• Fated match

• Medium-fast burn

• Suspense/thriller element

• HEA

• Note: This book is a standalone in an interconnected series. The story overlaps with portions of Dream Weaver, and those wishing to avoid spoilers may want to read Once Upon a Dream and Dream Weaver first.

This story also overlaps with the author’s Mystic Beach Mysteries contemporary fantasy series and includes potential spoilers for the first book in that series, Safe Harbour (due out in early 2023). But that book’s story will be reshuffled in subsequent books, so it is not necessary to read Safe Harbour before Smoke on the Water, or at all. (But once you read Smoke on the Water, you may really want to read Safe Harbour to get answers to its mysteries.)
