Tarker's Hollow

Tasha Black · 6 series · 15 novels · 4 novellas · 1 collection · 2014–2017

The moon comes up over a quiet Pennsylvania college town, and beneath the ivy and the coffee shops something older is running the woods. Welcome to Tarker's Hollow — where the campus has a pack, the pack has a throne worth killing for, and the new girl in town is about to learn that the wolf who keeps finding her isn't a stray. This is Tasha Black's shared small-town world, told in the serialized, episode-by-episode style she made her name on: steamy fated-mate romance braided through a supernatural community of shifters, witches, warlocks, and the occasional ghost, where every love story doubles as a struggle for control of the pack. The Hollow spans a handful of connected arcs — Curse of the Alpha, Fate of the Alpha, Heir to the Alpha, the companion 300 Moons stories, and the standalone Tales from Tarker's Hollow — each following new hearts pulled into the same tangled bloodline of secrets. Expect heat, cliffhangers, and the ache of duty warring with desire. Newcomers should start where the moon first rises: Curse of the Alpha, then Fate and Heir in turn. The pack is waiting.
