He placed one hand on the bed beside me, his gaze lingering on my face. “Do you know how to play?” I frowned. “Play what?” His lips curved into a slow smile. “Make them jealous too.” “Do you know how to fake a moan?” My heart started skipping. Lilian Williams has spent years trying to become someone worth loving. Behind her family's wealth and perfect surname is a girl who hates looking in the mirror, hides the scars on her face, and keeps giving everything she has to a boyfriend who makes her feel like she's never enough. Then Michael humiliates her in front of everyone. Desperate to save face, Lilian makes one reckless claim. Alex —the university's hockey captain and Michael's cousin—is chasing her. He isn't. But instead of exposing her lie, Alex agrees to play along. One week. One fake relationship. One chance to make Michael regret humiliating her. For Lilian, pretending to be Alex's girlfriend should be easy. Except Alex has his own problems. Between the pressure of being hockey captain, his rivalry with the Westbrook Ravens, and the expectations placed on him by the people who control his future, he has no time for a fake relationship. Yet somehow, Lilian becomes the one distraction he doesn't want to escape. As their staged romance pulls them deeper into university drama, hockey rivalries, and Fiona's growing interest in Alex, the line between pretending and falling becomes dangerously thin. Lilian only wanted to prove she could be wanted. Alex never expected to want her for real.

"I'm not going to touch you." My voice comes out rougher than I mean it to, thick with everything I'm holding back to say it steady. "Not unless you ask me to”.— "I might not have a choice much longer."—“You will," he says, though I can hear, underneath it, that he isn't entirely certain he believes it either. ___She hid what she was for ten years. His wolf found her in one night. Omegas don't get to choose. They're found, they're sold, they're claimed and Juni has spent her whole life making sure no one finds her first. Until Alpha Kieran Voss does. He doesn't bid on her. He doesn't claim her. He locks his door, stands guard, and lets her survive her first heat with nothing but water and distance. He is the first man who's ever given her a choice instead of taking one. She tells herself it's just the heat talking. She's wrong. His wolf recognized her the moment he was her and it was a bond so strong even his own pack has never seen its like. When he finally marks her to save her life, it doesn't calm the storm inside her. It wakes it up. Because Juni was never just running from a debt, or a cruel Alpha, or an auction block. She's the last of a bloodline the Moon Goddess marked generations ago — the reason the entire Selection system exists in the first place. And the men who buried that bloodline once will do anything to bury it again. He swore he'd never claim her without her choosing him first. He's about to learn that choosing him and surviving it might be two different things.

When Alex Kincaid first sees Melody Jansen, he knew he was going to have her but what happens when the next time he sees her, she’s roaming the streets of Vegas in a wedding dress?

Two years ago, a car explosion outside an expensive restaurant in Guadalajara left behind ash, and DNA evidence confirming the death of Xitllali De La Rosa. The world believed the submissive, quiet wife of the city’s most brutal mafia enforcer was gone forever. In reality, Xitllali planned her own death, and she fled into the misty highlands of Chiapas, changed her name, and started over. She opened a small floral shop and tried to build the quiet life she'd always wanted. For two years, it worked. Until the afternoon the bell above her shop door rings, and the ghost of her past steps inside. Guillermo, the husband she ran away from, came before her. She was expecting a bullet to the heart for abandoning the cartel, but she got really surprised when the most feared man in Mexico drops to one knee, slides a gun across the wooden counter, and lowers his head. He knew she faked her death. He let her run. And for twenty-four brutal months, he burned the entire underworld to the ground, slaughtering every person that wanted to hurt her. He didn't come back to kill her. He's here to ask for a second chance.

Aylin Lunaris was never meant to survive. Betrayed by her family and offered to the feared Lycan Kingdom as a sacrifice, the human girl expects only one thing when she arrives at the mountain fortress of Lupercal: death.

As enemies gather, secrets unravel, and a forbidden bond grows stronger, Aylin discovers a truth that shatters everything she thought she knew about herself. Because she isn't just a human girl. And she is not who she believes she is. In a world ruled by wolves, blood, and destiny, Aylin must uncover the truth of her origins before it destroys both her and the king she was never supposed to love.

Everyone knows Dahlia Gray as the sweetest girl they could ever meet. She's beautiful, intelligent, soft-spoken, and always knows exactly what to say. She helps people, smiles at strangers, and never seems to get angry. To everyone around her, Dahlia is simply perfect. But perfection can be dangerous. Behind her gentle smile is a mind that doesn't work like everyone else's. Dahlia doesn't feel guilt the way she should. She doesn't fear consequences. And when someone gets in her way, she knows exactly how to make them disappear without leaving a trace. Then she meets Max Holland. Max is observant, stubborn, and strangely immune to Dahlia's charm. Instead of falling for her innocent act, he starts noticing the little things—the coldness behind her eyes, the lies that don't quite add up, and the way she never seems afraid. Dahlia should stay away from him. Instead, she becomes fascinated. What starts as a harmless game slowly turns into something neither of them expected. Because Max is getting closer to discovering the truth, while Dahlia is beginning to feel something she's never understood before. And when love becomes tangled with obsession, secrets, and blood, one question remains: Can a monster truly fall in love, or will she destroy the only person who ever saw through her?

Six years ago, A doctor told me my newborn daughter didn't survive. I broke into a million pieces. I never truly healed. Desperate for cash, I take a job as a nanny for Alexander Vance-A billionaire whose six year old daughter, Jasmine, is infamous for terrorizing every nanny in the city. She hates me on sight. She locks me out, throws tantrums, and makes it her personal mission to drive me insane. I almost quit. But every time I look into her stubborn, fiery eyes, something pulls me back. Then came the accident. While cleaning a scrape on her knee after one of her stunts, my heart stops. On her inner ankle rests a distinct, crescent shaped birthmark. The exact birthmark my baby had before they declared her dead. My hands start shaking. My breath hitches. "Who gave you that mark?" I whisper, tears blurring my eyes. Jasmine glare at me, pulling her leg away. "Don't touch me! You're not my mom!" Alexander steps into the room, his blue eyes locking onto mine. "Is there a problem with my daughter?" I stare at the billionaire who has no idea his late wife stole my child. My baby didn't die six years ago. She's been living in this penthouse all along. And I will burn the world down before I lose her again.

Moving to Canmore was the last thing sixteen-year-old Dani Bergeron wanted. Forced to leave Toronto behind, she arrives in the quiet mountain town with nothing but unanswered questions about the family she's never known. Everyone seems to recognize her last name, yet no one will tell her why. Greyson Blackwood has problems of his own. As heir to one of Canmore's oldest families, he's spent his life living under impossible expectations. But when a single accidental touch with the town's newest girl turns his world upside down, he begins losing control of something far more dangerous than his temper. The closer Dani and Greyson get, the more impossible it becomes to ignore the strange pull between them. Ancient rivalries, long-buried secrets, and a curse that has haunted their families for generations threaten to tear them apart before they even understand what's happening. Some bonds are written by fate. The hardest part is choosing what to do with them.

I gave myself to a stranger in a penthouse, then ran before dawn. I thought I'd never see him again. Three days later, he walked into my lecture hall. Professor Xavier Carrington. Cold. Untouchable. A billionaire who owns half of Manhattan—and the secret of what we did. He pretends I don't exist. He treats me like air. But when my grandmother's café burns down and my bills drown me, he makes me an offer I can't refuse: a one-year contract marriage. Separate bedrooms, he says. No feelings, he promises. I sign because I have no choice. Now I live in his glass tower. I sleep down the hall from the man who took my innocence. He's ice to everyone else, but late at night, I catch him watching me. His hands shake when I get too close. He kisses me like he's drowning—then tells me he feels nothing. I don't believe him. Because there's something dark behind those cold grey eyes. Something he's buried so deep he thinks I'll never find it. And the closer I get to him, the more I realize his world isn't just cold—it's dangerous. But I have secrets too. I'm not just his contract wife. I'm gathering evidence to leave him—until I discover that his family's name is built on lies. And the truth I'm looking for might be the very thing that gets me killed. His obsession with me might be the only thing keeping me alive. He says it's just a contract. But the heart doesn't read fine print.
