C.D. Gorri

He’s been looking for someone to hold on to. She’s been waiting for the right guy. This Jersey Devil has a jaded past. Too many loveless affairs, sleazy backroom deals, and an overall loss of his love for life has led Maximillian Leeds to one conclusion. He needs a change. What could be more different for a city slicker than buying a ranch in Northern New Jersey? There’s just one problem. He has no idea how to run a farm/ranch/thing. What’s he even supposed to do on a horse? An announcement in a supernatural newsletter gets him a misfit group of lone Shifters that all have one thing in common. They each need an anchor to settle their beasts. Good thing the Motley Crewd Ranch is fully insured. Thinking he's made a big mistake, Max changes his tune when he meets his fated mate at the Devil’s Food Bakery. The pouty-lipped maker of decadent delights makes his mouth water. Can this Jersey Devil convince the curvy baker to be his?

Motley Crewed Shifters

Penny’s home healing after popping out two of the cutest, chubbiest babies this side of the Appalachians, but she still managed to bark orders at us from her perch on the couch like the bakery boss queen she is. 


“Keep Max away for at least two hours,” she’d insisted, waving a spatula like a scepter as Avery and I nodded solemnly like good little soldiers. 


Apparently, Max’s contract with his grandma—the original Devil in the Jersey Devil’s family tree—requires him to log actual labor hours on the ranch during sanctioned community events or risk losing access to the property and the ranch's resources. 


And since Max gave all the Crew a stake in the land, everyone is shall we say highly invested in keeping those hours logged and the matriarch appeased. 


“But Penny might need something,” Max starts as we pass him at the rodeo staging area, his Devilishly red worry lines already in full formation.
