I have read Devil’s Bargain. I have been very curious about her bear shifter series. I have not read many paranormal books, but the shifters have been my favorites. I have only read J. Kenner under her other pen name, Julie Kenner. I have read all her Demon-Hunting Soccer Mom books and have her Blood Lily Chronicles set waiting to be read. Anna Argent is new to me.
