Alex discovers she is heir to a goddess's creation ... and the goddess needs her help to save it.
When a Crossroads Keeper dies, Alex inherits a legacy in a supernatural world she never knew existed. A surprise fireside chat with the goddess Hecate awakens Alex's magic and binds her to a Crossroads as its Keeper.
The wily goddess paints a rosy picture of Alex's new life, explaining that her oath-bound Keeper duties are merely those of a supernatural traffic cop. She's in charge of overseeing the comings and goings of the gods, supernaturals, and even ghosts who use her Crossroads to travel the ley lines. While the work sounds pretty tame, Alex quickly discovers that being a Crossroads Keeper is more of a learn fast or die kind of job.
When nightmares powerful enough to kill plague her dreams and undead creatures from the Underworld use the Crossroads to bring chaos to her community, Alex realizes she must put her newly inherited Keeper powers to the test ...or die trying.
Aided by her magical Familiar, a feisty poodle with good looks and a bad attitude, and Conor, a too-sexy Hellhound Barghest shifter, plus a posse full of quirky supernaturals, Alex takes the fight to the Underworld, where she and her team must defeat a dark goddess and end her plans for world chaos.
Mythical Greek gods, quirky supernatural creatures, a newbie Crossroads Keeper, and a sassy, snarky ... and magical pink-eared poodle battle the forces of chaos in this urban fantasy series filled with adventure, humor, a smidge of romance, and newfound family ties.
NOTE: This book is the first in The Crossroads Keeper series. Greek gods of myth and legend mingle with the supernatural creatures of urban fantasy in this modern tale filled with danger, humor, and family ties. It contains mature themes and includes swearing and some violence.
