What in the actual…? Why is my baby daddy at my workplace? Up there on a dais in front of everyone and—Wait, no, he bought the damn company? So it happened years ago. A stupid one-night stand that was supposed to be a life experience, not dictate the rest of my life. But, hey, I love my twins. They’re the center of my world and what we have works. It does until their father, Jamison Dawes, suddenly decides he wants to be a present parent. My kids are ecstatic. Can’t say I feel the same.

Romeo: fictional, someone who can fall in love with his whole heart, without a shred of doubt. The thing about fictional characters is just that; they’re not real. That kind of love doesn’t exist outside of the pages of books. At least, that’s what I thought… Until I saw her. And it was like getting shot, like taking a led bullet straight to the heart. It hurt, burned deep in my soul. She isn’t the Juliet to my Romeo. Because she doesn’t simply come from an opposing house.

Alexei Nikolaev. Blessed with the face of Adonis. Cursed with eyes colder than the arctic, and a past he can’t escape. His history is as tragic as a Dostoyevsky tale. He’s been on the FBI’s radar for years, but has managed to always stay a step ahead and just out of their grasp.

I thought I knew evil. I thought I knew love. But here, locked within the rotting walls of an abandoned manor, something much darker unfurls—something that makes my previous life seem like a childhood fairy tale. Morgan, Rio, Xavier. Each one a jagged puzzle piece that somehow fits perfectly into my shattered life. Rossi. The man I can't figure out, yet the one who holds the key to the riddle that surrounds us all. In this house, every whisper becomes a scream, every touch leaves a burn. We share secrets, tangled sheets, and rituals too dangerous to utter aloud.

Everything was perfect until it wasn’t. Nobody warns you that it can all be taken away in the blink of an eye. Now my life revolves around working two part-time jobs to make ends meet while taking care of my daughter alone. Ensuring she doesn’t drown in my grief. When Graycee asks to play hockey, I scrape and save enough to sign her up for the local youth league. The smile on her face as she steps out onto the ice makes every sacrifice worth it.

Hunter: I have a secret. One that will change everything. I made a deal, one I won't back out of. Only time has run out, and they will all know soon enough. Jace: She forgave me…but it’s not as simple as “I’m sorry.” I’m used to saying those words, and all is forgiven. But this is Mila Hart… nothing's ever gonna be easy with her. And I wouldn’t have it any other way. Roman: I made a mess of my life before she came back, and it follows me still. Only now, I’m not alone in fighting my demons, and I have something worth fighting for.

Oh, who’s even surprised? I spilled my drink on his fancy chinos, yes. They call it an accident for a reason. Is it happenstance or fate? This guy’s new to the area. He and his boyfriend just moved in across the street from my coffee place. Well, not my coffee place, I don’t own it or anything. I just go there every day. Now Alex does too. I wasn’t in the market for a new BFF, but Alex is attentive, smart, the kind of guy any woman would want in her life. Yes, he also happens to be yummy hot. Just my luck he’s… Except it’s not true.

Brooke Bartlett is no exception. She’s been in love with her brother’s best friend for half her life, her dirty little secret. With Luca on the other side of the world, the temptation stayed out of reach, but now he’s back, and he’s not the only one. Brooke’s stalker is watching from the shadows, and he’s got his own ideas about her future…

Two wrongs don’t make a right. That’s what they say. In my defense, my suggestion he adopt a fake fiancée wasn’t me volunteering for the role. I only went up there to apologize, how did I walk away engaged to the CEO? I have a coach to get me through it. A woman who knows what it is to be involved with a man in my boss’s league. Her first and most crucial piece of advice? Don’t fall for him. Easy. At least, that’s what I think until he kisses me. All we’re supposed to do is convince his ex she has no chance of winning him back.

Three brides have been chosen for my pleasure and displeasure. One of them will become a King’s consort; the others will be discarded. Until my decision is made, I get to feast on them all. They are mine. After the demise of my uncle, the O’Sullivan family has yet to choose the new Don. With two brothers and a vengeful, unhinged cousin also vying for the position, tension is rising in an already dangerous business.

I despised Nikolai Antonov. It didn't matter that he was drop-dead gorgeous, rich beyond comprehension, and totally obsessed with me. His rock-solid abs and lustful banter weren't going to convince me to crawl into bed with him. Even when agreed to help rescue my cousin who was kidnapped by the Cartel, my opinion of him didn't budge. He was toxic, and I wanted absolutely nothing to do with him… Until I got pregnant with his baby.

The trip to Zairn’s island resort is exactly the breather I need. Five-star, all expenses paid, I can clear my head and focus on my true goal. I want to find the one. You know? The One. I’m not looking for him in the Bahamas. At least not until Toria signs us up for a singles program: Love In Paradise. Dates, group events, single men, single women, it’s worth a shot, right? So what the hell is he doing here? He’s not on the program, he’s just… here.

When Aiden King asked me out four years ago, I went from mousy librarian to wife of the most wanted bachelor in Montana in four months flat. No longer the nerdy girl from the wrong side of the tracks, I was a CFO’s wife in a mansion by the river—and my husband was the man of my dreams. I almost couldn’t believe my good fortune. Turns out, I shouldn’t have believed it.

I’m obsessed with my deviant desires and only one thing can bring me satisfaction—Caterpillar. Whether by luck or misfortune, he can be bought. I only need to make a deal with Cheshire...and his deals have the tendency to go sideways.

My name is Violet, and I am crazy. Schizophrenic, to be exact. I see creatures no one else does. Even with medication, there's no escaping the insanity, so I lie and say I don't see them. Until one night, my hot-as-sin customer is one of these said creatures and tries to skip on the bill. Instead of being a hero for stopping a crime, I get fired. I should've kept my mouth shut because now my customer is stalking me. I should've called the cops, except he tells me the one thing I'm desperate to hear—you're not crazy.

They call me perfect. Bred to be a beautiful and docile porcelain doll. And I can play that role for as long as I need. One day, I'll run away with Azarel, the only alpha I've ever trusted. The only alpha I've ever loved. But there's a problem with porcelain. It fractures. And this pack of alphas that's assembling around me—the new Ghost Alpha Unit—might be what finally shatters me completely.

It had to be said that I didn't much care for the Devil. Especially when he tried to use me to control the Beast. But this was his mistake. As such, I had been granted early release, and as for the Beast… he was not happy. So now Hell had a problem. A big one. One named Abaddon who was currently tearing Hell apart trying to find me. Which meant I now had a choice to make. Let the Beast destroy all the realms or find myself a date.

When the goddess Artemisen chooses Soli Graymind―a nobody from the lowest caste who suffers from chronic depression―to lead one last desperate quest, the world laughs. But Soli won't be alone.

Max and his five attractive, female co-workers boarded the plane for Sheridan, Wyoming, and then things went sideways.
