Doomed Cases
4 primary works
Book 1
A missing royal. A love triangle. Can Maxine crack the case before her heart is ripped in two?
Maxine Brodeur has spent the past year recovering from a devastating breakup with Prince Arthur -- the realm’s future king. She’s kept a low profile as a half-human/half-demon, spending her days running “Doomed Cases,” a private supernatural agency. After illegally revealing her powers to save a human girl from attack, she gets an ominous letter bearing the royal seal.
Rather than being punished, Maxine is hired to find the young, kidnapped Prince George. Back in the secretive life of the royals, she must learn to work alongside sexy detective Zachary Quinton. Her new partner has no respect for the rules, and her ex-lover Arthur is doing everything he can to win her back.
Will Maxine find the missing prince quickly or will she cause another royal scandal in the process?
Demonic Triangle is a paranormal romance with a dash of suspense. If you like witty dialogue, strong but flawed female leads, and dramatic love triangles, then you’ll love the first instalment in the Doomed Cases series by Joanna Mazurkiewicz.
Book 2

She is hired by an old friend Ronan to track down his son The Nameless Thief, a man that has managed to steal a private collection of royal letters that were left in Ronan's possession.
Unfortunately this only Royal correspondence that Nameless took from his father, he also obtained a letter that Max had written to Arthur, in which she revealed the whole truth about her disappearance from two years ago. The letter that she didn't even know existed.
From then on Max is sucked back into royal affairs, and must get to Nameless before he realises what he has in his possession.
