Welcome to Halfling House by Victoria Vassallo What do you get when you have a renegade Greek Goddess, a fiery witch, a toddler dragon, a fae child, and a temperamental teenage bogeyman in one house? Chaos. Not literally, of course. Ellie – or more accurately, the Greek Goddess formerly known as Eleos – left the true embodiment of Chaos behind when she abandoned the Greek Pantheon for the mortal world. Spilt milk, giant sunflowers and random spot fires are just par for the course when you’re raising Halflings, the outcasts of the magickal world. Fortunately for Ellie, she has Clara – the first Halfling she adopted – to help navigate the thin line between the mortal and magickal worlds. A new Halfling’s arrival brings more challenges than expected when a legend from Ellie’s past emerges, determined to destroy the newborn. Trusting strangers is not in Ellie’s skillset, but even this immortal Goddess needs to learn a thing or two if she’s going to protect her own from those who would rather they didn’t exist. Follow Ellie and her brood as they navigate the everyday hassles of life, the extraordinary battles with the magickal, and uncover the mysteries of the town they call home, Briarmoor. This series is perfect for anyone who enjoys heartfelt and hilarious stories about found family, protective mama bears, diverse magic and creatures, slow-burn fade-to-black romance, and LGBTQIA+ representation.
