Belong to the Night
by Shelly Laurenston
2009
This anthology gathers three paranormal romances about witches and shifters facing deadly threats. Shelly Laurenston’s story pairs a volatile witch with a wolf mayor in a small Southern town, blending pack politics, magic, and enemies to lovers heat.
My Kind of Town
by Shelly Laurenston
2007
Long Island witch Emma Luchessi likes her life quiet and beige. A wrong turn strands her in Smithville, North Carolina, where the sheriff worries about brawling shifters, not traffic. Kyle Treharne’s easy charm and the town’s dangers quickly ruin Emma’s plans for boring.
Series background & context
The Long Island Coven stories slide a coven of modern witches into the same rowdy shifter world that powers Shelly Laurenston’s Pride and Magnus Pack books. Instead of starting with wolves on motorcycles, these tales begin with women from Long Island who only want quiet, controlled lives and end up in the middle of supernatural trouble.
In My Kind of Town, Emma Luchessi takes a wrong turn off a southern highway and finds herself in Smithville, a coastal North Carolina town where the local arguments involve big cats fighting with wolves and bears fighting over honey. Emma is a witch who prefers beige, safe choices, and a life where nothing unexpected happens. Kyle Treharne is the town sheriff, a laid back big cat shifter who spends his days breaking up squabbles between predators and trying to keep the peace.
Emma’s detour is not an accident. Someone has pulled her toward Smithville, and the town’s troubles quickly tangle with her own magic. Kyle is determined to help, partly because it is his job and partly because the anxious, stubborn New Yorker fascinates him. The story feels like a bridge between a small town witch romance and the louder, more chaotic shifter books that surround it.
The series also includes Laurenston’s novella The Wolf, the Witch, and Her Lack of Wardrobe from Belong to the Night. That story pairs Jamie Meacham, a witch barely in control of her powers, with Tully Smith, a wolf shifter mayor trying to protect his territory and his people. Their romance plays out against a threat to the town and hints at the wider politics of witches and shifters sharing space.
Taken together, the Long Island Coven pieces show how witches fit into the larger universe. The tone mixes magical mishaps, small town gossip, and the kind of over the top pack drama that fans expect from Laurenston. You can read these stories on their own if you want a lighter touch of magic, or tuck them into a full reread of the shifterverse for extra context on Smithville and its neighboring packs.
