The Melungeon Witch

(Melungeon Witch Story #1)

​Appalachia's mysterious Melungeons—with their olive skin, dark hair and blue eyes—are ostracized and feared, so when a local girl is found murdered after meeting with Melungeon healer Cephea Collins, suspicion falls on Cephea. It's up to local Sheriff Daniel Praeger to uncover the truth, but his investigation may end up digging a little too close to home when he finds himself falling for the main suspect, and his beliefs about science and witchcraft are turned upside down.

Melungeon Witch's Scandal

(Melungeon Witch Stories #5)

​Melungeon healer Cephea Collins finds herself falling for Sheriff Daniel Praeger, but those feelings are put to the test when he asks her help on a case involving the murder of his ex-girlfriend's brother. As the ex makes it clear she wants to rekindle her relationship with Daniel, Cephea learns that love can be as deadly as any of the poultices and poisons she uses in her craft.

 

​When Sheriff Daniel Praeger's three-year-old son finds a "sleeping man" in the woods, Daniel realizes the man has been murdered—and was himself accused of murdering his own wife a year ago. With the dead man's uncooperative family and Daniel's ex turning up the heat, can Daniel keep his son and Cephea safe while sorting out his own conflicted emotions?

​A mysterious stranger is found with a bag of gold—and shot with a poisoned arrow. When a man and woman arrive in town with claims the gold was stolen, Sheriff Daniel Praeger must uncover the truth while Melungeon healer Cephea Collins tends to the wounded and unconscious victim. Will the growing feelings between Daniel and Cephea help solve the puzzle or drive them further apart?

​When a single, pregnant woman is attacked, Melungeon healer Cephea Collins comes to her defense and her aid. After all, Cephea herself knows a thing or two about being an outcast in society. As Sheriff Daniel Praeger's ex-wife makes a last-ditch attempt to drive Daniel and Cephea apart, Cephea begins to wonder if there will be a happy ending for anyone.
