As a chimera shifter whose chimera won't actually let him, well, shift, Levi has always been an outsider. He'll never be able to fully take part in chimera society, and he can kiss his romantic prospects goodbye. Unsurprisingly, the holiday season isn't his favorite time of year. To top it all off, his great aunt has run off with her new man, leaving her old bookshop in Levi's inexperienced hands. Trying to work out how to close down a bookshop that he wants nothing to do with is his idea of a bad time, but on the other hand, it does mean he has an excuse to skip the family Christmas.

The moment I lay eyes on Valentina Ferraro, I know I have to have her. There’s just one teeny problem—her husband. So, I do what any red-blooded, possessed made man would do and I proposition him. Five million dollars for one weekend with his beautiful young wife. He agrees, like I knew he would, because he needs the money and he wants his secrets kept hidden from Don D’Onofrio. Valentina is livid, but I like my women stubborn and fiery and the more she resists, the more I crave her. One taste of those lush lips is all it takes to seal my fate. I’m not giving her back.

Three standalone and duet narrated stories. One world ruled by power, fate, and impossible bonds. Welcome to Immortal Vices and Virtues—a world where supernaturals reign, power is currency, and fate is rarely kind. This omnibus collection brings together three complete, standalone fantasy paranormal romances set within the shared Immortal Vices and Virtues universe. Each story follows a different heroine forced to confront hidden truths, dangerous legacies, and fated mates they never asked for, but can’t escape.

For twenty-one years, I've been the Morvoren family secret—the female twin vampire no one could know existed. Too rare. Too valuable. Too vulnerable. While my brother built his reputation at SilverGate Academy, I studied behind enchanted walls, a shadow student of a world I couldn't join. Until now. For reasons my family won't tell me, I'm finally free. Safe to be part of the world. But it's hard to be excited when your academy bedroom comes with a resident ghost, you're not the only new supe at the Academy, and your brother's hot friend has more secrets floating around than the family crypt.

My magic is evolving, unpredictable, and wild. What once exhausted me now flows through my veins like an addiction. Ancient texts whisper of vampires like me. They don't mention the hunger that comes with the power, or that being hunted is my new normal. Silvergate Academy isn't what we thought. The professors track my progress too meticulously. Record every surge of my abilities too carefully. Beneath the academy lies a sanctuary of ancient magic and even older secrets. My family didn't hide me for twenty-one years out of love. They hid me out of fear.

He gave me everything I wanted, right down to the sparkly pearl necklace and the wild, crazy ride on his North Pole, but this sexy Santa has a dark secret. For years, he's been watching me while I sleep, and he knows how much I can take. I always thought Santa was about spreading joy at Christmas, but I couldn't have been more wrong. This filthy Santa prefers to spread something else, and as long as he's willing to give, I'm more than happy to take.

I thought killing the head of the mage council would finally give me a sliver of peace. Instead, it cost me everything: my safety, my sanity, and the man I love. While we race to find a way to save Archer, Lua is preparing to destroy the world's magic. If she succeeds, Earth will die, and the universe will follow. To stop her, I'll need every ounce of my volatile magic, the strength of my found family, and the courage to risk everything. Draining her magic might not be enough. I might have to take her soul.

One night out with my friends and everything changes. I was just supposed to let loose and forget about my miserable life for a few hours. Instead, I find myself hunted by masked men, powerful warlocks who crave me for reasons I don't yet understand. Each one represents a different fate—none of them good. Now, I'm the prize in their twisted game, and they'll stop at nothing to claim me. But I'm not the helpless prey they think I am. As their powers weaken with the waning moon, mine are growing. And I'm learning—fast.

My name is Isabel Gallagher, and I have a secret. I can see ghosts. If anyone discovers my ability, everyone I care about will be killed. To keep my secret, I have to pretend to be magicless. Since mages value power above all else, I'm the town of Hawthorne Grove's favorite punching bag. I only have a year left here. Then, I can move away to a normal human town and forget that other mages exist. My five-year plan of staying alive and remaining undetected is on track. Until one night at the gym, I met them.

When I found an injured wolf outside the Witches' Brew, I couldn't leave him to suffer alone. Taking him home, I nursed him back to health. Little did I know he was actually a wolf shifter, investigating a series of unusual activities happening outside of Pleasant Grove. I thought I was done with romance, but as I get to know the man behind the wolf, my heart slowly starts to open again. The looks of longing and the sizzling connection between us can't be denied, and the longer he stays with me, the more I start hoping for things I know I shouldn't.

Heartbroken and betrayed, I fled the faerie court only to be dragged back by my captor, a dark Fae Prince. I should have never made a deal with Ruskin. He's used me before. Now, he needs me again. The Queen has been doomed to eternal sleep. And I alone can break the spell. Once she wakes, my work should be done. I can leave and force myself to forget the handsome prince and his brutal yet beautiful court. Queen Evanthe's return was meant to heal the land, but she's too weak.

The truth about Silvergate burns like enchanted silver against vampire skin. My blood holds the key to something so valuable that ancient powers would sacrifice anything to possess it. Even me. But my power was never meant to be a weapon. It was meant to be a sanctuary. As rival forces converge on what I've become, I realize the true nature of defence isn't about walls or shields or protection spells. It's about deciding who deserves to survive—and who doesn't.

Eleanor needs Ruskin—the darkly magnetic fae prince she’s bound to—more than ever. But Ruskin is gone, trapped in the deadly space between realms. When Eleanor finally rescues him, the man she loves is a stranger, his memories erased and his trust shattered. There’s no time to rebuild what they’ve lost. In the human realm, Eleanor’s father is held captive by a ruthless king, while in Faerie, Ruskin’s mother, Evanthe, threatens to plunge the Seelie Court into chaos.

My neighbor believes in Christmas magic. That's because someone takes out her trash, does her dishes and laundry, clears snow from her driveway, and puts up Christmas decorations in her house. She has no idea it's me, her stalker neighbor who watches her every move. Seeing only the good around her, she fails to notice that I also steal her panties and curtains. She doesn't know I'm in her bedroom every night. What I do is for her protection as much as for my pleasure. Emma loves to help, often bringing sick or lost animals into her home.

My secret's out. The mage council knows about my forbidden magic, and they plan to make an example out of me and everyone who knows the truth. Everything I feared for so many years is coming true. Running from my power didn't protect my secret or those I care about. So, I have to embrace my magic and all the death and destruction it leaves in its wake. The only way to evade the council is by working together with my mates as we travel to another realm.

When my boyfriend Cole invited me to celebrate Christmas at his stepdad's cabin, nothing could have prepared me for what would happen next. Griffin's nothing like I pictured. Instead of a typical middle-aged man, I'm faced with broad shoulders, a muscular chest, and a jawline sharp enough to kill. Spine-tingling grazes and heated glances that last too long have me feeling guilty about how my body's reacting. That is until my boyfriend asks to share me with his stepdad.

One million dollars in exchange for a year of secrets, passion, and danger. Constantino, New York’s most sinister mafia boss, and his wife Laila promised me trips on private jets across the Italian coastline, life in luxurious skyrises that overlooked the city, and the intoxicating nights in their bed.

Desdemona Althenia has spent her life in the shadows, hiding volatile magic that could kill her if unleashed. Born into the lowest ranks of society, she's survived by her wits—and her willingness to lie. But when fate traps her within the brutal walls of Visnatus Academy, power is finally within reach. Prince Lucian Aibek lives beneath the weight of a crumbling empire and a family that thrives on control. Desdemona's fire may be his freedom—or his downfall.

I had a plan, then fate laughed in my face. Three years ago, I was banished from my home for protecting my family. I’ve had to learn to survive on my own, while also heeding my mother’s warnings. “Never let anyone know who you truly are.” Which proves almost too easy for me to do until my fated mate stumbles out of a newly opened portal.

Desperate, angry, and unable to heal, Adriana hits rock bottom and is forced to seek help for the sake of her son. What she doesn’t expect is a friendship from an unlikely source—Julian Baker, her best friend’s ex-fiancé. Julian is every bit the man she isn’t expecting to walk into her life. Intelligent, witty, and extremely handsome. Their unique friendship soon turns into a forbidden relationship. As lovers, they form a bond that must remain hidden from their family and friends, but secrets can only be kept for so long.
