During Christmas dinner, my mother-in-law hinted for the umpteenth time that she wanted a grandchild. However, my husband, Zachary Cole, who had insisted on staying child-free in the past decade, only smiled and filled her plate. After dinner, he slipped onto the balcony. "There, there. Daddy will come see you on New Year's Day," he whispered. I stood in the corner of the living room with a glass of water in my hand, feeling cold as the words sank in. I stepped forward and forced a playful tone. "I just heard you say 'Daddy.' Got a secret kid stashed somewhere?" He rubbed his nose, his voice stiff. "You must've misheard. That's… just a friend's kid." My heart sank. I'd been married to him for a decade, so I knew exactly what he looked like when he was lying.

Holly Moonjoy brings nothing but misfortune to everyone around her. Her dreams are harbingers of tragedy, and her scarred face is repulsive. Everyone in the Silverheart pack knows this. Not even an uncontrolled, bloodthirsty beast like the Alpha's eldest son would deserve a wife like her. Yet, that's exactly what he's getting. Her whole life, Holly has only dreamed of finding a place where she could be accepted, instead of hated. But when the pack's first prince is ambushed and loses his sight, going from being the strongest warrior among them to an outcast, the Alpha needs someone to be his wife. And Holly's parents are more than willing to put her in that position, even if it means dying at the hands of a man everyone fears. However, the more Holly gets to know her new, grumpy husband, the less she fears him. And if her cursed visions can somehow help him regain his position as the future Alpha, then she will help him, however dangerous it may be. And even though she knows that, when the time comes, not even an honorable wolf like Noah will stoop to staying with an ugly wife like her.

Cursed, mated, and in for the fight of their lives… Warlock Nate Hawthorne just wants a cup of coffee. Is that too much to ask? Apparently. Because instead of precious caffeine, all he gets is cursed by a pack of werewolves who want to use him for his magic. Now the only way to fix the damage is a mate bond to a grumpy and oh-so-sexy alpha in the rival pack, who happens to hate him. This is so not how he wanted to start his day. Ian Armitage never intended to take Nate as his mate. The Hawthorne family can’t be trusted. Ian knows that better than anyone. The fact that he’s lusted after the way-too-gorgeous man for years? Totally irrelevant. Ian’s just doing what is necessary to protect his pack. This whole mating arrangement has nothing to do with love and never will. That’s his story and he’s sticking to it. Nate and Ian will have to work together if they have any hope of staving off the pack’s enemies and averting disaster. That’s assuming they can stop arguing (and keep their hands off each other) long enough to save the day… The Alpha’s Warlock is an explicit M/M paranormal romance featuring a snarky warlock, a brooding alpha werewolf, knotting, enchanted socks (long story), and a guaranteed happily ever after. This series does not contain mpreg.

Ivory spent her whole life certain her childhood best friend Caden was her fated mate. When he bonds with someone else, she doesn't shatter — she simply goes hollow.

Crescent Ridge has changed. Her father has stepped down, replaced by Rhett — composed, strategic, and unsettlingly perceptive. He has no mate. And he's noticed her. Just as something real begins to form between them, a delegation arrives from a neighboring pack — carrying the truth about who the Moon Goddess actually chose for Ivory. It's the last person she'd want. And the one person Rhett would call an enemy.

Reed is the King’s Man, a hunter of rebels and master of avoiding emotional entanglements. He’s seen enough tragic mate bonds to know one thing: he wants no part of it. His plan? Reject his mate the second he meets her. Except his mate turns out to be Clarisse, an arrogant, clueless, detached human who doesn’t even know rejection is an option. All Clarisse wants is to figure out her past, not deal with a grumpy wolf shifter who keeps calling her “human” like it’s an insult. But when assassins come after her, she’s thrown headfirst into Reed’s world of secrets, fur, and fangs. As the bodies pile up and truths unravel, Reed discovers Clarisse is more than his mate. She’s a lost queen with a target on her back. Now Reed is forced to protect the mate he didn’t want, help her claim a throne she never asked for, and survive a conspiracy that’s way above his pay grade. All the while, they both try to resist the mate bond. Tropes: Shifters, crazy FL with no feelings, a little love triangle, witches, conspiracy, obsessed ML, a good amount of spice, and a happily ever after.

My boyfriend, Miles, finally invited me to his family’s Christmas dinner. I passed out on the way there. Half-conscious, I heard him whisper, “Sorry, Eva. Those thugs said you’re just their boss’s type. Too pretty for your own good, babe. Blame that—not me.” “Don’t be scared. If you help me pay off the debt… maybe they’ll let me have you back. I’ll make it up to you. For the rest of your life, I swear.” He wheeled me through the back of a casino. My family’s casino. The boss he was selling me to… was my brother. Ever since our parents died in a crossfire, my brother had taken full responsibility for me. More than a brother, he’d become a father figure—a protector. My stupid boyfriend should be scared—he had no idea how fiercely my brother protected me, or how ruthless he could be to anyone who dared hurt me.

Now, locked in a world of danger, secrets, and a very grumpy, dangerously handsome boss, Serenia realizes she didn't just sign up for childcare... She signed up for the mafia.
