Swamp & Circumstance: Harmony Glen (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781069437792)

Pining and swooning over his dream girl for years...

Phineas loves his life in Harmony Glen, even though he technically lives in the outskirts of town in a swamp he owns. It's been his safe haven since he was orphaned when outsiders who were not receptive to monsters killed his parents.

That's why he loves Harmony Glen so much. Residents there adopted him, and he's so thankful for all his friends, but there's one who has been on his mind for years. He's been hopelessly in love with his best friend's sister Pearl for a long time. The problem is, though all he wants to do is give her the world and keep her safe, he has nothing to offer.

He couldn't keep his parents safe, but he won't let anything happen to Pearl.

Pearl, a rare female glashtyn, has led a sheltered life in Harmony Glen thanks to her overprotective brother. Only during a full moon does she shift into a unicorn. She's at risk if she leaves the safety of town in her unicorn form, which she always does when she shifts. Her unicorn side bolts every full moon, looking for what her heart truly desires, and that's Phineas.

She's not sure she can take a chance on love.

Would taking a chance with Phineas ruin their friendship? Phineas has become part of the family and she never wants him to feel like he needs to leave, but just as he yearns for her, she dreams of him.

After a year in college, she decides to pluck up the courage to take a chance on love and a happily ever after. Pearl plans to show Phineas he's everything she wants and more.

Warning: this book contains true love, friends to lovers, no angst, found family, and a very happily ever after. So, really, no reason to warn you at all.

Though they once lived in secret, "monsters" have inhabited the earth as long as humans. As technology advanced by leaps and bounds, the ability to remain hidden dwindled. Earth's nonhuman creatures faced a choice: allow themselves to be discovered, or step forward and introduce themselves. Either option could have ended badly for monsters and humans alike-and in some places, it did.

But not in Harmony Glen.

After The Great Revelation, Harmony Glen welcomed monsters with open arms. This small, lakeside town in Upstate New York is now home to humans and nonhumans! Integration has been so successful in Harmony Glen, the town even changed its motto to "Come for the harmony, stay for the happily ever after."

Welcome to Harmony Glen. We know you're going to love it here.

Each book in the Harmony Glen multi-author series is a standalone cozy romance with a happily ever after! The books can be enjoyed in any order.
