 2019, but the prequels will continue too and be supplimented by other novellas as "between the books" adventures also take place.J.B.

When it comes reputation, a PI needs to have a good one. Not a silly one. Not a bad one. Unfortunately for Bram Farrell, aka The Raven, a magic using investigator taking miscreants of various nonhuman genus down in Detroit, his is about to suffer. On two fronts.Bram thought being roped into test flying a creation his former professor, Nick Flammel, dreamed up - one that has the wings of a stingray, the mane and tale of a horse, spits fire like a dragon, but is basically a fluffy yellow chicken headed toward T-Rex proportions was going to do for him. Both his reputation and...well, a fall off the back of a chicken who actually could fly wouldn't be good either.Then he met the harpies and discovered his reputation had taken a much more major hit. Garden variety humans had watched him take down a harpy while she was in human form.Except it hadn't been him!Finding, then visiting justice on the guy who is wearing his face and using his name jets to the top of Bram's self-preservation list. The question is, which one of them will still be standing when the confrontation is over: Bram himself or the Mock Raven?Warning: Heavy doses of sarcasm! But if that doesn't take down a perp, well, there's always magic to fall back on.This is the second in a series of prequel novellas in the Raven Tales urban fantasy mystery series.

DANE is a pseudonym of a multi-published, multi-genre novelist who goes by many names. Not because she is in Witness Protection. Really not in Witness Protection. Really. She may start hiding from citizens of Detroit since her Raven Tales urban fantasy comedic mysteries have populated their fair city with neighbors who might be supernatural, paranormal or legendary beasts...or not so beasts...but probably ARE beasts. They could be hungry, too. She has also tampered with the lore of the Claus family, you know the one at the North Pole, and hopes this does not land her on the Naughty List, even if Nick Claus has landed on it frequently himself.
