Magical Midlife Conclave

Austin is done chasing shifters across the country, trying to prove his worth. This time, he's bringing them to him.

Together with Jessie, he's hosting a shifter conclave—the first gathering of its kind in years. The last one in recorded history ended in bloodshed. This time, however, they aren't just inviting shifters into their territory. Gargoyles and basajaunak have been called in as well.

With decades of grudges, rivalries, and power struggles converging in one place, the conclave is a disaster waiting to happen. And that's before the enemies determined to crush Austin and Jessie's growing alliance make their move.

Keeping the peace may be impossible. Surviving the gathering might be even harder. But if the conclave succeeds, it could reshape the future of the supernatural world forever. If it fails, history won't just repeat itself—it will be remembered as the day everything fell apart.
