Known as the wicked witch of Russian fairy tales, Baba Yaga is not one woman, but rather a title carried by a chosen few. They keep the balance of nature and guard the borders of our world, but don't make the mistake of crossing one…
Barbara Yager loves being one of the most powerful witches in the world, but sometimes she'd rather kick back in her enchanted Airstream with a beer in her hand than work out how to grant the requests of the worthy few who seek her out.
But when a man appears with the token of a family debt of honor, Barbara must drop everything to satisfy the promise owed by her predecessor—and she isn't above being a little wicked to make sure the debt is paid in full…

Older than she looks and powerful beyond measure, Barbara Yager no longer has much in common with the mortal life she left behind long ago. Posing as an herbalist and researcher, she travels the country with her faithful (mostly) dragon-turned-dog in an enchanted Airstream, fulfilling her duties as a Baba Yaga and avoiding any possibility of human attachment.
But when she is summoned to find a missing child, Barbara suddenly finds herself caught up in a web of deceit and an unexpected attraction to the charming but frustrating Sheriff Liam McClellan.
Now, as Barbara fights both human enemies and Otherworld creatures to save the lives of three innocent children, she discovers that her most difficult battle may be with her own heart…

Though she looks like a typical California surfer girl, Beka Yancy is in fact a powerful yet inexperienced witch who's struggling with her duties as a Baba Yaga. Luckily she has her faithful dragon-turned-dog for moral support, especially when faced with her biggest job yet…
A mysterious toxin is driving the Selkie and Mer from their homes deep in the trenches of Monterey Bay. To investigate, Beka buys her way onto the boat of Marcus Dermott, a battle-scarred former U.S. Marine, and his ailing fisherman father.
While diving for clues, Beka drives Marcus crazy with her flaky New Age ideas and dazzling blue eyes. She thinks he's rigid and cranky (and way too attractive). Meanwhile, a charming Selkie prince has plans that include Beka. Only by trusting her powers can Beka save the underwater races, pick the right man, and choose the path she'll follow for the rest of her life…

Having triumphed over a powerful enemy and ended up with both a wonderful guy—Sheriff Liam McClellan—and an adorable adopted daughter to raise as a Baba Yaga, Barbara Yager is ready to welcome her happily ever after.
But first she must bring Liam to the Otherworld and get the Queen's permission to marry him. The Queen, however, is not so easily persuaded. She gives them three impossible tasks to complete in two weeks' time—and if they fail Barbara will have to watch Liam slowly age and die like all humans, and kiss her happily ever after good-bye forever.

When fiery tempered Baba Yaga Bella Young is called to discover to discover who's setting magical fires throughout Wyoming's Black Hills, she puts aside her loner ways and begins working closely with former Hotshots firefighter Sam Corbett—and falling hard for his quiet strength and charm.
Sam may bear the scars of his past, but Bella can see beyond them and would do anything to help him heal. Only before she can rescue her Prince Charming, she'll have to overcome the mysterious foe setting the forest fires—a truly wicked witch who wields as much power and even more anger than Bella…
From Goodreads:
Jazz, the powerfully magical teen first introduced in Wickedly Powerful, is now being trained as a Baba Yaga—and she's determined to free the Broken Riders herself.
Jazz had a rough life before meeting her guardian, and she knows she's lucky that Bella is training her to be a Baba Yaga. But the gifted young witch is frustrated by the slow pace of her lessons. Jazz knows she's capable of even greater magic, and she wants nothing more than to find a spell that will give the Riders back the immortality they lost.
With the reluctant assistance of Bella's dragon-turned-cat Koshka, Jazz travels to the Otherworld to get the necessary ingredients to perform the spell. A willful young witch, dangerous magic, and one powerful wish—what could possibly go wrong?
My Review:
Oh, wow, these books were just so fantastic! I just devoured them, like, a book in the morning, sleep, and a book in the evening, rinse and repeat that I finished this series in 2 days, and then the first 2 books in the spin off series that 2nd day and the 3rd! They were just so freaking good!
The whole world of the Baba Yaga, was so darned interesting! I was so captivated by it, and I enjoyed each lady who was a Baba, because they were totally different, from kick ass Barbara, sweet Beka, and fierce Bella! They were amazing characters!
The story flowed from one book to another, and while the mysteries are pretty self-contained, there is some overlap, because of the Riders, and that they are in the same world, and an overarching plot. Because some Baba's don't want to retire!
I loved that there were romances, because these ladies have basically only had each other and their companion dragons. Things have changed since they traveled in pestle, and that's been updated, so why shouldn't this be, too? I'm glad that they found these guys that they can partner with so well!
I just was taken in by this series, it was so freaking amazing and wonderful! Loved them!
