Romance
My best friend’s older brother has always kept me in the friend-zone. It doesn’t hurt my feelings when he ruffles my hair and puts on the protective brother act. And when he glowers at my recent ex who keeps sniffing around, it’s because he cares. Not because he wants me for himself.
At least, that’s what I tell myself until one night changes it all. The BDSM club where he works puts on an auction once a month. I need money, and this is the fastest way to get some.
When I get up on stage, everything changes.
Because at the end of this night spent with him and another man, the boundaries around the friend-zone are shattered. I know what he tastes like and he’s seen my O face, and nothing will ever be the same again.
Lanie Carley learned early that life doesn't give breaks—it takes them. After losing her parents, she's built her world around two things: caring for her brother and burying the memory of the man who shattered her heart. Until fate deals her another cruel hand. Caught in a deadly mafia power play, Lanie discovers her past isn't just haunting her—it's hunting her. Jason Rathborn has everything money can buy, except the one thing he threw away years ago: Lanie. Now a sly informant for the mafia underworld, he's made enemies who know exactly where to strike—at the woman he never stopped loving. When their worlds violently collide again, Jason must prove he's worthy of a second chance. But with danger closing in and secrets threatening to destroy them both, protecting Lanie might mean letting her go. Again.
In a world where love and loyalty come with a body count, can a broken queen of hearts trust her king to protect her this time?
AJ In the world of marketing I had three goals: wow the client, get the promotion, and rub my success in my ex-husband's face. Unfortunately, I needed to travel to Los Angeles to make that happen, but a snowstorm had me grounded in Kamloops, British Columbia. The solution? Hire a driving service to take me to the Vancouver International Airport—four hours and one snowstorm away—where the skies are clear, and planes are taking off.
The problem? When calling the driving service, I mistyped and ended up with a tow truck.
Sam Big snowstorms mean big business for my company, Safe and Sound Towing. Twelve hours into my day with no end in sight, I arrived at the Kamloops Airport to find a patent leather heel tapping in my direction. Against my better judgement, I agreed to play taxi driver to a woman who is equal parts uptight and enticing. Can we survive the snowstorm and each other?
Willow I once faced evil…and lost. With the fate of my family—and our magic—suddenly in my hands, I vow to protect them no matter what. But the coven trials have claimed many witches, and vanquishing malevolent spirits, while hunting a possessed hellhound on a killing spree, is far more than I bargained for. Now the hellhound’s domineering alpha is shadowing me. More beast than man, Warrick both tempts and terrifies. Still, I can’t resist our overwhelming attraction and when a twisted enemy makes their move and I’m faced with an impossible choice, I need him more than ever. But fortune is fickle, and in a world full of monsters, falling in love can be hazardous to your health—and your heart.
Eternally a vampire, yet never the coveted bride. I am Burgundy Rosales—by night, a vampire dominatrix with the allure of the forbidden. By day, a solitary shadow adrift in a sea without love. Surrounded by friends wreathed in marital bliss, I stand alone, my undead heart aching with each bouquet caught. I plaster a smile, feigning joy, but a silent question haunts me—when will it be my turn? Hope had begun to wither, when an intriguing proposition presented itself. A new dancer at the club where I reign, asks me to guide her and her husband through a twilight of unspoken desire. A perfect diversion, or so it seemed. Yet what starts as an escape from the tendrils of my loneliness blooms into a yearning I cannot quell. How can I remain a mere spectator, craving the very connection they share? I refuse to be reduced to a mere accessory in their love story. But where is my path in this tangled web?
It only takes one night for the world to turn on its head...
Finishing my second degree was supposed to be a quiet time of wrapping up my academic work and maybe making a friend or two before everyone left town. That was before the monsters started attacking.
I've always ignored the strange occurrences that tend to happen around me, but now these creatures are hunting me, everything I touch is erupting into flame, and all I've got to help is a guy I barely know, his reclusive sister, an invitation to train with a secretive magical faction, and a strange necklace that apparently belongs to the magical world's most wanted...
I'm not used to trusting anyone, but as monsters close in, I don't think I ave a choice.
MORTALS GOT THE MYTHS ALL WRONG. OLYMPUS IS A FANTASY. TITANS ARE MERE STORIES. AND EROS? NOT THE GOD OF LOVE, BUT THE GODDESS OF MANIPULATION. Her arrows spark passion, then shatter hearts. She stalks, hunts, and twists desire for her own amusement. Humans are pawns in a cruel game of power and pleasure. Until she targets him. A gorgeous mortal with a razor-sharp tongue and the rare gift of seeing through the immortal veil, he can expose the gods for what they truly are. He's a threat to her survival, the one dangerous creature who could unravel the pantheon and condemn her realm. To protect the secrets of their immortality, the Dark Gods decree she must destroy this enemy or bind him to another. But the longer she is near him, the more she craves his possessive touch. With every stolen moment, temptation turns to obsession. If she isn’t careful, her arrow will slip. And she'll betray the gods, along with the one thing she swore to protect: her heart.
My brother stole everything from me. My family. My name. My future. For five years I’ve planned, waited. Now it’s my turn to take from him. Starting with his bride. Niall Hudson is the key to a treasure I’ve spent half a decade hunting down. Yeah, she’s a little upset to find herself a “guest” on my pirate ship. But the mouthy, curvy and beautiful shipping heiress is going to give me what I need…one way or another. This treasure will not only bring me and my crew riches beyond our wildest dreams, but it will restore all that has been stolen from me. But Niall isn’t submitting so easily. Even though my brother is hot on my trail, she’s playing games, issuing terms of her own. And she isn’t above turning the tables on me to get what she wants. Game on, little girl. Because I’ve decided I’m not satisfied with just her help. I want her. All of her. And I’m going to enjoy every second of conquering my brother’s woman. So will she.
In the fractured world of Sandric, energy is everything. The only way to rise is to obey. But Levity never asked to become a symbol of rebellion. Forced into The Sanctioning—a mind-twisting simulation designed to break her—she must endure horrors crafted from her worst fears to protect her family. Betta was once a believer. Now, after years as a Sanctioned leader trapped inside the regime's labyrinth of lies, she's ready to burn it all down. But exposing the truth could cost more than just her life; it could destroy the last hope for change. When their paths collide, two women—one a reluctant pawn, the other a disillusioned insider—will risk everything to dismantle the system built to control them.
Every year after harvest the weakest are removed from the encampment. None of them are ever seen or heard from again. Trinity’s only hope of escape lies in the forest. She’s not afraid of the creatures that live there. There’s nothing bigger than foxes in those woods, except this time something is different. This time she’s hunted from land and sea by predators that should only exist in legends. Surrounded by three enemies. Surrender is her only option, but which one should she choose?
